Abstract:Concrete is used globally due to its useful mechanical and durability properties. However, concrete requires a massive amount of cement, which is the second-largest source of carbon emission (5–7% of global CO2 emissions) due to its high energy consumption. The gelatinization effect of corn starch as a binder has been explored in the place of cement in concrete. However, there is a need to optimize the various processing conditions to enhance the material strength of the corn starch-based material known as CoR… Show more
