“…One possible solution to this problem is to provide road surfaces or associated concrete components with self-illuminating properties by integrating built-in illumination devices or luminescent materials. This approach not only has the potential to save energy and reduce environmental light pollution but also to solve problems such as uneven illumination and glare associated with conventional streetlights [165]. Developed countries, including Germany, the United States and France, have already begun researching and developing self-luminous pavements [166].…”

The article presents the progress and applications of ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC), a revolutionary material in modern construction that offers unparalleled strength, durability, and sustainability. The overview includes the historical development of UHPC, covering its production and design aspects, including composition and design methodology. It describes the mechanical properties and durability of UHPC and highlights recent innovations and research breakthroughs. The potential integration of multifunctional properties such as self-heating, self-sensing, self-luminescence and superhydrophobicity, is explored. In addition, advances in nanotechnology related to UHPC are addressed. Beyond the actual material properties, the article presents an environmental impact assessment and a life-cycle cost analysis, providing an insight into the wider implications of using UHPC. To illustrate the environmental aspects, the determination of CO2 emissions is explained using three numerical examples. Finally, various applications of UHPC are presented, focusing on the construction of buildings and bridges. By synthesizing the above-mentioned aspects, this review paper captures the dynamic landscape of UHPC and serves as a valuable resource for researchers and engineers in the field of construction materials.

“…At present, the research on energy storage self-luminous pavement mainly focuses on cement concrete [64], and rarely in asphalt concrete, mainly because the black asphalt would cause the light emitted by fluorescence to be blocked [65,66]. Recently, the research introduced a kind of selfluminous concrete prepared by transparent asphalt with good luminous properties [67], and the development of transparent asphalt provided a method for self-luminous asphalt concrete.…”

Road markings regulate and direct traffic by conveying specific information. It is of great significance to develop new road marking materials and improve the visibility of marking materials for improving traffic efficiency and ensuring traffic safety. This paper summarized the development status of various reflective road markings at home and abroad. In addition, the energy storage luminescent fluorescent/phosphor marking lines in road marking was emphatically generalized to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of different improvement methods. Overall, strontium aluminate doped with Eu2+ co-doped with Dy3+ (SrAl2O4:Eu2+, Dy3+) phosphors and self-luminous pavement for energy storage had great prospects in improving road safety and reducing energy consumption.

“…Incorporating self-illumination properties into concrete structural components by integrating built-in illumination devices or luminescent materials presents a potential solution. This approach not only has the capacity to conserve energy and minimize ecological light pollution, but also to address challenges associated with the uneven illumination and glare often induced by conventional streetlamps [25]. Advanced economies, including Germany, the United States, and France, have initiated research and development endeavors in the realm of self-illuminating concretes [26].…”

This study explores the potential of using basalt reinforced UHPC by incorporating simultaneously self-cleaning and self-luminescent features, paving the way for sustainable advancements in civil engineering. New green formulations of UHPC were developed by integrating supplementary cementitious materials and optimizing water to the binder ratio, followed by using basalt fibers to enhance strength and ductility. The fabricated samples with high particle-packing density exhibit sufficient workability and compressive strength up to 136 MPa, and, when incorporating basalt fibers, a notable reduction in brittleness. The inner microstructure of basalt fibers was observed to be smooth, homogeneously distributed, and well adhered to the UHPC matrix. To ensure the desired long-lasting visual appearance of decorative UHPC and reduce future maintenance costs, a time-effective strategy for creating a light-emitting biomimetic surface design was introduced. The samples exhibit high surface roughness, characterized by micro to nano-scale voids, displaying superhydrophobicity with contact angles reaching up to 155.45°. This is accompanied by roll-off angles decreasing to 7.1°, highlighting their self-cleaning features. The self-luminescence feature showcased intense initial light emission, offering a potential energy-efficient nighttime lighting solution.
