    • Controllable hydrophobization of sands with self-healing polymeric microcapsules 

      Qi, Rui; Lin, Hongjie; Lourenco, Sergio; Kanellopoulos, Antonios (2024-05-18)
      Hydrophobized soils have functional hydrophobic coatings to delay or restrict water infiltration and thus prevent infrastructure failure and long-term degradation. Over time, hydrophobized soils will be subjected to ...

    • Shear strength recovery of sand with self-healing polymeric capsules 

      Qi, Rui; Chen, Ke; Lin, Hongjie; Kanellopoulos, Antonios; Deyun, Liu; Leung, Anthony Kwan; Lourenço, Sérgio D. N. (2024-03-23)
      Self-healing approaches are increasingly being explored in various fields as a potential method to recover damaged material properties. By self-recovering without external intervention, self-healing techniques emerge as a ...
