Moisture-blocking durable cement
Moisture-blocking durable cement
Idea Description
Cement applications for concrete structures are indispensable for construction of infrastructures. But the inherent universal problem of localized instability leading to break-up in concrete mass remains a serious and costly problem. Concrete structures develop open voids during the dehydration process. These voids retain water and further moisture uptake takes place during use. A simple mechanism called moisture attack creates crack formation and break-up. A patent (#6797052)has been secured for an additive that forms an adduct during cement mixing that fills the voids, ensuring complete blockage of any moisture ingress.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
This invention offers a solid business opportunity and solve an economic and infrastructure problem at the same time. The additive can be marketed for point-of-use applications by construction and transportation authorities as well as for reparing and patching work by consumers.
An organization is in place for developing the business, but it requires infusion of cash and marketing expertise. ADVANTA inspired IDEABLOB might be able to help.
