Magnetite. An ore of iron which is used in making steel, nails, kitchen appliances, furniture, tools, bridges, buildings, automobiles, construction equipment, manufacturing machinery, highway construction, shipbuilding, trains, railroads etc. Picture what life would be like without steel! Powdered iron is used in magnets; high-frequency cores ...

1. Introduction. Due to the wide utilization of nuclear technology for different purposes in industry and medical uses, shielding against these hazardous radiations which have harmful environmental impacts seems necessary (Singh et al., 2004; Salinas et al., 2006; Akkurt et al., 2010).Because of appropriate structural properties, concrete is …

improve the microstructure of cement and the interface between the cement paste and aggregates in concrete. Ginebra et al. [9] reported that the particle size can greatly affect the hydration kinetics of cement. Their findings indicate that a reduction in particle size can lead to a more rapid setting and hardening of cement due to stronger

Abstract. The incorporation of strong magnetic powders (NdFeB) into cement mixtures has produced improved mechanical properties of cement pastes. The magnetic cement (cementitious magnet) used a ...
