(author)GARField 1H NMR relaxometry experiments were done to study the drying process of two latices with different polymer Tg and to elucidate water mobility behavior during this process. It was found that the hard type latex, with a polymer Tg above room temperature, dries faster than the soft type latex, with a polymer Tg below room temperature....article 2018

Polder, R. (author), Peelen, W. (author)This paper presents an overview of 30 years' experience with cathodic protection of steel in concrete in The Netherlands. Principles and practical aspects of CP and its design and installation are presented. Three phases have passed from the late 1980s until present: pioneering, development and maturity. In the first period CP was mainly applied...conference paper 2018

(author)Titania (TiO2) offers a high theoretical capacity of 336 mAh g-1 with the insertion of one Li per Ti unit. Unfortunately, the poor ionic and electronic conductivity of bulk TiO2 electrodes limits its practical implementation. Nanosizing titania below ∼20 nm has shown to increase the rate performance and accessible capacity but still not more...article 2017

van Breugel, K. (author), Polder, R.B. (author), de Rooij, M.R. (author)For many concrete infrastructural works a service life of 80, 100 or 200 years is required. To convince owners and authorities that these requirements can be met probability-based models for service life predictions have been developed. These models are based on theoretical and experimental laboratory studies. Many of these models focus on the...conference paper 2017

Fokker, P.A. (author), Visser, J. (author)We report a field study on solution mining of magnesium chloride from bischofite layers in the Netherlands at depths between 1500 and 1850 m. Subsidence that was observed in the area is due to part of the brine production being realized by cavern squeeze; some of which were connccted. Wc used an earlier developed inversion scheme to quantify the...conference paper 2014
