Physical-Chemical Behavior and Durability of Materials
![](https://www.dim-materre.fr/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/IMG_materiaux_CPDM-1.jpg)
The laboratory’s field of competence is the chemistry and physicochemistry of construction materials. Their behavior at an early age and over time is studied for materials of different natures: cements, concretes, low-carbon concretes, polymers, composites, bitumens, biobased materials…
The themes treated in connection with MaTerRe are :
– cementitious binders with low environmental impact, from their formulation to their durability
– rheology of cementitious materials,
– biosourced materials for building and transport,
– virgin or recycled polymers and composites,
– bio-deterioration and bio-precipitation mechanisms.
