U.S.-Thailand Cooperative Research: Rice Husk Ash-Modified Concrete in the Marine Environment

[424486]这是佛罗里达大西洋大学的Dr. V. Reddy博士和泰国朱拉隆功大学的Ekasit Limsuwan教授之间的一个美泰合作研究项目，目的是研究谷壳灰分改性混凝土在海洋环境中的腐蚀行为。美国和泰国的主要研究人员都是这方面的专家。本文首次系统地研究了稻壳灰改性混凝土在海洋环境中的腐蚀行为。这项研究的成功可以更好地利用稻壳这种经常被浪费的非常古老的材料，作为一种新的建筑资源。这项研究可能带来的进步可以使许多沿海社区和东南亚国家受益。该研究项目将由美国国家科学基金会和泰国国家科学技术发展局共同资助。

0424486ReddyThis is a U.S.-Thailand cooperative research project between Dr. D. V. Reddy, Florida Atlantic University and Professor Ekasit Limsuwan, Chulalongkorn University, Thailand, to study the corrosion behavior of rice husk ash-modified concrete in the marine environment. Both U.S. and Thai principal investigators are experts in this area of research. This is the first systematic study of corrosive behavior of rice husk ash-modified concrete in the marine environment. The success of this study can lead to better utilization of a very old material, rice husk, which has often been wasted, as a new building resource. The advances that may result from this study can benefit many coastal communities and South East Asia countries. This research project will be jointly supported by the NSF and the National Science and Technology Development Agency of Thailand.
