On the same day, the Council of the Scientific Discipline of Civil Engineering, Geodesy and Transport of Lublin University of Technology awarded him the doctor of engineering and technical sciences degree, at the same time
This time, members of the MSAGroup team analyzed the effect of mesoporous silica with an MCM-41 type structure on the thermal resistance of cement pastes. A key aspect of the research was tracking the transformation process of air pore structures under thermal load and modeling these changes. The results indicate that the use of this
Full of enthusiasm for work, we start 2025 – but it’s also a great time to take stock of what we’ve achieved in 2024. Members of the MSAGroup team: – published 30 articles in JCR-listed journals, – obtained protection rights from the Patent Office of the Republic of Poland for 6 inventions, 17 more inventions
Large amounts of de-icing salts in the form of NaCl, CaCl2 and MgCl2 are used every year to remove ice and snow from road surfaces. Recent research clearly shows that the resulting salt solution changes the chemical structure of bitumen, leading to a loss of service properties of road surfaces and consequently a shortening of
We are proud to announce the launch of an innovative research project in collaboration with the Medical University of Lublin, funded under the 27th edition of the OPUS program by the National Science Centre Poland! The project, titled ” Multifunctional cold plasma- and magnetic field-activated hydrogel dressing material based on magnetite-clay mineral complex for personalized
