Plain carbon steel rebars continue to be the standard for residential and low-rise commercial buildings in many of these regions because of their proven performance and low cost.

Commonly made from carbon steel, rebars come in various types, such as deformed bars with surface ribs for better grip and plain bars for limited-use cases.

Steel rebars, or reinforcing bars, are high-strength steel rods used to reinforce and strengthen concrete structures. They provide tensile strength to concrete, which is inherently strong in ...

In the present work, the role of the starting point microstructures - in this case tempered martensite microstructures, plastic deformation, intercritical temperatures and soaking time on the ...

The microstructure (pore structure and microcrystal structure) plays a crucial role in determining the capacity, especially the plateau capacity of hard carbon (HC) anodes for sodium-ion batteries ...
