Functional Vibro Pressed Pavement with Ecological Benefits

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper describes results of functional tests of photo catalytic materials directly in matrix of prefabricated vibro pressed pavement blocks. Resulting surfaces of photo catalytic concrete products were tested with respect to conversion of NOx and surface was analyzed with Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), so called element maps were elaborated by means of Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS).
