Abstract
[A] curable mixture configured to set in the presence of water, wherein the mixture comprises magnesium oxide, a primary cementitious component and at least one accelerant and at least one second accelerant, the at least one second accelerant is different than the at least one first accelerant, wherein a proportion by weight of the at least one second accelerant is equal to or less than 2% of a proportion of magnesium oxide by weight of the mixture. A proportion by weight of the primary cementitious component is 80% to 120% of a proportion of magnesium oxide by weight.
Claims18
A method for reducing carbon dioxide emissions comprising a curable mixture configured to absorb and prevent the emission of carbon dioxide, the mixture comprising:
- (a) magnesium oxide;
- (b) water;
- (c) a primary cementitious component;
- (d) at least one first accelerant, wherein the at least one first accelerant comprises at least one of the following:
- magnesium chloride, magnesium nitrate, and magnesium sulfate;
- and
- (e) at least one second accelerant, wherein the at least one second accelerant is different than the at least one first accelerant, wherein a proportion by weight of the at least one second accelerant is equal to or less than 2% of a proportion of magnesium oxide by weight of the mixture;
- wherein a proportion by weight of the primary cementitious component is 80% to 120% of the proportion of magnesium oxide by weight of the mixture;
- wherein a sum of the proportions of magnesium oxide and the primary cementitious component comprises at least 15% by weight of the mixture;
- and
- wherein the mixture does not include Portland cement.
