Recently, the All-Russian Institute of Aeronautical Materials has developed a new carbon-plastic repair material that can solve the problems of bridges, tunnels, and warehouses made of reinforced concrete, and will reduce the load-bearing capacity after natural wear, effectively improving the building. The load-bearing and prolong its service life.

According to the Russian "Science and Life" magazine, researchers have developed a new type of carbon-plastic material based on the wing reinforcement materials of the "Su" series fighter planes. The main components are 60% carbon fiber and 40% polymeric epoxy adhesive. When used, the epoxy-containing gel-like material needs to be applied to the surface of the building and the gap, and the thickness of the coating is only a few millimeters. Afterwards, the colloidal carbon plastic material will quickly harden and adhere to the concrete tightly. Its load-bearing capacity can be increased by more than 50%, and its service life can be extended by 30 years. In response to the characteristics of various types of buildings, researchers have developed a series of various carbon-plastic repair materials, some of which can be used to reinforce large-scale facilities for underwater construction and storage of chemical raw materials.
