Freeze–thaw durability and service-life prediction of PBO and carbon UHP-FRCM systems

Commercial fiber–reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems suffer from early matrix cracking, permeability, and fabric–matrix debonding. Novel ultra–high–performance (UHP) cementitious matrices were developed and incorporated into polyparaphenylene benzobisoxazole (PBO) and c...
