Abstract: Abstract Prior work to characterize the hydration products in a cement paste prepared with a sodium nitrite-based antifreeze admixture that effectively promoted hydration at subfreezing temperatures did not reveal anything unusual in the chemical composition,… read more here.

Abstract: Dormant compound buds of grapevines adapt to subfreezing temperatures through a freezing avoidance mechanism. One still-unclear question, however, is whether supercooled water in primordial cells of dormant grape buds are partially dehydrated under subfreezing temperatures.… read more here.
