“…Small-particle-size CB has a positive influence on the polymer photostability [252,253]. UV absorption increases until a size of 20 nm is reached, with a further decrease in particle size leading to levelling off of absorption [254,255]. Good dispersion and dilution quality are also essential for maintaining photostability [252,255].…”

“…Good dispersion and dilution quality are also essential for maintaining photostability [252,255]. Poor dispersion results in larger agglomerates, which have a tendency to scatter UV light rather than absorb it [254,255]. Higher loadings of CB offer a greater degree of UV protection, but only up to the level of opacity.…”

“…give better protection to polymers [273]. In addition, volatiles on the surfaces of CB particles consist of a complex mixture of chemisorbed, oxygenated groups that may also be chromophores, that also contribute to UV absorption [254]. However, a high volatile content might adversely affect the photostability of polymers [253].…”

“…surface [344,345], which might account for the oxidation stabilization ability of CB (while channel black has more functional groups on its surface than furnace black [224]). The additional UV protection may be ascribed to the volatiles on CB, which consist of a complex mixture of chemisorbed, oxygenated groups [254,345,346]. These groups tend to act as radical scavengers, inhibiting any chain reactions caused by UV radiation [254,255].…”

Activated carbon-based capacitive deionization (CDI) electrodes have been coated with gold nanoparticles through a facile impregnation method. Activated carbon (AC) in the original and nitric acid treated form had been used. Au addition, irrespective of AC being acid treated or not, increases the salt adsorption capacity (SAC), increases charge efficiency and reduces specific energy consumption (SEC) in the CDI process. While applying both acid treatment and gold deposition result in maximum SAC (6.1 mg g−1), sole gold decoration is accompanied with least SEC (0.7 KWh (kg adsorbed ion)−1). Interestingly, gold addition significantly reduces cathodic reduction and anodic oxidation reactions in the case of untreated and treated AC, respectively. A theoretical explanation has been proposed.

Given the challenges we face of an ageing infrastructure and insufficient maintenance, there is a critical shift towards preventive and predictive maintenance in construction. Self-sensing cement-based materials have drawn interest in this sector due to their high monitoring performance and durability compared to electronic sensors. While bulk applications have been well-discussed within this field, several challenges exist in their implementation for practical applications, such as poor workability and high manufacturing costs at larger volumes. This paper discusses the development of smart carbon-based cementitious coatings for strain monitoring of concrete substrates under flexural loading. This work presents a physical, electrical, and electromechanical investigation of sensing coatings with varying carbon black (CB) concentrations along with the geometric optimisation of the sensor design. The optimal strain-sensing performance, 55.5 ± 2.7, was obtained for coatings with 2 wt% of conductive filler, 3 mm thickness, and a gauge length of 60 mm. The results demonstrate the potential of applying smart coatings with carbon black addition for concrete strain monitoring.
