TIS & Partners develops “CO2 Structure”

TIS & Partners develops “CO2 Structure”

TIS&Partners has developed a construction material called CO2 Structure, which hardens quickly and delivers 2.5 times the tensile strength of concrete. “When CO2 is blown into silica, it instantly converts the silica into a material as hard as brick. And a brick can be formed in a little less than a minute. That's what's special about this material. However, bricks break easily. To achieve sufficient strength, so the structural material can be stretched and bent without incorporating steel rods, it needs to be combined with an organic material, such as epoxy or urethane.
