The corrosion of steel in concrete is mainly due to the chemical reaction between the chloride ions and iron ions. Indeed, this is a serious threaten for reinforced concrete structure, especially for the reinforced concrete structure in the sea. So it is urgent and important to protect concrete against chloride ions corrosion. In this work, we report multilayer concrete can cloak chloride ions....

Context. Magnetic fields are proposed to play an important role in the formation and support of self-gravitating clouds and the formation and evolution of protostars in such clouds. Aims. We attempt to understand more precisely how the Pipe nebula is affected by the magnetic field. Methods. We use R-band linear polarimetry collected for about 12 000 stars in 46 fields with lines of sight toward...
