Rock fracturing using expansive mortar by Lim, Xuan Ni

“…Expansive mortar, identified as a soundless chemical demolition agent (SCDA), provides a safe and efficient alternative to explosives, applicable in tasks such as concrete structure removal, surface rock breaking and underground excavation. Primarily composed of calcium oxide (CaO), expansive mortar undergoes hydration with water, leading to significant volumetric expansion and subsequent generation of expansive pressures capable of fracturing rock and concrete within predrilled holes. …”
