2.1.1. Identification The exploratory search used "product" and "durability" as keywords. However, results showed some unrelated topics because the term "durability" appears in different contexts (e.g. in civil construction, regarding the durability of concrete; biology and medicine, related to bacteria life; illnesses and aging; among others).

where c min: is the minimum concrete cover, which has to be chosen to fulfil the following three requirements: (1) reinforcement bond, for the safe transmission of bond forces; (2) environmental conditions, related to the protection of the steel against corrosion
Batteries are a key technology in the transition to climate neutrality, and to a more circular economy. They are essential for sustainable mobility and contribute to the zero pollution …
It identifies measuring and testing methods to be used in the compliance assessment of electric vehicle batteries in order to meet Ecodesign requirements. Additionally, gaps and needs not covered by existing standards are identified.
After high-temperature carbonization reduction, the resulting material exhibits characteristic peaks corresponding to RGO and Ni nanoparticles. Specifically, three distinct peaks are observed at 44.5, 51.8, and 76.4, which correspond to the (1 1 1), (2 0 0), and (2 2 0) crystallographic planes of Ni, respectively.. This pattern suggests the effective …
Durability tests allow validating the long-term durability performance of a product under physical and climatic hazards, which may occur during the product use. The goal of accelerated durability tests is to accumulate damage or failure in the shortest time by applying environmental stress levels and other conditions that are exaggerated …
The service life of a RC structure depends on it withstanding the dominant deterioration mechanisms over an acceptable and ''predictable'' time period. The schematic in Fig. 2 shows the progress of deterioration over time in two structures, A and B. Structure A has adequate durability and is better able to resist deterioration before reaching …
To ensure an efficient ionic transport between electrodes and avoid the short-circuit of the battery a thin electrically insulating physical separator is used. Typically, this consists on a single- or multi-layer of polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) or glass-fibre mats [25].].
More environmentally-friendly batteries The expected massive use of batteries should reduce carbon emissions, but to maximise this potential their overall life …
