Application

  • Roar Myrdal: Discusses the use of calcium thiocyanate along with sodium thiocyanate and calcium nitrate in concrete as accelerating admixtures, highlighting their effects on the setting time and strength development (H Justnes).
  • Gas permeability of cellulose aerogels with a designed dual pore space system: Investigates the role of calcium thiocyanate tetrahydrate in the creation of cellulose aerogels, focusing on its impact on the structural and physical properties of the aerogels, crucial for applications such as insulation and filtration (K Ganesan et al., 2019).
