Curing plays a vital role in concrete strength development and durability. ... Curing is the process of controlling the rate and extent of moisture loss from concrete during cement hydration. Purpose of Curing of Concrete:-The reaction between cement and water is called hydration. It is an exothermic reaction (the reaction which releases heat).

This curing process is performed with autoclaves at a temperature range of 325 0 F to 375 0 F and a pressure range of 80 to 170psi. The above-mentioned temperature and pressure-controlled environment change the chemistry of the hydration process of the concrete. The concrete produced by this method ought to have:

The dominant curing process today for advanced polymer composites is still based on thermal curing using a range of thermal heating processes, in which the oven or autoclave is widely used. Because polymers and their composites have low thermal conductivity (epoxy resin thermal conductivity at 25 °C: 0.19 W/m K), conventional thermal curing ...

As mentioned earlier, the curing process for epoxy resins needs external heating, and DoC is a function of temperature cycle.
