A bio-inspired addition to concrete stops the damage caused by freezing and thawing

Concrete is one of the most durable building materials used in modern-day infrastructures, but it has a weakness — ice — which can cause it to crumble. Now, inspired by organisms that survive in sub-zero environments, researchers are introducing polymer molecules with anti-freezing abilities into concrete.
