In the course of repairs or upgrading measures, it is often necessary to provide floors with synthetic resin coatings. After the work has been carried out, bubbles may form. The article lists the various mechanisms that cause blistering (osmotic pressure, impurities in the aggregate of the screed or concrete, chemical reactions, e.g. alkali silica reaction). By aid of a case study, the procedure for determining the causes of blistering is given in more detail. The investigations have shown that the formation of bubbles was due to alkali-silica reactions of opal sandstone particles in the screed.

Bond bundles are chemical bonding regions, analogous to Bader atoms, uniquely defined according to the topology of the gradient bundle condensed charge density, itself obtained by a process of infinitesimal partitioning of the three-dimensional charge density into differential zero-flux surface bounded regions. Here we use bond bundle analysis to investigate the response of the charge density to an oriented electric field in general, and the catalytic effect of such a field on Diels-Alder reactions in particular, which in this case is found to catalyze by allowing the transition state valance bond bundle configuration to be achieved earlier along the reaction pathway. Using precise numerical values, we arrive at the conclusion that chemical reactions and electric field catalysis can be understood in terms of intra-atomic charge density redistribution, i.e., that charge shifts within more so than between atoms account for the making and breaking of bonds.
