Curing is a term in polymer chemistry and Process Engineering that refers to the toughening or hardening of a polymer material by cross-linking of polymer chains, brought about by chemical additives, ultraviolet radiation, electron beam (EB) or heat. In rubber, the curing process is also called vulcanization.
Concrete curing is a process where the cement in concrete is allowed to react with the water over time, increasing the concrete's strength and hardness.
