EPOXY POLYMER MODIFIED CONCRETES

Rudolf A. RaffH.F. Austin

Year: 1973 Journal:   ACI Materials Journal Vol: 40 (11)Pages: 339-346   Publisher: American Concrete Institute

Abstract

Polymer cement concretes prepared by substituting at least 30 percent of epoxy resin for cement into ordinary portland cement concrete mixes showed increased compressive strengths. The addition of fly ash to the epoxy cement mixes increased the compressive strength further. Preliminary tests indicated that the presence of the epoxy resin does not inhibit the hydration of the portland cement. /ACI/
