Synthesis of poly ( N -acryloylmorpholine) macromonomers using RAFT and their copolymerization with methacrylic acid for the design of graft copolymer additives for concrete †
Series of concrete mixes containing 1%, 2%, 3%, 5% and 10% polymer contents by weight of cement were prepared, cured and tested for workability, mechanical and durability properties at 7, 28 and 60 days. Test parameters include compressive, indirect tensile and flexural strengths, water absorption and chemical resistance.
Abstract and Figures. Superabsorbent polymers (SAP) are new, very promising multipurpose chemical admixtures for concrete. They make available a number of new possibilities with respect to the ...
Redispersible polymer powder modified cementitious tile adhesive as an alternative to ordinary cement-sand grout. The available water gets depleted as it is being used in cement hydration. This results in coalescence of RPP which begets the gradual formation of a three dimensional polymeric network that serves in bolstering the strength …
Fiber-reinforced concrete is ideal for improving the durability and toughness performance of concrete and mortar. Fibers in concrete help reduce shrinkage cracks, increase strength, increase energy absorption and reduces dangerous spalling at high temperatures. Sika is the leading company for fiber-reinforced concrete solutions.
