Our work to date has involved working with aggregate gradations to minimize the voids and with different combinations of monomers, catalysts and promoters to achieve suitable strengths and workability. At present, tests are being made to evaluate the bond strength between cured concrete and the polymer concrete overlay for different polymers and for different preparatory treatments of the concrete surface. Future tests will evaluate thermal expansion, modulus of elasticity, and shrinkage characteristics of selected mixes.
This report describes work done on various combinations of monomers and polymer concrete mixes and identifies the mixes showing the greatest potential...
The physical properties of hardened concrete cores and fresh concrete test results were compared with aggregate gradation workability differences. The...
