Abstract:

Polymer overlays are composite materials consisting of organic polymer resins and aggregates. They are often applied to bridge decks to protect the deck from deicer (chloride) intrusion and subsequent corrosion-induced damage. A high-friction surface treatment (HFST) applied to a bridge deck often refers to a thin polymer overlay approximately ¼ inch thick that only differs from a conventional thin polymer overlay (TPO) by the use of special aggregate intended to increase and maintain high friction.
