COMPRESSION BEHAVIOR OF POLYMER CONCRETE BY USING DESTRUCTIVE AND ULTRASONIC WAVE TEST AT 26 KHZ
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Polymer concrete is a composite material realized with resin and aggregates. In this study, the unsaturated polyester composite resin was used for binding the aggregates. In the composition were introduced near the silica foam as filler and glass fibers .Some mechanical properties of polymer concrete have been investigated, by destructive and non – destructive method. The experimental results of non – destructive method were correlated with compressive strength. The fiber percentage and silica foam was constant, the unsaturated polyester resin and the Silica sand dosages were varied. This research was conducted at 26 KHz.
