Effect of Poly Vinyl Acetate and Poly Vinyl Alcohol as Cement Admixture on Strength of Concrete
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
This paper reviews the observations of addition of poly vinyl alcohol and poly vinyl acetate the poly fibers together to cement bond matrix. Polymer fiber serves as superplastitisizer which results in low rate of water absorption, high range water reducer greater strength and excellent in elasticity. The experimental study done was observed to determine the optimum dosage for the admixtures and to study the effect of over dosage. The elastic property of the polymer fiber reinforces its property to produce better earthquake resistance of building structure. Polymer fiber was dissolved in water in five different proportions as 2%to 10% with respect to cements weight in kg. The tested specimen was studied for curing and compressive strength on 7th, 14th, and 28th days. Results were studied which proved that concrete mix having polymer fiber gave greater strength than the standard mix.[1] It was further observed that out of five different proportions 2% mix of poly vinyl alcohol and poly vinyl acetate gave higher strength than other higher proportion. The result may improve further if proportions between 0.5% to 2% are taken.
