Polymer-Impregnated Concrete(PIC) is a new polymer-concrete composite material which consist of basic cement concrete and polymer. The mechanical properties and behavior of PIC depend on the type of polymers and the impregnation techniques. In general, the polymer impregnation can improve the strength, durability and ductility of normal concrete. The objective of this study is to develop the analytical procedure for analyzing the structural responces of polymer-impregnated concrete beams with different polymer loading by using finite element method on the basis of experimental results.

This paper summarizes the results of a series of numerical evaluations (Lee et al., 2004, 2005) on the performance of pre-cracked reinforced concrete (RC) beams coated with polymeric composites. It was intended to numerically show the superior characteristics of the polymeric composites for enhancing the strength and ductility of existing concrete structures. Further, the predicted load-carrying and energy absorbing capacities of the beams were compared with previous experiments to verify the predictive capability of implemented computational model.

There is a limit manufacturing precast products for the construction industry using conventional cement concrete and precast iron due to many reasons. Therefore, precast product technologies using polymer concrete are widely developed across the world because using polymer concrete can be over come this limitation. This study reviewed and analyzed the trends of development and practical usages of ploymer concrete precast products in foreign countries based on selected literatures. It was observed that polymer concrete precast products have been widely used as utility structures wall and slab members. decoration products, traffic products, hydraulic structures and industry equipments.

This study evaluated mechanical characteristics of polymer concrete produced using waste lime stone aggregate. Study results showed that compressive strength, flexural strength, split tensile strength and fracture toughness were very high. Therefore, it was concluded that waste lime stone could be used as aggregate in polymer concrete production through appropriate processing.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the properties of composite systems using polymer cement and epoxy resins for waterproofing and anti-corrosion to concrete structures such as water supply facilities and sewage-works. For the waterproofing and anti-corrosion of concrete structures, there can be required various properties such as absorption capacity and water permeability, adhesion and tensile strength, hair crack-resistance, impact-resistance, repeated low and high temperature test and chemical resistance, soundness for drinking water, soundness for drinking water and etc. In this study these engineering properties of composite systems using polymer-modified mortar and epoxy resins were examined and could be confirmed to satisfy the guidelines of KS. Especially, it was turn out that the adhesion properties was excellent and high crack-resistance up to 1.49 mm will be perform.

The purpose of this study is to find out the effect of polymer glass transition temperature on mechanical properties of polymer latex-modified mortars in comparison with ordinary cement mortar. The Polymer latex-modified mortars are prepared with 5, 10, 15 and 20% of polymer cement ratio respectively, and properties of modified mortars such as air content, compressive, flexural and tensile strengths are tested. The test results indicate that the types of polymer dispersion and the polymer-cement ratio are very important factors to characterize the properties of polymer-modified mortars, and also the glass transition temperature of polymer dispersions has an important effect on the performance of polymer-modified mortars. The modifying effects of two kinds of polymer dispersion, St/BA-1 and SBR, are evaluated.

This study was performed to evaluate the engineering properties of surlightweight polymer concrete using synthetic lightweight aggregate. The following conclusions were drawn; 1. The unit weight was in the range of 0.849~0.969t/$m^3$, the unit weights of those concrete were decreased by 58 ~ 63% than that of the normal cement concrete. 2. The highest strength was achieved by $P_1$, and compressive strength was increased by 93% and bending strength by 364% than that of the normal cement concrete, respectively. 3. The ultrasonic pulse velocity was in the range of 2, 346~2, 702m/s, which was low compared to that of the normal cement concrete. 4. The dynamic modulus of elasticity was in the range of $1.561{\times} 10{^5}~1.916{\times} 10{^5}kgf/cm^2$, which was approximately 52~98% of that of the normal cement concrete. 5. The compressive and bending strength were increased with the increase of unit weight. But, the dynamic modulus of elasticity and ultrasonic pulse velocity were decreased with the increase of unit weight.

The alkali activation products of slag, fly ash C and fly ash F were investigated using compressive strength test and synchrotron x-ray diffraction. We propose that the predominantly amorphous geopolymer formed under ambient conditions is a disordered form of one of the ABC-6 group of zeolites, which includes poly-types such as hydroxycancrinite, hydroxysodalite, chabazite, levyne or fransinite.

본 연구에서는 표면부를 에폭시 폴리머 모르터로 하고 , 중심부를 발포 폴리스티렌으로 하는샌드위치 패널을 제조하여, 표면부를 용접철강으로 보강한 경우와 보강하지 않은 경우에 대하여 4강 단순지지 조건에서의 정적 차 통해 하중-처짐, 휨모멘트-변형률, 파괴양상 등을 구명하였다. 단위중량, 극한가중, 휨모멘트는 중심부의 두께보다 표면부 두께에 더 큰 영향을 받으며 극한처짐은 보강안된 경우 표면부 보다 중심부 두께의 영향이 월등히 컸으마 보당된 경우는 표면부나 중심부 두께의 영향이 비슷하였다. 그러나 용접철망의 보강은 샌드위치 패널의 처짐억제 보다 인성증가에 기여도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 샌드위치 패널의 파괴양상은 보강하지 않은 경우 선형파괴가 일어난데 비해 보강한 경우에는 방사상의 파괴가 일어났다.

Recent advance in material technology has accelerated the development of high strength concrete using lightweight artificial aggregates. The lightweight concrete has many advantages that the reduction of dead loads and the increase in load capacity can offer. In this study the lightweight polymer concrete using unsaturated polyester resin and lightweight aggregate were prepared and tested for testing the physical and the mechanical properties. The compressive strengths of lightweight polymer concretes with apparent specific gravity for 1.32 to 1.78 were 250 to 470 kfg/cm$^2$ and flexural strengths were measured to be in the range of 1/3-1/4 of compressive strength.
