In this paper, the properties of cement mortar used recycled aggregate are analyzed and compared with river and crushed sand mortar. Recycled aggregates are made by crushing wasted concrete had various compressive strength, and test items are the properties of fresh mortar, hardened mortar and durability. According to the experimental results, flow, unitweight, strength and durability of cement mortar used recycled aggregates decrease compared with those of river and crushed sand mortar.

The physical properties of cement sludge treated with hydrofluosilicic acid were investigated. The compressive strength of cement mortar substituted cement sludge was decreased than that of OPC(ordinary portland cement) mortar. Cement sludge, for improving its physical properties, was treated with hydrofluosilicic acid. And compressive strength of cement mortar substituted TCS was greatly improved than that of OPC mortar. Particularly, cement mortar substituted TCS had the higher value in water-proofness than of OPC.

In this study, we compared a plain mortar with the CAS-system shrinkage compensation mortar for Ondol that is Korean traditional heating system. The Ondol mortar is necessary to have properties as non-crack, fine flatness and stability for thermal changes. especially, mortar'crack prevention is to be most important property in Ondol mortar. To develope the stable material on the crack-prevention, we used to calcium-sulfo-aluminate(CSA)system in shrinkage compensation mortar. And so, we confirmed the effects of calcium-sulfo-aluminate(CSA) system for mortar's physical properties such as setting time, compressive strength and expansion ratio for crack prevention. The initial and final setting time of the CSA mortar is faster than plain mortar about 2hours. And, Compressive strength increased about 20% that plain mortar. The crack length per unit area, plain mortar is 0.426∼0.481m/m2. The Results of apartment construction field test, the shrinkage compensation mortar is excellent about the crack-reduce effect.

In this study, the rheological properties of fresh concrete of fresh mortar and concrete were investigated experimentally by shear box test. The pore water pressure in fresh mortar was measured as an influence factor of shear deformation of fresh mortar. As the result, it was clarified that the rheological properties is affected by the pore water pressure in fresh mortar and, the correcting method of shear stress in case of shear box test was obtained.

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of inorganic pigments on the physical properties of cement mortar. For this purpose, the compressive strength and absorption test were carried out on cement mortar imxed with inorganic pigments by changing the proportion of cement mortar, water-cement ratio, and ratio of pigment. The result of this study can be summarized as follows: the compressive strength of colored mortar rapidely increased in red and yellow mortar, as the mix ratio of pigment increased. In case of green and black mortar, however, the compressive strength decresed as the mix ratio incresed. In case of red and yellow mortar, the absorption of colored mortar increased as the mixing ratio increased, if the mean particle diameter of the pigment is small. In case of green and black mortar, the absorption ratio decreased as the mix ratio increased. After investigating the overall physical properties of colored mortar, it was confirmed that the proper mix ratio of pigment securing the properties of colored mortar was below 6% of the weight of the cement to be used.

This study is intended to investigate application of mica waste(MS) to fine aggregate for mortar by comparing it with cement mortar in which crushed sand(CS) and river sand(NS) are used. According to the results, as the physical properties of aggregate, specific gravity is large in order of MS, NS and CS, absorption ratio in order of MS, CS and NS, and unit weight and solid volume percentage in order of NS, CS and MS. In the case of MS mortar, mechanical properties, drying shrinkage and heat conduction ratio are reduced, but the radiative amount of infrared light is excellent compared with NS mortar. Fluidity and unit weight of MS mortar is larger than those of CS mortar, and strength does not make differences. Length change by drying shrinkage is larger, but heat conduction ratio and radiative amount of infrared light are smaller than CS mortar. Thus, it proves that MS can be used in place of NS and CS, but its quality is deteriorated slightly.

The properties of cement mortar with nano-heterojunction photocatalysts were investigated in this study. The following tests were conducted with the cement mortar : (1) Flow test of fresh cement mortar, (2) compressive strength and (3) acetaldehyde removal efficiency under visible light. Results indicated that the cement mortar with nano-heterojunction photocatalysts showed higher compressive strength and higher acetaldehyde removal efficiency as the mixing ratio of nano-heterojunction increased.

Polyethylene-terephthalate (PET) from bottle waste and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) from barrels and tanks waste are widely available and need to be recycled. Recycling them in concrete and mortar is an alternative solution for their disposal. In this study various quantities of sand (5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) were substituted by powder from LLDPE waste. In addition, PET waste fibers (corrugated, straight) were added to the mortar with different percentages (0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2%) of cement mass. This paper evaluate the mechanical and physical properties of the composites in fresh (workability, air content and density) and hardened state (compressive and flexural strength, water absorption and total shrinkage). From the experimental results, it can be concluded that the strengthening in tensile of the mortar with plastic waste corrugated fibers is improved. Other important results are that the water absorption and the density rate are less than that of the ordinary mortar.

In this study, to improve the required properties of tile cement mortar such as excellent water retention capacity (WRC), workability, open time, sag resistance, and tile adhesive strength, tile cement mortars containing the several additives with different ratio were compared and analyzed. By adding small amount of synthesized starch to hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) which is used for improving WRC, the decrease of moisture evacuation from mortar surface was observed and the workability of mortar was improved with long open time. Polyacrylamide (PAAm) and ethylencvinyl acetate (EVAc) were also added in order to increase the adhesion of tile. As a results, the saggings of mortar itself and tile were decreased and the adhesive strength of mortar between base and tile was enhanced. By adding melment, the workability was improved by increasing the fluidity of mortar. It is postulated that the properties of tile cement mortar was improved by adding 0.80~1.20% of HPMC, 0.10~0.15% of starch, 0.001~0.015% of PAAm, 0.05~0.10% of EVAc and 0.003~0.005% of melment to the cement mortar.
