Drying shrinkage and strength of the redispersible SBR and PAE powder-modified mortars were experimentally investigated. Results of the study that the drying shrinkage rapidly increased until 7 days of age and it was then saturated to the value of about $1\~2\times10^{4}$ after 14 days. It turned out that the polymer-cement ratio exerted more influence on the drying shrinkage than the content of powder shrinkage-reducing agent did. Flexural (compressive) strength of the mortar increased (decreased) as the polymer-cement ratio increased and it was 7$\~$11 (23$\~$39) MPa at 7 days of age. The average (maximum) increasing (decreasing) rate turned out to be about 10 (30) $\%$. As in the drying shrinkage case, the polymer-cement ratio exerted more influence on both flexural and compressive strengths than the content of powder shrinkage agent did.

This study is performed to evaluate the properties of ECO-permeable polymer concrete with blast furnace slag powder and stone dust. The unit weight is in the range of $1,821kg/m^3{\sim}1,955kg/m^3$, the unit weights of those concrete are decreased $15%{\sim}20.8%$ than that of the normal cement concrete. The highest strength is achieved by ECO-permeable polymer concrete filled blast furnace slag powder 50% and stone dust 50%, it is increased 36% by compressive strength, 119% by tensile strength and 217% by bending strength than that of the normal cement concrete, respectively. The coefficient of permeability is in the range of $5.6{\times}10^{-2}cm/s{\sim}8.1{\times}10^{-2}cm/s$, and it is largely dependent upon the mix design.

Asphalt emulsion is manufactured by the emulsification of asphalt, and is considered as an energy-saving, ecologically safe material because it does not need any heating processes with gas emission and fire hazard in its use. This study is concerned with evaluating the feasibility of the use of an asphalt emulsion as a poly-meric admixture. Asphalt-modified mortars using an experimentally manufactured asphalt emulsion were prepared with various polymer-cement ratios, and tested far the mechanical properties such as strengths and adhesion and the properties related to durability such as water absorption, permeation, carbonation and chloride ion penetration. As a result, the waterproofness, carbonation resistance and chloride ion penetration resistance of the asphalt-modified mortars were markedly improved with an increase in the polymer-cement ratio, but their compressive strength and adhesion to mortar substrates were reduced with increasing polymer-cement ratio. Therefore, it is recommended to control their polymer-cement ratio to be $10\%$ or lower in their practical applications. Further study to improve their compressive strength and adhesion is needed.

It was investigated the durability of the concrete to improve construction materials with polymer cement mortar in this study. With the popularity of repair and rehabilitation material, some mixtures composed of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate(EVA) was studied. Ethylene Vinyl Acetate(EVA) carried out tests to determine its properties which a include: freezing-thawing resistance test, carbonation test, and chemical resistance test. Result of freezing-thawing resistance test, mass change ratio and chemical resistance test, mass change ratio decreased of 12 and $15\~45\%$ as compared with control mortar. Carbonation depth decreased $3.7\~5.6mm$ as polymer-cement ratio increased $1\~4\%$.

In this study, primers were prepared by mixing cement and modified polymer, and the adhesion to the substrate surface was enhanced by using cement which is the same material as the basement outer wall. The improved primer is used to verify the adhesion performance of the substrate in wet concrete environments.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the durability and bond strength of polymer powder-modified mortars with special accelerator components. The mortars were prepared with various polymer-binder ratios and applied to the concrete substrate as a repair material. Bond strength, flexural and compressive strengths, freeze-thaw resistance and carbonation resistance were measured for the test. As a result, bond strength of the mortars was increased with an increase in the polymer-cement ratio, and freeze-thaw resistance and carbonation resistance were significantly improved with increasing polymer-cement ratio also.

Permeable polymer concrete has a lot of internal voids, which has more excellent performance in permeability and durability than asphalt and cement concrete. Therefore, in this paper, influences of grading distribution of aggregates on the permeable polymer concrete are presented using polyester resin as binders. According to test results, it shows that compressive strength and unit weight increase with continuous grading distribution and increase of binder content, while void and permeability coefficient shows decline tendency

Various researches on the application of polymer dispersions to the cement mortar and concrete have been carried out in many countries like America, Japan and Germany and so on due to their high performance and good modification effect. PAE of polymer dispersion widely used in situ was employed that the high flowability may be induced in the cement mortar. In order to investigate the modification of cement mortar with high flowability by PAE and fracture mode of adhesive strength properties in tension of that, experimental parameters were set as PAE solid-cement ratio(P/C) and cement: fine aggregate(C:F) and the experiments such as unit weight, flow, consistency change, crack resistance and segregation that inform on the general properties have been done. Adhesion in tension is measured with a view to comprehending the properties and fracture mode in tensile load. Consistency change of cement mortar modified by PAE did grow better as the ratio of PAE solid-cement increased and was much superior to that of resin based flooring such as polyurethane and epoxy which recorded the loss of consistency in 90 min. after mixing. Adhesive strength in tension increased with continuity during curing period and showed the maximum in case of C:F=1:1 and P/C=20%.
