ASTM C881/C881M − 14 Standard Specification for Epoxy Resin Base Bonding Systems for Concrete

ASTM C881/C881M − 14 Standard Specification for Epoxy Resin Base Bonding Systems for Concrete

Scope
1.1 This specification covers two-component, epoxy-resin bonding systems for application to portland-cement concrete, which are able to cure under humid conditions and bond to damp surfaces.

1.2 This specification does not cover epoxy-resin-base bonding systems that have been modified by addition of components such as cement, fine aggregate, or fiber reinforcement.

Additional testing may be required to meet applicable specifications for these applications.

1.3 This specification does not address the effects of creep on epoxy-resin-base bonding systems while under load or the potential for creep rupture. Additional testing is required for applications where creep and creep rupture are critical
