Polymer concretes: Advanced Construction Materials

By Mostafa Hassani Niaki, Morteza Ghorbanzadeh Ahangari

Polymer Concretes: Advanced Construction Materials provides a comprehensive study on polymer concrete (PC), discussing historical perspectives of its use, the classification and applications of PC, and the advantages and disadvantages of its use.

Materials such as resin, aggregates, micro fillers, fibers, and nanofillers are systematically summarized, as well as their effects on PC.

Also Polymer Concretes examined are the properties, fabrication methods, and the standards for testing the material properties, as well as the future outlook for PC applications.

Polymer Concretes:

Investigates the various properties of PC

Covers the physical, mechanical, thermal, chemical, electrical, and environmental properties of PC

Examines fabrication methods, standards for testing, and the future outlook for various applications

Polymer Concretes is ideal for students taking related courses in Civil, Mechanical, Chemical, and Material Engineering.

It also serves as a useful guide for researchers in the areas of concrete and construction materials, composites and nanocomposites, and advanced materials, as well as professionals working in fields such as construction, precast concrete products manufacture, transportation and road construction, architecture, and more.

This scholarly book will be useful for those who are interested in advanced construction materials and polymer composites and can be used in education and research as well as commercial purposes.
