Effect of Polymers in Fresh and Hardened State Of Cement Concrete

Sagar Sahu , Dr. S. P. Mishra

The aim of this study is to investigate the compressive strength and workability properties of polymer modified concrete. In this work two different types of polymers are used at different dosages to modify the cement concrete. Besides, test on a series of concrete mixes without polymer was also examined. The influence of different polymers dosages in respect of workability and compressive strength characteristics are found. A comparative study has been carried out to highlight the effect of two different polymers on fresh and hardened properties of polymer modified concrete. Developing mix design using polymer Glenium B-233 and Glenium ACE-30 with three different dosages 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.6% for M-20, M-30 and M-40 grade as per IS 10262: 2009. Concrete mixes prepared and tested in fresh and hardened state for total 144 numbers of concrete cubes were moulded
