POLYMER MODIFIED GLASS FIBER REINFORCED CONCRETE COMPOSITES A 20 YEAR REVIEW

摘要

The technical evolution of polymer modified, glass fiber reinforced concrete over the last 20 years is reviewed. Emphasis is on mix designs, curing and durability of the glass fiber reinforced composite in various aging conditions, but particularly, the natural aging environment. New 12 and 14-year data continue to indicate that the combination of A-R fiber and Forton polymer gives very good results. The aged strain to failure of polymer modified mixes remains at levels of at least double of that of unmodified mixes.
