A Study on the Strengths of Epoxy Resin Mortar under Heat Exposure

The major objective of this study was to investigate the heat resistance of epoxy resin mortar. For this purpose, these tests of compressive and bending strength were accomp- olished with various heating temperature (40˚C, 60˚C, 80˚C, 100˚C, 120˚C), and with various mixing ratio (1: 2, 1: 4, 1: 6, 1: 8, 1:10, 1:12, 1:14). The exprimental resin was to be Epi-Bis type epoxy resin, which is widely used as construction materials. The results obtained are summarized as follows; 1. The variations of color tone started to begin at 60˚C, and it has come out very heavy at 120˚C. It was assumed that the decrement of weight resulted from carbonization were about 0.22% at 100˚C, and about 0.34% at 120˚C. 2. The compressive and bending strength were increased with temperature rise up to 80˚C, but these were made rapid decrease when the given temperature was over. And so, the mean decrement of compressive and bending strength at 120˚C reached up to 35.5% and 26.4%, respectively. 3. The regression equation between compressive and bending strength for epoxy resin mortar under heat exposure were obtained as follows; od=0. 371oc+39. 23 (r=0. 986) And the estimated value of bending strength was corresponded to about 37 percent in comparing with that of the compressive strength. 4. Consquently, the heat resistance temperature of epoxy resin mortar was to be around 80˚C, and it was generally very low values. But it was regarded that the epoxy resin mortar will not be difficult with materials of civil engineering works and agricultural structures.
