For the present experiment five Portland cement mortars are in order: mortars with two different water/ cement ratios (W/C=0.45 and 0.50, each having no chemical additive), and those with an additive such as superplasticizer, air-entraining agent or water-repelling agent. We fix the W/C ratio of mortars having additive so that their pastes can yield the same workability as that of the cement mortar of W/C=0.50 with no additive. It is shown that the freeze-thaw resistivity depends heavily on the characteristic of wide pores. Despite a good deal of wide pores, the air-entrained specimen shows a good freeze-thaw resistivity due to appropriate air-pores. And also the specimen with water-repelling agent, which proves to cause the microstructure to become hydrophobic, make good resistance to freeze-thaw cycles in spite of its high wide-porosity. Our suggestion is that the freeze-thaw durability of Portland cement mortar/concrete can be more effectively enhanced by using air-entraining agent or water-repelling agent, and simutaneously by taking proper measures against foaming and/or the increased tendency of wide-pore building due to additive.

This study reports the results of nondestructive monitoring of macro void developments in mortars manufactured with both ordinary Portland cement and sulfate resistant cement. Two types of curing were utilized; tap water curing and another curing environment that contains 5% $Na_2(SO_4)$ solution. Being the primary objective of this study, macro void developments of the mortar specimens were monitored by X-ray Medical Computerized Tomography. Compressive strength tests and water absorption tests were conducted on specimens that were kept in both curing environments for a duration of 560 days. Data analyses yielded consistent results among the three tests used in this experimental study. Macro void ratios of mortars decreased at the beginning of experiments for a certain period; afterwards, macro void ratios increased. The objective of this study was accomplished as anticipated since X-CT image analysis was able to nondestructively monitor macro void development process in cement mortars.

The purpose of present study is to examine the long-term strength improvement of hardener-free epoxy-modified mortars with steam curing. As a result, strength improvement of hardener-free epoxy-modified mortars is markedly improved with increasing of air-dry curing period. This is improved by markedly increase the degree of hardening of the hardener-free epoxy resin in the epoxy-modified mortars with additional air-dry curing period.

The tailings stocked at two tailing piles in Sangdong aea have raised collapse hazards and various environmental problems. A trial for effective utilization of tailings as fine aggregates for polymer concrete has been performed along with mineralogical and physical characterization of tailings. The tailings from the Sangdong mine, mainly composed of quartz, orthoclase, amphiboles and muscovite, are alkaline and tailings at the new tailing pile are generally finer in grain size than those at the old tailing pile. In case of using New Tailings as fine aggregates, cement mortar with equivalent amounts of tailings and sands shows the highest compressive strength. Cement mortars containing tailings show lower values of compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and flexural strength than those not-containing tailings. Mixture of polymers such as SBR and EVA in cement mortars raises strengths of cement mortars effectively, which shows potential possiblity to utilize the tailings in Sangdong area as fine aggregates for polymer concretes.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of curing conditions on adhesion in tension of polymer-modified mortar to cement mortar substrate in comparision with ordinary cement mortar. The polymer-modifies mortars using two polymer dispersions and a redispersible polymer power are prepared with various polymer-cement ratios, and tested for the adhesion in tension of the specimens subjected to five curing conditions. From the test results, the adhesion in tension of polymer-modified mortars tends to increase with increasing polymer-cement ratio irrespective of the polymer types and curing conditions. It is apparent that adhesion in tension of polymer-modified mortars is considerably influenced by curing conditions.

In this paper, we study the competition between two kinds of suppliers, a bricks and mortars(B&M) and a clicks and mortars(C&M). Using the circular spatial market model, we derive and analyze the Nash and Stackelberg equilibria as a function of offline market share and efficiency of online channel of the C&M supplier. The result can be summarized as follows: (1) Stackelberg equilibrium is always superior to the Nash equilibrium, (2) Under certain conditions, the price of online channel can be higher than that of offline channel, (3) It is impossible for the C&M supplier to encroach on all of the B&M supplier's market, (4) In some cases, the C&M supplier has incentive to lower the efficiency of its online channel for more profit.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect on drying shrinkage of self-healing epoxy-modified mortars(EPMMs) using expansive admixtures. The EPMMs are prepared with polymer-binder ratios of 0 and 10%, and tested for drying shrinkage and pore structure analysis. As a result, regardless of the expansion and swelling agent content, the drying shrinkage of the EPMMs is remarkably decreased than that of unmodified mortars. Also, the pore size distribution of the EPMMs is moved to smaller size in comparison with unmodified mortars. In this study, the EPMM with expansive agent 7.5% and swelling agent 2.5% is recommended as a optimal mix proportion for reduction of drying shrinkage.

In this study, VA/E/MMA-modified mortars with nitrite-type hydrocalumite were prepared with various calumite contents and polymer binder-ratios, and tested for chloride ion penetration, carbonation and drying shrinkage. As a result, the chloride ion penetration and carbonation depths were somewhat increased with calumite contents, but those were remarkably decreased depending on the polymer-binder ratios. The 28-d drying shrinkage showed a tendency to increase with polymer-binder ratios and calumite contents. VA/E/MMA-Modified mortars with a calumite of 10 % were dissatisfied with KS requirements. Accordingly, a calumite content of 5 % for the VA/E/MMA-modified mortars with calumite is recommended.

The objective of this study are to compare the development of compressive strength of epoxy mortars used as repairing materials with respect to maturity , and to propose a model predicting strength development of epoxy mortars. A series of tests are carried out for the hardener contents of 30, 40 and 50 percentage of epoxy resin and compressive strengths are measured at the age of 6, 12, 24, 72, 120 and 168 hours respectively under the cure temperature of 0, 10, 20 and 3$0^{\circ}C$. The datum temperature is estimated by measured strengths, and the maturity is calculated with the estimated datum temperature. The compressive strength of epoxy mortars can be predicted by regression analysis from the maturity-compressive strength relationship.

Nano-particle-reinforced cement mortars have been the basis of research in recent years and a significant growth is expected in the future. Therefore, optimization and quantification of the effect of processing parameters and mixture ingredients on the performance of cement mortars are quite important. In this work, the effects of nano-silica, water/binder ratio, sand/binder ratio and aging (curing) time on the compressive strength of cement mortars were modeled by means of artificial neural network (ANN). The developed model can be conveniently used as a rough estimate at the stage of mix design in order to produce high quality and economical cement mortars.
