The effects of polymer-cement ratio and recycled aggregate content on the continuous void ratio, coefficient of permeablity, compressvie, tensile and flexural strengths of water-permeable polymer-modified concretes using recycled aggregate are examined. As a result, the continuous void ratio and coefficient of permeablity of the water-permeable polymer-modified concretes tend to decrease with increasing polymer-binder ratio. Regardless of the recycled aggregate content, the compressvie, tensile and flexural strengths of the water-permeable polymer-modified concretes wtend to increase with increasing polymer-cement ratio.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the absorption ratio reduction of recycled coarse aggregate for concrete coated by polymer dispersions. The surface of recycled coarse aggregate is treated by polymer dispersion such as SBR and SAE with solid contents of 2%, 5% and 10%. From the test results, The minimum absorption ratio of the coated recycled coarse aggregate is 1.60 times smaller than that of uncoated recycle coarse aggregate. It is apparent that the absorption ratio of recycled coarse aggregate is much more improved by surface coating with polymer dispersions.

Preplaced aggregate concrete in the building fields has recently been used in the partial repair works for damaged reinforced concrete structures, and polymer-modified mortars have been employed as grouting mortars for the preplaced aggregate concrete. The objective of this study is to clear the properties of polymer-modified grouting mortars. Polymer-modified mortars using a polystyrene acrylic(St/Ac) emulsion as grouting mortars for preplaced aggregate concrete are prepared with various mix proportions, and tested for flexural and compressive strengths, adhesion in tension. The flexural strength of emulsion-modified grouting mortars does not give much variation with increasing fly ash replacement for cement and sand-binder ratio. With increasing polymer-binder ratio, the flexural strength and adhesion in tension of St/Ac emulsion-modified grouting mortars increases, become nearly constant or reaches a maximum at a polymer-binder ratio of 5%. From the test results, St/Ac emulsion-modified grouting mortar with a polymer-binder ratio of 5%, a fly ash replacement of 10% for cement and sand-binder ratio of 1.0 is recommended as a grouting mortar for preplaced aggregate concrete.

This study was undertaken to examine the feasibility of recycling waste concrete fine aggregate to prepare polymer-modified mortars. The specimens of polymer-modified mortars were prepared by using styrene-butadiene rubber(SBR) latex and polyacrylic ester(PAE) emulsion as a polymer modifier. The formulations for specimens were prepared with various replacing ratios of waste concrete fine aggregates as parts of standard sand and various polymer cement ratios. For the evaluation of the performance of polymer-modified mortars, various physical properties were investigated. As a results, water cement ratio of polymer-modified fresh mortars increased with an increase of recycled fine aggregate, but decreased with an increase of polymer modifiers. The compressive and flexural strengths of polymer-modified mortars decreased with an increase of recycled fine aggregate, but flexural strengths increased with an increase of polymer modifiers.

This study is performed to examine properties of polymer permeability concrete using recycled coarse aggregate and blast furnace slag for application of structures needed permeability. Tests for compressive strength, flexural strength and pulse velocity with replacement ratio of recycled coarse aggregate are performed. As a result, compressive strength, flexural strength and coefficient of permeability of polymer permeability concrete containing recycled coarse aggregate are in the range of $180{\sim}200kgf/cm^2,\;58{\sim}64kgf/cm^2\;and\;4.6{\times}10^{-2}{\sim}6.9{\times}10^{-2}cm/s$, respectively. Compressive strength, flexural strength and pulse velocity of polymer concrete containing crushed stone only are $192kgf/cm^2,\;65kgf/cm^2\;and\;6.1{\times}10^{-2}cm/s$, respectively. Accordingly, recycled coarse aggregate is expected that can be utilizing as an aggregate of polymer permeability concrete.

Polymer mortars are mainly used as protective coatings in concrete, reinforced concrete, and more rarely, steel, while polymer concretes represent a new type of structural material capable of withstanding highly corrosive environments. The mechanical properties, chemical stability, and some other useful properties are the reasons research, design, and production organizations. However polymer mortars and polymer concretes have been introduced only recently, and many of their properties are still imperfectly known. And, the main technique in producing polymer concrete is to minimize void volume in the aggregate mass so as to reduce the quantity of the relatively impressive polymer necessary for binding the aggregate. In this study, compressive strength and flexural strength of unsaturated polyester resin concrete are related to quantity of resin and solid volume of aggregate. It was founded that the more solid volume of aggregate increase, the less using quantity of resin decrease with out reducing mechnical properties. When solid volume ratio of aggregate is 70.6%, using quantity of resin is minimized to 10wt.%.

In this paper, the effects of aggregate and curing temperature on strength development characteristics of UP (Unsaturated Polyester)-MMA (Methyl Methacrylate) based polymer mortar under sub-zero temperature are experimentally investigated to provide a criterion for repair and production of precast products. The result showed that the setting time of the binder was 4 minutes at $20^{\circ}C$ whereas 35 minutes at $-20^{\circ}C$. The result also revealed that the compressive, flexural, and splitting tensile strengths of UP-MMA based polymer mortar significantly decreased as the aggregate and curing temperatures decreased. However, sufficient strengths which can be implemented in actual practices -36.6 MPa of compressive strength, 6.11 MPa of flexural strength, and 5.81 MPa of splitting tensile strength - were obtained even though both aggregate and curing temperatures were $-20^{\circ}C$. Strength development of polymer mortar is largely affected by curing temperature rather than aggregate temperature. It was found that the effects of aggregate temperature on strength development become smaller as the curing temperature becomes lower. Also, toughness, a ratio of compressive strength to flexural strength, increased from 3.5 to 5.9 as both aggregate and curing temperatures decreased from $20^{\circ}C$ to $-20^{\circ}C$.

This study was performed to evaluate the strength properties of polymer concrete using recycled aggre-gate. The compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, flexural strength and pulse velocity of polymer concrete were decreased with increasing the content of recycled aggregate. At the curing age of 7days, the compressive strength was $80.5\~88.3$ MPa, the splitting tensile strength was $9.1\~10.6$ MPa, the flexural strength was $19.2\~21.5$ MPa and the pulse velocity was $3,931\~4,041$ m/s, respectively. Also, the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, flexural strength and pulse velocity of concrete using recycled fine aggregate were higher than that of the silica sand. Therefore, these recycled aggregate polymer concretes were estimated for high strength concrete without major problem.

Condensation control of nano-particles has become important in order to fabricate minute condensed structures. In this study, we focus our attention on condensation mechanism of polymer aggregates in a resist film. The polymer aggregate is structural component of a resist material which is used in lithography process. The condensation nature of polymer aggregates in the resist film surface is observed by using atomic force microscope (AFM). By using the AFM, the condensation of polymer aggregates can be observed clearly. The condensation of polymer aggregate strongly affects to precise fabrication of resist pattern below 100nm size. The interaction force among polymer aggregates can be analyzed based on Derjaguin approximation. We also discuss about condensation nature of polymer aggregates in the resist film surface with the help of micro sphere model.
