In this study, the mixing contents of ceramic powder and of shrinkage-reducing agent (SRA) influencing on the strength properties of MMA-modified polymer paste were examined. Regardless of SRA content, the flexural. the compressive and the adhesive strengths of the MMA-modified polymer paste tended to increase as the mixing content of ceramic powder increased. On the other hand, those strengths of the polymer paste tended to decrease as the mixing content of SRA increased without regard to the paste content. Furthermore. the adhesive strength of MMA-modified polymer paste in a wet condition decreased about $30-40\%$ of that in an air-dry condition without regard to the mixing content of ceramic powder and SRA.

The effects of polymer-binder ratio, antifoamer content and shrinkage-reducing agent content on the setting time and drying shrinkage of high-fluidity polymer-modified pastes are examined. As a result, the setting time of the high-fluidity polymer-modified pastes tends to delayed with increasing polymer-binder ratio. Irrespective of the antifoamer content, the drying shrinkage of the high-fluidity polymer-modified pastes tend to decrease with increasing polymer-cement ratio and shrinkage-reducing agent content.

The effect of coating method and binder content on the tensile adhesion strength, water absorption and cl- penetration depth of polymer-modified pastes using redispersible polymer powders and ceramic powder are examined. As a result, the tensile adhesion strength of the polymer-modified pastes tend to increase with increasing binder content and: number of coating. The water absorption and cl- penetration depth of the polymer-modified pastes tend to decrease with increasing binder content and number of coating.

The effects of polymer-binder ratio, antifoamer content and shrinkage-reducing agent content on the air content and strengths of high-fluidity polymer-modified pastes are examined. As a result, the air content of the polymer-modified pastes tends to decrease with increasing polymer-binder ratio and antifoamer content. Irrespective of the antifoamer content, the flexural and tensile strengths of the high-fluidity polymer-modified pastes tends to increase with increasing polymer-binder ratio, and tend to decrease with increasing shrinkage-reducing agent content. However, the compressive strength of the polymer-modified pastes decreases with increasing polymer-binder ratio and shrinkage-reducing agent content.

The effects of polymer-binder ratio and ceramic powder content on the drying shringage and strength of polymer-modified pastes using redispersible polymer powders and ceramic powder are examined. As a result, the drying shrinkage of the polymer-modified pastes using redispersible polymer powders tend to decrease with increasing polymer-binder ratio and ceramic powder content. Regardless of the type of polymer powder, the tensile strength and adhesion in tension of the polymer-modified pastes with ceramic powder tend to increase with increasing polymer-binder ratio and ceramic powder content.

In this study, MMA-modified paste of coating material for protecting the concrete structures was developed. The coating material was applied to cement concrete specimens by brush, roller and spray in each of which one, two and three layers to survey, by the cold-hot iterative test, the neutralization test, the chloride ion permeation test and the ante-abrasion test, the affect of painting methods and layers influencing on the durability of coating material. Results of the cold-hot iterative test showed that, regardless of the painting methods and layers, the defects such as crack or fuzz on surface were not produced. As the number of painting layers increased, the neutralization prevention as well as the chloride ion permeation prevention effects were increased. On the other hand, no difference was found between the painting methods. Reducing weight by abrasion of polymer paste coating material was $20\%$ comparing to that of cement mortar.

The effects of binder and alumina content on the setting time, drying shrinkage, strength, freezing and thawing resistance and water absorption of polymer-modified pastes with alumina powder were examined. As a result the setting time of the polymer-modified pastes with alumina powder tended to delay with increasing binder content. Irrespective of the type of polymer, the drying shrinkage of the polymer-modified pastes with alumina powder tended to decrease with increasing binder content and alumina powder content. Regardless of the type of polymer, the tensile and adhesion strengths of the polymer-modified pastes with alumina powder tended to increase with increasing binder content and alumina powder content. Irrespective of the type of polymer, the durability factors of the polymer-modified pastes with alumina powder tended to increase with increasing alumina content. Irrespective of the type of polymer, the water absorptions of the polymer-modified pastes with alumina powder tended to decrease with increasing binder content and alumina content.

The properties of the polymer-modified mortars are influenced by the polymer film, cement hydrates and the combined structure between the organic and inorganic phases. Also, this quality of polymer modified cement strongly depend on weather condition and polymer cement ratio. To overcome this problem, polymer-modified cement were prepared by varying polymer/cement mass ratio (P/C) with $0{\sim}20%$ and constant water/cement mass ratio of 0.5. The effect of polymer on the hydration of this polymer cement is studied on different polymer cement ratio. The results showed that the polymer cement paste have increased the viscosity in addition the amount of polymer dosage and the polymers is completed resulting in a reduced degree of hydration caused by different ion elution amount. Also we know that the reactants is calcium acetate as a results of chemical reaction between acetate group in EVA which is hydrolysis in water and $Ca^{2+}$ ion during hydration of cement.

High strength concretes utilizing EVA with micro particles were prepared by varying polymer/binder mass ratio and curing conditions with a constant water/binder mass ratio of 0.3. The EVA modified concretes on the compressive and flexural strength, microstructure, ultrapulse modulus in curing condition(dry and water curing) were studied. Also, scanning electron microscope analysis(SEM) was performed to reveal the presence of polymer film and cement hydrates in the concrete. The compressive strength of the EVA modified concretes cured at water conditions ere higher than that of the EVA modified concretes cured at dry conditions. But, the flexural strength of the specimens cured at dry conditions were higher than that of the specimens cured at water conditions. Due to the interaction of the cement hydrates and polymer film, an interpenetrating network originated in which the aggregates were embedded. The curing of the polymer modified concrete involves two step of cement hydrates and polymer modification, and cement hydrates was promoted in water conditions and polymer film formation take place when water evaporates and was thereby was favored in dry conditions. By SEM analysis, influences of polymer modification was strengthening of the transition zone between the aggregate and the paste, and the porosity of transition zone decreases. By spring analysis, it could known that polymer film affects in porosity decrease and strengthening of transition zone.
