Research on the Properties of Sea Sand Mortar

Abstract:

With the city's large-scale construction, there have been a shortage of river sand in some areas. So, abundant, low-cost sea sand gradually being used in construction. However, sea sand can not be directly applied to the production of building materials, such as building mortar. Sea sand must be desalted and admixtures must be added to the sea sand mortar. In this paper, using a variety of sand to make cement mortar, and comparing the performance of them. Studies have shown that, compared with the ordinary mortar, the strength and the durability of the sea sand mortar modified by colloidal crystal have improved significantly.
