Experimental Study on Comparison about the Modifiers of Rubber Cement Concrete

Abstract:

5-8 mesh rubber granules was mixed with an equal volume instead of fine aggregate, and the content of rubber was 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. Compared with the influence of silane coupling agent, latex and silica fume to the mechanical properties of rubber concrete, it studied the mechanism of rubber-modified to the rubber concrete. The test results proved that the silane coupling agent, latex, and silica fume could improve the compressive strength, splitting and flexural strength. Latex could significantly improve the bond strength of cement-based materials and the integrity of the concrete. Coupling agent made rubber bond with cement-based materials to form a stable connection, and silica fume filled the pore in concrete, so it optimized the gradation. Latex was the best, silane coupling agents was second, and silica fume was the last about the improved effect of three kinds of modifiers.
