The Properties of Polymer-Modified Mortars Using Pozzolana Active Admixtures

Abstract:

The paper focuses on the changes in properties of cement and polymer-modified cement mortars when pozzolana-active admixture are added into the mixture. Natural and artificial pozzolans based on amorphous and mineral silicon dioxide were used. In order to explain the results obtained from the experiment and to gain new insights about the microstructure of the mixtures, equipment such as SEM sampling, RDA analysis, DTA and high-pressure mercury intrusion porosimetry were used.
