Abstract:

Calcium sulfate dehydrate β (CaSO4. 0,5H2O) is a material obtained from the calcination of gypsite (CaSO4.2H2O). This is a low cost ceramic material very used in building industry. The improvement of their applications is of fundamental technological interest. Polymers are an interesting alternative of reinforcement. Polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) is an addition polymer obtained by the polymerization of vinyl acetate. This polymer is well known to achieve good adhesion to cellulosic surfaces. The aim of this work was to evaluate the mechanical properties of porous plaster bodies reinforced with PVAc. Mechanical behavior was characterized by compression and bending strength. Three water / gypsum ratios: 0.5 0.6 and 0.7 were used on this work. An amount of 5% and 10% PVAc promoted increase on the mechanical properties of gypsum. Higher amounts polymer promoted further decrease of the mechanical properties.
