Description

For over 170 years, portland cement-based mortar and concrete have been foundational to global construction. While widely used, these traditional materials face specific challenges, including delayed hardening, low tensile strength, large drying shrinkage, and limited chemical resistance. This professional handbook provides a deep dive into how polymers can address these limitations. By partially replacing cement hydrate binders with polymers, engineers and scientists can create polymer-modified cement mortar (PCM) and polymer cement concrete (PCC). This text explores the properties and process technology behind these advanced materials, offering a technical resource for those working in building materials science. It serves as a comprehensive guide for understanding how polymer additives transform conventional cement products into more resilient construction materials.
