Effect of Polymer Admixtures on Mechanical Properties of Alkali-Activated Slag Mortars
Alkali-activated slag (AAS) binders have lower environmental impact due to its production process, but also have disadvantages as an increased shrinkage followed by formation of microcracks. The effect of polymer admixtures based on vinyl acetate, ethylene and acrylic acid ester, methyl metacrylate and different types of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polypropylene glycol (PPG) on properties of alkali-activated slag concrete was studied. Admixtures used for mortars were tested to improve shrinkage, workability and compressive strength, flexural strength. The analysis also showed the effect of the admixtures on microstructure of the alkali-activated slag pastes and mortars.
