Description
This study is investigation carried on the use of polymers in concrete. The main objectives of the study is to study the mechanical properties of polymer concrete using Styrene –Butadiene latex modified concrete (LMC) to those of conventional concrete. Also, the main microstructural characteristics of LMC were studied using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM).The SEM investigation of the LMC showed major differences in its microstructure compared to that of the conventional concrete.
