INFLUENCE OF SORGHUM HUSK ASH AS MICRO-FILLER IN POLYMER CONCRETE

ABSTRACT Polymer concretes (PCs) are known to be less permeable to water, but its usage is less popular in tropical countries like Nigeria because its common binder, thermoset resins, are very sensitive to rising temperature. This sensitivity to temperature accelerates the polymerization process and this jeopardizes its early strength development, thereby producing a PC with low workability and high porosity. To address  this, polymer inhibitors with addition of Methyl Methacrylate ...
