THE EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE (UP TO 200 DEG C) ON THE FLEXURAL BEHAVIOUR OF A CEMENT MATRIX REINFORCED WITH POLYPROPYLENE MESH

A cement/polymer composite has been developed in, and patented by, the university of ulster. This paper reports the flexural response of the composite after exposure to temperatures up to 200 deg c. Also rate of spread of flame testing is reported.(a)
