CONCRETE POLYMERS: PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE

A review of the principal characteristics of concrete-polymer materials and a comparison of the advantages are made. The development of PC and PIC materials for a variety of developments including Highway and Bridge Deck Applications, Water Dam Repairs, Japanese Developments, Housing and Railroad Stations, Geothermal Applications, Municipal Solid Waste Utilization and Solidification of Radioactive Waste. The various concrete-polymer materials are beginning to take its place as a very versatile and economically useful material of construction. (ERA citation 02:045935)
