STRENGTH AND LIMITATIONS OF EPOXY GROUTS

A new generation of epoxy grout is described, which was developed to meet the new and more demanding challenges of todays construction industry which requires products that are durable under severe conditions, easy to apply under adverse conditions, and fast to install under emergency conditions. These new grouts are formulated from modified polyaminde resins, wetting agents, plasticizers, and specially sized aggregates. Through advances in epoxy technology and formulating, these grouts can be used in most cementitious-based grout applications and those that require higher strength capacities or increased chemical resistance. The article compares epoxy and cementitious grouts, and discusses current classes of structural epoxy grouts,
