Influence of cure on the properties of polymer-modified mortars
Abstract
The use of propylene-fibre reinforced mortar in the remedy of the chimney stack sheathing at the Šoštanj thermal power plant in Slovenia is presented. The fibre reinforced mortar quality analysis is presented for various preparation, placing and cure conditions. Physicomechanical properties of samples taken from the structure are compared with properties of samples prepared in laboratory. The authors conclude that the short-term wet curing is required for polymer-modified mortars.
