Research Abstract |
Material separation in the cross sectional direction was observed in polymer cement waterproofing membranes fabricated with high W/B,. Such pieces showed a behavior similar to brittle failure, with enhanced tensile stress and a significantly reduced rate of elongation. The application of a waterproofing membrane for substrate concrete drastically reduced the Chloride ion penetration. However, a waterproofing membrane does not completely prevent the penetration of Chloride ion into the substrate. The waterproofing membranes are elongated across the substrate cracking and this elongation deteriorates the shielding performance, permitting permeation of Chloride ion into the crack space. The EPMA observations and simulation results show the material separation during the curing process. The mechanical properties and shielding performance are strongly affected by the distribution of cement hardened body sections and polymer sections that comprise the polymer cement waterproofing membranes.
