Abstract
With rapid economic development in China, new and aging road infrastructure is susceptible to premature distresses like potholes under environmental and traffic loading, posing safety risks. Although epoxy resins for crack repair materials exhibit favorable adhesion and mechanics, polyurethanes are emerging for roads to enhance the durability and wear resistance of epoxy resins. This paper summarizes polyurethane-modified epoxy resins for pavement repair, referring to their mechanical properties, adhesive properties, durability and toughness, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance. The polyurethane modification mechanism and the effect of curing agent on the properties of polyurethane-modified epoxy resins are discussed. Polyurethane-modified epoxy resins show potential to combine the strengths of both polyurethanes and epoxy resins for advanced pavement repair materials.
期刊介绍:
"Polymer Bulletin" is a comprehensive academic journal on polymer science founded in 1988. It was founded under the initiative of the late Mr. Wang Baoren, a famous Chinese chemist and educator. This journal is co-sponsored by the Chinese Chemical Society, the Institute of Chemistry, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences and is supervised by the China Association for Science and Technology. It is a core journal and is publicly distributed at home and abroad.
"Polymer Bulletin" is a monthly magazine with multiple columns, including a project application guide, outlook, review, research papers, highlight reviews, polymer education and teaching, information sharing, interviews, polymer science popularization, etc. The journal is included in the CSCD Chinese Science Citation Database. It serves as the source journal for Chinese scientific and technological paper statistics and the source journal of Peking University's "Overview of Chinese Core Journals."
