VAE modified mortar mechanical properties

To study VAE powder on mechanical properties of cement mortar, improve the performance of cement mortarVAE modified mortar compressive strength, flexural strength, tensile strength and bond strength of five kinds of polymer materials (8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%) were tested respectively to study the VAE modified mortar mechanical properties and frost resistance. The results showed that VAE powder incorporation can significantly improve the flexural strength, tensile strength and bond strength of cement mortar. But the improvement effect on the compressive strength of cement mortar is not obvious, even reduced. VAE powder modified mortar's flexural strength, tensile strength, bond strength increased 47.54%, 73.23%, 739.13% compared with ordinary cement mortar.
