Benefits of using poly concrete in construction:
1. Highly Durable and Resilient:
Poly concrete can last up to three times longer than other building materials. It is resistant to rot, chipping, burning, and rust.
Seismic activities have less impact on polymer concrete structures.
2. Low Maintenance:
Once poured and set, polymer concrete requires minimal maintenance.
No need for regular coatings or protective treatments. Repainting or re-coating is mainly for aesthetics.
3. Energy Efficient:
Polymer concrete acts as a good insulator, regulating interior temperature conditions. It stores energy efficiently.
4. Chemical Resistance:
Polymer concrete is resistant to a wide variety of chemicals. Suitable for applications in corrosive environments.
5. Adhesion and Bond Strength:
Good adhesion to most surfaces, including reinforcements. Strong bond between the polymer binder and the aggregate.
6. Variety of Applications:
Used for new construction or repairing old concrete. Ideal for swimming pools, sewer structures, drainage channels, and more.
Widely used in manholes due to resistance to sewer gases and bacteria.
7. Innovations and Cost Reduction:
Recent progress has led to reduced costs. Polymer concrete is gradually becoming more widespread.
