Abstract: | |
The purpose of this study is to investigate the properties of polyester resin using the river sand and fly ash and GGBS as micro filler. River sand is taken as fine aggregate passing through 4.75mm sieve. The various properties such as fineness modulus, specific gravity, void content and void ratio of river sand, fly ash and GGBS is found out. The mix design of the mortar was worked out to find the various proportions of each material for the purpose of casting the cubes of size 70.6 x 70.6 x 70.6 mm . The strength of the polyester resin mortar using fly ash and GGBS as micro filler is then found out by casting cubes with different percentage of resin, filler and river sand. The study showed that maximum strength was found for a workable mix with a resin percentage of 14 in case of river sand and fly ash resin mortar and 15% in case of river sand and GGBS resin mortar. |
