Abstract

The use of additives to improve the quality of cement grouts is crucial for civil engineering, especially in foundation construction. This article presents experimental data concerning the compressive strength, elastic modulus, bleeding and injectability of microfine cement grouts modified with epoxy and acrylic resin emulsions. Strength properties were obtained at different curing ages. For further analysis and detailed discussion of properties of polymer-modified cement grouts, see “Fundamental properties of epoxy resin-modified cement grouts” (C.A. Anagnostopoulos, G. Sapidis, E. Papastergiadis, 2016) [1].

Summary

Data accessibility

Testing the compressive strength and elastic modulus of PMGs with different epoxy and acrylic resin content at designed curing ages in laboratory condition. This data can be useful for comparing some properties of PMGs with that of ordinary grouts. The data highlights the influence of different polymer additives on some properties of cement grouts. This article will serve a as guideline to select parameters of PMGs in the development of further research (for instance: type of cement, epoxy resin content, curing time, combination with other additives). Composition of the tested grouts (Table 1) and data concerning their strength (Table 2), rheological parameters (Table 3 and Fig. 2) and bleeding (Table 4), collected from authors’ experiments, are presented
