Abstract
Water-soluble polymer and latex additives are used to give the gypsum building plaster elasticity and placeability, improved water resistance and increased bending strength. The nanomodifiers in the form of carbon single-layer and multi-layer nanotubes, fullerenes and other nanoparticles are used for the formation of the structure of a gypsum stone with improved strength characteristics and improved weather resistance. In this work, the joint effect of the plasticizer based on polycarboxylate and the carbon nanomodifier on the structure, physicomechanical properties, and water resistance of the gypsum stone is investigated. It is shown that nanomodifiers contribute to the increase in the plasticizing ability of carboxylate additives, which leads to the significant decrease in the amount of mixing water, and as a result, to the increase in density, decrease in the porosity of the gypsum stone and the increase in its strength characteristics and water resistance.
