Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of adding novolac resin by different volumetric percentages to concert as a light weight aggregate In addition to the economic feasibility of the use of these concrete in the field of build and construction .they investigated tht the compression strength, thermal conductivity, acoustic insulation and densities. The results showed ultimate compression strength and acoustic insulation by melting novolac and added to the cement and sand as a polymer concrete in the hot state (by melting novoac >90c).However added novolac resin as aggregate in the cold state to the concrete increase thermal conductivity and increasing compression strength and acoustic insulation .This results gained by chemical interaction of novolac and cement.
