β¦ Synopsis
Polymer concrete possesses viscoelastic properties conditioned by relaxation processes in the polymer binder. Their acceleration with an increase of temperature (principle of time-temperature equivalence) is used in predicting the long-term creep of polymer concrete. Physical aging of the polymer binder influences the creep of polymer concrete. To predict the long-term creep accounting for the aging process, an attempt to improve the time-temperature equivalence principle was undertaken. As a result of the experimental study of polyester resin-based concrete and its structural components (a resin unfilled and filled with diabase flour), it has been established that the changes in the creep compliance of the material follow according to the principle of the time-aging time equivalence with the reduction function depending on aging temperature. To predict the long-term creep of polymer concrete, a function of the time-temperature-aging time reduction was applied.

A method is proposed for predicting the density of a linear, amorphous polymer. The method is based on the additivity of group increments for the molar volume of a polymer unit. It is analogous to the published methods for predicting the molar volume of organic liquids. The method may be improved as
A polymerization reaction may lead to either a thermoplastic or thermoset system depending upon the chemical structure of the monomers, and is usually accompanied by a marked increase in viscosity, which is directly related to the extent of reaction. As the molecular weight increases and branch chai
