β¦ Synopsis
Studies on the changes in compressive strength, split tensile strength, acid resistance, and percentage water absorption are reported for systems of plaster of paris and plaster of paris blends upon impregnation with monomer (MMA) followed by polymerization (in situ), as well as for systems of plaster of paris-epoxy resins with subsequent monomer impregnation.

## Abstract It is a matter of common knowledge that borax (Na~2~B~4~O~7~) is a very efficient agent for retarding the set of plaster of Paris. Its effect on the setting time is shown by the typical curve given in Fig. 1 (after Gibson and Johnβon^1^). One of the explanations offered^2^ for this reta
Low intensity ultrasound waves (20 kHz, 0.19 to 0.57 W/cm 2 based on concrete area) have been applied to enhance the efficiency of impregnating a monomer into hardened concrete, without prior drying, for subsequent in situ polymerization. It was found that methyl methacrylate could be impregnated in
