What is it about?

Results of studies concerning polymer concretes containing fly ashes. The polymer concretes contained fly ashes of various types, origin, combustion technology and chemical composition. The considered data were the results of studies available in literature as well as results of own research study. The influence of fly ash type and content on PC mechanical properties, such as compressive strength, flexural strength and tensile strength but also on chemical resistance were investigated and analyzed. Moreover fly ashes were compared against the material often applied as very fine-grained filler to concrete-like polymer composites, the raw substance – quartz powder.
