To study the effect of latex in the various characteristic strength of concrete / Nurhaidah Jamil
Cement composite can be modified to improve its physical characteristic and strength in a different manner and one of them is by adding a polymer such as latex. However, the application of latex as a concrete modification is limited to synthetic latex and so far too little attention is given to the...

Cement composite can be modified to improve its physical characteristic and strength in a different manner and one of them is by adding a polymer such as latex. However, the application of latex as a concrete modification is limited to synthetic latex and so far too little attention is given to the natural latexes. A comparison between natural concrete and a concrete samples added with tatex is being studied due to the different proportion and characteristic strength of concrete. The main objective of this work is to study the effect of latex in the various characteristic strength of concrete. Properties which is going to be tested are tensile strength, workability, compressive strength and the surface absorption. Previous studies have shown that the present of natural latex has changed the properties of both the fresh and hardened concrete, ft has also given some impressive results that leads to the needs of further tests until the advantage of latex concrete is found. |
