Polymer concrete is similar to conventional concrete in that it contains selected blends of aggregates and fillers which are held together utilizing a binder. Conventional Concrete uses a mixture of cement and water for the binder. In polymer concrete the binder is a high strength, corrosion resistant, thermosetting resin. This resin system requires a curing agent (catalyst) which when combined with the resin, transfers the resin and curing agent from a liquid to a solid (thermoset polymer) which bonds to the aggregate, various fillers and internal reinforcement.
