Estudio de la resistencia a compresión de morteros fabricados con conglomerante compuesto de polvo de vidrio

Abstract

This research evaluates the resistance of mortars made with mixtures of different compositions, where a part of the traditional binder is replaced by glass power in a simple way to analyze the mechanical properties of the reactive samples obtained in this way. The tests were carried out with mortars. To facilitate the reactions are added to the mixtures being analyzed different reagents, mixing the glass powder with basic reagents, allowing the collection of conditions of pH greater than 12, ins which the soda-lime glass is very reactive. Analyzed the different specimens of mortar, shows, that the glass powder and its fineness, play an important role in the increasing the compressive strength of the mixtures.
