Abstract

English

The paper analyses durability of typical waterproofing coatings and assesses their influence on concrete surface protection in their different functions – as carbonation resistance and resistance to chemicals . For this purpose, a polymer modified cementitious mortar product was chosen for tests, one representative in its class and with properties typical for this group of materials. The tests were performed both using standard methods and methods of own design. The results presented in this article confirm that it is possible to develop a composition of a polymer modified cementitious mortar product which ensures creation of an effective and durable coating which serves as a waterproofing layer, chemical protection layer – in a limited scope, naturally – and surface protection against concrete carbonation.
