Abstract: | Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate (EVA) redispersible powder and latex were used to modify mortar. Three kinds of curing regimes: standard
curing, high temperature curing and freeze-thaw circle curing were adopted to cure the bonded samples. Bonding strength of
EVA modified mortar was tested at 28 days. The development of bonding strengths under all three curing regimes were discussed
and compared. The experimental results show that bonding strength increases with the increase of EVA content in mortar. The
curing regime used within 28 days is critical according to the bonding strengths values under three curing regimes for different
ages. The reasons of that the EVA can improve the bonding strength were analyzed. |
