Polymer concrete is a composite material that consist og
inorganic aggregates bonded together by a resin binder.The material can be used
effectively in a variety of structural applications such as as transportasion ,
utility , marine , an building components.
An unsaturated polyester based on the polyester oligomer was
prepared by Tong et al.(ref.13).Physical properties of reinforced polyester
concrete using recycled PET were investigated by REBEIZ et al.the author have
been long enganged in produsing an effective ppltmer concrete from reclaim PET
and in its application because the letter is a major component in unsaturated
polyester resins.A new type of Polyester concrete composite is developed by
mixing an unsaturated polyester resin from reclaim Pet products with Portland
cement . sand and water in proportions similar to those used for cement mortar
materials for construction purposes.this Polymer concrete exhibits a high
strength of up to 83 MPa in compressive strength sn 21 Mpa in flexural stenght*
