Abstract
The behaviour of an epoxy resin to be used for the repair of cementitious d amaged structures is evaluated with respect to its adhesion properties and durability. The epoxy resin is used as a primer to link an unmodified repai r mortar to a substrate and/or as modifier of the repair mortar. The behavi our and durability of the system when exposed to thermal and environmental stresses are investigated and compared to unmodified materials. The data so far collected outline reliable behaviour of the materials. (C) 1999 Elsevi er Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
