Improvement of porosity of mortar using polyethylene glycol pre-polymer-impregnated mortar

The extreme porosity and brittleness of cement mortar, when subjected to external forces, explain its fragility and low compressive and flexural resistance. Utilizing polymers is a cheap way to address these drawbacks. In this research, cement mortar samples were improved their mechanical and physic...
