What is it about?

The aim of this research is to determine the influence of waste perlite powder quantity on rheological properties of polymer–cement mortar mix. Influence of dosing sequence of waste perlite powder on mortar mixture properties was especially taken into consideration. In the research, eight mortar mixes were prepared using different quantities of perlite powder in mortar and by using different dosing sequence of mixture components. During the research, the influence of waste perlite powder on consistency and workability of mortar mix was evaluated. By analyzing the various dosage sequences of the ingredients, the problem of difficult homogenization of the mortar and excessive dusting of the waste perlite powder were investigated. The obtained results show that changing the dosing moment of the key component – waste perlite powder – can influence technological properties of polymer–cement mortars.
