Fire tests on polyester polymer mortars

Description

Composite materials made from organic matrices are generally combustible. It is necessary to determine in each case their behaviour under fire and determine whether they fulfil the requirements of the applicable standards in order to match each material to each specific application. Polyester polymer mortar is a material that provides much better mechanical characteristics than traditional mortars but one of its weak points is fire reaction, in this paper, fire reaction of a particular polyester polymer mortar is determined based on Spanish standards, in order to establish its suitability as a coating and cladding material for building construction
