Özet
Lightweight aggregates have been utilized in concrete production for many years, and the incorporation of polymer materials into such composites has recently received growing attention due to the potential improvements in mechanical and durability performance. Polymer concrete or PC is concrete that has been coated, reinforced, or made without cement. It uses polymer materials to make the concrete stronger and last longer. The properties of polymer concrete made with pumice aggregate (PAPC) are described for this reason. This review looks at the mechanical and physical properties of PAPC. The results demonstrate that PAPC exhibits superior compressive and flexural strength compared to conventional concrete, along with reduced density and lower water absorption capacity. These enhancements make PAPC a promising material for lightweight and durable construction applications. This study is the first to look at PAPC and gather information that can be used to guide future research.
