  2. Plastic cement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_cement

    Plastic Cement may refer to: Cement, in the US where it refers to certain formulations of Masonry Cement; Dichloromethane, used to solvent weld some thermoplastics including acrylic; Butanone, model cement is a thick mixture with polystyrene; Tetrahydrofuran, the main solvent in PVC cement

  3. Filler (materials) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filler_(materials)

    Plastic consumption uses by field. Filler materials are particles added to binders (resin, thermoplastics, cement) to make a composite material.Filler materials improve specific properties or make the product cheaper.

  4. Poly(methyl methacrylate) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poly(methyl_methacrylate)

    PMMA can be joined using cyanoacrylate cement (commonly known as superglue), with heat (welding), or by using chlorinated solvents such as dichloromethane or trichloromethane [25] (chloroform) to dissolve the plastic at the joint, which then fuses and sets, forming an almost invisible weld. Scratches may easily be removed by polishing or by ...

  5. Binder (material) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binder_(material)

    In reinforced carbon–carbon, plastic or pitch resin is used as a source of carbon released through pyrolysis. Transite, hypertufa, papercrete and petecrete used cement as a binder. In explosives, wax or polymers like polyisobutylene or styrene-butadiene rubber are often used as binders for plastic explosives.

  6. Cement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cement

    A cement is a binder, a chemical substance used for construction that sets, hardens, and adheres to other materials to bind them together. Cement is seldom used on its own, but rather to bind sand and gravel together. Cement mixed with fine aggregate produces mortar for masonry, or with sand and gravel, produces concrete. Concrete is the most ...

  7. Slurry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slurry

    Examples of slurries include: Cement slurry, a mixture of cement, water, and assorted dry and liquid additives used in the petroleum and other industries [1] [2]; Soil/cement slurry, also called Controlled Low-Strength Material (CLSM), flowable fill, controlled density fill, flowable mortar, plastic soil-cement, K-Krete, and other names [3]

  8. Plasticizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasticizer

    PVC, used extensively in sewage pipes, is only useful because of plasticizers. [1]A plasticizer (UK: plasticiser) is a substance that is added to a material to make it softer and more flexible, to increase its plasticity, to decrease its viscosity, and/or to decrease friction during its handling in manufacture.

  9. Polymer concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer_concrete

    The binder is more expensive than cement; Significantly greater tensile strength than unreinforced Portland concrete (since polymer plastic is 'stickier' than cement and has reasonable tensile strength) [1] Similar or greater compressive strength to Portland concrete [1] Faster curing; Good adhesion to most surfaces, including to reinforcements
