eISSN: 2578-1855

Journal Abbreviation: 

J. Polym. Sci. Eng.

Journal of Polymer Science and Engineering (JPSE) is a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the rapid publication of fundamental research papers in all areas concerning polymerization techniques and recent advances of plastic engineering. 

 

  • JPSE solicits research articles covering a broad spectrum of ideas and concepts in polymer science, polymer engineering, and polymer technologies including those on biomaterials, polymer blends, energy conversion and storage, biodegradable polymers and green materials and green technologies. Polymer science and engineering is a strongly interdisciplinary field and papers published by the journal may span areas such as polymer physics, polymer processing and engineering of polymer-based materials and their applications. The journal is also relevant to areas such as, implantable devices, drug delivery systems, bio-nanotechnology and tissue engineering.
 
  • It accepts original research papers, comprehensive review articles, short communications, etc., for publication. We welcome scholars who are farsighted in this field and those who are interested in deepening the field of JPSE to submit papers.

Abstract

Polymer–cement waterproof coatings couple the rigidity of cement and the elasticity of polymers into compositmembranes that prevent water penetration. In the system, polymer particles aggregate to form films in the cementitious matrix and hence plug up capillary pores and bridge micro- cracks].In this paper we present in depth case study of Dunlop K205—an acrylic polymer–cement coating for the Chinese market—and position the practical experience on the broader context of review of recent literature and commercial products. K205 was used to seal a high‑moisture bathroom in Santa Clara, USA. After six months, the coating was waterproof, flexible and did not delaminate even at elevated relative humidity.Compressive strengths and water absorptions are demonstrated in numerical results; polymer content is used to explain their variations in simulation. Comparison tables are provided among K205 and other products like Sika Damp Proofing Slurry, Drizoro Maxseal Flex and SinoMaco crystalline coatings. Permeability reduction formulas and bond strength formulas are derived for polymer contents. Real observations and simulation results for both of them are visualized by figures.We refer to $35$ articles — mostly which are published post-2020, according Vancouver style, wherein findings are reported and emphasized the benefits of polymer– cement waterproof coatings for residents as well as proper mixing, application and concerns related to sustainability issues.
