reinforced polymer concrete

Reinforced polymer concrete is a type of building material that combines a strong plastic (polymer) with concrete, which is made of cement, sand, and gravel. The polymer acts as a binder, replacing or supplementing traditional cement, and provides added flexibility, durability, and resistance to chemicals and cracking. When reinforced with fibers or meshes, it gains additional strength similar to traditional reinforced concrete but is often lighter and more resistant to environmental damage. This makes reinforced polymer concrete useful in construction, repair, and applications where durability and longevity are important.
