Abstract

In this study, the rubber particles are treated by the water and NaOH before adding into the concrete, and the Rubber Concrete (RC) specimen is manufactured by mixing the treated 10 mesh rubber particles with the mass fraction of 5% ~ 35% into the plain cement, and the cube compressive strength, axial compressive strength and flexural strength of RC are tested for the specimen with the age of 28d. The results show the content of 3% of NaOH is reasonable to obtain the higher strength growth ratios for different specimens. At the same time, the freeze-thaw resistance and anti-sulfate properties of treated RC are investigated. The results show that the strength and freeze-thaw resistance of the treated RC can be improved when the content of NaOH is lower than 5%, and the optimal NAOH content is 3% for the improvement of strengths, and the treatment of rubber particles with NaOH have little action on the improvement of anti-sulfate.
