Abstract

Zinc oxide (ZnO) powders were mixed with Polyacrylic Acid (PAA) to form waterless cements. The optimal ZnO/PAA ratio in terms of mechanical strength was found. Also, the role of the relation ZnO to PAA, the curing time, and the strain rate on the final properties of the composites was studied.
