Comparative studies on conventional concrete and self-curing concrete

Abstract The strength gaining process is essential in case of conventional concrete structures, to achieve desired properties. To achieve target strength concrete, it’s required 28 days of curing and proper hydration. Improper curing can lead to badly effects in strength and lastingness point of view. Self-curing is modern technique to cure concrete, which due to moisture content cured itself in it. The admixture helps to take good hydration while using of polymer is polyethylene glycol in conventional concrete and useful to create agents of emulsified, plasticizers, detergents, and lubricants of textile in water soluble. In the present investigation Polyethylene glycol-600 admixture in concrete would results in the strength increases compared to conventional curing. The admixture of Polyethylene Glycol-600 on weight of cement 0.3%, 0.6%, 1%, 2% was studied. The test result showing that the use of polymer in water soluble has upgrade presentation of concrete and increase of strength criteria.
