Research Progress of the Modification in Sulfur Concrete

Abstract

Sulfur concrete (SC) is a relatively new type of construction material with advantages of the strong corrosion resistance and quick setting and hardening, which has been applied in construction engineering. SC is brittle with large hardening shrinkage, so it needs to be modified in the process of use. How SC can be modified is a key point of its improvement. In view of the existing research results, the research status of the modification in SC is summarized and concluded in this paper to generate some insights, including the understanding of variations in temperature, effects of molding methods and the addition of fillers and modifiers.
