Abstract
Three unsaturated polyester resins were prepared and cross linked with styrene monomer in presense of two different types of local sand, namely, glass sand from the om Temin area and untreated 3and from Nasr city suburb [Egyptian Desert], to produce sand composites. The mechanical properties of the formed composites using different ratios of polyester to sand were measured. The effect of the polyester type; polyester/sand ratio and the mesh size of sand grains on the mechanical properties was also investigated.
