Optimization of the Technological Process of Polymer Concrete Processing with a Change in the Magnetic Field

As a result of experimental studies, a positive effect of a magnetic field on the properties of epoxy composites has been established. The article investigated the influence of an electromagnetic field created by using a constant electric current of various strengths passed through a rectangular metal plate, which was the base of the molds in the manufacture of samples from epoxy compositions. Epoxy compositions were made on the basis of epoxy-diane resin. The composites were cured with polyethylene polyamine. Pyrite cinders served as a filler in the filled compositions. In the course of the study, the following were experimentally determined: compressive strength, tensile strength in bending, dynamic modulus of elasticity, fracture energy and microhardness. The results obtained show an improvement in the physical and mechanical properties of polymer composites processed using a magnetic field.
