Abstract
Abstract A cartridge for use in fixing an anchor bolt that encludes a fluidtight constructed casing having therein a first fluidtight chamber and a second fluidtight chamber separated from the first chamber, the first chamber containing a resin composed mainly of an ester of an epoxy resin with an organic acid comprising acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or a mixture thereof, the second chamber containing a curing agent for the resin. By the use of such a cartridge in fixing an anchor bolt to a base, there can be attained a quick fixation of the anchor bolt to the base, a high adhesive strength between the anchor bolt and the base, and a high chemical resistance of the cured resin, with little or no lowering of the adhesive strength for an prolonged period of time.
