This paper deals with the effects of ambient temperature, catalyst and accelerator contents on the working life of lightweight polyester mortars. At 10, 20 and 30°C, the lightweight polyester mortars using four lightweight aggregates are prepared with various catalyst and accelerator contents, and tested for working life. As a result, the working life can be controlled by varying the catalyst and accelerator contents at the respective ambient temperatures. Empirical formulas for predicting their working life are successfully proposed.
