Thermal properties of cement based composites with incorporated crushed waste polypropylene
Original language description
For the improvement of energy efficiency of buildings, there is necessary to focus on advanced technical solution of building design resulting in building envelopes with high thermal resistance and sufficient thermal stability. Specific attention must bepaid not only to the design of building envelopes, but also to the thermal insulation of buildings subsoil. Here, new materials improving the thermal insulation properties of concrete can find use. Cement-based composites are characterized by their goodmechanical properties but they often lack a thermal insulation capability. On this account, the possibility of recycling crushed waste polypropylene (CWPP) coming from PP tubes production as lightweight aggregate instead of sand in the manufacturing ofthe cement-based composites with improved thermal insulation properties is researched in the paper. This material should find application as light-weight concrete for spread layer of floor structure, whereas the developed material will be
