Utilization of recycled plastic in concrete production
Original language description
The environmental aspects of sustainable development in the construction industry consist in the utilization of secondary raw materials in design and construction of new structures. Recycling of waste plastics reduces environmental impacts such as global warming, raw material and energy consumption, and total environmental pollution. A complicated recycling process of waste plastics puts pressure on scientific community to find new, more efficient ways of using this waste in the construction industry. The paper deals with the behavior and mechanical properties of a material called polymer concrete, which is composed of aggregate and plastic waste, which replaces cement as a binder. This composite has a relatively high tensile strength compared to conventional concrete and brittle fracture behavior. In the next phases of the research project the optimization of the production technologies and the composition of the composite will be provided.
