Waste Recycled PET as a Binder in Polymer Mortar
Recycled waste plastic (PET) use as binder, filler and aggregate in polymer concrete or mortar is one of the best solution for plastic waste disposal problem. In this work, waste plastic (PET) were converted into unsaturated polyester resin through glycolysis process. This resin was used as a binding material in polymer mortar. Three different resin content (10, 15, 18%) was used. The best physical and mechanical properties were showed by MIX C polymer mortar with 18 wt% resin, 32 wt% filler and 50 wt% sand. Results of this study reveal that feasibility of using recycled PET waste as resin or binding material in polymer mortar. Use of waste plastic as binder increases mechanical properties of concrete as well as reduces hazard to environment by utilizing plastic and reducing cement consumption. Polymer mortar prepared from recycled PET flakes can be used for many constructional applications such as for sewer pipes, repairing work etc.
