Study on Modification of Waste Rubber Powder in Cement-Based Composites Mixed with Waste Rubber Powder

Polymer-Cement Composites Containing Waste Perlite Powder

Polymer-cement composites (PCCs) are materials in which the polymer and mineral binder create an interpenetrating network and co-operate, significantly improving the performance of the material. On the other hand, the need for the utilization of waste materials is a demand of sustainable construction. Various mineral powders, such as fly ash or blast-furnace slag, are successfully used for the ...

Effect on Surface Temperature Reduction of Asphalt Pavements with Cement–Based Materials Containing Ceramic Waste Powder

Study On Waste Tyre Rubber As Concrete Aggregates

At present the disposal of waste tyres is becoming a major waste management problem in the world. It is estimated that 1.2 billions of waste tyre rubber produced globally per year. It is estimated that 11% of post consumer tyres are exported and 27% are sent to landfill, stockpiled or dumped illegally and only 4% is used for civil engineering projects. Hence efforts have been taken to identify ...

A Study on the Effects of Waste Rubber Tire Dimensions on Fine-Grained Soil Behavior

Mashhad city is located on alluvial deposits where the expanded area of this city, especially the central and eastern areas surrounding Imam Reza holy shrine, are built on weak and fine-grained deposits. Therefore, the soil improvement would be inevitable due to construction of high-rise buildings such as hotels and commercial complexes in these areas, as well as restructuring old buildin...

Chlorinated-maleinized Guayule Rubber in Powder Coatings: No Voc Thermosetting Chlorinated Rubber Coatings

Chlorinated rubber, the addition and substitution reaction product of natural rubber and chlorine gas, is knOWn for its low Water vapor permeability, good chemical resistance, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, and flame retardant properties.' Consequently, it is used as a coating component in a.variety of coating applications including marine coatings, swimming pool coatings, and corro...
