Towards Next-Generation Sustainable Composites Made of Recycled Rubber, Cenospheres, and Biobinder

The utilisation of industrial residual products to develop new value-added materials and reduce their environmental footprint is one the critical challenges science industry. Development multifunctional bio-based composite an excellent opportunity for effective a right step in Green Deal’s direction as approved by European Commission. Keeping various issues mind, we describe manufacturing characterisation three-component composites this work. key components are binder made peat, devulcanised crumb rubber (DCR) from used tyres, part fly ash, i.e., cenosphere (CS). three-phase were prepared form block investigate mechanical properties density, granules determination sorption water oil products. We also investigated properties’ dependence on DCR CS fraction. It was found that maximum compression strength (in form) observed composition without addition 79.3 MPa, while second-highest value 11.2 MPa with 27.3 wt.% CS. For compositions bio-binder content 17.4 55.8 wt.%, contents ranging 11.0 62.0 compressive range 1.1 2.0 MPa. Liquid-sorption analysis (water diesel) showed saturation liquids, both cases, set after 35 min ranged 1.05 1.4 g·g ?1 water, 0.77 1.25 g·g?1 diesel. 90% diesel fuel came 10 min.
