The use of environmentally acceptable plastic materials based on cement and polymer composites with out of consideration to their physical properties

The aim of the research is to find possibilities for the re-use of environmentally eligible plastic waste as one of the options as a filler in light concretes. The plastic waste was obtained by recycling the plastics from the packaging of electrical cables, Ethylene-vinyl acetate and waste from expanded polypropylene in various proportions. All plastics are included among the medium-sized recyclable plastics according to the degree of their recycling. The experimental part of this work is devoted to verify the impact of the dose of fillers on the observed physical properties (bulk density, heat-technical parameters, sound absorption) of light concrete.
