Reuse of waste glass in building brick production

open access: yesWaste Management & Research: The Journal for a Sustainable Circular Economy, 2009
The main objective of this study was to investigate the effect of waste glass addition on the properties of fired clay brick. Milled waste glass was added into brick clay at a ratio of 0% (control sample), 2.5, 5 and 10%. Four different series of test samples were produced by extrusion pressing. Samples were fired at 850, 950 and 1050 °C.

Treatments on Polypropylene Macro Synthetic Fibers for Improving Adhesion in Structural Concrete Reinforcement: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Surface functionalization of polypropylene macrofibers to enhance fiber‐matrix interfacial bonding. ABSTRACT Concrete is the most used higher compressive strength‐building material, albeit brittle to tensile, and flexural loads. Polypropylene (PP) synthetic polymeric macrofibres are commonly employed as reinforcement material to prevent this situation ...
