Effect of Rubber Heat Treatment on Rubberized-Concrete Mechanical Performance

Journal of Composites Science, 2022
To eliminate the unfavorable effect of the accumulation of end-of-life car tires on the environment, many studies have been conducted to recycle those tires in concrete as a partial or full replacement of its natural aggregates. However, the produced rubberized concrete suffers from low compressive strength due to low adhesion at the rubber/cement ...
