Synergistic effects of rubber-tire-powder and fluorogypsum in cement-based composite

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2021
Currently, the use of waste materials in Portland cement mixtures and the reduction of the use of clinker is important due to environmental issues. One of the waste materials of importance for the scientific community is end-of-life tires, because there ...

Where the rubber meets the road: Emerging environmental impacts of tire wear particles and their chemical cocktails

Science of the Total Environment
About 3 billion new tires are produced each year and about 800 million tires become waste annually. Global dependence upon tires produced from natural rubber and petroleum-based compounds represents a persistent and complex environmental problem with ...

Flexural behavior of steel fiber reinforced concrete beams comprising coarse and fine rubber and strengthened by CFRP sheets

Heritage and Sustainable Development, 2023
Despite having many advantages, using rubber to produce reinforced concrete members like beams is still restricted. When there is more waste tire rubber in concrete structures, rubber concrete's flexural and compressive strengths gradually decrease ...

Chemical composition and ecotoxicity of plastic and car tire rubber leachates to aquatic organisms.

Water Research, 2019
Synthetic polymer-based materials are ubiquitous in aquatic environments, where weathering processes lead to their progressive fragmentation and the leaching of additive chemicals.

Hybrid Metal–Carbon Ink for Printed Stretchable Temperature Sensors

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We prepare conductive inks for temperature sensing with silver flakes and carbon or graphite flakes in a silicone elastomer matrix. Silver dominates the temperature‐dependent conductivity, while the carbon filler network ensures the stability of the conductive pathways and retains function under strain.

Influence of the surface treatment of tire rubber residues added in mortars

Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais
In this work it was evaluated the influence tire rubber addition in mortars in order to replace part of the sand (12% by volume). It was also intended to verify if the tire rubber treatment with NaOH saturated aqueous solution causes interference on the ...
