Waste Polyethylene and Polypropylene Particles as Mechanical Reinforcements of Polyester Polymer Mortar: Gamma Radiation as Postcuring Treatment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The excessive use of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and polypropylene (PP) to produce materials with a very short useful life has caused environmental problems due to the lack of sustainable recycling routes and end-use ...
Gamma Rays as Modifiers of the Compressive and Flexural Properties of Polyester Polymer Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To improve the mechanical and thermal properties of materials, alternative posttreatments have been proposed. One of these posttreatments is based on the use of ionizing radiation. This work studied the effects of gamma ...
