Sustainable Concrete with Recycled Aggregate from Plastic Waste: Physical–Mechanical Behavior

Applied Sciences, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 15(7), P. 3468 - 3468

In Mexico, approximately 6.5 million tons of plastic waste is generated, which 38–58% improperly managed and has the potential to leak into environment. Furthermore, producing natural aggregates associated with unsustainable use non-renewable resources. this sense, work aimed evaluate influence that recycled from have on behavior concrete. Coarse thermoplastic paint (TP) paving were prepared incorporated four mixes, concentrations 5 20%. addition, three mixes fine PET evaluated as one reference mix. The studied properties slump, compressive strength, flexural rebound number, density, absorption, porosity. results indicate both significant for in concrete, including structural use, when replacement percentages around 5% are considered, property losses not exceeding 8%. Their proposed active mobility infrastructure, up 20% analyzed study. Finally, it necessary analyze incorporation mitigating environmental impacts, well durability properties.
