Investigating the feasibility of a reuse scenario for textile fibres recovered from end-of-life tyres.

TL;DR: A new closed-loop scenario for textile fibres based on material reuse for bituminous conglomerates is proposed and validated to verify the technical, environmental, financial, and economic feasibility of the proposed treatment process and reuse scenario and shows that no specific issues are foreseen for the future implementation in real industrial applications.

Experimental investigation of mechanical properties of crumbed rubber concrete containing natural zeolite

TL;DR: In this paper, the main aim is to improve mechanical properties of crumbed rubber concrete (CRC) by adding natural zeolite as partial replacement of cement, and the surface treatment of the rubber particles was done with a 1'M aqueous solution of NaOH.

Sustainable approach for recycling waste tire rubber and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) to produce green concrete with resistance against sulfuric acid attack

TL;DR: In this article, a study on the potential use of waste crumb tire rubber and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) particles to produce sustainable concrete has been presented.

Chloride permeability of recycled aggregate concrete under the coupling effect of freezing-thawing, elevated temperature or mechanical damage

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the chloride permeability of RAC under the coupling effect of freezing-thawing, elevated temperature or mechanical damage, and found that the chloride penetration frequently leads to a steel corrosion and reduces the durability of reinforced concrete.
Journal ArticleDOI

Eco-friendly concrete with scrap-tyre-rubber-based aggregate – Properties and thermal stability

TL;DR: A detailed analysis of rubber concrete prepared from used tyre rubber-based aggregate involving testing of its mechanical, basic physical, microstructural, hygric and thermal properties, and behaviour after exposure to elevated temperatures is presented in this article.

Concrete made with used tyre aggregate: durability-related performance

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of concrete that contains rubber aggregate made from used tyres (CTA) has been studied since the early 1990s, and the results showed that 5%, 10% and 15% of the volume of natural aggregate (NA) were replaced by aggregate derived from used tires (TA).

Hardened properties of concrete mixtures containing pre-coated crumb rubber and silica fume

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined an approach to pre-treat crumb rubber in conjunction with the addition of supplementary cementitious materials in order to mitigate the loss of mechanical properties in rubberized concrete.
Journal ArticleDOI

Properties of concrete prepared with waste tyre rubber particles of uniform and varying sizes

TL;DR: In this paper, three groups of singly-sized rubber particle samples (3mm, 0.5mm and 0.3mm) and one sample of continuous size grading (prepared by blending the three singlysized samples to form the same particle distribution curve of sand) were used to replace 20% of the natural fine aggregate by volume.

Properties of concrete paving blocks made with waste marble

TL;DR: In this article, the paving blocks based on two cement types were used to replace aggregate with waste marble, and physical and mechanical tests were performed on blocks so produced, and the cement type turns out to be an important factor.

Workability, mechanical properties, and chemical stability of a recycled tyre rubber-filled cementitious composite

TL;DR: The workability and mechanical properties of mortar containing shredded automobile and truck tyres were evaluated in this paper, where two different shapes of rubber particles were used as constituents of mortar: (1) granules about 2 mm in diameter, and (2) shreds having two sizes which were, nominally, 5.5 mm×1.2 mm and 10.8 mm × 1.8mm (length×diameter).
