Study on Utilization of waste polypropylene particles on the strength of concrete

Abstract

in this analysis, evaluated the impact on the mechanical functions of concrete by using of polypropylene (PP) particles in concrete. Polypropylene waste employed in a various type of construction applications in which disposal cup is one of them. Waste plastic disposal cup is a major reason of solid waste disposal and difficult to reuse and recycle and plastic if burnt releases many harmful gases, which are dangerous for human health, but if we use waste polypropylene particles in concrete then there is no need of recycle and can be used in huge amount without any harmful effect. It’s also cumbersome to biodegradation. On the other side construction organization is in the use of cost effective, material for making high quality strength of concrete structure. PP particles are added at the concrete with 1%, 2%, 3% & 4% of fine aggregates and compared with control mix. In this study experimental work was using M25 mix. Then analyze the difference between values of results with conventional concrete. Using of waste plastic particles protect natural resources and also reduce the dead load of a building as a result of its low unit weight.
