UTILIZATION OF RECYCLED PLASTIC TO OBTAIN A NEW PERMEABLE FLOOR
Journal Title: Periódico Tchê Química - Year 2017, Vol 14, Issue 27
Abstract
With the growth of the construction market, it is necessary to develop new products. Taking this into account, this article proposes a study using recycled plastic in the development of porous floors for civil construction. The intention is to reduce the volume of this solid waste in the city and in the landfill, in addition to using less natural resources, such as wood and steel. For the development of the work, plastic bottles were used pets, in addition, the materials developed were tested in the laboratory, in which the necessary criteria were raised for eventual approval of the same. The results show that 99.5% of the water passes through the material developed, which is a very satisfactory result. The results achieved with respect to abrasion resistance, limpability, chemical resistance to attack and surface appearance were equally favorable. Therefore, it was observed that the material developed is suitable for use in the function of porous floors, besides contributing to the reduction of plastic waste in the city, to allocate this waste and to use less natural resources. These results prove that the product would be adequate to aid in urban drainage, since it would contribute to the surface runoff, and would also reduce the volume of solid waste.
