POLYMER MORTAR COMPOSITES MADE WITH RECYCLED PLASTICS
Polymer mortar (PM) is a composite material formed from a resin binder and fine inorganic aggregates, such as sand or fly ash. The resulting product is a strong, durable material typically used as a protective coating in various portland cement concrete structures. This paper describes the important properties and behavior of PM materials made with unsaturated polyester resins based on recycled poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), a plastic waste, and reports on the advantages of PM in structural use.
