The abundance of waste plastic is a major issue for the sustainability of the environment as
plastic pollutes rivers, land, and oceans. However, the versatile behavior of plastic (it is …

The amount of residues generated by agriculture, industrial, or urban activities continuously
increases and, consequently, demands several methods for their correct management. The …

In recent decades, several studies have considered the use of plastic waste as a partial
substitute for aggregate in green concrete. Such concrete has been limited to non-structural …

In this study, recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles are shredded in different
sizes and added to the polymer concrete composition to investigate the effect on fracture …

This study aims to develop a novel, low-shrinkage, and lightweight polymer concrete
(LWPC) with high-temperature resistance that is adopted in the anticorrosion of wet flue gas …

Recently, polymer concrete (PC) has been widely used in many civil engineering
applications. PC shows superiority in major physical, mechanical, and fracture properties …

Epoxy polymer concrete (EPC) exhibits outstanding properties, including high strength,
corrosion resistance, and durability. In recent years, EPC has found extensive application in …

This experimental investigates presents the use of three types of plastic wastes as fine
aggregates in concrete as an effective way to deal with the scarcity of natural aggregate and …

In recent decades, researchers have used plastic to replace natural aggregates (NAs), or as
filler and fibre within the concrete. This particular paper puts forward a review that gives …

Polymer concrete (PC) is a composite material that consists of mineral fillers (gravel, sand)
and a polymer binder whose role is to replace the cement hydrate binders. Its properties …
