Examination of the effects of CaCOᶟ reinforced and unreinforced polypropylenes which is substituted with a fine aggregate on traditional concrete properties

Polypropylene with low density and high heat, corrosion resistance is becoming increasingly more attractive for the building materials sector. However, the use of polypropylene alone has some disadvantages in terms of reducing the mechanical strength of the building material. Polypropylene composites are preferred in order to eliminate this disadvantage in polypropylene construction materials applications. In this study, the thermal conductivity, electrical resistance, 3, 7, 28-day compressive strength, 28-day tensile strength and water absorption ratio of concrete containing CaCOᶟ-reinforced polypropylene were determined as quality criteria. In the experiments, 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% of CaCOᶟ reinforced polypropylene was used instead of fine aggregate. The reinforced concrete properties of filled CaCOᶟ/PP have a 28 day compressive strength of 34.5% lower than that of the control concrete, 24.7% lower thermal conductivity and 50.7% higher electrical resistance.
