SCCARTI 0: Studio di Compositi Cementizi Addizionati con materiali Riciclati e Transizione verso applicazioni ad Impatto 0

Use of recycled rubber from end-of-life tires and PVC pellets from the recycling of electric cables in the creation of lightweight cement mortars with improved thermal insulation, acoustic damping and vibration absorption performance. Use of carbon fiber recycled from composite materials for the development of reinforced mortars with high mechanical strength performance. Prototypes of sandwich bricks that combine the above materials in a single constructive solution: core made of rubber-mortar and PVC-mortar and sheets of fiber-reinforced mortar with recycled carbon.
