Properties. Sodium silicates are crystalline solids that have a glassy appearance. The common terms for an aqueous solution of sodium silicate are water glass and liquid glass. They produce alkaline solutions, since they are soluble in water. This chemical compound is soluble is …

The recycled carpet waste has been successfully used for concrete reinforcement by using the waste carpet fibers. Polypropylene Fiber Reinforced (PFR) concrete:

Using Recycled Glass in Concrete Conventional concrete aggregate consists of sand (fine aggregate) and various sizes and shapes of gravel or stones. However, there is a growing interest in substituting alternative aggregate materials, largely as a potential use for recycled materials. While there is significant research on many different materials for aggregate substitutes (such as granulated ...

Waste glass shows great potential for mainstream use in geopolymers due to its chemical and physical homogeneity as well as its high content of amorphous silica, which could eliminate the need for sodium silicate. ... when care is given to consider the compositional and physical properties of the glass in mixture design.

Density of waste, i.e., its mass per unit volume (kg/m 3), is a critical factor in the design of a solid waste management system, e.g., the design of sanitary landfills, storage, types of collection and transport vehicles, etc. To explain, an efficient operation of a landfill …

Waste glass and natural sand have approximately the same physical properties, as shown in Table 3.The comparison between the properties of waste glass and the properties of natural sand shows that the absorption rate of waste glass is lower than that of sand by 14%, i.e. this means that concrete made up with glass as an aggregate has a lower absorption rate for water [].

Several studies have been carried out to examine the impact of the use of glass waste on the behavior of the produced concrete, noticing that the content of glass waste influences the concrete's ...

Waste glass can be categorized by three main types, soda-lime glass, borosilicate glass, and lead glass with their chemical compositions displayed in Table 1.Soda-lime glass is generally used to make container glass (e.g. beverage bottles) and plate glass (e.g. windowpanes), with borosilicate glass being used for insulation and laboratory glassware, and lead glass being used for domestic ...

The waste was classified as non-hazardous and non-inert, with physical and chemical properties suitable for use in SCC composition, as fine aggregate or mineral addition. Five mixtures of SCC were developed, in order to determine the waste influence in both fresh and hardened concrete. The properties in the fresh state were reached.

All glass fibers described in this article are de-rived from compositions containing silica. They exhibit useful bulk properties such as hardness, transparency, resistance to chemical attack, sta-bility, and inertness, as well as desirable fiber properties such as strength, flexibility, and stiff-ness (Ref 2). Glass fibers are used in the manu-

Waste glass powder in appropriate proportion could be used to resist chemical attack. The aim of the project work is to use glass powder in the range of 5% to 40% as replacement of cement and concrete cube strength compared with conventional concrete cubes.
