Effect of Treated Polyethylene Waste on some Mechanical Properties of Cement Mortar

In the present work, the properties of Polyethylene Waste cement mortar containing Polyethylene Waste treated by a reactive material are tested and compared with normal Polyethylene Waste and normal cement mortar. The Polyethylene, which is cured by a different reactive material such as: (cement, a fly ash and silica fume) is used as fine as aggregate a volumetric fractional replacing of the sand in a cement mortar. The percent of replacement was 10% by volume, density, compressive strength, modulus of rupture, and absorption are tested for all mixes at variable ages. The current results display that the cure of Polyethylene by cement were significantly improves the characteristics of Polyethylene cement mortar. Moreover, the results show that all treatment improved properties of cement mortar as a compared with Polyethylene without treatment.
