Microwave radiation treatment to improve the strength of recycled plastic aggregate concrete

In this study, microwave radiation pre-treatment (MRP) of three recycled plastic aggregates, namely; Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and Polypropylene (PP), was carried out to enhance the bond strength between the plastic aggregates and the concrete matrix. Five co...
