Outcomes of research regarding some characteristics of recycled bricks made of plastic tarpaulins hdpe utilized in ben tre aquaculture

Abstract

HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) plastic is frequently used in aquaculture, particularly for covering shrimp lakes with plastic tarpaulins. Although this plastic possesses numerous remarkable qualities, it is frequently overlooked following its use. HDPE plastic, on the other hand, is reusable as a material for construction due to its advantageous properties. The results of a study on the reuse of HDPE plastic to create plastic flooring tiles are presented in this article. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing and meeting the same aesthetic standards as cement concrete floor tiles, HDPE plastic tiles also possess excellent compressive and bending strengths. Additionally, HDPE plastic tiles are resistant to abrasion and virtually do not absorb water. This research facilitates the development of a flooring tile option that satisfies construction specifications while also being environmentally friendly.

Keywords: Plastic HDPE flooring tiles; compression test; bending test; abrasion test; water absorption test.
