Abstract
In India, most polymer waste is thrown away while not recycling, inflicting serious issues akin to depletion of natural resources and environmental pollution. This article is to study the technical performance of sugarcane concrete coated with synthetic polyethene terephthalate (PET). The purpose is to study the influence of the strength parameters of different percentages of PET fiber coated concrete on reducing plastic. The fiber coated with sugar paint is partially added to the concrete, replacing the cement with different weight percentages: 0%, 0.5, 1%, 1.5%, 2%. The primary research of this work is the calculation of mechanical strengths. The maximum resistance is achieved by substitution 1.5% of the fiber with the load of the cement, which can conjointly increase the adhesion of the concrete and scale back the cracks within the concrete sample. Correspondingly, this work aims to evaluation the properties of HDPE polymer and characterize it as a possible substitute for coarse combination in concrete. Heating is performed at five different temperatures, specifically 160◦C to 200◦C at an increment of 10◦C excluding the control mix. Five coarse aggregate compositions with different volume ratios of crushed stone were used: HDPE, namely 0:100, 15:85, 30:70, 45:55, and 60:40. The effect of waste plastics on the workability and strength of concrete was investigated by testing freshly mixed hardened concrete. The mechanical strengths were measured and accomplished that plastic concrete is suitable for non-load-bearing materials. Use. The results show that plastic concrete is more profitable than traditional concrete
