EVALUATION OF USING A LOCAL WASTE RECYCLING TECHNOLOGY IN THE MANUFACTURE OF SANDWICH PANELS FOR A FOAM HOUSES

Abstract

The manufacturing of the panels was done using waste recycling technology by using industrial cork waste as a basic material in the installation of the sandwich panels, then the characteristics of these panels were studied, the most important of which was the adhesion of the manufactured material with the upper and lower panels of the sandwich panel, and then we proceeded in our study to study the waffle panel. The manufacturing process takes place by converting industrial cork pieces brought from local market waste into small particles that are often clusters using rubbing with a rough surface, then introducing these industrial cork pellets into a mixture consisting of two materials; the first of which is a urethane polymer, which considered an incubator. Industrial cork pellets are included in the damaged construction materials, as is the second material used in the installation, Fursan tile fix brand ceramic adhesive. The best quantities of the mixture were obtained, allowing for the preparation of samples and models with very good mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties in terms of durability and by examining the properties of compressive strength, thermal insulation, and resistance to acid and base chemical corrosion. The results showed that the prepared product has an extremely high compressive capacity. Just as the thermal insulation value is comparable to that of white thermiston bricks, the prepared product's resistance to chemical corrosion is very high, and the corrosion process is almost nonexistent, giving the new product a wide range of desirable properties. particularly in the field of construction, not to mention a critical feature such as speed. The preparation is high because it falls within a maximum range of thirty minutes, with ease of manufacturing and molding to the required shape, lightweight, and the ability to cast in very large areas. After more than a year of production, the mechanical properties were measured, and it was discovered that the mechanical properties increased significantly and noticeably with the increase in progress in the field.
