Abstract

This paper aims to verify the use of recycled foam plastics to produce lightweight concrete. Two types of recycled foam plastics (ethyl vinyl acetate and cable insulator) and their mixture in ratios 3:1, 1:1 and 1:3 were used as filler. An organic-based adhesive, Conipur 360, was used as a binder. The evaluation method included verify one of basic physical properties – bulk density. At the same time, thermal properties and strength characteristics of the samples were monitored.
