Title Gypsum composite reinforcement with Tetra Pak-fiber-waste: Thermomechanical performance evaluation
Year 2024
Published
Abstract Using packaging waste to insulate buildings as a "zero waste" approach enhances environmental sustainability and cost savings. This study explores the utilization of long fibers extracted from Tetra Pak waste as reinforcement in gypsum-paper mortars, representing the inaugural investigation into this method. Mechanical and thermal conductivity measurements were performed to assess the effectiveness of the novel gypsum composites. Compared to conventional gypsum, the results exhibit a remarkable 34% increase in flexural strength, accompanied by a substantial decrease in both density (20%) and thermal conductivity (17%). This notable achievement is attributed to the incorporation of Tetra Pak fibers into the novel material composition. Such an innovative approach not only promises the creation of lightweight and insulating gypsum but also serves to enhance mechanical properties, thereby underscoring its sustainability benefits.
