HDPE fiberglass reinforced. Application on roofs

Keywords: HDPE, recycling, fiberglass, lightweight roofs, thermal analysis

Abstract

A large amount of plastic waste makes it a raw material source through recycling. High-density polyethylene is the second most consumed and produced plastic in Mexico and globally. This research aims to design a composite material with a matrix of recycled high-density polyethylene reinforced by short glass fiber, class E, generated to produce structural profiles used in trusses for light roofs of great span. The mechanical characterization of the material has been carried out to know the properties of compressive and tensile stresses. Furthermore, this new material's density and linear thermal expansion were evaluated to get the best production parameters to achieve thermal stability. The results obtained from the mechanical and physical properties will be statistically presented. These results showed the usefulness of the material according to the analysis and structural design applied to architecture.
