New mortar made from recycled plastic helps reduce heat loss

NEWCASTLE University researchers have developed a mortar made from recycled plastic and silica aerogel which it says improves insulation and reduces plastic waste. The team developed the cement mortar mix by replacing sand with silica aerogel and recycled PET plastic which they then showed improved thermal insulation and weighs less. Aerogels are known for their high insulation properties and are increasingly used for thermal insulation, particu…
