  2. Filler (materials) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filler_(materials)

    Plastic consumption uses by field. Filler materials are particles added to resin or binders (plastics, composites, concrete) that can improve specific properties, make the product cheaper, or a mixture of both. [1] The two largest segments for filler material use is elastomers and plastics. [2]

  3. Bulk density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_density

    The density of quartz is around 2.65 g/cm 3 but the (dry) bulk density of a mineral soil is normally about half that density, between 1.0 and 1.6 g/cm 3. In contrast, soils rich in soil organic carbon and some friable clays tend to have lower bulk densities ( <1.0 g/cm 3 ) due to a combination of the low-density of the organic materials ...

  4. Properties of concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_concrete

    Concrete has a very low coefficient of thermal expansion, and as it matures concrete shrinks. All concrete structures will crack to some extent, due to shrinkage and tension. Concrete which is subjected to long-duration forces is prone to creep. The density of concrete varies, but is around 2,400 kilograms per cubic metre (150 lb/cu ft). [1]

    Plastic is the generic name for a family of synthetic materials derived from petrochemicals. It is often product of two or more components. It is often product of two or more components. There are many families of plastics and polymers being used in construction industry, such as acrylics , composites , expanded polystyrene , polycarbonates ...

  6. Polymer concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer_concrete

    Polymer concrete is a type of concrete that uses a polymer to replace lime-type cements as a binder. One specific type is epoxy granite , where the polymer used is exclusively epoxy . In some cases the polymer is used in addition to portland cement to form Polymer Cement Concrete (PCC) or Polymer Modified Concrete (PMC). [ 1 ]

    Starting material was 19.0 flint, 37.0 feldspar, 7.0 Edgar plastic kaolin, 22.0 Edgar Nocarb clay, and 15.0 Kentucky old mine No. 4 ball clay, ball milled for 15 hours, slip cast and fired to 1250 °C; 25% open pores; bulk density 2.5 g ⋅ cm −3.

  8. Sheet moulding compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_moulding_compound

    Sheet moulding compound (SMC) or sheet moulding composite is a ready to mould glass-fibre reinforced polyester material primarily used in compression moulding. [1] The sheet is provided in rolls weighing up to 1000 kg.

  9. Polypropylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polypropylene

    The density of PP is between 0.895 and 0.93 g/cm 3. Therefore, PP is the commodity plastic with the lowest density. With lower density, moldings parts with lower weight and more parts of a certain mass of plastic can be produced. Unlike polyethylene, crystalline and amorphous regions differ only slightly in their density.
