A significant amount of paint sludge
exists in Turkey and day by day it is on the rise. The present research reveals
investigation of construction materials production from recycled paint sludge
as aggregate replacement. The use of PS waste in concrete will constitute
positive outcome arising from the economic and environmental aspects due to the
evaluation of waste. In this study paint sludge (PS) is obtained from white
goods industry. Various PS content is used into both cement and lime separately
then physical and mechanical properties are determined in hardened condition. In this study, PS with cement and
also PS with lime were mixed separately then both were casted in their molds.
Interestingly, in the research after casting, we have observed the specimens
begun expanding. This expanding has been occurred in the first 25 min of the
experiment. Volume expansions during moist curing in the first 25 min are very
large. The expansion behavior of each specimen was measured. The binary PS with
cement (PS - cement) and also PS with lime (PS - lime) do not have good compressive
and flexural strength but tend to expansion at curing periods. Based on the
obtained results, PS has promising characteristic potential for construction
materials manufacturing applications.
