“…These variations take place due to physical and chemical events that occur in the structures and chemical composition of their materials. In the development of engineered stone, thermal transformations occur in the curing stage because of the matrix/waste polymerization reaction [31].…”

“…Subsequently, at 382.4 • C, there is a weight loss that continues until the end of the process, at 550 • C [17]. After 600 • C, the structure undergoes another contraction, and there is a total weight loss because of the resin and the melting temperature of the waste glass, which is around 600-1117 • C, and of the quartz dust, which, at around 870 • C, becomes tridymite, a high-temperature silica polymorph [17,31].…”

Engineered Stone Produced with Glass Packaging Waste, Quartz Powder, and Epoxy Resin

Engineered stone (ENS) is a type of artificial stone composed of stone wastes bonded together by a polymeric matrix. ENS presents a profitable alternative for solid waste management, since its production adds value to the waste by reusing it as raw material and reduces environmental waste disposal. The present work’s main goal is to produce an ENS based on quartz powder waste, glass packaging waste, and epoxy resin. The wastes were size-distributed by the fine sieving method. Then, the closest-packed granulometric mixture, as well as the minimum amount of resin that would fill the voids of these mixtures, was calculated. ENS plates were prepared with 15%wt (ENS-15) and 20%wt (ENS-20) epoxy resin by vibration, compression (10 tons for 20 min at 90 °C), and vacuum of 600 mmHg. The plates were sanded and cut for physical, chemical, and mechanical tests. Scanning electron microscopy analysis of fractured specimens was performed. ENS-15 presented 2.26 g/cm3 density, 0.1% water absorption, 0.21% apparent porosity, and 33.5 MPa bend strength and was resistant to several chemical and staining agents. The results classified ENS as a high-quality coating material, technically and economically viable, with properties similar to commercial artificial stones. Therefore, the development of ENS based on waste glass and quartz powder meets the concept of sustainable development, as this proposed novel material could be marketed as a building material and simultaneously minimize the amount of these wastes that are currently disposed of in landfills.

“…Although artificial stone is a material whose composition comes mostly from mineral fillers, much research has been carried out with the incorporation of different types of wastes in polymeric matrices, with the aim of recycling and also of improving the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. Among the aggregates commonly used are particles of glass, marble, granite, quartz, steel waste, crushed stone's powder, brick waste, iron ore waste, among others, agglomerated by matrices like epoxy polyester, polyurethanes, and natural source resins [6][7][8][9][10][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] .…”

The objective of this research was to produce artificial stone plates based on granite and mirror wastes and epoxy matrix, by vibration, compression, and vacuum and to characterize them. Plates were manufactured with 15%wt epoxy resin and 85% of aggregates in the proportion of 1/3 of granite waste from Ocre Itabira gray granite and 2/3 of mirror waste. The apparent density, water absorption, and apparent porosity values were 2.22 g/cm 3 , 0.11%, and 0.25%, respectively, the flexural strength was 34.36 MPa, abrasive wear after a 1000m track was 2.28mm and the breaking height in the impact resistance test was 0.45m. In addition, the stone was resistant to several staining agents. Therefore, the technical viability of the material developed was verified, with results compatible with studies already carried out in the area, making it possible to apply it as coatings and countertops in civil construction.
