Materials are one of the basic elements or needs for continuing human beings’ life living and they are used for structural and nonstructural, biomedical, thermal, or other applications. In many types of materials, Composite materials are used in different sectors. The increasing need for eco-friendly, low-density, and lightweight product production...

Tetra Pak multilayer containers are used to preserve food for long periods of time and at low cost. Unfortunately, only 30% of the packaging used is recycled, and is not reused in any application, making it highly polluting materials. For these reasons, in this work 1x1 mm particles were obtained from Tetra Pak containers, which were mixed in amounts of 1, 2, 3 and 10% by weight with unsaturated polyester resin (UPR). These composite materials were subjected to tensile, Charpy impact and water absorption tests. The results show that with the addition of Tetra Pak particles, improvements of 50% in deformation, 47% in elastic modulus, 44% in tensile strength and 36% in impact resistance were obtained. The maximum water absorption was 0.17%.
... Potting compound, monolithic systems made from cotton material and phenolic resin, as well as metal inserts between the middle and face sheets, are often used to locally enhance stiffness and compressive strength. These materials present major challenges to automation due to limited variety caused by cumbersome certification processes, as well as the complex behavior of available materials including rigidity, anisotropy, and hydrophilicity, complicating handling [16]- [18]. ...
