Abstract
In this study, recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles are shredded in different sizes and added to the polymer concrete composition to investigate the effect on fracture toughness and fracture energy as well as an idea to reduce environmental pollution. In order to measure the mode I fracture toughness, center cracked Brazilian disk (CBD) specimens are manufactured with 20 wt% epoxy resin and 80 wt% quartz aggregate in the size of...
