“…The potential advantages of such waste for panel manufacturing can be considered as low energy demand, costeffectiveness, easiness in recovery, and usage of whole material without leaving further waste when compared to conventional methods for wood-based panel production (Yilgor et al 2012). Previous studies suggested that panel products from waste cartons could be an alternative raw material in the laminate industry by using suitable adhesive due to its improved mechanical properties, increased water resistance, and high biological performance against decay fungi and insects (Murathan et al 2007;Ayrilmis et al 2008;Sen et al 2010;Hidalgo 2011). Thermal degradation characteristics and pyrolysis characteristics of TP waste were also studied (Kanturk Figen et al 2013;Wu and Chang 2001;Korkmaz et al 2009).…”

Manufacturing panels from Tetra Pak ® (TP) packaging material might be an alternative to conventional wood-based panels. This study evaluated some chemical and physical properties as well as biological, weathering, and fire performance of panels with and without zinc borate (ZnB) by using shredded TP packaging cartons. Such packaging material, a worldwide well-known multilayer beverage packaging system, is composed of cellulose, low-density polyethylene (LDPE), and aluminum (Al). Panels produced from waste TP packaging material were also examined by FT-IR to understand the fungal deterioration and extent of degradation after accelerated weathering. Before FT-IR investigations, panel specimens were ground under nitrogen atmosphere due to nonuniformity of the composite material. The FT-IR results showed that fungal degradation occurred in the natural polymer of the panel matrix. Although the natural polymer is mostly composed of cellulose, there were also small amounts of polyoses and lignin. It was seen that especially polyose and lignin bands in FT-IR spectra were affected more than cellulose bands by fungal attack. No changes were observed by the fungi in the plastic component (LDPE) of the matrix; however, LDPE seemed more sensitive to weathering than cellulose. Incorporation of ZnB at loading level of 1% (w/w) did not contribute fire performance of the panels when compared to control panel specimens, while a loading level of 10% improved fire performance considering test parameters such as mass loss, ignition time and peak heat release rate.

“…PS ash increased the strength of extremely stiff concrete; moreover, 2 Advances in Materials Science and Engineering it has high water absorption [8,9]. Different composite materials have been produced by incorporating cellulosic materials for improvement of mechanical properties: (a) bending behavior is improved by incorporating cellulose fibers from waste paper; (b) toughness and tensile behavior of thin-sheet cement products are improved by adding fibers of recycled waste paper; (c) shore hardness (SH) values are increased as the resin concentration increases in composites elaborated with Tetra Pak and resin materials; and (d) maximum of strengthening is achieved for cement matrixes when adding plant-fibers and man-made cellulose fibers (from 8 to 10 wt%); the costs are reduced with this substitution [4,5,9,10].…”

The development of the packaging industry has promoted indiscriminately the use of disposable packing as Tetra Pak, which after a very short useful life turns into garbage, helping to spoil the environment. One of the known processes that can be used for achievement of the compatibility between waste materials and the environment is the gamma radiation, which had proved to be a good tool for modification of physicochemical properties of materials. The aim of this work is to study the effects of waste cellulose from Tetra Pak packing and gamma radiation on the mechanical properties of cement concrete. Concrete specimens were elaborated with waste cellulose at concentrations of 3, 5, and 7 wt% and irradiated at 200, 250, and 300 kGy of gamma dose. The results show highest improvement on the mechanical properties for concrete with 3 wt% of waste cellulose and irradiated at 300 kGy; such improvements were related with the surface morphology of fracture zones of cement concrete observed by SEM microscopy.

This study investigates the feasibility of using recycled low density polyethylene (LDPE) and aluminum of Tetra Pak, to manufacture experimental composite rigid board. The rigid board was made through a hot press. The effects of tensile, flexural, and water absorption process on LDPE/Al plastic composites were studied. Based on the findings in this work, it appears that recycled materials can be used to manufacture value-added panels without having any significant adverse influence on board properties. It was also found that the compounds of LDPE/Al are significantly affected by the effect of compaction pressure during processing, especially in the tensile strength and water absorption, were significant. The composite presents low water absorption, and acceptable tensile strength.
