REUTILIZAÇÃO DO PÓ DE MDF COMO AGREGADO NA PRODUÇÃO DE BLOCOS MACIÇOS PARA ALVENARIA

Abstract

This study aims to verify the feasibility of using MDF powder as a constituent in massive blocks for masonry without structural function. This waste has characteristics that make it impossible to use in various applications, due to its high risk of contamination, being classified in accordance with regulations, as a waste of the highest environmental hazard. Thus, we sought to use it in the way it is found in furniture industries, eliminating any form of inertization of its characteristics. The agglutination of this powder with gypsum and water proved, in preliminary studies, to be very promising, forming after the curing period a mass of light color, odorless and lighter than traditional ceramic bricks.
