Original Abstract

At present we can often see a development of new perspective materials using waste raw materials and not only in building industries. Still growing industrial waste amount together with not utilizable substances whose recycling is quite energy and finance demanding are the reasons. In addition it also brings a notable stress for the environment which further influences human health. The paper deals with a development of insulating materials based on waste PUR granulate generated as waste during PUR foam panel shaping. The aim was to develop insulating materials with good thermal insulation and eventually acoustic properties as suitable alternatives to present commonly used insulation materials in the market. Cement and subsequently PUR foams were selected as binders for waste granulate. Utilization of secondary raw materials in order to get new insulating materials with high added value is contribution of such a development.

Keywords

Waste PUR granulate, PUR foam, new thermal insulation, secondary raw materials.
