Desenvolvimento de uma manta térmica para construção civil utilizando resíduos de polipropileno

Abstract

The textile industry is one of the sectors that produces the most and generates employment, Consequently it is one of the sectors that generates the most effluents and solid residues. This work proposes the reuse of solid waste from polypropylene fabrics, generated in textile confections, for the manufacture of a thermal insulating blanket by means of thermal consolidation. Thermal insulation blankets are widely used in civil construction, to maintain the thermal comfort of environments, causing the well-being of man in the environment, increasing its performance, and increasing the conservation of energy in the environment, avoiding wastes with heating and cooling.
