Design of recycled rubber construction material based on its hygrothermal performance

Due to inflation and high energy costs in Argentina, efficient construction technologies are needed. This study explores recycled rubber and polyurethane mixtures for opaque building envelopes. Two configurations were evaluated: rubber as aggregate in bicomponent foam and as a base with foam as bind...

This study explores recycled rubber and polyurethane mixtures for opaque building envelopes. Two configurations were evaluated: rubber as aggregate in bicomponent foam and as a base with foam as binder. Thermal conductivity and apparent density tests were conducted. Two compositions were selected for non-load-bearing walls and roofs, assessed according to Argentina’s Technical Suitability Certification (CAT), meeting Level B efficiency under IRAM 11605 in the country’s most populated areas. Construction systems were proposed for locations with winter design temperatures down to -5 °C and for all bioclimatic zones in summer. Results include thermal and hygrothermal characterization of the materials and systems, as well as benefits, limitations, and future research lines regarding their construction application. Ante la inflación y los altos costos energéticos en Argentina, se necesitan tecnologías constructivas eficientes. Este estudio explora mezclas de caucho reciclado y poliuretano para envolventes opacas edilicias. Se evaluaron dos configuraciones: caucho como agregado en espuma bicomponente y como base con espuma como aglomerante. Se realizaron ensayos de conductividad térmica y densidad aparente. Posteriormente fueron seleccionadas dos composiciones para muros y techos no portantes y se evaluaron según la Certificación de Aptitud Técnica (CAT) de Argentina, cumpliendo con el Nivel B de eficiencia según la Norma IRAM 11605 en las zonas más pobladas del país. Además, se propusieron sistemas constructivos aplicables en localidades con temperaturas de diseño de invierno de hasta -5°C y en todas las zonas bioclimáticas del país durante el verano. Los resultados incluyen la caracterización térmica e higrotérmica de los materiales y sistemas, así como beneficios, limitaciones y futuras líneas de investigación sobre su aplicación constructiva.   Instituto de Investigaciones Tecnológicas para el Diseño Ambiental del Hábitat Humano 2025-07-31 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares application/pdf https://revistas.unne.edu.ar/index.php/arq/article/view/8469 10.30972/arq.258469 Arquitecno; Núm. 25 (2025): Julio; 1-11 2683-9881 0328-0896 spa https://revistas.unne.edu.ar/index.php/arq/article/view/8469/8047 Derechos de autor 2025 Halimi Sulaiman (Autor) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0
