| Sumario: | The use of recycled materials in construction is significant in the current context. In this regard, the use of plastics from waste electronic and electrical equipment (WEEE), stabilized by means of the Core-shell strategy, is considered. In this work, the physical and mechanical characterization of mortars made with this type of materials is extended with a study of their thermal behavior. Methodologically, experimental quali-quantitative research is proposed. In analytical terms, the results of the thermal conductivity of different types of mortars made with core-shell aggregates and other light aggregates for load relief are presented. Thermal conductivity was determined according to IRAM Standard 11559:1995 and correlated with the density of the material. The results obtained show a decrease in the thermal conductivity of the mortars, with values between 0.15 and 0.20 W/mK, which is presented as an advantage to promote their use in construction |
