Abstract

The uncontrolled extraction of natural resources for cement and aggregate production has led the construction industry towards exploring eco-friendly materials. This study investigates the potential of using ceramic insulator waste (CIW) as a partial substitute for natural river sand in rendering mortar, examining its mechanical strength, thermal properties, serviceability, and sustainability. Unlike other ceramic wastes, ceramic insulators are manufactured at high temperatures, resulting in a hard, thermally stable, and fire-resistant material. Previous research has touched upon using CIW as a fine aggregate, focussing only on its compressive strength and porosity in concrete, leaving a research gap regarding its performance in rendering mortar and its sustainability merits. Our findings show a notable enhancement in mortar properties with up to 50% CIW addition, showcasing a 33% and 34% increase in compressive and adhesive strength, respectively. Remarkably, the 50% CIW mortar mix demonstrated better resilience against acid exposure and high temperatures, with only a 2% reduction in compressive strength and weight over time in an acidic environment and a lesser decline in compressive strength and mass loss when exposed to around 800 °C heat compared to sand-based mortar. The thermal conductivity test revealed a 20% decrease, indicating better insulation. The sustainability assessment via the EnvScore, computed following the BEES model, displayed a reduced environmental impact. The Consolidation Index, ECM, demonstrated that replacing up to 50% of natural sand with CIW leads to a more efficient eco-friendly mortar mix, providing a viable pathway for enhancing environmental and economic sustainability in construction.
