Experimental Investigation on Utilization of Cotton Waste in Concrete Alongwith Yarn Waste and Superplasticizer 

Abstract

Concrete is the primary structural material utilized in the global construction sector. However, the exponentialaccumulation of solid textile waste presents a critical environmental challenge requiring sustainable recycling strategies. Thisinvestigation focuses on evaluating the incorporation of cotton waste cloth, yarn waste, and chemical admixtures into M30 gradeconcrete. The inclusion of cotton cloth enhances internal stress redistribution, leading to an increase in flexural and split tensilestrengths. Conversely, the introduction of raw cloth fibers disrupts cementitious matrix cohesion, causing a degradation incompressive performance. To counter this loss of strength, yarn waste is introduced as a densification agent to fill interstitial voidsand enhance packed density. Furthermore, a high-range water-reducing superplasticizer (Ceraplast 300) is incorporated tosignificantly decrease the water-cement ratio, thereby densifying the microstructural hydration matrix and improving overallconcrete durability. Experimental evaluation covers 7, 14, and 28-day curing regimes for compressive and flexural behaviorsacross multiple non-conventional mix proportions.Key Words —Cotton Waste, Yarn Waste, Ceraplast 300 Superplasticizer, M30 Grade Concrete, Compressive Strength, FlexuralStrength, Microstructural Cohesion, Sustainable Materials
