A concrete with recycled plastic

A group of students of the Massachusetts Institute (MIT) has developed a compound that makes concrete more resistant and eco-friendly thanks to the recycled plastic from the bottles used.Until now, the results obtained from the use of plastic in cement compounds were meagre.
MIT intuition has concerned the exposure of plastic to gamma rays and so has made the crystalline structure of polymer stiffer with consequent more resistant concrete.
