This expertise is primarily geared towards the recycling of the SM in the form of materials for use in the BPW sector.<\/p>\n<p>To provide itself with a foundation for this initiative the CTP has equipped\u00a0 itself with a high-performance \u2018Materials\u2019 Laboratory capable of carrying out the different tests inherent to the use of SM in BPW:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pre-treatment and characterisation of secondary materials\u00a0;<\/li>\n<li>The application of materials made from them;<\/li>\n<li>A workability assessment through consistency tests measuring rheological behaviour;<\/li>\n<li>Measurement of setting time;<\/li>\n<li>Mechanical characterizations (modulus of elasticity: E and G, flexural strength and resistance to compression, resistance to mechanical shock and cracking, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Leaching tests with analysis of solutions to ensure compliance with environmental norms.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Our others laboratories:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a
