This research deals with the stabilization of mixtures constituted by recycled aggregates through the activation of its fines portions, whose components enable the occurrence of chemical cementation reactions. In order to develop this research, two types of recycled aggregates were used: one from demolition waste with cementitious origin, and the other one from the red ceramic industry. The use of these materials was done through mix designs to obtain mixtures whose combinations of materials could chemically increase the occurrence of hydration of the anhydrous existing in fine portion of the recycled cementitious aggregates, and pozzolanic reactions due to the pozzolanicity of red ceramics. Thus, five mixtures were obtained, and they were composed by the studied recycled aggregates, mixed together and with the addition of hydraulic binders, on which laboratory tests were performed in order to verify the occurrence of the expected chemical reactions with consequent stabilization of the mixtures, in order to influence their mechanical behavior. Furthermore, it was performed the evaluation of packing characteristics of the particles to verify if the physical arrangement, in this case, has any significant influence on improving the mechanical behavior of the mixtures studied. The results obtained indicated that in fact the expected chemical reactions occurred, which was verified by the results from thermogravimetry and X-ray diffraction tests performed at three different times of curing. The improvement of the mixtures’ mechanical behavior by increasing of their compressive strength and their resilient modulus was also verified as the mixtures were cured, in addition to low deformability at 91 days of curing. Thus, the stabilization of the mixtures studied was confirmed, which was mainly due to the occurrence of chemical hydration reactions of the anhydrous cement and pozzolanic reactions. The study demonstrated the possibility of stabilizing mixtures of recycled aggregates cementitious waste and red ceramic by the occurrence of cementing chemical reactions promoted by combination of these materials.
