Effect of coir husk fibre on rice husk ash and cement based peat stabilisation
Proceedings of Civil Engineering Research Symposium 2025Peat soils, with their high organic content, excessive compressibility, and very low shear strength, pose critical challenges for construction in tropical regions such as Sri Lanka.

Utilization of coir fibre as an asphalt modifier
Progress in Rubber, Plastics and Recycling Technology, 2019The influence of added coir (coconut) fibre of various lengths (from 2.5 mm to 10 mm) and dosages (up to 8 wt%) on the rheological properties of Trinidad Lake Asphalt (TLA) and Trinidad Petroleum Bitumen (TPB) was evaluated by measuring changes in the phase angle, δ (measure of the elasticity) and the complex modulus, G* (measure of the degree of ...

Sustainable composites: Processing of coir fibres and application in hybrid-fibre composites
Journal of Composite Materials, 2019Coir fibres, a byproduct of the coconut industry, have high performance qualities but are difficult to process by conventional textile methods. The purpose of the research is to combine the processibility of hemp and flax with the high-performance properties of coir to create a composite product worthy of industrial applications.

Long-term behaviour of coir-fibre-reinforced soils
Environmental GeotechnicsDespite their promising results as reinforcement material, the use of natural fibres often raises concerns about long-term performance and aspects related to biodegradation. This study carried out a comprehensive triaxial testing programme involving treated and non-treated and aged and non-aged specimens to elucidate some aspects of the mechanical ...

Comparison of Pb(II) uptake by coir and dye loaded coir fibres in a fixed bed column
Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2005The possibility of adsorbing Pb(II) from solution using coir, a cheap lignocellulosic fibre, was assessed in a fixed bed column. The coir fibres were also chemically modified by covalent loading of a reactive dye, C.I. Reactive Orange 13, and used as adsorbent. Column adsorption studies were carried out at different initial Pb(II) concentrations and it

Uses of Coir Fibre, Its Products & Implementation of Geo-Coir in Bangladesh
Coir fibre is obtained from husk of coconut & composed of highly lignified form of cellulose. [1] All coir fibre falls into twodistinctly different categories viz. white coir and brown coir the differences between two categories are due to the conditions of husk used, the method of extraction, the physical properties as well as in the uses.openaire +1 more source
