Probing the hydrophilicity of coir fibres: analysis of the mechanical properties of single coir fibres

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2017
Abstract This study investigates the mechanical properties of dry versus fully hydrated single micrometre-thick coir fibres. The motivation is to gain insights into the hydrophilicity of the fibres. Specimens of coir fibres were subjected to tensile test until rupture using a horizontal environmental micromechanical tester, mounted on an inverted ...

Utilization of Coir Fibre Ash (CFA) in Cement Stabilized Peat

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environment, 2023
Peat is a soil that has a high compressibility property beside having a low bearing capacity. Due to these problems, the peat soil is not suitable for construction purposes. Coconut waste is an example of agricultural waste.

Experimental Investigation of Self-Compacting Concrete Containing Coir Fibres [PDF]

open access: yesCivil and Environmental Engineering Reports, 2021
Many researchers have investigated alternative sources to overcome the problem of conventional building material polluting the environment by the development of green self-compacting concrete in the construction industry. The best alternative solution is to utilise non-conventional construction materials like agricultural wastes.
