“Brick-and-Mortar” Nanostructured Interphase for Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites

ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2018
The fiber-matrix interface plays a critical role in determining composite mechanical properties. While a strong interface tends to provide high strength, a weak interface enables extensive debonding, leading to a high degree of energy absorption. Balancing these conflicting requirements by engineering composite interfaces to improve strength and ...

Innovating traditional building materials in Chembe, Malawi: assessing post-consumer waste glass and burnt clay bricks for performance and circularity

International Journal of Sustainable Engineering, 2021
Across the Global South, post-consumer waste glass is an often dumped, and under-utilised resource. Even in Malawi, with widespread return schemes, many barriers exist, inhibiting reuse, and necessitating appropriate solutions.

Utilization of Waste Glass as Filler Material for Concrete Bricks

JISTECH: Journal of Information Science and Technology, 2023
Concrete brick is a type of building element in the form of blocks made from the main ingredients of portland cement, water and aggregate used for wall (SNI 03-0349-1989). The concrete brick tested using glass powder added material is expected to produce high compressive strength and low water absorption.
