Development and Characterization of Flax–Gypsum Composites
Flax–gypsum composites are an emerging class of environmentally friendly materials that combine the mechanical properties of gypsum with the advantageous characteristics of flax fibers. The production of flax–gypsum composites involve the incorporation of flax fibers, derived from the flax plant, into gypsum matrix systems. In order to create a uniform
