Recycled fishing net fibers from the mediterranean sea as a resource in gypsum-based composites: characterization and environmental assessment

Cleaner Materials
The growing accumulation of abandoned, lost, or otherwise discarded fishing gear is a critical environmental problem because of its persistence, slow degradation, and contribution to marine pollution. The construction sector consumes large amounts of non-

Effect of red gypsum replacement on water absorption and density in gypsum board composites at room temperature

The paper investigates the performance of red gypsum (RG) as a partial replacement for natural gypsum (NG) in insulative gypsum composites. Five batches of samples with varying RG replacement levels (0–40%) were prepared with a constant water-to-binder ...
