Fibre reinforced concrete containing waste coconut shell aggregate, fly ash and polypropylene fibre

open access: yesRevista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2020
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of polypropylene fibre addition into eco-concrete made with fly ash, an industrial by product, as partial cement replacement material, and coconut shell, an agricultural waste, as coarse aggregates, on ...

Large‐scale extrusion of auxetic polypropylene fibre [PDF]

open access: yesphysica status solidi (b), 2016
Auxetic polyproplyene fibres have been produced on a large‐scale industrial extruder for the first time. A first batch of tests identified a coarse processing window which was then more closely defined by subsequent tests. The effects of barrel temperature, screw speed, take‐up speed and quenching (through the parameters of air gap and bath temperature)

Mechanical behaviour of sandy soils embankments treated with cement and reinforced with discrete elements (fibres)

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2022
It is well known that chemical treatment with cement and reinforcement with polypropylene fibres are considered as a solution to soil stability problems. This technique ameliorates the mechanical and physical comportment of the soil.

Review on the Durability of Polypropylene Fibre-Reinforced Concrete

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
Polypropylene fibre (PPF) is a kind of polymer material with light weight, high strength, and corrosion resistance. The crack resistance of concrete can be improved by adding PPFs. PPF can optimize the pore size distribution of concrete. As a result, the
