Applicability of the Waste Fibres in Cement Paste
Medžiagotyra, 2013 Fibres produced from waste catalyst together with commercially available polypropylene fibres were incorporated into ordinary Portland cement paste. The effects of fibre content as well as a mix of different type of fibres on mechanical and physical ...

Behaviour of alkaline cement mortars reinforced with acrylic and polypropylene fibres
Materiales de Construccion, 2000 In the present work, the behaviour of alkaline cement mortars reinforced with fibres of different nature (acrylic and polypropylene fibres) is studied. Also the chemical stability of those fibres in strong alkaline medium has been investigated.

Development and characterisation of injection moulded, all-polypropylene composites [PDF]
, 2012 In this work, all-polypropylene composites (all-PP composites) were manufactured by injection moulding. Prior to injection moulding, pre-impregnated pellets were prepared by a three-step process (filament winding, compression moulding and pelletizing).
