Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.Surface functionalization of polypropylene macrofibers to enhance fiber‐matrix interfacial bonding. ABSTRACT Concrete is the most used higher compressive strength‐building material, albeit brittle to tensile, and flexural loads. Polypropylene (PP) synthetic polymeric macrofibres are commonly employed as reinforcement material to prevent this situation ...

The characterization of recycled concrete aggregate as filter in removal of phosphorus [PDF]
, 2020 Phosphorus (P) is one of the key nutrients that lead to eutrophication problem in surface water. However, the existing conventional wastewater treatment system to remove phosphorus is expensive and require a complex process. Therefore, a system using low
