Augmentation of Mechanical Properties of Sisal Fiber Concrete
The properties of sisal fiber concrete were examined in this investigation. To find out the mechanical properties such as compressive strength, flexural strength, tensile strength was carried out for the control concretes. The similar mix proportion which was utilized to cast control concrete was used to cast sisal fiber concrete were considered and ...

Experiment Study: Sisal Fiber Reinforced Concrete
One of the main fields of research that is becoming more and more relevant is fibre reinforced concrete. Fibers are used to enhance the tensile qualities of concrete without reducing its compressive strength. This study attempted to examine the impact of natural sisal fibre on concrete by partially substituting cement.

Long Jute Fiber‐Reinforced Polypropylene Composites for Lightweight Automotive Structures
LFT‐G processing route and the resulting property changes. ABSTRACT This study investigates the effects of long jute (LJ) fiber reinforcement on the mechanical, thermal and sound transmission loss (STL) properties of polypropylene (PP)‐based biocomposites. Long fiber thermoplastics (LFT) are increasingly used in various industries, including automotive

Nonwoven Sisal Fiber as Thermal Insulator Material
The present study describes experiments carried out to analyze the effects of superficial treatment on the thermal performance of needlepunched nonwoven sisal fiber used as thermal insulation material. Nonwovens with gramature 1300–1400 g/m2 “in natura” and treated (2% w/w sodium hydroxide) were used to the thermal insulation of a tube of steel ...
