Effectiveness of polypropylene fibers on impact and shrinkage cracking behavior of adobe mixes
(2019)
Earth has been used as construction material for thousands of years and still at present earthen shelters are widely inhabited due to their comfort and low environmental impacts. Despite their advantages, earthen materials ...
Production and Evaluation of Recycled Polymers from Acai Fibers
(Univ Fed Sao Carlos, Dept Engenharia MaterialsSao CarlosBrasil, 2010)
Preparation of polypropylene composites with high levels of coir short fiber for use in products by injection
(2016-01-01)
The main objective of this investigation was to study the properties of composites of polypropylene (PP) containing different proportions (20, 40 and 60% wt%) of coir short fiber (natural vegetable fiber) without treatment ...
Deformation and fracture behavior of natural fiber reinforced polypropylene
(Wiley, 2008)
Recent works about the mechanical and fracture behavior of natural fiber reinforced polypropylene composites were presented, focusing on the deformation characteristics and the fracture and failure mechanisms exhibited by ...
Polypropylene composites manufactured from recycled carbon fibers from aeronautic materials waste
(2017-01-01)
Carbon fiber composites are used in several industries such as, aerospace, automotive, civil engineering, sports goods and technical applications due to its low-weight, strength and stiffness. However, the technology of ...
Natural fiber suspensions in thermoplastic polymers. I. analysis of fiber damage during processing
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2007-02)
The final properties of the composites materials are strongly dependent on the residual aspect ratio, orientation, and distribution of the fibers, which are determined by the processing conditions. Present work is a ...
Experimental characterization of the post-cracking response in Hybrid Steel/Polypropylene Fiber-Reinforced Concrete
(Elsevier, 2016-10)
This paper presents and discusses the results of experimental tests performed on concrete specimens internally reinforced with polypropylene and steel fibers. Specifically, samples of five mixtures (plus a reference plain ...
Shear strength behavior of clayey soil reinforced with polypropylene fibers under drained and undrained conditions
(2021-01-01)
The fundamental mechanisms controlling shear strength and deformability behavior of clay-fiber mixtures have still not been well established, nor the constraints that may affect their performance of shearing under different ...
