The use of natural fibers as reinforcement in cementitious composites has been explored as
an alternative to the development of new materials for civil construction. Research that …

Eco-friendly and cheap treatments based on the use of mildly alkaline solutions have been
recently investigated to modify natural fibers, altering their surface and improving their …

Utilizing biological resources facilitates alleviating energy shortage and environmental
pollution problems, but high-value utilization of these resources requires breaking the …

This study investigates the effect of modifying ambient-cured geopolymer-bonded
composites of coir fibre and wood particles with γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES, 0.10 …

This study introduces an innovative method for efficiently integrating abaca fibers into a
potassium‐based geopolymer (KGP) material. Geopolymers often suffer from brittleness …

Nuclear power facilities face a critical challenge: concrete deterioration caused by
prolonged neutron irradiation. This study explores a promising alternative, a metakaolin …

This study delved into the utilization of chamotte particles in varying contents (0–50 wt%) as
reinforcing agents in both fresh and hardened states within potassium‐based geopolymer …

This paper presents a first-time investigation into the effects of an eco-friendly sodium
bicarbonate fiber treatment on the mechanical properties of metakaolin-based geopolymers …

Alkaline conditions, such as the concentration of Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) and the
duration of soaking time, significantly affect the mechanical properties of natural fiber and its …

The need for finding a replacement for concrete in nuclear power plants has increased
dramatically due to concrete degradation caused by prolonged exposure to neutron …
