Abstract:
|
This work presents the preparation and characterization of new cement mortars reinforced with conventional pulps at the micro-scale level and nanofibrillated cellulose fibers at the nano-scale level. The conventional pulps have been obtained by subjecting sisal fibers to a soft mechanical treatment and the nanofibrillated cellulose has been prepared by the application of a high intensity refining process. Based on the preliminary results of this research it can be concluded that to obtain cement mortar composites with high modulus, strength and toughness the combination of both scale cellulose fibers could be an interesting solution |
