As the building sector is one of the leading responsible for energy consumption and CO2 emissions, criteria of sustainability, availability, and recyclability should be considered for developing materials even in the ...

This study was performed to study the effects of the cement paste composition (calcium aluminate cement—CAC and a geopolymer in comparison to Portland cement—OPC) on bamboo pulp and nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC). The ...

Textile industry produces a high amount of residues that, nowadays, are poorly managed. The majority of such wastes are dumped and landfilled. Among all the textile value chain, cotton yarning factories produce wastes in ...

In the last few years, an increase in interest has been given to the use of cellulose fibers as alternatives for conventional reinforcements in composites. The development of commercially viable environmentally friendly ...

Large amounts of nonrenewable resources are depleted by the construction industry in addition to the generation of million tons of mineral waste and carbon dioxide gas every year. For the sake of a more sustainable consumption ...

Se ha llevado a cabo el diseño, fabricación en el laboratorio y caracterización mecánica de una serie de mezclas de materiales con la idea de valorar su posible utilidad como hidroacolchados. Se diseñaron ocho mezclas ...

En este trabajo se han llevado a cabo la preparación y caracterización de nuevos compuestos a base de morteros de cemento reforzados con fibras celulósicas nanofibriladas. El efecto del grado de fibrilación de las fibras ...

The changes produced in cellulosic fibres when they are subjected to successive drying and rewetting cycles could have an important impact on the resistance and durability of cement mortar composites based on these fibres. ...
