Advancements in sustainable natural dyes for textile applications: a review
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-08-08)
Article
Open AccessThe dyeing and finishing step represents a clear hotspot in the textile supply chain as the wet processing stages require significant amounts of water, energy, and chemicals. In order to tackle environmental issues, natural ... -
Serviceability parameters and social sustainability assessment of flax fabric reinforced lime-based drywall interior panels
(Elsevier, 2023-10)
Article
Open AccessIn the search of more environmentally-friendly construction materials, the use of natural-based fibers has gained much attention as reinforcement in the inorganic-based matrix. In this paper, the nonwoven flax fabric ... -
Cement composite panels reinforced with textile waste and flax nonwoven fabrics: flexural and accelerated aging performance
(2023)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyTowards more eco-friendly building materials, nonwoven fabrics from natural-based (flax) and recycled (textile waste) fibers were produced and incorporated into the cementitious composite panels. The textile waste fibers ... -
Durability of eco-friendly strain-hardening cementitious composite incorporating recycled textile waste fabric and silica fume
(Féderation Internationale du Béton (fib), 2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyTo reach carbon neutrality, the use of more eco-friendly building materials derived from recycled resources and industrial by-products has been widely encouraged. The use of Portland cement (PC) and concrete as the most ... -
