Activated Bentonite for Physical, Mechanical, and Durability Properties of Concrete—A Review
(Wiley, 2024-12)Bentonite mostly exists in many counties and studies reported employment of activated bentonite in the concrete improves concrete performance more than using raw bentonite. However, it is not well-known which range of ... -
Effect of Natural Pozzolana on Physical and Mechanical Properties of Concrete
(Hindawi, 2024-02-13)Construction industries are rapidly growing, sacking high amounts of concrete which has a highly dense microstructure with excellent mechanical properties, more durable, and highly eco-friendly materials. Hence, many of ... -
Effect of waste water bottle and treated sisal fibers on the durability and mechanical properties of concrete
(Nature Publishing Group UK, 2025-03-07)Globally, the disposal of waste plastic bottles is challenging. However, many researchers reported the importance of incorporating waste polyethylene-based waste water bottles (WWB) as a fiber and treated sisal fiber ... -
Effects of different lengths and doses of raw and treated sisal fibers in the cement composite material
(nature, 2025-01-10)Sisal fiber moisture sensitivity and degradation are treated by alkaline and pozzolanic methods, such as silica fume and kaolin surface coating. However, it is novel that the treatment of sisal fiber by calcined bentonite ... -
Effects of different supplementary cementitious materials on durability and mechanical properties of cement composite – Comprehensive review
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023)Ordinary Portland cement is the highest produced cement type in the world, however its pro- duction is high energy consumption means expensive, huge natural resource consumptive, and creating high environmental pollution. ... -
Effects of Raw and Different Calcined Bentonite on Durability and Mechanical Properties of Cement Composite Material2024
(Elsevier, 2024-02-22)Bentonite is a natural pozzolanic material mostly composed of SiO2 and employed in cementing materials for the reduction of cement consumption and CO2 emission besides improving perfor- mance of cement composite material ... -
Modeling and optimization of calcined bentonite replacement in the mechanical and durability properties of mortar
(Elsevier, 2024-11)Currently, pozzolanic materials are mostly recommended to improve the properties of cement composite materials and reduce environmental pollution, challenging the world owing to ordinary Portland cement (OPC) production. ... -
Modeling and Optimization of Sisal Fiber Degradation Treatment by Calcined Bentonite for Cement Composite Materials
(Tylor & Francis Online, 2024-10-06)The treatment of sisal fiber by pozzolanic materials like kaolin and silica-fume has been explored; however, no study has modeled and optimized the effect of sisal fiber degradation treatment using calcined bentonite. ... -
Modelling and optimization of different pozzolanic materials in the durability of cement composite by central composite design
(Elsevier, 2025-04-19)The production of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) requires high temperatures and significant energy consumption, leading to environmental pollution and posing challenges to the sustainability of green cementing materials. ... -
Modelling and optimization of multiple replacement of supplementary cementitious materials for cement composite by response surface method.
(Elsevier Ltd., 2024-03-07)Supplementary cementitious materials are beneficial in improving performance and lessening the cement con- sumption with highly lessening CO2 emission. Many researchers used blast furnace slag, bentonite, and active limestone ... -
Physical, mechanical, and durability properties of concrete containing different waste synthetic fibers for green environment – A critical review
(Cellpress, 2024-06-30)The world is facing a major challenge on ways to manage the waste synthetic materials that are potentially polluting the environment. So, by 2040 it is estimated from the total synthetic textile products that will be ... -
A Review on Degradation Improvement of Sisal Fiber by Alkali and Pozzolana for Cement Composite Materials
(Taylor & Francis, 2024)Sisal fiber employment in concrete improves its post-crack strength, but sisal fiber degrades due to moisture and cement mineralization. Many researchers used alkaline and pozzolanic techniques to treat sisal fiber in ...
