Effect of waste water bottle and treated sisal fibers on the durability and mechanical properties of concrete
Fode, Tsion; Jande, Yusufu; Kivevele, Thomas; Rahbar, Nima (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
Fode, Tsion; Chande Jande, Yusufu; Kim, Young-Deuk; Ham, Min-Gyu; Lee, Jieun; Kivevele, Thomas; Rahbar, Nima (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 ... -
Modeling and optimization of calcined bentonite replacement in the mechanical and durability properties of mortar
Fode, Tsion; Chande Jande, Yusufu; Kivevele, Thomas; Rahbar, Nima (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. ...
