Abstract: Abstract High-performance polyethylene (PE) fibers possess unique features to develop advanced cementitious composites with superior mechanical properties. Nonetheless, due to their hydrophobic nature, such fibers can develop only a poor interfacial affinity between themselves and… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract This study investigates the interfacial bonding of natural fibre reinforced (NFR) cementitious composites by exploring the incorporation of 20–30 mm strands of uncoated and resin coated flax/wool twine into various cementitious matrices. Cementitious matrices consisting… read more here.
