Effect of Fiber Addition in Geopolymer Concrete: A Study on Comparison betweenNatural and Artificial FibersBy K. Aravinth, T.Sathanandham, R.Gobinath, B.Arunachalam, A.Rajasekaran, R.Veerasekar
Abstract: Geopolymer concrete is an inorganic polymer concrete, containing no ordinary Portland cement (OPC). It is produced by reacting alumino-silicate source material with alkaline solution. Geopolymer concrete has highly desirable structural engineering properties, which can lead to significant environmental and economic benefits. Fibers in general and polypropylene (PP) fibers in particular have gained popularity in recent years for use in concrete, mainly owing to their low price and excellent characteristics. Alkalineliquids …
