Mechanical and durable behaviour of alkaline cement mortars reinforced with polypropylene fibres
AbstractThe development of new binders, alternative to traditional cements and concretes obtained by the alkaline activation of different industrial by-products (blast furnace slags and/or fly ashes), is an ongoing study and research topic of the scientific community. The mechanical and durable behaviour of alkaline cement mortars reinforced with polypropylene fibres has been the object of the present investigation. Three different alkaline matrices were used: (a) granulated blast furnace slag activated with waterglass (Na2SiO3+NaOH) with a concentration of 4% Na2O by mass of slag and cured at room temperature, (b) aluminosilicate fly ash activated with 8M NaOH and cured at 85 °C during the first 24 h and (c) 50% fly ash+50% slag activated with 8M NaOH solution at room temperature. In the mechanical tests (flexural and compressive strengths), two different dosages of fibres were used: 0.5% and 1% by mortar volume. Shrinkage tests according to ASTM C 806-87 standard with (1%) and without fibres were also carried out. The durability tests carried out were freeze/thaw and wet/dry cycles. In these tests, the dosage of fibre was 0.5% by mortar volume. The results obtained show that the nature of the matrix is the most important factor to strength development, more than fibre presence and content amount.
