Description

The aim of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of composites based on alkali activated materials reinforced with natural fiber - sisal, as an ecological material for selected applications in the building industry. Microscopic analysis of the created structure and examination of compression and bending strength were carried out. Strength tests show a slight increase in compression and bending strength compared to a geopolymer matrix without fibers. (paper)
