Book Etude des interactions physico chimiques aux interfaces fibres de chanvre ciment

Download or read book Etude des interactions physico chimiques aux interfaces fibres de chanvre ciment written by David Sedan and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’utilisation des fibres de chanvre dans une matrice cimentaire confère des propriétés intéressantes aux composites. La compréhension des mécanismes d’interactions entre les fibres et la matrice cimentaire est indispensable afin de mieux appréhender le comportement mécanique du composite. Les fibres de chanvre, par une forte teneur en pectine, fixent sur leur surface les ions calcium Ca2+ et les ions hydroxydes OH-. On observe un déficit en ions hydroxydes et calcium dans la phase interstitielle, entraînant une inhibition des hydrates de silicate de calcium (CSH) et, par conséquent, induisant des retards de prise. Le milieu alcalin, imposé par le ciment, élimine les sucres circulants à la surface des fibres et dégrade les hémicelluloses, ce qui permet d’augmenter la rugosité des fibres. Cependant, la quantité de sucres ou acides lixiviés dans de telles pâtes semblent trop faible pour avoir une influence sur le milieu. La fixation des ions calcium à la surface des fibres se traduit par une forte adhésion entre ces dernières et la matrice cimentaire. Il en résulte une amélioration des propriétés mécaniques du composite. Ces composites possèdent une grande souplesse ainsi qu’une plus grande résistance en flexion que le ciment seul, caractéristiques très intéressantes pour certaines applications du bâtiment.

This book was released on 2017-10-04 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the tools to understand the issues related to bio-based concretes using lime as binder. Themes covered include specific properties of lignocellulosic aggregates (density, porosity, size distribution, water absorption, microstructure, soluble components under alkaline conditions), hardening of lime-based binders by carbonation and hydration (natural and curing processes) and microstructure of the binder in the vicinity of aggregates (dense or porous interphase). The mechanical (uniaxial and triaxial compression) and insulating properties of the relatively well-known hemp concretes and the novel rice husk concretes are also reviewed. Finally, a detailed and comprehensive description of the tools and methodologies that make it easier the design of such bio-based concretes is discussed. Written for students as well as researchers, this book is aimed at individuals working in both academic and industrial fields.

Book Natural Fiber

Download or read book Natural Fiber written by Han-Yong Jeon and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-11-02 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike synthetic fibers that have undergone chemical processing, natural fibers are superior in aesthetics and comfort. However, because they come from nature, their supply is inconsistent and it is difficult to control their production. Natural fibers are popular because they are generally environmentally friendly and durable and have a strong affinity for water and thus have high absorbency. Through chemical modification or processing, natural fibers can be developed for medical, health, sanitation, and industrial uses. This book discusses natural fibers and how they can be manipulated and modified for practical applications in a variety of industries.

Book Bio aggregates Based Building Materials

Download or read book Bio aggregates Based Building Materials written by Sofiane Amziane and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-04 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work of the RILEM Technical Committee (TC -236 BBM) was dedicated to the study of construction materials made from plant particles. It considered the question whether building materials containing as main raw material recyclable and easily available plant particles are renewable. This book includes a state-of-the-art report and an appendix. The state-of-the-art report relates to the description of vegetal aggregates. Then, hygrothermal properties, fire resistance, durability and finally the impact of the variability of the method of production of bio-based concrete are assessed. The appendix is a TC report which presents the experience of a working group. The goal was to define testing methods for the measurement of water absorption, bulk density, particle size distribution, and thermal conductivity of bio aggregates. The work is based on a first round robin test of the TC-BBM where the protocols in use by the different laboratories (labs) are compared. p>

Book Etude physico chimique des interfaces chaux chanvre argile

Download or read book Etude physico chimique des interfaces chaux chanvre argile written by Ismail Khay and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La compréhension de différents phénomènes physico-chimiques mis en jeu lors de la formulation et la mise en forme d’un matériau composite à base d’une matrice minérale et de fibres cellulosiques, permet de mieux optimiser l’élaboration et la consolidation finale ainsi que de corréler les observations microstructurales avec les propriétés d’usage des composites. Le comportement rhéologique du mortier étudié dépend du pH du milieu, de la nature et de la surface spécifique des minéraux argileux. L’utilisation d’une charge minérale qui contient de la chamotte, apporte un effet pouzzolanique au mélange et sa présence participe à la stabilisation du matériau composite. L'introduction de fibres dans une matrice minérale modifie le caractère fragile de la matrice minérale et conduit à un comportement non linéaire endommageable, caractéristique d'un matériau composite. Un traitement des fibres à la soude permet d’individualiser les microfibrilles : cela augmente la rugosité des fibres, signe d'une interface fibre/matrice réduite. En revanche, ces microfibrilles sont très sensibles à l’eau. L’introduction de fibres de chanvre dans une matrice minérale baisse considérablement la valeur de la conductivité thermique du composite. Ces fibres cellulosiques présentent un caractère hygroscopique important, entraînant une modification de l’absorption d’eau par capillarité. Ainsi, ces matériaux composites sont bien plus résistants aux cycles de gel/dégel.

Book Caract  risation des interactions physico chimiques dans un mat  riau composite    base de phyllosilicates  de chaux et de fibres v  g  tales

Download or read book Caract risation des interactions physico chimiques dans un mat riau composite base de phyllosilicates de chaux et de fibres v g tales written by Marianne Le Troedec and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Afin de comprendre les mécanismes physico-chimiques régissant les interactions entre des fibres de chanvre et une matrice à base de chaux et d'argiles, les effets de différents traitements chimiques des fibres sur l'état de surface des fibres d'une part et sur les propriétés mécaniques des composites d'autre part ont été évalués. Un traitement basique à l'hydroxyde de sodium (NaOH) permet ainsi d'augmenter les forces d'adhésion entre la fibre et un colloïde de silice et d'accroître les propriétés mécaniques d'un matériau composite dont la matrice est constituée de chaux uniquement ou de chaux et de kaolin. Cette amélioration peut être le résultat d'une augmentation de la rigidité de la fibre et d'une homogénéité en surface qui la rendent plus réactive. Les autres traitements réalisés, avec de l'acide éthylène diamine tétra-acétique (EDTA), du polyéthylène imine (PEI), une solution saturée d'eau de chaux et une solution de chlorure de calcium n'ont pas d'effets sur les propriétés mécaniques.
