There has been vast research enhancing the usage of industrial wastes in engineering applications. This research paper reports the effect of fly ash on the physical and mechanical properties of composite cement. Fly ash ...

This study presents the compressive strength and crack propagation of cement composites reinforced coconut fibre. The development of cement composites in this research were done by substituting coconut fibre to the portion ...

The attractive performance-to-cost ratio associated with the incorporation of waste material in composite formulations used to produce brake pads has stimulated the idea of exploring the possible incorporation of additional ...

This research paper presents a study on the development of cement composites reinforced coconut fiber with fly ash addition. Various content of coconut fiber (3 wt. %, 6 wt. %, 9 wt. %, 12 wt. % and 15 wt. %) was added to ...

The effects of both additions of fly ash and polystyrene (PS) beads were studied on compressive strength of foamed cement composites. The increasing amount of fly ash addition up to 6 wt. % has been found to increase the ...

This project was conducted to produce a cement panel with the addition of treated and untreated coconut fiber in cement panel. Coconut fiber was added to replace coarse aggregate (sand) in this cement panel. In this project, ...

In this study, the mixing of polystyrene (PS) beads and fly ash as a sand replacement material in foamed cement composites (FCC) has been investigated. Specifically, the mechanical properties such as compressive strength ...

Brake pads are important safety devices in vehicles. An effort to avoid the use of asbestos in brake pads has led to the development of asbestos-free brake pads that incorporate various organic and inorganic fillers. Palm ...

Particle size of filler and other material that involved in brake pad composites are expected to be able to strongly influence the wear properties and performance. Palm slag as a filler in brake pad was investigated in ...
