The development of cement composites reinforced coconut fiber with fly ash addition: mechanical properties and fracture behaviour
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
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 ...
Effect of heating rate on microstructure and properties of the iron-chromium reinforced with alumina particle produced via microwave sintering
(Praise Worthy Prize, 2013)
The application of microwave sintering to metallic materials offers better mechanical properties over conventional sintering method. In this paper, the effect of heating rate on the microstructure and properties of the ...
Mechanical properties and morphology of palm slag, calcium carbonate and dolomite filler in brake pad composites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
The development of asbestos free brake pad composites using different fillers was investigated with a intention to substitute asbestos which is known hazardous and carcinogenic. Mechanical and morphology studies were made ...
Effects of fly ash addition on compressive strength and flexural strength of foamed cement composites
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
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 ...
Fabrication and characterisation of powder metallurgy Fe-Cr Matrix composites reinforced with Al2O3
(Trans Tech Publications, 2013)
Sintered powder metallurgy Fe based composites with advanced mechanical properties have been proposed as substitutes for more expensive cemented carbide and wrought alloys in many applications, especially as inexpensive ...
