Opis

Application of recycled textile wastes in cement materials is an experimental study involves searches for treatment of spinney wastes based on wet oxidative degradation technique. The resulting slurry was used as reinforcement for mortar composite product. The novelty of this work consists of four main subjects, (a) Partial degradation of the cellulosic spinney wastes before incorporation into mortar materials, (b) Mechanical, physical and structural characterizations of the reached composite based on compressive strength, porosity, FT-IR, X-RD, DTA, TGA and SEM analyses, (c) Evaluation of the add-value composite under some selected circumstances like frost and chemical attacks, (d) Rational approach for producing some mortar composite tiles that can be applied in the construction field. With its comprehensive coverage and systematic presentation, this work would be a useful text for chemists, environmentalists and engineers. Furthermore, it will be a valuable reference to the science and engineering students at various levels.
