Adhesion between geopolymer matrix and vegetable fibers: effect of matrix composition and fiber treatment

Seeking to promote sustainable composites composed of a low-carbon matrix and a renewable reinforcement, this study evaluated the fiber–matrix adhesion of sisal fibers used as reinforcement in geopolymeric matrices produced by the alkaline activation of fiber cement waste, in combination with metakaolin. Natural, horni...
