Compatibility of Pretreated Coir Fibres (Cocos nucifera L.) with Portland Cement to Produce Mineral Composites
The objectives of the present work were to evaluate the chemical compatibility between coir (Cocos nucifera L.) and cement and to study treatment methods to improve this compatibility. In the inhibition test, cement hydration temperature evolution was measured in the absence and presence of untreate...
