Surface modification on dispersion and enhancement of PVA fibers in fiber-reinforced cementitious composites

In this paper, non-ionic polyoxyethylene ether was used to modify the surface of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) fibers and to improve their dispersion in cement mortar. The results showed that surface modification could apparently improve the dispersion of PVA fibers in cement mortar by weakening the ori...
