A Review on Coir Fiber Treated with natural rubber Latex as Concrete Reinforcement Material in cement Based Composites
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
Concrete is acknowledged to be a relatively brittle material and when subjected to normal stresses and impact loads, the tensile strength is one tenth of its compressive strength. Because of this characteristics, concrete flexural members could not support such loads that usually take place during their service life. There are two important aspects which is always to be considered in order to achieve durable concrete first is durability and other is impermeability. The overall goal of this research is to investigate the behavioral study of natural fiber when using with natural rubber latex in concrete structure. There are many types of natural fiber are available such as Sugarcane, Rice husk and Coir and they are easily available. These composites have high impact strength and they can be regarded as an environment friendly material. In this experimental study, coir fibre is treated with natural rubber latex. The presence of natural rubber latex in concrete improves the performance of concrete. There are some specimen of different size was constructed for different test and compare the properties of coir fiber reinforced concrete with conventional concrete such as compressive strength ,cylinder compressive strength , split tensile strength , modulus of rupture, modulus of elasticity and shear test.
