(1) Compressive testing for fiber reinforced cement has been conducted to
explore the compressive strength variation of the cement mortar, in which flocculent
cellulose fiber and monofilament synthetic fiber are adopted as enhancer, respectively.
Results indicate both fiber reinforced cement mortar are the same effect basically, the
specimen strength with increasing fiber content were decreases; when the floc
cellulose fiber content of 0.3%, the fiber cement strength reaches a maximum; when
the monofilament synthetic fiber content of 0.2%, the monofilament synthetic fiber
reinforced cement maximum intensity value; monofilament synthetic fiber reinforced
cement intensity is higher than the maximum floc cellulose fiber reinforced cement,
but the specimen by the force of destruction process strength decreases were faster.
(2) Influence of three types of additives, such as fly ash, monofilament synthetic
fiber and waste paper fiber, on the strength of fiber cement composites are roundly
scrutinized. Based on three factors and three levels orthogonal design method as well
as supplementary test to optimize the mixture ratio of fiber cement composite,
priorities of elements that finally determine the strength of fiber cement composites
are given as follows: cement/fly ash, monofilament synthetic fiber, waste paper fiber.
Considering the experimental results and societal economy, the mix proportion for
maximum strength is determined as cement (28 percent), fly ash (32 percent), waste
paper fiber (2.6 percent) and monofilament synthetic fiber (0.16 percent). But the mix
proportion changes to cement (24 percent), fly ash (36 percent), waste paper fiber (2.6
percent) and monofilament synthetic fiber (0.16 percent) when the economy is
emphatically considered. Through experimental results analysis, it is concluded that
while the strength of fiber cement composites shows a trend of decline with the
increase of fly ash and waste paper fiber, the strength improves along with the
addition of monofilament synthetic fiber.
(3) Based on the optimal mixture proportion above, flexural strength test for fiber
cement composites has been carried out, in which ratio of compressive strength is
employed to analyze its roughness in simplicity. According to the experimental
results, following conclusions have been obtained: 0.16 percent monofilament
synthetic fiber mixed enables fiber reinforced cement a maximum flexural strength
when cement is constant, but the 28 percent cement added corresponding to a higher
flexural strength than 24 percent cement. In addition, although compressive and
flexural strengths both decrease with the increase of monofilament synthetic fiber
when cement is constant, flexural strength increases at a low speed, therefore ratio of
compressive strength declines along with monofilament synthetic fiber. The ratio of
compressive strength corresponding to 28 percent cement is lower than that
corresponding to 24 percent cement when fiber is constant. In addition, ratio of
compressive strength descends with a increase of monofilament synthetic fiber,
especially block containing 28 percent cement experiences a faster decline with
respect to ratio of compressive strength.
(4) To simulate extruding technique, extrusion mold has been developed and
applied in the flexural experimental analysis of compressive wallboard. The
mentioned has been patented, and by this mold, the bench-scale experiment could
