The effect of polypropylene, polyvinyl-alcohol, carbon and glass fibres on geopolymers properties

ABSTRACT Recently, the inclusion of different types of fibres into geopolymers, as reinforcement, has amplified due to the rapid increase in geopolymers developments. In spite of geopolymers have prospective properties such as low carbon footprint, low consumption of energy, good compressive strength, resistance to fire, resistance to flame, resistance to corrosion and good durability, they undergo from low tensile strength and flexural strength. To avoid these shortages, different types of fibres could be incorporated into geopolymers to enhance their toughness, tensile strength and ductility. The current survey aims to review the effect of different types of fibres named polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), carbon and glass fibres on the fresh and hardened properties of geopolymers.
