Thermal Properties of PVA-Fiber Reinforced Cement Composites at High Temperatures

Article Preview

Abstract:

Properties of polyvinyl alcohol-fiber reinforced cement composites are investigated as functions of temperature up to 1000 °C. Basic physical properties are measured using the water vacuum saturation method. High-temperature thermal diffusivity is determined by a transient method based on the analysis of temperature field at one-sided sample heating. High-temperature specific heat capacity is obtained using a non-adiabatic method. Experimental results show that the studied material exhibits a satisfactory resistance to high-temperature exposure and has a potential for using in high-temperature applications in building industry.
