Effect of Ash-Slag Mix and Polypropylene Fiber on the Performances of Concrete Composite

Abstract:

The article is devoted to determining the patterns of improving the performance of concrete using hydro-remote ash-slag mix and polypropylene fiber. For this, a four-step methodology was developed for producing purified aluminosilicates from ash-slag mix. A set of experimental studies included the study of both raw materials and developed composites. The compressive strength, flexural strength, and freeze-thaw resistance were chosen as the target characteristics. The mechanism of the effect of purified aluminosilicates on the compaction of the composite structure was determined. At the same time, polypropylene fiber effectively inhibits the formation of cracks and they growth. The optimal composition is the replacement of cement with an ash-slag mix in an amount of 50% and in the presence of fiber. In this case, the compressive strength was increased by 19%, and the flexural strength by 122% compared with the reference composition. Thus, it was proved that both hydro-remote ash-slag mix and polypropylene fiber, and especially from combined use, make it possible to create effective fiber-reinforced concrete with excellent mechanical and durability characteristics.
