An analysis of the flexural toughness and ductility of Portland cement-based binders reinforced with natural woUastonite micro-fibres is reported. The flexural toughness was calculated as the sum of finite area increments under the entire load-deflection curve and the ductility was determined from t

Results of an investigation to determine the dependence of mechanical properties on microstructure of high alumina cement (HAC)-based binders reinforced with natural woUastonite micro-fibres are reported. Two composite systems were studied. One was the HAC -wollastonite system the other the HAC-sili
Factors that influence the flexural strength characteristics of the cement-water and the cementsilica fume-water systems reinforced with inorganic wollastonite micro-fibres are discussed. The effect of the wollastonite micro-fibres on matrix pore structure was investigated using mercury intrusion po
The stability of Portland cement-based binders reinforced with natural wollastonite micro-fibres was investigated for hydration periods up to one year. The wollastonite microfibres imbedded in the hydrated cement paste were examined employing a scanning electron microscopy technique. Composite speci
