Properties and performance of the basalt-fiber reinforced texture roof tiles

In this study, calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) nanoparticles were added to basalt fiber reinforced epoxy (BFRP) composites in varied weight fractions to examine their effects on the materials' mechanical, thermal, and physical properties. Through magnetic stirring and sonication, the epoxy matrix was altered with various weight fractions of CaCO 3 nanoparticles (0%, 0.5%, 0.7%, 1%, and 1.5%). It has been found that adding 1 wt% of nanoparticles to the matrix

“…For an FC factory, substituting sand with RFC by 50% could reduce the demand for sand by up to 4500 tons/month. According to results from the SimaPro software [68], using RFC as a sand replacement at a 50% level could reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 1,719,000 kg of CO 2 e/month at each FC factory. In addition, the possible negative environmental impacts from the CDW disposal are also eliminated.…”

A new fiber cement (FC) is designed with the integration of circular economy (CE) concepts, in particular a product that is recyclable yet maintains performance. The FC samples were prepared from the mixtures of ordinary Portland cement (OPC), sand, and cellulose fibers, and required an inclusion compound (IC) and water. From the heat of hydration tests, the most effective IC, IC1, was prepared from lithium silicate, sodium thiocyanate, alkylbenzene sulfonate, and hydrochloric acid. The FC samples were recycled by crushing and grinding, then used as sand replacement in varying amounts to produce new FC samples. The results from the mechanical tests showed that the 50%replacement of the sand provided FC samples with the highest modulus of rupture (MOR) of 10.64 MPa and a modulus of elasticity (MOE) of 7706.40 MPa. The samples with/without the recycled product passed both the freeze–thaw resistance test and flammability test for durability. Most importantly, results showed that the mechanical properties of the produced FC samples remained the same over 5 to 50 recycles.

“…Basalt fiber (BF), as a new, environmentally friendly mineral fiber [ 19 , 20 ], has been widely used in asphalt pavement due to its unique advantages: a wide working temperature range, excellent mechanical properties, chemical stability, anti-aging and thermal insulation properties, etc., [ 21 ]. In Celauro’s and Hui’s research [ 22 , 23 ], basalt-fiber-modified asphalt mixtures show a better high-temperature performance with reference to permanent deformation resistance when compared with the traditional mixture.…”

A new type of plastic and basalt fiber composite (PB) modifier, which is composed of waste plastic and basalt fiber using a specific process, was used for bus lanes to address severe high-temperature deformation diseases due to the heavy loads of buses. The dense gradations of asphalt mixture with a nominal maximum aggregate size of 13.2 mm (AC-13) and 19 mm (AC-20) were selected to fabricate asphalt mixtures. The impact of the modifier PB on the high-temperature rutting resistance, low-temperature crack resistance, and water damage resistance was investigated experimentally. The experimental results showed that adding the modifier PB could enhance the rutting resistance and water damage resistance of asphalt mixtures significantly while maintaining the low-temperature crack resistance. Then, PB-modified asphalt mixtures of AC-13 and AC-20 were employed into a typical pavement structure of a bus lane in Yangzhou city, China, and three types of designed pavement structures were proposed. On this basis, statics analyses of all of the designed structures were performed using the finite element method. The statics analyses revealed that, compared with the standard axle load, the actual over-loaded axle made the pavement structure of the bus lane suffer a 30% higher stress and vertical deformation, leading to accelerated rutting damage on the bus lanes. The addition of the modifier PB could make the pavement structure stronger and compensate for the negative effect caused by the heavy axle load. These findings can be used as a reference for the pavement design of urban bus lanes.
