The physical, mechanical, water purification and temperature properties of fiber reinforced porous hwang-toh green roof concrete have been evaluated in this study. The effect of the depending on replacement ratio of blast furnace slag to cement was investigated such that the replacement ratio is varied to 0 % and 30 %. Also, the replacement ratios of hwang-toh were 0, 20 and 30 %. The polyvinyl alcohol fiber was used for the reinforcing fiber. A series of pH test, unit weight, void ratio, compressive strength, after purification and variation of temperature test have been performed to evaluate the performance, water purification effect and temperature properties of the fiber reinforced porous hwang-toh green roof concrete. The test results indicate that the physical and mechanical properties of fiber reinforced porous hwang-toh green roof concrete is affected by the replacement ratio of the blast furnace slag and hwang-toh contents. Results of purifying water showed that the water purification effect of porous hwang-toh green roof concrete is about 40 %. Also, the temperature properties test results indicate the green roof blocks using fiber reinforced porous hwang-toh green roof concrete have insulation and temperature reduction effect.

An experimental investigation on the strength and behavior of High Performance Fiber Reinforced Cement Composite(HPFRCC) column with Polyvinyl alcohol(PVA) fibers under axial load have been carried out. The columns were subjected to monotonic axial compression until failure. The variables in this study are the combination ratio of PVA, and the volumetric ratio of transverse reinforcement. Test results showed that the fibers, when used in PVA2.0, could result in superior composite performance compared to their individual fiber reinforced cement composites.

Fresh and hardened behaviors of a new hybrid fiber (steel fiber, polyvinyl alcohol fiber and calcium carbonate whisker) reinforced cementitious composites (HyFRCC) with admixtures (fly ash, silica fume and water reducer) have been studied. Within the limitations of the equipment and testing program, it is illustrated that the rheological properties of the new HyFRCC conform to the modified Bingham model. The relations between flow spread and yield stress as well as flow rate and plastic viscosity both conform well with negative exponent correlation, justifying that slump flow and flow rate test can be applied to replace the other two as simple rheology measurement and control method in jobsite. In addition, for the new HyFRCC with fly ash and water reducer, the mathematical model between the rheological and mechanical properties conform well with the quadratic function, and these quadratic function curves are always concave upward. Based on mathematical analysis, an optimal range of rheology/ flowability can be identified to achieve ideal mechanical properties. In addition, this optimization method can be extended to PVA fiber reinforced cement-based composites.

In this paper, the flame-retardant wall paper was successfully prepared with recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) short cut fiber with flame-retardant property and wood pulp using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as binder followed by treatment of non-halogen flame retardant. Physical properties such as formation index, tensile strength, elongation, and burst strength increased as defibrillation increased except tear strength. Bulk increased but formation index, tensile strength, elongation and burst strength decreased along with addition of PET short cut fiber. It was also found that tear strength rose significantly up to 30% of PET short cut fiber and then declined (fell) rapidly. As addition level of PVA increased tensile strength, elongation and burst strength increased, but tear strength decreased slightly. Addition of 20% of PET short cut fiber and 13% of PVA provided the flame-retardant wall paper with both improved flameproofing and physical properties.

본 연구에서는 미생물 고결토의 압축강도 및 인장강도 개선을 위하여 PVA(Polyvinyl alcohol) 섬유를 혼합하는 연구를 수행하였다. 미생물 고결토의 인장강도 특성을 개선하기 위해 모래에 섬유를 혼합한 다음 미생물 배양액을 7일 동안 1일 2회 총14회 반복주입하여 고결을 유도하였다. 모래는 Ottawa모래를 사용하였으며, 섬유는 PVA섬유를 세 종류의 함유량(0, 0.4, 0.8%)으로 혼합하였다. 미생물은 Bacillus sp. 미생물을 사용하였으며, 공시체의 크기는 직경 5cm, 높이 10cm로 제작하였다. 고결이 완료된 다음 일축압축강도, 인장강도시험을 실시하였으며, 시험 후에는 탄산칼슘 석출량과 SEM 분석을 실시하였다. 섬유의 함유량이 증가함에 따라 평균 일축압축강도는 증가하다가 약간 감소하는 경향을 보이지만, 인장강도는 점진적으로 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 탄산칼슘 석출량이 유사하다고 볼 경우, 압축강도는 약 30%의 강도 증가를 발생하였지만, 인장강도는 약 160%의 강도 증가를 보였다. 공시체의 취성도를 나타내는 압축강도와 인장강도의 비는 섬유 함유량이 0%인 경우 약 8 정도에서 섬유 함유량이 0.8%로 증가할 경우 4까지 감소하였으며, 동일한 조건에서 섬유의 함유량이 증가할수록 인장강도의 증가 폭은 커짐을 확인하였다. 이러한 섬유를 혼합한 미생물 고결토는 전단파괴 방지 및 인장강도 증진을 요하는 사면 등의 분야에 적용 가능 할 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구는 PVA(polyvinyl alcohol) 섬유와 VAE(vinyl acetate ethylene) 분말 폴리머를 사용한 시멘트복합체의 압축 휨강도 와 온도변화에 따른 충격파괴거동을 연구하였다. 충격시험은 $-35^{\circ}C$, $0^{\circ}C$ 및 $35^{\circ}C$의 선정된 온도조건에서 실시하였다. 본 실험에서는 시멘트 복합체와 일반 모르타르에 대한 충격파괴 에너지와 변위, 시간을 얻기 위해 낙하 충격시험기(Ceast 9350)를 사용하여 충격시험을 수행하였다. 강도시험결과, PVA 섬유와 VAE 분말 폴리머의 휨강도는 모두 증가하였다. PVA 섬유보강 시멘트복합체의 경우 재령 28일에서의 압축강도는 약간 감소하였으나, 휨강도는 일반 모르타르 강도보다 24.4% 증가하였다. 낙하 충격시험 결과, PVA 섬유보강 시멘트복합체 시편은 섬유의 가교역할로 인한 균열발생의 억제와 에너지 분산에 의한 미세균열이 발생하였으며, 충격에 의한 배면파괴와 관통에 대하여 억제되었다. 반면 VAE 분말 폴리머 시멘트복합체와 일반 모르타르의 시편은 대부분 큰 균열이나 관통파괴 되었다. 충격하중을 받는 시멘트복합체와 일반 모르타르의 시편은 대부분 국부적인 취성파괴거동을 보이며, PVA 섬유보강에 의한 휨성능 증진으로 인해 충격에 대한 저항성능이 크게 향상되었다.

In this study, the fiber orientation distribution (FOD) is investigated using both micro-CT (computerized tomography) and image analysis of physically cut specimens prepared from Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) fiber reinforced cemented Toyoura sand. The micro-CT images of the fiber reinforced cemented sand specimens were visualized in horizontal and vertical sections. Scans were obtained using a frame rate of two frames and an exposure time of 500 milliseconds. The number of images was set to optimize and typically resulted in approximately 3000 images. Then, the angles of the fibers for horizontal sections and in vertical section were calculated using the VGStudio MAX software. The number of fibers intersecting horizontal and vertical sections are counted using these images. A similar approach was used for physically cut specimens. The variation of results of fiber orientation between micro-CT scans and visual count were approximately 4-8%. The micro-CT scans were able to precisely investigate the fiber orientation distribution of fibers in these samples. The results show that 85-90% of the PVA fibers are oriented between ±30° of horizontal, and approximately 95% of fibers have an orientation that lies within ±45° of the horizontal plane. Finally, a comparison of experimental results with the generalized fiber orientation distribution function 𝜌(θ) is presented for isotropic and anisotropic distribution in fiber reinforced cemented Toyoura sand specimens. Experimentally, it can be seen that the average ratio of the number of fibers intersecting the finite area on a vertical plane to number of fibers intersecting the finite area on a horizontal plane (N^V_tot/N^H_tot) cut through a sample varies from 2.08 to 2.12 (an average ratio of 2.10 is obtained in this study). Based up on the analytical predictions, it can be seen that the average N^V_tot/N^H_tot ratio varies from 2.13 to 2.17 for varying n values (an average ratio of 2.15).

In order to enhance the greenness in the strain-hardening composites and to reduce the high cost of typical polyvinyl alcohol fiber reinforced engineered cementitious composite (PVA-ECC), an affordable strain-hardening composite with green binder content has been proposed. For optimizing the strain-hardening behavior of cementitious composites, this paper investigates the effects of polypropylene fibers on the first cracking strength, fracture properties, and micromechanical parameters of cementitious composites. For this purpose, digital image correlation (DIC) technique was utilized to monitor crack propagation. In addition, to have an in-depth understanding of fiber/matrix interaction, scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis was used. To understand the effect of fibers on the strain hardening behavior of cementitious composites, ten mixes were designed with the variables of fiber length and volume. To investigate the micromechanical parameters from fracture tests on notched beam specimens, a novel technique has been suggested. In this regard, mechanical and fracture tests were carried out, and the results have been discussed utilizing both fracture and micromechanical concepts. This study shows that the fiber length and volume have optimal values; therefore, using fibers without considering the optimal values has negative effects on the strain-hardening behavior of cementitious composites.
