Using nitro-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils from banana rachis to engineer fracture toughness in cementitious concrete matrix

Using nitro-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils from banana rachis to engineer fracture toughness in cementitious concrete matrix

Abstract Concrete is a robust material under compressive load but lacks toughness, making it prone to brittle failure. In a recent study, researchers engineered concrete at the nano level using nitro-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (NOCNF) to improve its plasticity. After curing for twenty-eight days...
