Book on unconventional and sustainable construction has Fibrenamics seal
The book “Sustainable and Nonconventional Construction Materials Using Inorganic Bonded Fiber Composites”, by Woodhead Publishing, has a chapter entirely dedicated to the work developed by three specialists from Fibrenamics.
“Macro- and nanodimensional plant fiber reinforcements for cementitious composites” is the name of the thirteenth chapter of this book and is authored by Shama Parveen, from the area of nanomaterials, Sohel Rana, of composite materials, and Raul Fangueiro, coordinator of Fibrenamics and renowned specialist in the field of advanced materials.
The book was published this year and aims to provide a comprehensive review of the innovative research associated with building components based on inorganic bonded composites. Exploring natural fibers as reinforcement elements and alternative inorganic binders based on agricultural and industrial waste, this book also considers the performance and applications of fibrous composites as building materials and components.
