Thermo-mechanical properties of fibre reinforced cement-based foam exposed to sulphate
Author(s): Farnaz Batool, Muhammad Mamun, Vivek Bindiganavile
This paper investigates the effect sulphate exposure has on the thermal conductivity and mechanical strength of low density cement based foams, with and without microfiber reinforcement. This was done by ...
