Cellulose Fibers

Fiber Length: 500–600 μm

Tensile Strength: 600–900 MPa

Advantages of Natural Fiber Reinforced Concrete:

✅ High water absorption, which helps regulate moisture within the concrete.

✅ Promotes internal curing and reduces drying shrinkage.

✅ Eco-friendly and sustainably sourced.

✅ Excellent dispersibility in the mix.

 

Cellulose fiber, when integrated into concrete mix, gives cellulose fiber reinforced concrete improved workability and shrinkage resistance.

 

Choose the Right Fibers for Concrete

When you add synthetic fibers to concrete, it strengthens the concrete mix. Concrete fibers reinforce the concrete, making it last longer and reducing the chance for repairs.

 

Yuanwang’s synthetic concrete fibers are designed to prevent cracks in your concrete structures.

 

Compared to fiber reinforced polymer concrete, synthetic fiber concrete reinforcement is more cost-effective and it has better compressive strength and durability.

 

Compared to inorganic fibers (such as steel or glass fibers), our organic fiber for reinforced concrete offers strong alkali resistance. Fibers like polypropylene (PP) can withstand repeated loading and provide excellent fatigue resistance.

 

Advantages of Concrete Reinforcing Fibers

Using concrete reinforcing fibers, you will achieve high-performance fiber-reinforced concrete:

 

⑴  Significantly improved crack resistance – Fibers effectively suppress microcracks caused by plastic shrinkage and drying shrinkage in concrete.

 

⑵  Enhanced toughness – Fibers bridge cracks and slow down their propagation, transforming concrete from brittle to tough.

 

⑶  Improved impermeability and durability – By reducing cracks, fibers increase the density of the concrete.

Explore Different Types of Concrete Fibers

PVA Fiber

Yuanwang PVA fibers are becoming more popular due to their exceptional strength and durability. They are also resistant to UV light and ideal for outdoor applications.

PAN fiber is a synthetic fiber that is specifically designed for construction applications. It has great durability to reinforce concrete and other building materials.

PET Fiber

Yuanwang PET fiber is also known as polyester fiber. It is a synthetic monofilament short fiber. It increases the strength and durability of the concrete and crack resistance.

PP Fibers

Polypropylene fiber (PP fiber) is an essential fiber additive for mortar or concrete to control plastic and dry shrinkage. Thus PP is also called anti-cracking fiber.

Concrete Fibers

The macro synthetic fiber reinforces concrete toughness, improving the impact resistance while reducing cracking. It provides strength and durability.

Answers to Your Query

What is an additive in asphalt concrete?

The essential additives in asphalt is fiber reinforcement. For superior asphalt performance, we recommend two exceptional options: PAN fiber and PET fiber.

 

1. PAN Fiber : PAN fiber reinforces asphalt by enhancing its tensile strength and durability. Its high-modulus properties improve resistance to cracking, rutting, and fatigue, ensuring longevity and structural integrity in road surfaces.

 

2. PET Fiber : PET fiber offers excellent binding properties to asphalt mixtures. It enhances cohesion and stability, reducing the potential for moisture-induced damage, cracking, and pothole formation.

 

Both PAN and PET fibers serve as effective additives, contributing to enhanced asphalt quality, longevity, and overall pavement performance.

Can you suggest any additives to enhance the performance of concrete for road surfaces?

Concrete tends to dry quickly in hot and dry summer weather and may develop cracks. Therefore, incorporating high-quality additives becomes essential.

 

To address this concern, we recommend the following general formula:

 

1. Add 2-3 kilograms of Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) for improved water retention and extended workability.

 

2. To prevent cracking in road surface concrete, we suggest the addition of PAN or PVA fibers. These fibers are resistant to dissolution, especially in high summer temperatures.

How much PET fiber should I use in my concrete mix?

The amount of PET fiber needed will depend on several factors, including the application, the desired performance characteristics, and the properties of the concrete mix. Typically, PET fiber is added at a rate of 0.6-1.5 kg per cubic meter of concrete, but this can vary depending on the specific application.

 

We recommend consulting with a concrete expert or our Yuanwang technical support team for guidance on the appropriate amount of PET fiber for your project.

Can you polish concrete with fiber mesh in it?

Yes! Concrete with fiber mesh can be polished. However, the presence of fiber mesh may affect the polishing process and the final appearance of the concrete surface. Therefore, we recommend you consult with a concrete polishing expert or contact us for proper guidance.

How is Yuanwang PET fiber used in construction?

PET fiber is typically added to concrete during the mixing process. The fibers become dispersed throughout the concrete matrix and help to distribute stress evenly and prevent cracking. PET fiber is often used in slabs, pavements, precast elements, and shotcrete applications.

Concrete fiber vs rebar, which is better for concrete?

Rebar offers strength and stability. It enhances tensile strength in heavy-duty applications. Concrete fibers are often preferred for their ease of use. Fiber reinforcement excels in enhancing crack resistance and flexural strength. This makes fiber a preferred choice for most concrete applications. It can minimize shrinkage cracking and increase durability.

Do you need rebar with fiber reinforced concrete

Usually, fiber-reinforced concrete can be strong enough without needing traditional rebar. However, it depends on the project. Sometimes, extra reinforcement like rebar might be needed. It would help if you considered the factors like load-bearing capacity, structural design, and more. Consulting with an engineer or contacting us is best to decide what’s needed for your project.

Is Yuanwang PET fiber safe to use in construction?

Yes, PET fiber is safe to use in construction. It is non-toxic, non-corrosive, and does not release any harmful substances into the environment. Additionally, PET fiber is resistant to moisture, mold, and mildew, making it a good choice for use in humid or wet environments.

What are the benefits of using Yuanwang PET fiber in construction?

Using PET fiber in construction can offer several benefits, including increased crack resistance, improved durability, reduced maintenance costs, and enhanced impact and abrasion resistance. Additionally, using PET fiber can help reduce the amount of steel reinforcement needed in concrete, which can lower construction costs and reduce the project’s environmental impact.
