Results revealed that mixes of 60 MPa with 2% PVA fibers recorded the highes t strain capacity, which reached (17.6%) com pared to mixes of 60 MPa with 2% PP fibers. The maximum enhancement in the flexural strength was (4.3%),(6%), and (23%) for mixes of 30 MPa, 45 MPa and 60 MPa. This enhancement may open the horizon for using high-strength engineered cementitious composite concrete reinforced with PVA fibers in structural applications exposed to flexural strength, providing a lighter weight due to the exclusion of bar reinforcement. Also, its high strain capacity reduces the tendency for microcracks formation. The standard deviation error bars for the average flexural strengths of bendable concrete mixes with different fiber contents and types show no differences when comparing the same strength and fiber types. For example, mixes of 60 MPa with PVA fibers give less than 2 MPa standard deviation when compared for different fiber volume fractions.","PeriodicalId":507832,"journal":{"name":"Engineering and Technology Journal","volume":"29 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139444059","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nano hydroxyapatite was prepared using two different methods: Synthesis by chemical precipitation method (HA 1 ) and natural source from Boven bone (HA 2 ). The samples are characterized using scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS), X-ray diffractogram (XRD), transition electron microscope (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR) and Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). Also, physical and mechanical properties measurements were detected, including density and hardness. The results indicated that cold sintering could result in Hydroxyapatite with high densification, high purity, and high stability without thermal decomposition compared with traditional sintering. The relative density and hardness for HA 1 are 99% and 502HV, respectively. The relative density and hardness for HA 2 are 69% and 350HV, respectively. It can be observed that the HA 1 sample has higher densification than HA 2 due to the presence of organic matter in natural Hydroxyapatite HA 2 . This organic material will be removed during the cold sintering process, leaving pores that lead to low densification of HA 2 samples. It can be concluded that the synthesis hydroxyapatite (HA 1 ) can be easily sintered by a cold sintering process compared with natural one(HA 2 ).","PeriodicalId":507832,"journal":{"name":"Engineering and Technology Journal","volume":"27 22","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139458119","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
