Abstract

Nanocellulose (NC) is a promising reinforcing material for cementitious composites, but its effect on the mechanical properties of hybrid engineered cementitious composites (ECCs) has not been studied. In this paper, we investigated a hybrid polyethylene (PE)-steel fibre ECC reinforced with NC and the effect of NC dosages ranging from 0.1% to 0.4% on the compressive strength of the hybrid ECC. The optimum quantity of NC for the best mechanical property of ECC was determined. Enhancement of compressive strength was observed for all the mixes with NC compared with the reference mix, and the mix containing 0.2% NC showed the maximum improvement.
