Plastic concrete fibres

Plastic concrete fibers are a good alternative to rebar in some concrete structures. Concrete plastic fibers, composed of a natural polymer structure with identical bonds of propylene, have been designed with a sine diagram appearance to better inhibit cement matrix and high grip length in concrete.

Product Description – Plastic Fiber Concrete

Plastic concrete fibers are a modern product in the fiber sector used in concrete and are very economical. Concrete flooring fibers have special properties and are a suitable alternative to rebar in some concrete structures. Plastic concrete fibers are produced from a natural polymer form with identical propylene bonds and have a sinusoidal appearance, designed and produced by the Beton Plast Chemical Company for better containment in the cement matrix and high tensile strength in concrete. Plastic fibers have a special use in industrial flooring and are a suitable alternative to rebar in flooring. These plastic fibers reduce the shrinkage of fresh and hardened concrete and increase the resistance to impact and fatigue of concrete. Plastic concrete fibers provide long-term durability and increase the properties and development of structural parameters, as well as control of secondary or thermal cracks in concrete. Another feature of these special concrete fibers is their lower price compared to reinforced concrete construction with reinforcement.

Fiber reinforced concrete , also known as fiber reinforced concrete, uses synthetic fibers in the concrete mix to enhance its properties. These flooring fibers can help control cracks due to plastic shrinkage and drying shrinkage. Reinforcing concrete with fibers improves the long-term durability of the concrete. Fibers can also be more cost-effective than traditional steel mesh reinforcement. Ultimately, these fibers offer an innovative way to enhance the performance of concrete while addressing environmental concerns.

Conditions: Away from cold and frost, heat and direct and prolonged sunlight.

Best storage temperature: +10 to +30 degrees

How to use plastic fibers in concrete

Concrete plastic fibers can be added to concrete mix or shotcrete mortar in various ways:

1 – Add to mixer track at project location

2 – Adding on site (hand-mixed concrete)

3 – Adding plastic fibers to concrete at the concrete manufacturing plant

Note: Be careful to mix for at least one minute per cubic meter of concrete so that the plastic fibers of the concrete are completely combined with the concrete mixture and distributed homogeneously throughout.

Mechanism of action of plastic fibers in concrete

The effect of plastic fibers in concrete on the dynamic increase of mortar depends largely on the reaction between cement mortar and fibers, the result of which can be referred to as increased physical, chemical, and frictional adhesion and mechanical restraint resulting from deformation in the fibers or their geometric deformation.

In fact, the plastic fibers inside the concrete matrix act as a reinforcement or so-called reinforcement, preventing the concrete from breaking and cracking, and in possible cracking, they play the role of a bridge between two cracks.

Safety of plastic fibers in concrete

  • Plastic fibers in concrete are not toxic or hazardous materials, but due to the slow biodegradability of plastic in nature, they pose a problem for the environment if left in nature.
  • If swallowed, consult a doctor.
  • Wear appropriate gloves when working.
  • This material is not flammable.
