Development of strain hardening ultra-high performance concrete incorporating carbon nanofiber coated polyethylene fibers

A novel idea of using carbon nanofibers (CNFs) to strengthen the interface transition zone (ITZ) and to enhance the interface frictional bond strength between polyethylene (PE) fibers and cement matrix was proposed and realized by coating CNFs on surface of PE fibers through hydrophobic interactions...
