How does Polypropylene Mesh Fiber improve the impermeability of concrete?

Publish Time: 2024-06-24
Polypropylene Mesh Fiber has a significant improvement on the impermeability of concrete, which is mainly due to its special physical properties and structural characteristics.

Uniform distribution and support system of fibers:

After special processing and treatment, Polypropylene Mesh Fiber forms bundles of fibers that are interwoven into a mesh. When added to the concrete base material and stirred, these fiber monofilaments or mesh structures will fully open to form a random support system inside the concrete.

This support system can effectively control the early plastic shrinkage and settlement cracks of concrete and cement mortar, thereby greatly reducing the cracks and pores inside the concrete.

Reduction and crack prevention effect of cracks:

Polypropylene Mesh Fiber can significantly reduce the number, length and width of cracks. This is mainly due to the crack prevention effect of the fiber. When the concrete is subjected to external forces, the fiber will act as a bridge, connecting the two ends of the crack and preventing the further expansion of the crack.

The crack-blocking effect of the fiber reduces the probability of generating connected cracks, thereby significantly reducing the permeability of concrete.

Enhancement of the overall performance of concrete:

The addition of Polypropylene Mesh Fiber not only improves the impermeability of concrete, but also greatly enhances the concrete's resistance to crushing and impact, and enhances the toughness and wear resistance of concrete.

The improvement of these properties has greatly enhanced the durability of concrete, thereby greatly extending the service life of the building and reducing the cost of engineering maintenance.

Tight combination of fiber and cement concrete:

Polypropylene Mesh Fiber has a strong bonding force with the base material of cement concrete, which can ensure the stability of the fiber in concrete.

This tightly combined structure enables the fiber to better play its role and further improve the impermeability of concrete.

Construction principle and effect:

During the construction process, Polypropylene Mesh Fiber destroys the transverse connection between the fiber filaments through the rubbing and friction of the concrete itself, forming a fully opened fiber filament or mesh structure.
This structure can form a large number of polypropylene fiber monofilaments inside the concrete, which can achieve better anti-cracking effect and further improve the anti-permeability performance of concrete.

Polypropylene Mesh Fiber has a significant improvement on the anti-permeability performance of concrete through its special physical properties and structural characteristics. This improvement is not only reflected in the reduction of cracks and crack prevention, but also in the enhancement of the overall performance of concrete and the close combination of fiber and cement concrete. These advantages make Polypropylene Mesh Fiber widely used in concrete engineering.
