Five modification methods are adopted for wheat straw fibers (WSFs). e effects of modification methods on the water absorbency of wheat straw fiber/wheat straw fiber cement-based composite (WSFCC) and the mechanical properties of WSFCC are analyzed. e crystallinity, chemical structure, and micromorphology of WSFs and WSFCC 28-day specimens are characterized by XRD, FTIR, and SEM methods. e results show that the water absorption of WSFs modified with sodium silicate solution, pure acrylic acid emulsion, and silicone waterproof emulsion surface spraying is 10.67%, 5.18%, and 1.05% lower than that of unmodified WSFs, respectively. Alkali modification is the ideal method for improving the strength of WSFCC. Establishing a fitting formula of the relationship between water absorption of WSFs and strength of WSFCC specimens has important theoretical and practical guiding significance for development and application of WSFCC.
