“…behavior under fire [21]. This fire resistance, very important in biocomposites [24][25], was also reported in cement composites reinforced with PO fibers [17], where the material did not burn under any fire exposure conditions. Recently, another approach to PO recycling has appeared to developed nanocomposites based on cellullose nanocrystals obtained from PO treatment [26].…”

The development of biocomposites has valorized some natural products related to natural processes or crop industries. In this regard, Posidonia oceanica is a marine phanerogam typical of Mediterranean coasts, in which due to tourism industry a lot of resources are destined to remove and treat Posidonia residues left on beaches. In this work an alternative to recycle this natural waste has been studied. Biocomposites with Posidonia and pine-wood particles were tested as an alternative to structural wood particle boards used in construction. Different substitution ratios (pine by Posidonia) were prepared in two different polymeric matrices and their mechanical properties were tested. Particles boards made in 75% Posidonia oceanica and 25% wood particles and a MDI matrix (20 to 30% by fibers mass) showed the best strength and stiffness to density ratios. This stiffness was even similar to a panel made totally in wood and MDI in the same dosage, i.e. 75% of pine fibers could be replaced by Posidonia with low stiffness loss.

“…The most promising use of the geopolymers is for high temperature insulators [7], which should withstand elevated temperature for a prolonged period of time. Geo-polymers are the most promising eco-friendly materials and an alternative to Portland cement and other cementitious materials due to their proven durability, mechanical strength and thermal properties [8][9].…”

This article signifies the improved performance of the various types of fabric reinforcement of geopolymer as a function of physical, thermal, mechanical, and heat-resistant properties at elevated temperatures. Geopolymer mixed with designed Si:Al ratios of 15.6 were synthesized using three different types of fabric reinforcement such as carbon, E-glass, and basalt fibers. Heat testing was conducted on 3-mm-thick panels with 15 9 90 mm surface exposure region. The strength of carbon-based geocomposite increased toward a higher temperature. The basalt-reinforced geocomposite strength decreased due to the catastrophic failure in matrix region. The poor bridging effect and dissolution of fabric was observed in the E-glass-reinforced geocomposite. At an elevated temperature, fiber bridging was observed in carbon fabric-reinforced geopolymer matrix. Among all the fabrics, carbon proved to be suitable candidate for the hightemperature applications in thermal barrier coatings and fire-resistant panels.
