Abstract:This study employs polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fibers and silane coupling agent (SCA) to augment rubberized concrete mechanical prowess. A multiscale investigation delves into the synergistic enhancement mechanism of SCA on the interfaces of PVA/cement and rubber/cement, considering macroscopic mechanical properties, microscopic structural characteristics, and nanoscale interface interactions. Initially, fundamental mechanical performance tests reveal a notable enhancement in compressive and flexural strength with… Show more
