Abstract

En este trabajo se realizó la caracterización mecánica de un material compuesto de matriz yeso reforzado con tres diferentes porcientos másicos de fibra de caña de azúcar (1 %, 2 % y 3 %), con el objetivo de su posible utilización en la fabricación de elementos de construcción. Los análisis fueron hechos a través de ensayos de resistencia a compresión y flexión. La resistencia a  tracción se calculó a partir de los resultados del ensayo a flexión. De acuerdo con los resultados es posible afirmar que existe una gran influencia de los porcientos de fibra de caña de azúcar en la mejoría de las propiedades mecánicas del material compuesto, las muestras reforzadas con un 2 % de fibras fueron las que presentaron las mejores propiedades. Finalmente se realizó la comparación de los resultados obtenidos con algunos reportes de la literatura y se obtuvieron propiedades similares a otros compuestos estudiados.

Abstract

Presently work was carried out the mechanical characterization of a composite of gypsum matrix reinforced with three different mass concentrations of sugarcane fibers (1 %, 2 % and 3 %), with the objective of their possible use in the production of construction elements. The analysis was made by compression and flexural strength tests. Also, through a correlation with the flexural test, it was calculated the tensile properties. With the results of the tests, it was possible to say that there is an influence of the concentration of sugarcane fibers in improving the mechanical properties of the product. The samples reinforced with 2 % of fibers had the best values for flexural, tensile and compression strength. Finally the comparison of the results obtained with some reports of the literature is carried out, and it is verified that the same ones have values approached in the resistance to the flexural and compression strength.
