Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research program focused on the effectiveness of recycled nylon fiber from used fishing nets as a reinforcing material of concrete and mortar. The addition of fiber results in the decrease in compressive strength of concrete because of fiber's low Young's modulus. The reduction in strength is observed to be lower with higher fiber fraction and longer fibers. The addition of fiber affords a more ductile mode of failure, which leads to an increase in the load carrying capacity of fiber reinforced mortar. In the experiment, #-shape shows high effectiveness because it enhances flexural performance of mortar. Durability against free-thaw repetitions and chloride ion invasion are enhanced by adding the fiber. The experimental results confirmed that recycled nylon fiber has the potential for effectively reinforcing concrete and mortar and would be a possible way to recycle them, which can realize sustainability in the world.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
素材自体の力学性能が他の一般的な有機繊維と比較して十分ではないリサイクルナイロン繊維をコンクリート補修・補強材として用い、特にコンクリートの引張性能や耐久性を向上できる可能性が示されたことで、今後さらなる研究や実用化に向けた検討および技術開発が期待できる。このことは、有害物質を発生させるため焼却処分が難しいとされる廃棄漁網を回収してリサイクルするための選択肢を増やすこととつながり、海洋生物や海洋環境に与える悪影響を低減させ、地球環境の保全や温暖化の防止にも意義がある。
