Compatibility between Rice Straw Fibers with Different Pretreatments and Ordinary Portland Cement
The compatibility between crop straw and Portland cement greatly restrict the application of crop straw in cement-based materials. In this study, rice straw fibers with different pretreatments were added to ordinary Portland cement (OPC), and the influence of different rice straw fiber (RF) content...

The compatibility between crop straw and Portland cement greatly restrict the application of crop straw in cement-based materials. In this study, rice straw fibers with different pretreatments were added to ordinary Portland cement (OPC), and the influence of different rice straw fiber (RF) content on the hydration process of OPC was measured using calorimeter tests. Additionally, compatibility between RF and OPC was evaluated using the inhibitory index. As a result, steam explosion treatment of rice straw removed most hemicellulose and post-treatment bleaching was used for delignification. As compared with the pure OPC, addition of RF inhibited the hydration of OPC, and the inhibition degree reduced with the increase in pretreatment degree of RF. The inhibitory index grade of different RF filled OPC (RF-OPC) samples is directly related to hemicellulose and lignin content.
