Electrochemical oxidation of recycled carbon fibers for an improved interaction toward alkali-activated composites

Huanyu Li et al.

Summary: In this study, recycled carbon fibers were used as reinforcements in fly ash-GGBS alkali-activated composites. Electrochemical treatment was applied to enhance the bond between the fiber and matrix, resulting in an improvement of the flexural behavior of the composite. However, this method also slightly increased the porosity of the fiber-reinforced samples.
