Slash Pine Fibers in Fiber Cement Products by davidmonroyb is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes research on using slash pine fibers from the southeastern US in fiber cement products as an alternative to asbestos fibers. Key findings include: - Laboratory tests found slash pine fibers provided benefits over other fibers, including higher modulus of rupture, fracture toughness, dimensional stability, and lower water absorption. Accelerated aging tests also showed better strength retention. - Slash pine fibers are longer, coarser, and have a thicker cell wall than other wood f
