Cementitious Mortar Properties with Coconut Fiber and Microcellulose Additions

An experimental dataset from a research paper evaluating the influence of coconut fiber and microcellulose crystalline additions on cementitious mortar properties. The work by Luana Jéssica Capelin includes tests for compressive strength, flexural tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, water absorption, and microscopic analysis. The results indicate specific content levels for performance improvements.

Use Cases

• Predicting flexural tensile strength based on coconut fiber and microcellulose content
• Analyzing trade-offs between mechanical properties and material additions from described test results
• Modeling the relationship between water absorption and void index for composite mortars
• Comparing material performance using data from Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy tests mentioned in the description

Strengths

• Includes results from multiple standardized tests: consistency index, compressive strength, flexural tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, water absorption, void index, specific mass
• Uses advanced characterization techniques: Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy
• Evaluates specific additive contents, such as 0.2% coconut fiber and 0.3% microcellulose crystalline, for performance impact

Limitations

• Row count and dataset scale are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified
