This
study was carried out to investigate the physical and mechanical
properties of mortar cement produced
from Carrot Powder (CP) . To do this, 4 mortar cement
specimens were formed by changing the weight of CP
and cement. Increasing ratio of
CP weight ratio affected the compressive strength, impact,
hardness. As for the bending ,water
absorption and fracture toughness decreased and were affected
positively. It was concluded
that CP might be used in mortar cement production to
replace the cement in certain ratio to make them
profitable and lessen their adverse
effects on the environment. |
