Use of supplementary cementitious materials of CFCCs.

Cementitious materials	Weight of cement (%)	CFs	Extent of improvement	Ref.
MK	50 MK	Sisal	Significant reduction of the calcium hydroxide formation; no signs of fiber degradation	[38, 64, 83]
MK and SF	15 SF or 15 MK	Sisal	Improved the mechanical properties and the durability	[81]
SL, SF, and MK	70 SL/10 MK or 70 SL/10 SF	Kraft pulp	Effective in preventing degradation	[82]
RHA, MK, and NC	30 RHA, MK, and NC	Sisal	The durability of composites was improved owing to the mitigation of fiber degradation	[53]
SF and SL	10 SF and 40% SL	Cannabinus	Slowing down the strength loss and embrittlement	[84]
SF, SL, FA, MK	10% SF/70% SL, 10% MK/70% SL, and 10% MK/10% SF/70% FA	Softwood kraft pulp	Prevented composite degradation due to a reduction in the calcium hydroxide content and the stabilization of the alkali content	[85]
SL, GY, LI	88 SL/10 GY/2 LI (0 cement)	Coir and sisal	Do not appear to have a significant effect on the prevention of ductility dropping	[86]
SF, NRL	13.55 SF/14.55 CF/1.40 NRL	Cellulose	Improved material durability	[20]
