This approach takes advantage of the superelastic effect of shape memory alloy(SMA) and the cohering characteristic of repairing adhesive. These SMA wires and brittle fibers containing adhesives were embedded into concrete beams during concrete casting to form smart reinforced concrete beams. The self-repairing capacity of smart concrete beams was investigated by three-point bending tests. The experimental results show that SMA wires add self-restoration capacity,the concrete beams recover almost completely after incurring an extremely large deflection and the cracks are closed almost completely by the recovery forces of SMA wires. The number or areas of SMA wires has no influence on the tendency of deformation during loading and the tendency of reversion by the superelasticity. The adhesives released from the broken-open fibers fill voids and cracks. The repaired damage enables continued function and prevents further degradation.展开更多

The results indicate that the reaction time of black liquor methylating is 30min, when the ratio of alkali to formaldehyde is controlled at approximately 0.20, decomposition rate of formaldehyde is the lowest and the effect of black liquor methylating is the best, the optimal molar ratio of phenol: formaldehyde to NaOH to H2O of preparing phenolic resin is 1.00 : 1.50 : 0.50 : 9.00, and the suitable viscosity is 27 - 30 Pa· s. At different mass ratios of methylated black liquor to phenolic resin, all terms of performance of black liquor phenolic resin are excellent and satisfy the requirement. All terms of performance of bamboo plywood prepared using this technique are hetter than that of excellent bamboo plywood of national criteria. Using this technique, the cost is depressed by 28.69% without altering the traditional adhesive producing technique flow, and without using additional equipment.展开更多

This air-plasma-grafting-epoxy method yielded a noticeable enhancement in the interfacial adhesion between PBO fiber and thermoplastic matrix resin, with the interlaminar shear strength of the resulting composites increased by 66.7%. DSC and FTIR analyses were then used to study the curing behavior of epoxy coating on PBO fiber surface, deduce the possible grafting reactions and investigate the grafting mechanism. More importantly, TGA measurement showed that the grafting of epoxy onto PBO fiber had almost no effect on the composite heat resistance, and there was more thermoplastic matrix resin adhering to the fiber surface; the latter could also be clearly found in the SEM photos. Thereby, the air-plasma-grafting-epoxy treatment was proved to be an effective method for the improvement of continuous PBO fiber surface adhesive properties.展开更多

Attenuation is introduced to a three-layered composite plate by an adhesive bond layer with viscous behavior. No changes are required to the transfer matrix formulation for the propagation of elastic waves. By introduction of a complex wavenumber, the model can be used to the propagation of attenuative Lamb waves. Numerical examples for a three-layered aluminium-epoxy-aluminium plate show that attenuation values of each mode in plates are related not only to attenuation, but also to the thickness of the bonded layer, which is in agreement with practical situations.展开更多

Taking its effect into account,the improved measurement equations based on the resonance method are presented. The simulated results show that,for the sake of weakening the adhesive's influence on the measured results,the adhesive should be spreaded as thin as possible when specimen is prepared,the adhesive's density and loss factor should be selected as small as possible also,and its Young's modulus should be selected according to the damping material being measured;the same adhesion condition effects differently on the test results of different damping materials,i.e. the error due to the adhesive is more inconspicuous if the damping layer has bigger thickness,modulus,loss factor and a certain density according to the damping material being measured. These conclusions provide theoretical basis for selecting adhesive,improving adhesion technology,and designing specimen.展开更多

In ...Surface Preparation is very important in adhesive b on ding of spray coatings to the surface of a work piece. The common practice is gr it-blasting of the surface before subjecting it to the spray coating process. In this study, grit-blasting of an AISI 4130 steel (of different heat treatmen ts) with Al 2O 3 particles was studied. Various grit-blasting parameters such as blasting particle size, the distance between blasting nozzle and the work pi ece (25, 30 and 40 cm.), blasting pressure (3,4,5,6 and 7 bars), blasting time ( 3, 6 and 10 seconds), and the blasting angle (45° and 90°) were examined in or der to find the optimum roughness. The mean roughness (Ra) of the grit-blasted surfaces were measured and the vari ations of the roughness with respect to the above mentioned variables were studi ed. The results show that by increasing blasting time, surface roughness increas es up to a maximum and then slightly decreases it with further duration of t he process. On the other hand a lengthy blasting causes some undesirable results such as an increase in residual particles between surface irregularities. There fore an optimum blasting time is of great importance. Increasing the blasting pr essure also provides a rougher surface, but in grit blasting of harder specimens the surface roughness decreases when the pressure reaches a certain limit. About the blasting angle, it was noticed that an angle of 45° results in less r esidual particles between the surface irregularities, in comparison to the angle of 90°. After grit-blasting, the specimens were plasma spray coated with 80% ZrO 2-20 % Y 2O 3 powder. The adhesive strength of the coating to the substrate was the n measured according to the DIN 50160 standard. The results show that for a certain base metal, the adhesive strength is directl y related to the surface roughness of the base material. Residual particles afte r grit-blasting the surface of the specimens can also have a strong deteriorati ng effect on adhesive strength. Finally, it was shown that the hardness of the b ase material had a direct effect on the adhesive strength of the sprayed coating s.展开更多

This air-plasma-grafting-epoxy method yielded a noticeable enhancement in the interfacial adhesion between PBO fiber and thermoplastic matrix resin, with the interlaminar shear strength of the resulting composites increased by 66.7%. DSC and FTIR analyses were then used to study the curing behavior of epoxy coating on PBO fiber surface, deduce the possible grafting reactions and investigate the grafting mechanism. More importantly, TGA measurement showed that the grafting of epoxy onto PBO fiber had almost no effect on the composite heat resistance, and there was more thermoplastic matrix resin adhering to the fiber surface; the latter could also be clearly found in the SEM photos. Thereby, the air-plasma-grafting-epoxy treatment was proved to be an effective method for the improvement of continuous PBO fiber surface adhesive properties.
文摘The effect of introducing attenuation on Lamb wave dispersion curves is studied in this paper. Attenuation is introduced to a three-layered composite plate by an adhesive bond layer with viscous behavior. No changes are required to the transfer matrix formulation for the propagation of elastic waves. By introduction of a complex wavenumber, the model can be used to the propagation of attenuative Lamb waves. Numerical examples for a three-layered aluminium-epoxy-aluminium plate show that attenuation values of each mode in plates are related not only to attenuation, but also to the thickness of the bonded layer, which is in agreement with practical situations.

文摘Surface Preparation is very important in adhesive b on ding of spray coatings to the surface of a work piece. The common practice is gr it-blasting of the surface before subjecting it to the spray coating process. In this study, grit-blasting of an AISI 4130 steel (of different heat treatmen ts) with Al 2O 3 particles was studied. Various grit-blasting parameters such as blasting particle size, the distance between blasting nozzle and the work pi ece (25, 30 and 40 cm.), blasting pressure (3,4,5,6 and 7 bars), blasting time ( 3, 6 and 10 seconds), and the blasting angle (45° and 90°) were examined in or der to find the optimum roughness. The mean roughness (Ra) of the grit-blasted surfaces were measured and the vari ations of the roughness with respect to the above mentioned variables were studi ed. The results show that by increasing blasting time, surface roughness increas es up to a maximum and then slightly decreases it with further duration of t he process. On the other hand a lengthy blasting causes some undesirable results such as an increase in residual particles between surface irregularities. There fore an optimum blasting time is of great importance. Increasing the blasting pr essure also provides a rougher surface, but in grit blasting of harder specimens the surface roughness decreases when the pressure reaches a certain limit. About the blasting angle, it was noticed that an angle of 45° results in less r esidual particles between the surface irregularities, in comparison to the angle of 90°. After grit-blasting, the specimens were plasma spray coated with 80% ZrO 2-20 % Y 2O 3 powder. The adhesive strength of the coating to the substrate was the n measured according to the DIN 50160 standard. The results show that for a certain base metal, the adhesive strength is directl y related to the surface roughness of the base material. Residual particles afte r grit-blasting the surface of the specimens can also have a strong deteriorati ng effect on adhesive strength.

文摘Objective:Endometrial tuberculosis,which commonly affects women of reproductive age,is a significant cause of intrauterine adhesions(IUA),potentially leading to hypomenorrhea,amenorrhea,and infertility.Hysteroscopic adhesiolysis is the primary treatment for IUA;however,studies specifically addressing its efficacy in tuberculosisinduced IUA remain scarce.This study aims to evaluate the therapeutic outcomes of hysteroscopic adhesiolysis for IUA caused by endometrial tuberculosis.Methods:This retrospective cohort study included patients diagnosed with tuberculosisinduced IUA who underwent hysteroscopic adhesiolysis at the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between May 2014 and October 2022.Clinical data including age,medical history,adhesion severity,surgical treatment,and reproductive outcomes were analyzed.Results:Among 39 patients identified,2 were lost to follow-up.A total of 37 patients were included,with a follow-up duration ranging from 6 months to 9 years.Hypomenorrhea was reported in 24(64.9%)patients,secondary amenorrhea in 10(27.0%)patients,and normal menstruation in 3(8.1%)patients.Most patients presented with primary infertility(59.5%),and only 2(5.4%)had secondary infertility.The median American Fertility Society(AFS)score at initial assessment was 10(range,8−12);8(21.6%)patients had moderate IUA,and 29(78.4%)had severe IUA.A total of 86 surgical procedures were performed across 37 patients,with 27 patients undergoing 2 or more surgeries.Postoperatively,25(67.6%)patients achieved normalization of the uterine cavity,while 12(32.4%)still had a reduced cavity.Only 7(18.9%)patients had a grossly normal endometrium at the final surgery,all of whom had moderate adhesions at the initial procedure.Menstrual flow returned to normal in 12(32.4%)patients,while 25(67.6%)continued to experience hypomenorrhea.Of 29 patients who attempted in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer(IVF-ET),only 6(20.7%)conceived.Among these,4(13.8%)delivered at term via cesarean section;one case was complicated by postpartum hemorrhage due to uterine atony and another by placental adhesion.Conclusion:Endometrial tuberculosis can lead to severe IUA.Hysteroscopic adhesiolysis facilitates cavity restoration and improvement of menstrual conditions,but the overall reproductive outcomes remain suboptimal.

文摘Large-area two-dimensional(2D)materials,such as graphene,MoS_(2),WS_(2),h-BN,black phosphorus,and MXenes,are a class of advanced materials with many possible applications.Different applications need different substrates,and each substrate may need a different way of transferring the 2D material onto it.Problems such as local stress concentrations,an uneven surface tension,inconsistent adhesion,mechanical damage and contamination during the transfer can adversely affect the quality and properties of the transferred material.Therefore,how to improve the integrity,flatness and cleanness of large area 2D materials is a challenge.In order to achieve high-quality transfer,the main concern is to control the interface adhesion between the substrate,the 2D material and the transfer medium.This review focuses on this topic,and finally,in order to promote the industrial use of large area 2D materials,provides a recipe for this transfer process based on the requirements of the application,and points out the current problems and directions for future development.

文摘Interfacial adhesion between carbon fibers(CF)and polyetherketoneketone(PEKK)is a key factor that affects the mechanical performances of their composites.It is therefore of great importance to impregnate the CF bundles with PEKK as effi-ciently as possible.We report that PEKK with a good dispersion in a mixed solution of 4-chlorophenol and 1,2-dichloroethane can be introduced onto CF surfaces by solution impregnation and curing at 280,320,340 and 360℃.The excellent wettability or infiltra-tion of the PEKK solution guarantees a full covering and its tight binding to CFs,making it possible to evaluate the interfacial shear strength(IFSS)with the microdroplet method.The interior of the CF bundles is completely and uniformly filled with PEKK by solu-tion impregnation,leading to a high interlaminar shear strength(ILSS).The maximum IFSS and ILSS reached 107.8 and 99.3 MPa,respectively.Such superior shear properties are ascribed to the formation of amorphous PEKK in the small spaces between CFs.
文摘Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of normal mouse serum on radiation pneumonitis in mice and explore the possible mechanism.Methods Mouse models of radiation pneumonitis induced by thoracic radiation exposure were given intravenous injections of 100μL normal mouse serum or normal saline immediately after the exposure followed by injections once every other day for a total of 8 injections.On the 15th day after irradiation,histopathological changes of the lungs of the mice were examined using HE staining,the levels of TNF-α,TGF-β,IL-1αand IL-6 in the lung tissue and serum were detected using ELISA,and the percentages of lymphocytes in the lung tissue were analyzed with flow cytometry.High-throughput sequencing of exosome miRNA was carried out to explore the changes in the signaling pathways.The mRNA expression levels of the immune-related genes were detected by qRT-PCR,and the protein expressions of talin-1,tensin2,FAK,vinculin,α-actinin and paxillin in the focal adhesion signaling pathway were detected with Western blotting.Results In the mouse models of radiation pneumonitis,injections of normal mouse serum significantly decreased the lung organ coefficient,lowered the levels of TNF-α,TGF-β,IL-1αand IL-6 in the serum and lung tissues,and ameliorated infiltration of CD45^(+),CD4^(+)and Treg lymphocytes in the lung tissue(all P<0.05).The expression levels of Egfr and Pik3cd genes at both the mRNA and protein levels and the protein expressions of talin-1,tensin2,FAK,vinculin,α‑actinin and paxillin were all significantly down‑regulated in the mouse models after normal mouse serum treatment.Conclusion Normal mouse serum ameliorates radiation pneumonitis in mice by inhibiting the expressions of key proteins in the Focal adhesion signaling pathway.
