To this end, fluorinated semi-interpenetrating polymer networks(semiIPNs) were prepared using different catalyst amounts(denoted as F23-CLF-30-D). The involved curing and phase separation processes were monitored using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, a haze meter and a rheometer. Curing rate constant and activation energy were calculated using a theoretical model and numerical method, respectively. Results revealed that owing to its co-continuous micro-phase separation structure, the F23-CLF-30-D3 semi-IPN exhibited considerably higher tensile strength and elongation at break than pure fluororubber F2314 and the F23-CLF-30-D0 semi-IPN because the phase separation and curing rates matched in the initial stage of curing.An arc Brazilian test revealed that F23-CLF-30-D-based composites used as mock materials for PBXs exhibited excellent mechanical performance and storage stability. Thus, the matched curing and phase separation rates play a crucial role during the fabrication of high-performance semi-IPNs;these factors can be feasibly controlled using an appropriate catalyst amount.展开更多

For the sake of seeking effective measurements to eliminate this bad effect of steam-cured condition on concrete, the water sorptivity and pore structure of steam-cured concretes exposed to different subsequent curing conditions were investigated after steam-curing treatment. The capillary absorption coefficient and porosity of the corresponding concretes were analyzed, and their mechanisms were also discussed. The results indicate that water sorptivity and pore structure of steam-cured concrete are greatly influenced by the curing condition used in subsequent ages. Exposure steam-cured concrete to air condition has an obviously bad effect on its properties and microstructures. Adopting subsequent curing of immersing steam-cured concrete into about 20℃ water after steam curing period can significantly decrease its capillary absorption coefficient and porosity. Steam-cured concrete with 7 d water curing has minimum capillary absorption coefficient and total porosity. Its water sorptivity is decreased by 23% compared with standard curing concrete and the porosity is 9.6% lower. Moreover, the corresponding gradient of water sorptivity and porosity of steam-cured concrete both decrease, thus mictostructure of concrete becomes more homogeneous.展开更多

The mechanical properties of the uniaxial compression specimens cured at 95%(wet-curing) and 50%(dry-curing) relative humidities and cyclic loading-unloading specimens cured at wet-curing were analyzed. Under uniaxial compression, the peak stress loss ratio is higher for dry-curing than for wet-curing. The peak strain decreases with the increase of rubber content, and the peak strain increases with the decrease of curing humidity. Under cyclic loading-unloading, the variation trends of residual strain differences of the normal cement mortar and RCM at each cyclic level with the number of cycles are basically the same, but the failure modes are different. The analysis of the internal mesostructure by a scanning electron microscope(SEM) shows that initial damage is further enhanced by reducing curing humidity and adding rubber aggregate. The damage constitutive model based on strain equivalence principle and statistical theories was used to describe the uniaxial compression characteristics of RCM, and the law of mechanical damage evolution was predicted.展开更多

The results indicate that the epoxy polymeric network I is obtained by the curing reaction between TDE-85 and MeTHPA, while the PU polymeric network II is obtained by the chain-extended and crosslinking reaction between 1,4-BDO, TMP and polyurethane prepolymer（PUP）. The graft chemical bonds are formed between polymer networks I and II that therefore increase the degree of blend and compatibility between epoxy polymer and PU.展开更多

The results show that the effective initial steam-curing duration for pre-cast concrete with lower water-binder ratio was 10 14 h at 50 °C and the initial water-curing duration was 7 14 d. And the hydration evolution of cement, fly ash and slag in pre-cast concrete was obtained respectively by combining the hydrochlorides and EDTA selecting dissolution methods, based on which the contents of hydrated and anhydrate in concrete were calculated and the corresponding dynamic capillary porosity was also determined. Moreover, the comparison between calculated results and experimental ones indicates that the proposed evolution models of microscopic characteristics corresponding to hydration kinetics of cemented materials could be adopted to predict the developing trend of capillary porosity and hydration-products content in pre-cast concrete with fly ash and slag under certain curing conditions.展开更多

FT-IR was adopted to characterize the molecular structure of the novolac-type phenolic resin and the benzoxazine-phenolic copolymer BP31. In order to understand the curing process of the copolymers, the curing behavior and curing kinetic characteristics were studied by differential scanning calorimetry （DSC）, and the catalytical effect of phenolic hydroxyl on the curing behavior of copolymers was investigated. To investigate the thermal properties of this resin, the thermal degradation behaviors of the cured samples were studied by thermal gravimetric （TG） method, and glass-transition temperatures （Tg） of the cured copolymers were also evaluated by DSC. The dynamic Ozawa method was adopted to determine the kinetic parameters of the curing process as well. The activation energy is 78.8 kJ/mol and the reaction rate constant is in the range from 40.0 to 5.2 （K/min）＂ according to reaction temperatures. The Ozawa exponent decreases from 2.4 to 0.7 with the increase of reaction temperature, and curing mechanism is expounded briefly according to the results. TG result shows that the highest char yield of copolymers is 50.3%. The highest Tg of copolymers is 489 K, which is much higher than that of pure benzoxazine resin.展开更多

文摘To investigate the static compressive properties and mechanical damage evolution of rubber cement-based materials(RCBMs) with dry-and wet-curing conditions, uniaxial compression and cyclic loading-unloading tests were carried out on rubber cement mortar(RCM). The mechanical properties of the uniaxial compression specimens cured at 95%(wet-curing) and 50%(dry-curing) relative humidities and cyclic loading-unloading specimens cured at wet-curing were analyzed. Under uniaxial compression, the peak stress loss ratio is higher for dry-curing than for wet-curing. The peak strain decreases with the increase of rubber content, and the peak strain increases with the decrease of curing humidity. Under cyclic loading-unloading, the variation trends of residual strain differences of the normal cement mortar and RCM at each cyclic level with the number of cycles are basically the same, but the failure modes are different. The analysis of the internal mesostructure by a scanning electron microscope(SEM) shows that initial damage is further enhanced by reducing curing humidity and adding rubber aggregate. The damage constitutive model based on strain equivalence principle and statistical theories was used to describe the uniaxial compression characteristics of RCM, and the law of mechanical damage evolution was predicted.

文摘The hydration characteristics of pre-cast concrete considering the effects of effective initial steam-curing and water-curing duration were measured and analyzed with XRD, TG, X-ray CT, SEM-BSE and MIP techniques. The results show that the effective initial steam-curing duration for pre-cast concrete with lower water-binder ratio was 10 14 h at 50 °C and the initial water-curing duration was 7 14 d.

Moreover, the comparison between calculated results and experimental ones indicates that the proposed evolution models of microscopic characteristics corresponding to hydration kinetics of cemented materials could be adopted to predict the developing trend of capillary porosity and hydration-products content in pre-cast concrete with fly ash and slag under certain curing conditions.

文摘Cracks easily generate in concrete at early age owing to the shrinkage deformation.CaO-based expansion agent(CEA)and superabsorbent polymers(SAP)have been extensively used for the mitigation of concrete shrinkage.The macroscopic properties of concrete are highly determined by the microstructure.In this study,the influence of CEA and SAP addition on the pore structure evolution of cement paste under different curing temperatures was evaluated via low-field nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.Test results indicated that,in cement paste,a higher CEA content led to a higher porosity and a larger most probable pore diameter(MPPD).Meanwhile,SAP addition increased the porosity and MPPD of CEA cement paste at early age but decreased them after 7 d,and a higher SAP content always brought a higher porosity and MPPD.Furthermore,the addition of SAP led to a lower porosity and MPPD of CEA cement paste than that of plain cement paste after 14 d.Moreover,the porosity and MPPD of CEA cement paste decreased first and subsequently increased as the curing temperature raised.

文摘Using novolac phenolic resin, aniline and formaldehyde as raw materials, benzoxazine-phenolic copolymers with different percentages of benzoxazine rings were prepared. FT-IR was adopted to characterize the molecular structure of the novolac-type phenolic resin and the benzoxazine-phenolic copolymer BP31. In order to understand the curing process of the copolymers, the curing behavior and curing kinetic characteristics were studied by differential scanning calorimetry （DSC）, and the catalytical effect of phenolic hydroxyl on the curing behavior of copolymers was investigated. To investigate the thermal properties of this resin, the thermal degradation behaviors of the cured samples were studied by thermal gravimetric （TG） method, and glass-transition temperatures （Tg） of the cured copolymers were also evaluated by DSC. The dynamic Ozawa method was adopted to determine the kinetic parameters of the curing process as well. The activation energy is 78.8 kJ/mol and the reaction rate constant is in the range from 40.0 to 5.2 （K/min）＂ according to reaction temperatures. The Ozawa exponent decreases from 2.4 to 0.7 with the increase of reaction temperature, and curing mechanism is expounded briefly according to the results. TG result shows that the highest char yield of copolymers is 50.3%. The highest Tg of copolymers is 489 K, which is much higher than that of pure benzoxazine resin.
文摘Chloride ions(Cl^(-))have been shown to impact the long-lasting nature of reinforced concrete.However,Cl^(-)that are already bound inside the concrete will not lead to the deterioration of the concrete’s characteristics.The composition of the cement-based material,including the type of cement and auxiliary materials,greatly influences the ability of the material to bind Cl^(-),and varied components result in varying binding beha-vior of the Cl^(-).Simultaneously,the Cl^(-)binding process in concrete is influenced by both the internal and exterior surroundings,as well as the curing practices.These factors impact the hydration process of the cement and the internal pore structure of the concrete.Currently,mathematical theories and molecular dynamics simulations have increasingly been employed as the prevalent methods for examining the binding behaviors of Cl^(-)in concrete.These techniques are extensively utilized for predicting the lifespan and conducting microscopic studies of reinforced concrete in Cl^(-)settings.This work proposes recommendations for future research based on a summary of experimental and simulation investigations on Cl^(-)binding.Which will offer theoretical guidance for studying the binding of Cl^(-)in cement-based materials.

文摘Utilizing mine solid waste as a partial cement substitute(CS)to develop new cementitious materials is a significant technological innovation that will decrease the expenses associated with filling mining.To realize the resource utilization of magnesium slag(MS)and blast furnace slag(BFS),the effects of different contents of MS and BFS as partial CSs on the deformation and energy characteristics of cemented tailings backfill on different curing ages(3,7,and 28 d)were discussed.Meanwhile,the destabilization failure energy criterion of the backfill was established from the direction of energy change.The results show that the strength of all backfills increased with increasing curing age,and the strengths of the backfills exceeded 1.342 MPa on day 28.The backfill with 50%BFS+50%cement has the best performance in mechanical properties(the maximum strength can reach 6.129 MPa)and is the best choice among these CS combinations.The trend in peak strain and elastic modulus of the backfill with increasing curing age may vary depending on the CS combination.The energy index at peak stress of the backfill with BFS as a partial CS was significantly higher than that of the backfill under other CS combinations.In contrast,the enhancement of the energy index when MS was used as a partial CS was not as significant as BFS.Sharp changes in the energy consumption ratio after continuous smooth changes can be used as a criterion for destabilization and failure of the backfill.The research results can provide guidance for the application of MS and BFS as partial CSs in mine filling.

文摘In this paper,high cis-1,4 content hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene(cis-HTPB)with different molecular weights was prepared through the oxidative cracking process using cis-butadiene rubber as raw material.Firstly,this article comprehensively compared the differences between cis-HTPB and conventional I-HTPB in terms of molecular weight distribution,functionality,viscosity,molecular polarity,and other physicochemical properties,which provided effective data support for its subsequent application.In addition,the reaction kinetics study showed that cis-HTPB with isocyanate curing agent has high reactivity,allowing it to be rapidly cured at low temperatures,and the cured elastomers had excellent mechanical properties,with tensile strength and elongation up to 1.89 MPa and 1100%,respectively.It was also found that cis-HTPB has extremely excellent low-temperature resistance,and the glass transition temperature(T_(g))of its cured elastomer is as low as-101℃.Based on the above studies,cis-HTPB is applied as a binder in composite solid propellants for the first time to investigate its practical performance,and the results indicated that cis-HTPB-based propellants have excellent process and mechanical properties.
文摘The flavor composition in fresh leaves,flavescent leaves and flue-cured tobacco leaves was identified and analysed by using simultaneous distillation and extraction equipment and GC-MS.The results showed that some of odour component,such as leaf alcohol and its ester,etc,were gradually decreased,and finally all of them disappeared.Some valuable flavor compound,such as β-damascone,farnesyl acetone,neophytadiene,fufural,megastigmatrienone,dihydroactinodiolide,geranyl acetone etc,were largely increased during curing.And some new compounds such as 4-cyclopentene-1,3-dione,2-acetylfulan,4-oxo-α-ionoe,2-methyltetrahydro-furan-3-one,maltoxazine etc were also detected at the end of curing.
