模拟降雨条件下料浆石对土壤水分入渗的影响

论文基于田间坡地人工模拟降雨实验,分析了料浆石覆盖及嵌入对入渗过程的影响,对比了其入渗速率及拟合参数的变化趋势。其结果表明,随料浆石覆盖度及料浆石嵌入含量的增加,入渗补给系数逐渐减小,且后者对其影响显著;料浆石嵌入小区的平均入渗速率及稳定入渗速率随料浆石含量的增加而缓慢减小。Kostiakov入渗经验公式和Ph ilip方程均可以对降雨入渗过程进行描述。

Preparation,Structure Characterization and Hydrodesulfurization Performance of B-Ni_2P/SBA-15/Cordierite Monolithic Catalysts

A series of B-Ni2P/SBA-15/cord monolithic catalysts were prepared by coating the slurry of the B-Ni2P/SBA-15 precursors on a pretreated cordierite support, and followed by temperature-programmed reduction in a H2 flow. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD） and N2 adsorption-desorption technique. The catalytic activities for the hydrodesulfurization （HDS） of dibenzothiophene （DBT） were evaluated. The results showed that Ni2P phase was present in all B-Ni2P/SBA-1 5/cord monolithic catalysts. The specific surface areas （SBET） of the B-Ni2P/SBA-15/cord monolithic catalysts was first increased to 167 m2· g-1, and then decreased to 155 m2· g-1 with the increase of boron contents. The catalytic activity also showed the similar trend with the increase of boron contents. The 1.75% （by mass） B-Ni2P/SBA-15/cord monolithic catalysts exhibited the highest DBT conversion of 98.4% at 380 ℃. The cordierite-based monolithic catalysts showed better low temperature sensitivity for HDS of DBT in comparison with the particle catalysts. Moreover, two HDS routes, direct desulfurization （DDS） and hydrogenation （HYD）, proceeded independently over B-Ni2P/SBA-15/cord monolithic catalysts and the main pathway was DDS.

Effect of graphene on mechanical properties of cement mortars

Functionalized graphene nano-sheets(FGN) of 0.01%-0.05%(mass fraction) were added to produce FGN-cement composites in the form of mortars. Flow properties, mechanical properties and microstructure of the cementitious material were then investigated. The results indicate that the addition of FGN decreases the fluidity slightly and improves mechanical properties of cement-based composites significantly. The highest strength is obtained with FGN content of 0.02% where the flexural strength and compressive strength at 28 days are 12.917 MPa and 52.42 MPa, respectively. Besides, scanning electron micrographs show that FGN can regulate formation of massive compact cross-linking structures and thermo gravimetric analysis indicates that FGN can accelerate the hydration reaction to increase the function of the composite effectively.

Rheology of Cement Mortars with Crushed Fine Aggregates of Different Lithological Types

Crushed fine aggregates are widely used for full or partial replacement of natural sands in concretes. The crushed sands present different characteristics from the natural sand, especially if taking into account the content of microfine particle, the distribution of particle sizes, the shape features, besides the different lithological origin. From the rheological point of view, the crushed sands frequently provide mixtures with high yield stress, high viscosity, high cohesion and internal friction, which hinders its use in concrete. This study is focused on the evaluation of the rheological behavior of concrete mortar phase when using different lithological types of crushed sand in total replacement of natural sand. The lithological types surveyed were granite, calcitic limestone, dolomite limestone and mica schist. Each of these sand types was studied in two ways： in natura and with adjusted grading curve. The results show the best performance of calcitic limestone providing lower viscosities and lower yield stress in mortars.

Assessing the Impact of Aggregate Type on Air Lime Mortar Properties Using Scanning Electron Microscopy

In recent years, the need for low energy materials has become increasingly important. With government targets aiming to reduce carbon emissions by 80% by 2050, and the construction industry being responsible for 50% of the UK＇s carbon emissions, it is of vital importance that positive changes are made. One of these changes is to reduce the carbon footprint of the materials used in construction. Lime mortar has been used for centuries, but since the arrival of cement, its use in modern construction has diminished, in part due to having lower compressive strengths than cement mortar. Air lime mortar, in particular, can be categorised as low energy due to the reabsorption of a significant amount of COE during the setting process： carbonation. The current study focuses on the impact of different types of aggregate （limestone and silicate） on air lime mortar strength. Previous research has found that higher strengths can be achieved with the use of limestone aggregate, but little is known about the reasons why. The research presented here looks at a microstructural analysis through use of SEM （scanning electron microscopy） in order to determine reasons behind the strength differences. At early stages of curing, there are clear differences at the interface of binder and aggregate.

Behaviour of Rendering Mortar for Rehabilitation of Buildings Subjected to Rising Damp

This paper presents an experimental study on the behaviour of rendering mortars used to rehabilitate buildings subjected to rising damp and consequently affected by efflorescence. This study was initiated by the characterization, ＂in situ＂ and in laboratory, of rendering mortar used as walls coating of an old building affected by efflorescence. Temperature, superficial humidity, mortar water content and salts content were used as characterization tests. Taking into account the reconstitution of old building rendering mortar composition, four different proportions were proposed to simulate different mortars skeletons and porosities. The mortars binders were composed by cement and three additions, such as hydrated lime, artificial hydraulic lime and quicklime paste. The results of capillary water absorption, soluble salts content and permeability test on masonry panels allowed analyzing the performance of mortars compared to the susceptibility of water rise and formation of salts. From this analysis, it was possible to draw some practical recommendations for design coating repair mortar in buildings subject to the problem of rising damp.

Molecule bridged graphene/Ag for highly conductive ink

Printing is a method of additive manufacturing that can reduce material costs and environmental contamination during the fabrication process.Ag ink is commonly used in printed electronics,such as interconnects,inductors,and antennas.However,the high cost of noble Ag restricts its massive applications.To reduce the cost of the state-of-the-art Ag ink and realize large-scale manufacturing,we develop a molecule-bridged graphene/Ag(MB-G/A)composite to produce highly conductive and cost-effective paperbased electronics.Graphene can be used to substitute part of Ag nanoparticles to reduce costs,form a conducive percolation network,and retain a reasonable level of conductivity.We adopt cysteamine as a molecular linker,because it anchors on the surface of graphene via the diazonium reaction.Additionally,the thiol functional group on the other end of cysteamine can bond to a Ag atom,forming a molecular bridge between graphene and Ag and promoting electron transport between Ag and graphene.As a result,the maximum conductivity of MB-G/A inks can reach 2.0×10^(5)S m^(−1),enabling their successful application in various printable electronics.In addition,the optimum MB-G/A ink costs less than half as much as pure Ag inks,showing the great potential of MB-G/A ink in commercial electronic devices.
