Failure mechanism of Mesozoic soft rock roadway in Shajihai coal mine and its surrounding rock control

In view of the buckling failure caused by large deformation of Mesozoic soft rock roadway in Shajihai mining area, such as serious roof fall, rib spalling, floor heave, etc., based on the detail site investigation,theoretical analysis, mineral composition test, microstructure test, water-physical property test and field experiments were carried out. And we revealed the compound failure mechanism of Mesozoic soft rock roadway in Shajihai mining area, namely the molecule expansion-shear slip of weak structural plane-construction disturbance. On this basis, the coupling support technology whose core is constant resistance with large deformation bolt was proposed. The feature of this supporting technology is that a new type of structural composite material was used, which makes the supporting system not only has the ideal deformation characteristics, but also has high supporting resistance. Thus the fully release of plastic energy within surrounding rock and reasonable control of the thickness of the plastic ring were realized. Then the differential deformation between the surrounding rock and support was eliminated by the secondary coupling support of bolt–mesh–cable, and the bolt with high strength was applied in the base angle to control floor. Eventually the collaborative bearing system of surrounding rock–support was formed. Through field tests the validity and rationality of support was also verified.

Epoxidation Functionalized Isobutylene Isoprene Rubber toward Green-curing Pathway and High-performance Composites

Epoxidation of the carbon-carbon double bonds on unsaturated rubber macromolecules can produce novel modified rubber species with special properties,and construct eco-friendly crosslinking pathway via the reaction of epoxide groups to solve the problems brought by conventional sulfur vulcanization system.In this contribution,a novel modified product of isobutylene isoprene rubber(IIR),epoxyfunctionalized IIR(EIIR)was successfully prepared by in situ epoxidation technique for the first time,and the crosslinking of EIIR was achieved by the reaction of oxirane groups with maleic anhydride(MAH)without additional additives.The reaction conditions for preparing EIIR were optimized through systematic research on the epoxidation process.Under optimal condition,the degree of epoxidation of the rubber reached around 99%without side reactions.The obtained EIIR/carbon black composites cured by MAH had excellent mechanical properties comparable to those of IIR composites.More importantly,compared with IIR composites,the air-tightness of the EIIR composites was improved by about 50%,and the flexural fatigue life of first-level cracks and sixth-level cracks was increased by several times.The significant improvement of these properties is of great significance for the application safety and energy saving of IIR materials.
