Porous haydite used as waste filter medium was prepared by dreging lake sludge to help solve the treatment problem of sludge and realize its reclamation. Several calcination regimes were considered and their effects on the pore structure and the properties such as the strength, the density, the filtering ability and the phosphate absorption ability of the haydite were investigated. For the mixture of 60% lake sludge and 40% fly ash in this experiment, the calcination regime with a pre-calcination period at about 600 ℃, a temperature keeping period at 1 200 ℃ and a moderate cooling rate are recommended to prepare haydite with reasonable pore structure and good performances for its usage as the waste water filter media.
Micro computed tomography (Micro-CT) was applied to obtain three-dimensional images of the microstructure of cement paste (water-to-cement mass ratio of 0.5) at different ages. By using the Amira software, component phases of the cement paste such as pores, hydration products, and unhydrated clinker particles were segmented from each other based on their 3D image grey levels; their relative contents were also calculated with the software, and the data are 61.2%, 0% and 38.8% at the beginning of hydration and 11.8%, 78.5% and 9.7% at 28 d age, respectively. The hydration degree of cement paste at different ages was compared with the experimental data acquired by loss on ignition (LOI) tests. The results show that the calculated and measured data reasonably agree with each other, which indicates that micro-CT is a useful and reliable approach to characterize the micro structure evolution of hydrating cement paste.
Electromagnetic(EM) wave absorbing cement-based composite has promising applications in protecting civil and military buildings from electromagnetic interferences. A new idea of preparing EM wave absorbing cement-based composite is proposed by using ceramsite containing iron oxide as EM wave absorbing functional aggregate. The ceramsite was synthesized by adding 10 wt% Fe_3O_4 into clay and sintering at 1 200 ℃, which shows obvious dielectric and magnetic loss properties for electromagnetic wave. The maximum reflection loss(RL) of the concrete specimens prepared with the ceramsite is between-10.2--10.7 dB(corresponding to absorption greater than 90% EM energy) in the bandwidth of 8-18 GHz. In addition, the compressive strength at 28 days age of the concrete is 46 MPa, showing the potentiality of being used as structural components in buildings.
探讨了不同石墨掺量下钢渣导电沥青混凝土(conductive asphalt concrete using steel slag as aggregate,CACS)的电阻稳定性,研究了温度、氯盐溶液、载荷变化对钢渣导电沥青混凝土电阻率的影响.试验表明,钢渣作为集料复掺石墨制备出的钢渣导电沥青混凝土,电阻随时间变化小,在氯盐溶液中其电阻稳定性也良好.钢渣导电沥青混凝土的电阻呈现明显的正温度系数效应(positive temperature coefficient,PTC),电阻率随着温度的升高而逐渐增加,具有良好的温敏性;电阻率随着压力的增大而减小,卸载后电阻率有所增加,但不能完全恢复到原来的电阻率.
