The reasons of C30 concrete bleeding in winter in Guangdong province were studied by collecting the concrete mix proportions of C30 concrete mixing plants in Guangdong, Fujian, Henan, Hunan, Chongqing and Shaanxi regions, the difference between the concrete mix proportions in Guangdong and other regions was investigated. Based on the representative concrete mix proportion in Guangdong province, the concrete bleeding water test was carried out, and the correlation between the amount of different cementing materials and the bleeding rate was investigated. The results showed that compared with other regions, the C30 concrete mix proportion in Guangdong has the lowest total cementitious material, which made it more prone to bleeding. The amount of slag powder and the total amount of cementitious materials have a high correlation with the bleeding rate. With the increase of the amount of slag powder and the total amount of cementitious materials, the bleeding rate decreases.

The degree of polymerization for dimethacrylate resin-based materials (BisGMA, TEGDMA, UDMA, HEMA) ranges from 55 to 75%. Literature data indicate that polymerization efficacy depends, among other factors, on the type of methacrylate resin comprising the material. The aim of this study was to evaluate the polymerization efficacy of four dental cement materials characterized by different polymerization mechanisms using FTIR analysis. In the present study, the FTIR method was adopted to analyze the degree of polymerization efficacy of four resin-based dental cement materials, two of which were self-cured and two were dual-cured cements. The IR spectral analysis was performed 24 h after the polymerization of the cementitious material. RelyX ARC cement exhibits the lowest polymerization efficacy (61.3%), while that of Variolink II (85.8%) and Maxcem Elite is the highest (90.1%). Although the efficacy of self-cured cements appears to be superior, the difference is not statistically significant (p = 0.280). Polymerization efficacy largely depends on the chemical structure of the material in terms of the presence of a particular methacrylate resin and less on the polymerization mechanism itself, i.e., whether it is a self-cured or dually cured dental cement. Thus, in clinical practice, cementitious materials with a higher proportion of TEGDMA compared with BisGMA are recommended.

Mineral admixtures are often mixed in concrete as an alternative cementitious material. The use of powder materials indirectly contributes to mitigation of environmental impact caused from Portland cement production which is a major source of CO2 emission. Furthermore, some of powder can improve properties of fresh and hardened concretes. A huge number of reports examining effects of admixture have been published in the world. However, it is not easy to compare the effect of admixture under a certain test condition. The present study aims to examining strength properties of concrete incorporating various admixtures. All admixtures tested herein were mixed in concrete as an alternative cementitious material, and the cement replacement ratios were in the range of 0.2 to 0.6. The tested powder materials are limestone powder, fly-ash, blast furnace slag powder, silica-fume, and inorganic admixture which was recently developed to increase chloride resistance. The focus of the study is to quantify the effect of these admixture on concrete strength. The paper reports compressive, split tensile and flexural strengths of these concretes, and discusses the effect of powder materials.

Aim & Goff model was used to predict the packing degree of cementitious materials including cement and silica fume. The mix proportions of reactive powder concrete (RPC) with different packing degree and calcium-silicon ratio of cementitious materials were designed and a strength test was carried out. The study results reveal that the flexural strength and compressive strength of RPC are related to the packing degree and calcium-silicon ratio of cementitious materials. For the mix proportion of RPC with the calcium- silicon molar ratio of 1.353 that is slightly less than the theoretical value of 1.42, where calcium hydroxide can react with silicon dioxide more fully, its strength of RPC approaches summit although its packing degree of cementitious material is not the largest one.

In view of the high cost of cement filling, the new cementitious materials are developed by using solid waste resources. Firstly, on the basis of material physicochemical analysis, the fly ash composite cementation ratio test and optimization test are carried out to determine the optimal ratio. Then, the filling body strength and pipeline transportation characteristics test are carried out to analyze they influence law. Finally, the genetic algorithm is used to optimize the slurry ratio. The results show that the strength of cemented backfill increases linearly with the increase of slurry concentration; The slump and bleeding rate of slurry decrease with the increase of slurry mass fraction, and increase with the decrease of binder sand ratio, the optimal proportion of fly ash (FA) based composite binder is w(FA): w(clinker): w (desulfurized gypsum (DG)): w (slag powder (SP)) =40:12:12:36; The optimum slurry ratio is 1:4 of binder/sand and 72% of concentration.

According to problems with the paste to aggregate ratio increases significantly and lack of recognition to cementitious materials effect of fly ash in current design method of fly ash concrete mix proportion, the paper introduces a new design method of fly ash concrete mix proportion that completely bases on the stable paste to aggregate ratio. The thoughts of parts of cement replaced by equal fly ash or by excessive fly ash in traditional method are not used in this method that starting from the stable paste to aggregate ratio directly, and using the connections of water-binder ratio and concrete strength to deduce the calculation formula of fly ash concrete mix proportion with method of absolute volume. The paper sums up the calculation steps of this new method, and combines with an example to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of this method.

Many researchers investigated various concrete made with the cementitious materials, hence the effects of various admixture are well known. Most researches focused on an alternative cementitious material, tested concrete properties by varying the cement-replacement ratio. The optimum cement-replacement ratio may be different by each admixture. The present study examined the strength properties of concrete incorporating various admixtures. The cementitious materials tested in this study were fly-ash, blast furnace slag powder, silica-fume, limestone powder, and an artificial admixture which has high resistance to chloride attack. First, fundamental properties of the concrete incorporating the admixture were summarized referring to previous durability tests. Second, the strength properties of concrete made with some cement-replacement ratios by the cementitious materials were examined. In addition, alternative cement efficiency factors (k) of each cementitious material were estimated.

Nickel slags can be produced through ferronickel preparation by the pyrometallurgical processing of laterite nickel ores; however, such techniques are underutilized at present, and serious environmental problems arise from the stockpiling of such nickel ores. In this study, a modification to the process of ferronickel preparation by the direct reduction of carbon bases in laterite nickel ores is proposed. The gangue from the ore is used as a raw material to prepare a cementitious material, with the main components of tricalcium silicate and tricalcium aluminate. By using FactSage software, thermodynamic calculations are performed to analyze the reduction of nickel and iron and the effect of reduction on the formation of tricalcium silicate and tricalcium aluminate. The feasibility of a coupled process to prepare ferronickel and cementitious materials by the direct reduction of laterite nickel ore and gangue calcination, respectively, is discussed under varying thermodynamic conditions. Different warming strategies are applied to experimentally verify the coupled reactions. The coupled preparation of ferronickel and cementitious materials with calcium silicate and calcium aluminate as the main phases in the same experimental process is realized.

It was possible to produce habituation to cold in a group of human subjects by immersing the left hand in cold water for [Formula: see text] minutes twice a day for 19 days. The right hand did not adapt. Another group of subjects was exposed similarly with the difference that an anxiety test (mental arithmetic test) was always given simultaneously with the cold-water test. In this second group the original blood pressure response, i.e. for the first day, was greater than in the first group because of the cumulative effects of the two tests. After 19 days definite evidence was obtained for adaptation to these two tests administered together. However, when these tests were given separately to the second group, no adaptation was evident; adaptation occurred only to both tests given simultaneously. These results indicate that no adaptation develops to cold per se if the subjects are distracted from cold discomfort. It was also found that adaptation of one hand to cold water not only failed to induce adaptation in the opposite hand but even reinforced responses of the unadapted hand. These findings suggest a participation of the central nervous system in adaptation to cold pain, and tend to minimize the importance of local peripheral changes.
