Aiming at the problem of the fatigue life prediction of rubber under the influence of temperature, the effects of thermal ageing and fatigue damage on the fatigue life of rubber under the influence of temperature are analysed and a fatigue life prediction model is established by selecting strain energy as a fatigue damage parameter based on the uniaxial tensile data of dumbbell rubber specimens at different temperatures. Firstly, the strain energy of rubber specimens at different temperatures is obtained by the Yeoh model, and the relationship between it and rubber fatigue life at different temperatures is fitted by the least-square method. Secondly, the function formula of temperature and model parameters is obtained by the least-square polynomial fitting. Finally, another group of rubber specimens is tested at different temperatures and the fatigue characteristics are predicted by using the proposed prediction model under the influence of temperature, and the results are compared with the measured results. The results show that the predicted value of the model is consistent with the measured value and the average relative error is less than 22.26%, which indicates that the model can predict the fatigue life of this kind of rubber specimen at different temperatures. What's more, the model proposed in this study has a high practical value in engineering practice of rubber fatigue life prediction at different temperatures.

In the present study, the influence of the temperature–time mode of crystallization (TTC) on the electrophysical properties of polymer-based PP + Fe3O4 nanocomposite materials was investigated. Also, the effect of the temperature-time mode of crystallization of nanocomposites on the negative magnetoresistance (NMR) effect that observed in this material was investigated. It was found that dielectric permittivity of polymer nanocomposites rises with increasing of cooling rate. The cooling rate of nanocomposites after hot-pressing also affects the NMR effect of these materials. The conductivity of the material under the influence of magnetic field improves with increasing of its cooling rate, which leads to increasing of NMR effect.

A kind of SBS modified emulsified asphalt for highly cold area was studied by experiments. The research includes two aspects: the first is preparation of SBS modified asphalt. The influence of temperature, time, shear rate and development time on asphalt modification are determined, so as to determine the process of SBS modified asphalt. On this basis, the blending ratio of SBS modified emulsified asphalt was determined by experiments. The results show that the emulsified asphalt produced by the equipment is of good quality and good ductility.4%SBS latex content can make emulsified asphalt meet the standard requirements, but only 6%SBS latex content can obtain better road performance. Although the softening point of SBS modified emulsified asphalt prepared by this method is still low, it can meet the requirements of high cold area.

The precipitation of tannin complex of germanium from sulfuric solutions obtained after dross leaching was investigated. The tested solutions contained mainly zinc, germanium, indium, and tin. The influence of temperature, time, amount of added tannic acid and its purity was determined. The application of pure tannic acid allowed the precipitation of >99% of germanium and decreased its concentration in a solution <0.015 g/dm3. It required ca. 11–13 g of pure tannic acid per each 1 g of dissolved germanium. The preferred process conditions for Ge precipitation using powder tannic acid were 90 °C, 90 min, whereas for 20% aq. solution—5 min. It was found that 40% to 50% of tin coprecipitated at these conditions. Therefore, a detinning operation using hydrogen peroxide was proposed. It allowed the removal of >99% Sn and reduced its concentration in the solution below 0.025 g/dm3.

Fatigue life assessment of critical bridge members using online monitoring data has been investigated in recent years. To make a quick and efficient evaluation, a representative block of strain cycles is usually defined. However, such block sometimes fails to cover the change in fatigue damage by temperature fluctuation and traffic growth, which is important to the life prediction of the welds in a long-span suspension bridge. To find the influence of temperature and traffic volume on the fatigue damage, an equivalent vehicle load method is dedicated through finite element analysis, and the statistical disposition of traffic flow has been conducted, using data from the Runyang Bridge. The influence of traffic growth can be estimated and eliminated from the total damage so that the temperature effect on the fatigue damage is finally obtained. It is found that temperature has a linear effect on the fatigue damage. According to the fitted relationship between fatigue damage, temperature and the traffic flow, a more objective fatigue assessment is undertaken, based on the rain-flow counting method and the Palgren-Miner rule.

A wet-rubbing fastness improver was prepared by two steps: (1) synthesis of waterborne polyurethane (WPU) through the reaction of diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), polyethylene glycol (PEG), dimethylol propionic acid (DMPA), and diethylenetriamine; (2) modification of WPU by reaction with epichlorohydrin. Influence of temperature, time, concentration and ratio of monomers on the preparation was studied. The optimal process for WPU synthesis is as follows: temperature 100°C, time 3h, diethylenetriamine 1.5 % and DMPA7% (on weight of monomers). The modification reaction can be proceeded at temperature 100°C for 2h with epichlorohydrin 2.7 %.
