AbstractPaper has been the most significant carrier of written information for many centuries. To prolong the life expectancy of papers, the polyurethane based on nanosilica was used to strengthen the paper fibers in this work. The relation between the mass concentration of polyurethane based on nanosilica and the specific properties of papers (e. g., folding endurance, tensile strength, tearing strength, whiteness and glossiness) were investigated. In addition, the effect of polyurethane based on nanosilica on the acid/alkali resistance and ageing resistance were studied. The results showed that polyurethane based on nanosilica could significantly improve the mechanical properties and ageing resistance of papers.

Steel corrosion is one of the main problems of concrete structure durability. Compared with the steel, GFRP rebar has the advantages of high strength, low density and good corrosion resistance. Therefore, GFRP becomes a good choice to replace steel bar in concrete structure. Since GFRP material is susceptible to the alkaline conditions, it is necessary to clarify the mechanical properties and corrosion mechanism of GFRP rebar in such an alkaline environment of interior concrete. In this study, the artificial accelerated corrosion tests of two kinds of GFRP rebar (epoxy and unsaturated polyester resin matrix) were conducted at 60 °C in alkaline solution up to 90 days. Then the tensile strength tests of GFRP rebar were carried out. The solution PH values, the tensile strength and mass loss of GFRP rebar were measured. The testing results show that the mass of GFRP rebar had rarely changed, but the tensile strength reduced about 30% after 90-day immersion test in alkaline solution. During the test, the PH value of the alkaline solution decreased from 13.62 to around 12.85, which indicated that the hydroxyl ions of the alkaline solution had been consumed. The ester bonds in resin matrix may hydrolyze in alkaline solution and the bonding interface between fiber and resin can be damaged progressively. It can cause the performance degradation of GFRP rebar. In addition, the relationship between the loss of tensile strength and the reduction of PH can be determined. That means the durability of GFRP rebar in concrete can be enhanced by controlling or limiting the alkalinity when producing concrete. Finally, the GFRP rebar of epoxy resin matrix shows higher retention values of tensile strength and better alkali resistance than those of UPR matrix rebar after 90d immersion in the alkaline solution. The obtained results in this paper can provide application reference of GFRP materials in civil engineering.

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) architectural membrane material is a species of composite textile material. In comparison with other architectural membrane materials such as PTFE or ETFE, PVC membrane material is much cheaper, softer and easier construction feasibility. In this paper, g-methacryloxypropyl trimethoxy silane (KH-570), chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) and pellet binder (PB) were added into PVC paste, respectively. The mechanical properties (tensile strength, peel strength and tearing strength) of the coated fabric were investigated. It was found that the mechanical characteristics of PVC coated fabric were evidently affected by the addition of KH-570 in the coating paste. Both tensile strength and peel strength of PVC coated fabric were improved by the addition of KH-570. The addition of CPE into the coating paste had little effect on the mechanical properties of the coated fabric. The mechanical properties of the coated fabric were greatly improved by blending with PB, the peel strength enhanced 157% and the tensile strength increased 150N/50mm, but the tearing strength was largely reduced.

Konjac Glucomannan (KGM) was modified by maleic anhydride (MA). The influences of processing parameters on the mechanical properties of KGM films were investigated through orthogonal experiments. The results showed that the effects of pH, temperature and time of KGM swelling on tensile strength and folding endurance of modified KGM membranes were insignificant (F<F0.05). The quantity of MA affected slightly on the tensile strength (F<F0.05), but its effect on the folding endurance was significant (F>F0.01). Folding endurance and tensile strength of KGM membranes could be improved by proper addition of MA. The optimum conditions of KGM modification were that the mixture of KGM and MA was swelling at pH 4.0 and 60°C for 2 h, and then cast on a flat and dried at 50°C to give modified KGM membranes.

Phenyl silicone resin reinforced addition type liquid phenyl silicone rubber was prepared by vulcanization of vinyl end-capped polymethylphenylsiloxane (PVPS), phenyl MT resins and hydrogen end-capped polydiphenylsiloxane (PHPS) under Pt catalysis at 150°C for 4h. The effects of the proportion and the vinyl content of phenyl MT resins on the mechanical properties of cured products were investigated. The thermal stability was explored by thermogravimetric analysis. The changes of mechanical properties were also studied before and after irradiation. Phenyl silicone rubber with good performance was obtained when the phenyl MT resin content was 50~60 wt% and the vinyl content was at 5.5~6.6 wt%. The onset temperature of thermal degradation and the center temperature of thermal degradation were 443.7°C and 502°C, respectively. When the radiation dose increased from 0 to 300 KGy, the tensile strength decreased from 4.1MPa to 2.3MPa and the tearing strength decreased from 8.9MPa to 5.1MPa. When the radiation dose continues to increased from 300 to 900 KGy, the tensile strength increased from 2.3MPa to 6.4MPa and the tearing strength increased from 5.1MPa to 6.5MPa. During the process of radiation, the elongation at break had been kept down from 96% to 52%, and the hardness increased from 80A to 90A.

Geotextile has been commonly used in civil and geotechnical engineering applications, and the majority of geotextiles is made of nonwoven fabrics. Therefore, this study combines crimped polyester (PET) fibers, recycled Kevlar unidirectional selvage fibers, and low-melting-point PET (LPET) fibers to form PET/Kevlar/LPET nonwoven geotextiles, and then examines how various neelde-punch depths influence mechanical properties of the resulting nonwoven geotextiles. The tensile strength, tearing strength, bursting strength, and static puncture resistance of the nonwoven fabrics increase as a result of an increase of 0.3 cm to 0.5 cm in needle-punch depth. However, an increase of 0.5 cm to 0.7 cm causes a slight decrease in all aforementioned properties.

AbstractDry-process hardboard represents a favorable option for recycling old newspaper fibers. However, dry-process boards tend to be less dimensionally stable than boards processed by other methods. Our objective was to determine the effects of various wood fiber (WF) to old newspaper (ONP) ratios (100:0, 50:50, and 0:100 WF/ONP) on the mechanical strength and water resistance of dry-process hardboards made from these fibers. Untreated and acetylated hardboards were made with 3 or 7 percent resin and 0.5 percent wax. Boards were tested for static bending and tensile strength properties and water resistance. As expected, increasing the resin level from 3 to 7 percent generally improved all measured properties. Acetylation substantially improved the water resistance of all boards; increasing the amount of ONP caused a corresponding deterioration in both mechanical properties and water resistance.

Cotton fiber is a type of natural fibers. Using natural fibers to fabricate textile can not only decrease the consumption of synthetic fibers, but also reduce the environmental pollution. This study aims to fabricate elastic knitted fabrics and evaluate their properties. Polyester (PET) filaments and rubber threads serve as the warp while cotton yarn serves as the weft for warp knitting. A crochet machine makes the warp and weft into warp knits with desirable stretchability, during which the amount (single/double) and the ply number (1-, 2-, and 3-ply) of the weft are further varied. The resulting warp knits are evaluated for water absorption, air permeability, and mechanical properties. As demonstrated by the experimental results, the warp knits with single 1-ply weft (S1) yield an optimal air permeability of 224.6 cm3/cm2/s and stiffness along the warp direction of 4.74cm. The warp knits with single 2-ply weft (S2) display an optimal tearing strength of 86N while the warp knits with double 3-ply weft (D3/3) has an optimal tensile strength of 708N.
