Optimization of the proportion and the properties of stabilized macadam and sand mixes (MSM) with introduction of the ANT additive was carried out by means of the mathematical designing of the experiment. This method allows a rather full and comprehensive assessment of the effect of the components on the properties of stabilized macadam and sand mixes (MSM), obtaining of the mathematical model of the process in graphic form, and obtaining of the theoretical model of assessment and prediction of the physical-mechanical and performance properties of the materials under study.At the first stage of the research percentages of a mineral binder, water and an additive were selected and the effect of the variability factor of these components on the mix’s physical-mechanical properties was studied. The following factors were selected as variates: X1 standing for quantity of water, %; X2 standing for the content of sulfate-resistant portland cement grade 500, %; X3 standing for the content of the ANT ionic stabilizer being essentially a water-soluble active organo-mineral additive containing amphoteric surfactants and microelements, %. The experimental design and the levels of the factors’ variability were specified on the basis of the test results.The principal factor exerting influence on the strength property of stabilized macadam and sand mixes is application of the ANT X3 ionic stabilizer.

This paper presents an experimental research on the performance of high-strength selfcompacting concrete (SCC) with different mineral additives after exposure to high temperatures of up to 600°C. For this purpose, four SCC mixtures were studied: one reference and three mixtures where the Portland cement was replaced with mineral additive (fly ash, metakaolin and limestone) in certain proportions. After natural cooling in the furnace, compressive strength and static modulus of elasticity were determined and compared to results obtained from other studies and those provided in EN 1992-1-2 and EN 1994-1-2 for normal-vibrated concrete. Additionally, acoustic emission (AE) parameters during compression test of heated and unheated specimens were also obtained which showed good non-destructive tool for identifying exposure temperature of the concrete needed for the assessment of concrete structures after fire.

The object of the study is the effect of the introduction of a mineral additive (Ssp = 900 m2/kg) of the fraction (0.315–5 m) of the screening out of crushing concrete scrap into Portland cement for the production of various building products and structures. A fraction of concrete scrap of 0.315–5 mm is used in the work, since the X-ray phase analysis of various fractions of concrete scrap shows that these fractions have a rational content of non-hydrated particles of C3S and C2S. It is proved that the use of finely ground concrete scrap (Ssp = 900 m2/kg) as a mineral additive in Portland cement increaseINFLUENCE OF FINE-DISPERSED ADDITIVE FROM CONCRETE SCRAP ON STRUCTURE FORMATION OF PORTLANDCEMENT s the physical and mechanical properties of concrete. Comparative physical and mechanical indicators of the hardening of composite binders indicate that the most stable results with a uniform increase in strength is a composition with 5 % mineral additive, with an increase in strength from 2 to 7 days by 36 % and from 7 to 28 days by 46 %. It is found that the most rational are the compositions with 5 % and 10 % mineral additives providing an increase in the strength of the samples by 16% compared to the control composition. Due to the high dispersion, the mineral additive from concrete scrap acts as additional crystallization centers during the hydration of Portland cement, which leads to the creation of a skeleton coral-like structure, which additionally overgrows with submicroscopic crystals. With a specific surface area of 900 m2/kg, the best conditions are created for the formation of the primary frame and its further overgrowth with various crystalline calcium hydrates, which provide optimal density and strength.

This research is devoted to modification of physical and mechanical properties and structure of a binder based on natural anhydrite. A sedimentary rock siltstone was added into the composition as a mineral ultrafine additive. The presence of aluminosilicate minerals proves that finely ground siltstone can be used as a mineral additive in the composition of the anhydrite binder, accelerating crystallization of gypsum new formations and densifying the structure of gypsum stone. For the first time, the effectiveness of using sodium and ammonium phosphates as hardening activators of an anhydrite binder was shown. Siltstone, added to the composition in the amount from 0 to 5%, lead to up to 40% increase in strength, which is due to the action of siltstone particles as “crystallization centers” and formation of crystalline hydrates of calcium sulfate dihydrate on their surface. Combined action of calcined siltstone and lime leads to a 45% increase in strength due to the additional compaction by new hydration products formed in the course of metakaolin and lime interaction. Microstructural analysis showed that samples with calcined siltstone and lime have a more dense and uniform structure with a lower porosity, compared to those with only natural siltstone.

The mechanical properties of three titanium alloys (Ti-7Mo-3Al, Ti-7Mo- 3Cu and Ti-7Mo-3Ta) were evaluated as function of: 1) Solutionizing in the beta field and aging, 2) Thermal Mechanical Processing in the beta field and aging, 3) Solutionizing in the alpha + beta field and aging. The samples were isothermally aged in the temperature range 300° to 700*C for 4 to 24 hours, followed by a water quench. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray method were used to identify the phase formed. All three alloys solutionized at 1050°C (beta field) transformed to martensitic alpha (alpha prime) upon being water quenched. Despite this heavily strained alpha prime, which is characterized by microtwins the tensile strength of the as-quenched alloys is relatively low and the elongation is as high as 30%.

For fuel savings as well as energy and resource requirement, high strength low alloy steels (HSLA) are of particular interest to automobile industry because of the potential weight reduction which can be achieved by using thinner section of these steels to carry the same load and thus to improve the fuel mileage. Dual phase treatment has been utilized to obtain superior strength and ductility combinations compared to the HSLA of identical composition. Recently, cooling rate following heat treatment was found to be important to the tensile properties of the dual phase steels. In this paper, we report the results of the investigation of cooling rate on the microstructures and mechanical properties of several vanadium HSLA steels.The steels with composition (in weight percent) listed below were supplied by China Steel Corporation: 1. low V steel (0.11C, 0.65Si, 1.63Mn, 0.015P, 0.008S, 0.084Aℓ, 0.004V), 2. 0.059V steel (0.13C, 0.62S1, 1.59Mn, 0.012P, 0.008S, 0.065Aℓ, 0.059V), 3. 0.10V steel (0.11C, 0.58Si, 1.58Mn, 0.017P, 0.008S, 0.068Aℓ, 0.10V).

Grain boundaries have long held a special significance to ceramicists. In part, this has been because it has been impossible until now to actually observe the boundaries themselves. Just as important, however, is the fact that the grain boundaries and their environs have a determing influence on both the mechanisms by which powder compaction occurs during fabrication, and on the overall mechanical properties of the material. One area where the grain boundary plays a particularly important role is in the high temperature strength of hot-pressed ceramics. This is a subject of current interest as extensive efforts are being made to develop ceramics, such as silicon nitride alloys, for high temperature structural applications. In this presentation we describe how the techniques of lattice fringe imaging have made it possible to study the grain boundaries in a number of refractory ceramics, and illustrate some of the findings.

Better Than

The aromatic polyamides form a class of fibers having mechanical properties which are much better than those of aliphatic polyamides. Currently, the accepted morphology of these fibers as proposed by M.G. Dobb, et al. is a radial arrangement of pleated sheets, with the plane of the pleats parallel to the axis of the fiber. We have recently obtained evidence which supports a different morphology of this type of fiber, using ultramicrotomy and ion-thinning techniques to prepare specimens for transmission and scanning electron microscopy.
