Deterioration Effect

Cemented tailing backfill (CTB) in underground mine inevitably experiences seepage field, which complicates its mechanical behavior. In this study, the mechanical properties and microstructure characteristics of CTB under different seepage water pressures (SWPs) were investigated. The results show that, with the increase in SWP, the mechanical properties of CTB decrease, but the decreasing trend reduces gradually. Higher SWP leads the microstructure of CTB looser and more porous, and the largest proportion of pores initiated and propagated by SWP is micropores, which means the damage in CTB under seepage is mostly caused by micropores. Besides, the mechanical properties of CTB under seepage decrease exponentially with the increase in porosity and present linearly inverse proportional relation to the pore area fractal dimension. Results above indicate that SWP has a significant deterioration effect on the mechanical properties and microstructure of CTB. The research could not only extend the knowledge of mechanical properties and microstructure characteristics of CTB under seepage but also provide a theoretical reference for mechanical index determination and stability analysis of CTB in water-rich underground mines.

In our study, a new kind of foam composite was prepared by melt blending with PVC as the matrix and carbon black (CB) as the filler, the standard-spline was made in the dumbbell system prototype. Tensile strength and elongation at break were measured at 25°C。When the CB was added greater than 2.0%, with the increase of CB added, the determination of sample mechanical index began to decline, when the CB content was greater than 9%, tensile strength and elongation at break of the composites remained basically unchanged.

Microstructure Characteristics

In this overview, the results published to date concerning the development, processing, microstructure characteristics, and properties of silicon nitride/carbon nanotube (Si3N4 + CNTs) composites are summarized. The influence of the different processing routes on the microstructure development of the Si3N4 + CNTs is discussed. The effects of the CNTs addition on the mechanical properties—hardness, bending strength and fracture toughness—and tribological characteristics—wear rate and coefficient of friction—are summarized. The characteristic defects, fracture origins, toughening and damage mechanisms occurring during the testing are described. The influence of the CNTs’ addition on the thermal and functional properties of the composites is discussed as well. New trends in the development of these composites with significant potential for future applications are outlined.

AbstractRecent studies have showed that the microstructure and mechanical properties of A356 alloy can be significantly improved when ultrasonic cavitation and solidification processing is used. This is because during the fabrication of A356 castings, ultrasonic cavitation processing plays an important role in degassing and refining the as-cast microstructure. In the present study, A356 alloy and Al2O3/SiC nanoparticles are used as the matrix alloy and the reinforcements, respectively. Nanoparticles are injected into the molten alloy and dispersed by ultrasonic cavitation. Ultrasonic cavitation was also applied during solidification of these nanocomposites. The microstructure and nanoparticle distribution of the cast samples have been investigated in detail. The current experimental results indicated that ultrasonic cavitation during solidification will greatly improve the microstructure of the samples. Al2O3 and SiC nanoparticle reinforced nanocomposites have different nanoparticle distributions in the matrix.
