powder and steel slag powder are widely used as supplementary cementitious materials in modern concrete.However,for UHPC and self-compacting concrete,an extremely low water/binder(W/B)ratio is on one hand a key factor in achieving ultra-high strength and ultra-low porosity of the materials,on the other hand,also leads to the deterioration of the rheological properties of the fresh paste.Meanwhile,the existing researches focus on the influence of single limestone powder or steel slag powder on the mechanical properties or microstructure of cement-based materials.Little work on the influence of steel slag powder or limestone powder on the rheological properties of composite paste at an extremely low water/binder ratio has been investigated quantitatively.The mechanism of the effect of steel slag powder or limestone powder on the rheological properties of composite paste at extremely low water/binder ratios is still unclear.In this work,the effects of steel slag powder and limestone powder on the rheological properties of composite paste at different low water/binder ratios were analyzed via determining the flow diameter,setting time,marsh cone flow time,rheological parameters,and total organic carbon content.Methods A composite paste was prepared with P.I 42.5 ordinary Portland cement,steel slag powder,limestone powder,blast furnace slag and silica fume as raw materials in a certain proportion.To achieve the preparation of composite paste with extremely low water/binder ratios,a polycarboxylate superplasticizer with a water/reducing rate of 40%(Jiangsu Subot New Materials Co.,Ltd.,China)was used.The dosage of polycarboxylate superplasticizer for the composite paste with different water/binder ratios of 0.16 and 0.21 was 2%and 0.8%,respectively.Composite pastes with different proportions of steel slag powder or limestone powder at water/binder ratios of 0.16 and 0.21 were prepared.The flow diameter(i.e.,the larger the flow diameter,the better the fluidity),setting time(i.e.,the time when the fluidity is lost)and marsh cone flow time(i.e.,the shorter the flow time,the better the fluidity)were determined to analyze the fluidity of the composite pastes.the rheological properties of composite paste at a water/binder ratio of 0.16 for rheological properties tests were determined,and the rheological parameters were obtained by the H-B model.The adsorption performance of the polycarboxylate superplasticizer was analyzed by testing the TOC content.Results and discussion When the ratio of water/binder is 0.16,both limestone powder and steel slag powder initially increase the flow diameter of the composite paste.However,the fluidity of the composite paste decreases over time,and the reduction is more pronounced with steel slag powder.This is because the nucleation and hydration promotion effect of limestone powder can reduce the loss rate of flow diameter,while the rough particles of steel slag powder increase the internal friction force,resulting in a decrease in the flow diameter of composite paste.Adding limestone powder and steel slag powder both shortens the setting time and marsh cone flow time of the composite paste.However,the steel slag powder addition of 30%delays the final setting time due to its delaying effect.Also,limestone powder can enhance the thixotropy and reduce the yield stress and plastic viscosity,thereby improving the rheological properties.In contrast,steel slag powder can increase the yield stress and plastic viscosity,thereby weakening the rheological properties and thixotropy.Steel slag powder and limestone powder both can enhance the adsorption effect of polycarboxylate superplasticizer.Steel slag powder has a stronger adsorption effect.The composite paste containing limestone powder has a higher free water content.This is because the rough and porous surface of steel slag itself and the uneven particle shape lead to the physical adsorption of polycarboxylate superplasticizer molecules on the surface of steel slag particles,thereby reducing the effective content of the water reducer dispersion.Increasing the water/binder ratio to 0.21 results in a decrease in the flow diameter of the composite paste.Furthermore,the setting time and marsh cone flow time can prolong due to the reduction in the dosage of polycarboxylate superplasticizer.Conclusions The results showed that the fluidity loss rate of composite paste with limestone powder could be lower than that of composite paste with steel slag powder.Compared to steel slag powder,the addition of limestone powder reduced the setting time and marsh cone flow time of the composite paste.The addition of limestone powder could shorten the yield stress and plastic viscosity of the composite paste.Therefore,the composite paste with limestone powder had better rheological properties and stronger thixotropy rather than that with steel slag powder.The addition of limestone powder could improve the rheological properties of the composite paste.Compared to composite paste with limestone powder,a better adsorption effect of polycarboxylate superplasticizer on the surface of the composite binder with steel slag powder could be obtained.The free water content of the composite paste with limestone powder was still higher than that of the composite paste with steel slag powder.The fluidity and rheological properties of the composite paste with limestone powder could be better.The comprehensive analysis indicated that a positive effect of limestone powder on rheological properties of composite paste at an extremely low water/binder ratio could be more dominant than that of steel slag powder.展开更多

The research results indicate that a decrease in temperature, an increase in shear frequency and strain level, the introduction of polymer modifiers, and the aging effect of asphalt can significantly increase the nonlinearity of asphalt, manifested by the higher relative magnitude of the third harmonic and zero-strain nonlinear coefficient. For the two polymer modifiers selected in this study, the 4%polyurethane modifier exhibits a higher nonlinear lifting effect than the 4% styrene-butadiene-styrene(SBS). The impact of long-term aging on nonlinear viscoelasticity is observably greater than that of short-term aging. The zero-strain nonlinear coefficient estimated based on the average value method can accurately characterize the nonlinear viscoelasticity of asphalt, which can serve as an effective supplement to the relative magnitude of the third harmonic. All asphalts exhibit shear thinning behavior under the test temperature of 24℃, and the decrease in test temperature, the increase in shear rate and strain level, the introduction of modifiers, and the aging effect of asphalt all exacerbate the shear thinning behavior of asphalt. In addition, the fatigue failure process of asphalt materials is accompanied by an increasing degree of nonlinearity.展开更多

It is a challenge to achieve high accuracies for form and position on a device with low surface roughness. However, due to the unique nonlinear rheology, magnetorheological fluids with hard abrasives are widely applied in ultra-precision surface finishing. Compared with conventional mechanical finishing, magnetorheological finishing displays obviously advantages, such as high precision shape of machined surface, low surface roughness and subsurface damage, and easy control for finishing processes. However, finishing performance depends on various factors, e.g. volume fraction and distribution of magnetic particles, types of hard abrasives and additives, strength of magnetic field, finishing forms. Therefore, a comprehensive review on related works is essential to understand the state-of-the-art of magnetorheological finishing and beneficial to inspire researchers to develop lower cost, higher machining accuracy and efficient approaches and setups, which demonstrates a significant guidance for development of high-performance parts in fields of aerospace, navigation and clinical medicine etc. This review starts from the rheological property of magnetorheological fluids, summarizing dynamically nonlinear rheological properties and stable finishing approaches. Then, the effect of components in magnetorheological fluids is discussed on finishing performance, consisting of magnetic particles, carrier fluid, additives and abrasives. Reasonable configuration of magnetorheological fluids, and different magnetorheological finishing methods are presented for variously curved surfaces. In addition, the current finishing forms and future directions are also addressed in this review.展开更多

WPCs were prepared from wood fiber up to 60 wt.% and modified PP/PE was blended by extrusion. The rheological properties were studied by using dynamic measurement. According to the strain sweep test, the linear viscoelastic region of composites in the melt was determined. The result showed that the storage modulus was independent of the strain at low strain region （〈0.1%）. The frequency sweep resuits indicated that all composites exhibited shear thinning behavior, and both the storage modulus and complex viscosity of MAH modified composites were decreased comparing to those unmodified. Flexural properties and impact strength of the prepared WPCs were measured according to the relevant standard specifications. The flexural and impact strength of the manufactured composites significantly increased and reached a maximum when MAH dosage was 1.0 wt%, whereas the flexural modulus after an initial decreased, also increased with MAH dosage. The increase in mechanical properties indicated that the presence of anhydride groups enhanced the interracial adhesion between wood fiber and PP/PE blends.展开更多

By comparing with the creep rule of dry rock in the same location, the creep rule of deep saturated rock was analyzed. Based on the united rheological mechanical model, the rheological model of deep saturated rock was recognized, and the parameters of the model were determined. The results show that the creep curves are very smooth under low stress, but the phenomena of wave and catastrophe turn up under high stress, and the bearing capacity of rock is weakening over time. The rheological properties of saturated and dry rocks are very different under tlie condition of deep high stress, especially when unloading, degradation and damage of rock quality is more serious, and the effect of water cannot be neglected. The H--HIN--NJS model （Schofield-Scott-Blair model） was selected to represent the rheology rule of deep saturated rock, and the fitting curves of model agree well with the experiment data, so the selected model is reasonable.展开更多

Capillary rheometer was adopted to determine the rheological parameters and to analyze the rheological properties of the feedstocks at different milling time, powder loading and temperature. It is indicated through the results that the viscosity increases and the value of n decreases with the increase of milling time. The more the powder loading is, the higher the viscosity is. The empirical formula on the relationship between the viscosity and the powder loading is： ηr=η/ηb=A（1-Ф/Фmax）/^- m . The value m is calculated as 0.33. The flow activation energy Ea decreases with the increase of shear rate.展开更多

The results show that the apparent viscosity of pulp changed along with the beating degree, pulp consistency and shearing velocity. With the increasing of pulp consistency, the apparent viscosity of pulp increased gradually. Beating degree of pulp had an effect on microstructure of pulp. The apparent viscosity of pulp declined as beating degree of pulp increased, and the apparent viscosity of pulp fell along with the shearing velocity increasing. Based on the results, the rheological models are set up. The models showed that the fluid types of the low consistency pulp could be described as pseudoplastics fluids （non-Newtonian fluids）.展开更多

The steady viscosity measurements show that the zero shear viscosity enhancement can be almost 3 orders of magnitude as the concentration of SDS increases from 0 to 0.043%. The gel-like formation is observed as the concentration of SDS is greater than 0.016%. The oscillatory rheological measurements of CG solutions in the presence of SDS show that the crossover modulus is almost independent of the concentration of SDS whereas the apparent relaxation time increases swiftly upon increasing the concentration of SDS. The experimental results indicate that the strength rather than the number of the cross-links is greatly affected by SDS molecules. The mechanism concerning the effect of SDS upon the rheology of CG solutions can be coined by the two-stage model. Before the formation of cross-links at the critical concentration, the electrostatic interaction between SDS and cationic site of CG chains plays a key role and the SDS molecules bind to CG chains through the electrostatic interaction. After the formation of cross-links at the concentration greater than the critical concentration, the cooperative hydrophobic interaction become dominant and SDS molecules bind to the cross-links through the hydrophobic interaction. The theological behavior of aqueous solutions of CG in the presence of SDS is chiefly determined by the micelle-like cross-links between CG chains. In fact, the flow activation energy of CG solution, obtained from the temperature dependence of the apparent relaxation time, falls in the range of transferring a hydrophobic tail of SDS from the micelle to an aqueous environment.展开更多

This paper examines temperature effects on the rheological properties of two types of high-density water-based drilling fluids （fresh water-based and brine-based） under high temperature and high pressure （HTHP） with a Fann 50SL rheometer. On the basis of the water-based drilling fluid systems formulated in laboratory, this paper mainly describes the influences of different types and concentration of clay, the content of a colloid stabilizer named GHJ-1 and fluid density on the rheological parameters such as viscosity and shear stress. In addition, the effects of aging temperature and aging time of the drilling fluid on these parameters were also examined. Clay content and proportions for different densities of brine-based fluids were recommended to effectively regulate the rheological properties. Four theological models, the Bingham, power law, Casson and H-B models, were employed to fit the rheological parameters. It turns out that the H-B model was the best one to describe the rheological properties of the high-density drilling fluid under HTHP conditions and power law model produced the worst fit. In addition, a new mathematical model that describes the apparent viscosity as a function of temperature and pressure was established and has been applied on site.展开更多

文摘The generalized rheological tests on sandstone were conducted under both dynamic stress and seepage fields.The results demonstrate that the rheological strain of the specimen under increased stress conditions is greater than that under creep conditions,indicating that the dynamic stress field significantly influences the rheological behaviours of sandstone.Following the rheological tests,the number of small pores in the sandstone decreased,while the number of medium-sized pores increased,forming new seepage channels.The high initial rheological stress accelerated fracture compression and the closure of seepage channels,resulting in reduction in the permeability of sandstone.Based on the principles of generalized rheology and the experimental findings,a novel rock rheological constitutive model incorporating both the dynamic stress field and seepage properties has been developed.Numerical simulations of surrounding rock deformation in geotechnical engineering were carried out using a secondary development version of this model,which confirmed the applicability of the generalized rheological numerical simulation method.These results provide theoretical support for the long-term stability evaluation of engineering rock masses and for predicting the deformation of surrounding rock.

文摘Introduction The widespread use of cement in concrete leads to increased carbon emissions,so the demand for supplementary cementitious materials increases significantly.Limestone powder and steel slag powder are widely used as supplementary cementitious materials in modern concrete.However,for UHPC and self-compacting concrete,an extremely low water/binder(W/B)ratio is on one hand a key factor in achieving ultra-high strength and ultra-low porosity of the materials,on the other hand,also leads to the deterioration of the rheological properties of the fresh paste.Meanwhile,the existing researches focus on the influence of single limestone powder or steel slag powder on the mechanical properties or microstructure of cement-based materials.Little work on the influence of steel slag powder or limestone powder on the rheological properties of composite paste at an extremely low water/binder ratio has been investigated quantitatively.The mechanism of the effect of steel slag powder or limestone powder on the rheological properties of composite paste at extremely low water/binder ratios is still unclear.In this work,the effects of steel slag powder and limestone powder on the rheological properties of composite paste at different low water/binder ratios were analyzed via determining the flow diameter,setting time,marsh cone flow time,rheological parameters,and total organic carbon content.Methods A composite paste was prepared with P.I 42.5 ordinary Portland cement,steel slag powder,limestone powder,blast furnace slag and silica fume as raw materials in a certain proportion.To achieve the preparation of composite paste with extremely low water/binder ratios,a polycarboxylate superplasticizer with a water/reducing rate of 40%(Jiangsu Subot New Materials Co.,Ltd.,China)was used.The dosage of polycarboxylate superplasticizer for the composite paste with different water/binder ratios of 0.16 and 0.21 was 2%and 0.8%,respectively.Composite pastes with different proportions of steel slag powder or limestone powder at water/binder ratios of 0.16 and 0.21 were prepared.The flow diameter(i.e.,the larger the flow diameter,the better the fluidity),setting time(i.e.,the time when the fluidity is lost)and marsh cone flow time(i.e.,the shorter the flow time,the better the fluidity)were determined to analyze the fluidity of the composite pastes.the rheological properties of composite paste at a water/binder ratio of 0.16 for rheological properties tests were determined,and the rheological parameters were obtained by the H-B model.The adsorption performance of the polycarboxylate superplasticizer was analyzed by testing the TOC content.Results and discussion When the ratio of water/binder is 0.16,both limestone powder and steel slag powder initially increase the flow diameter of the composite paste.However,the fluidity of the composite paste decreases over time,and the reduction is more pronounced with steel slag powder.This is because the nucleation and hydration promotion effect of limestone powder can reduce the loss rate of flow diameter,while the rough particles of steel slag powder increase the internal friction force,resulting in a decrease in the flow diameter of composite paste.Adding limestone powder and steel slag powder both shortens the setting time and marsh cone flow time of the composite paste.However,the steel slag powder addition of 30%delays the final setting time due to its delaying effect.Also,limestone powder can enhance the thixotropy and reduce the yield stress and plastic viscosity,thereby improving the rheological properties.In contrast,steel slag powder can increase the yield stress and plastic viscosity,thereby weakening the rheological properties and thixotropy.Steel slag powder and limestone powder both can enhance the adsorption effect of polycarboxylate superplasticizer.Steel slag powder has a stronger adsorption effect.The composite paste containing limestone powder has a higher free water content.This is because the rough and porous surface of steel slag itself and the uneven particle shape lead to the physical adsorption of polycarboxylate superplasticizer molecules on the surface of steel slag particles,thereby reducing the effective content of the water reducer dispersion.Increasing the water/binder ratio to 0.21 results in a decrease in the flow diameter of the composite paste.Furthermore,the setting time and marsh cone flow time can prolong due to the reduction in the dosage of polycarboxylate superplasticizer.Conclusions The results showed that the fluidity loss rate of composite paste with limestone powder could be lower than that of composite paste with steel slag powder.Compared to steel slag powder,the addition of limestone powder reduced the setting time and marsh cone flow time of the composite paste.The addition of limestone powder could shorten the yield stress and plastic viscosity of the composite paste.Therefore,the composite paste with limestone powder had better rheological properties and stronger thixotropy rather than that with steel slag powder.The addition of limestone powder could improve the rheological properties of the composite paste.Compared to composite paste with limestone powder,a better adsorption effect of polycarboxylate superplasticizer on the surface of the composite binder with steel slag powder could be obtained.The free water content of the composite paste with limestone powder was still higher than that of the composite paste with steel slag powder.The fluidity and rheological properties of the composite paste with limestone powder could be better.The comprehensive analysis indicated that a positive effect of limestone powder on rheological properties of composite paste at an extremely low water/binder ratio could be more dominant than that of steel slag powder.

文摘The rheological properties of an innovative coal-based colloidal composite binder(3Co-Binder)prepared via alkaline–oxygen excitation and mechanochemical synthesis are revealed.Derived from low-rank coal,3Co–Binder is applied in iron ore pelletization as a replacement for traditional bentonite,with the aim of improving the iron grades of the pellets.Cryoscanning electron microscopy revealed that 3Co-Binder exhibits a densely populated,porous network structure.It was determined to be a pseudo-plastic fluid with yield stress and shear-thinning characteristics.The stability of 3Co-Binder was influenced by the humic acid extraction rate,temperature,and static placing time.An extraction rate of humic acids above 96%was found to prevent sedimentation of 3Co-Binder,while lower temperatures and prolonged static placing time increased its apparent viscosity.A storage duration of less than 2 weeks and a temperature range of 25–35℃ were found to be optimal for maintaining the stability of 3Co-Binder.The viscous flow activation energy of 3Co-Binder remained stable at approximately 60 kJ mol^(-1) as the shear rate increased from 0.5 to 5 s^(-1).However,at higher shear rates,up to 100 s^(-1),the viscous flow activation energy decreased to 46.48 kJ mol^(–1).To ensure stability and dispersibility during storage,the rheological parameters of 3Co-Binder must meet the following criteria:yield stress below 10 Pa,consistency coefficient below 1.5 Pa s,non-Newtonian index below 1,and apparent viscosity below 10,000 mPa s at a shear rate of 1 s^(–1).

文摘Millets,nutrient-rich grains packed with complex carbohydrates,dietary fiber,essential proteins,lipids,and antioxidant phytochemicals,are gaining recognition as valuable dietary components.Various processing techniques,including roasting,extrusion,germination,and hydrothermal treatment,have been employed to enhance nutritional bioavailability and consumer appeal.These processing,which involves the application of heat and moisture,induces specific transformations in millet components.Starch undergoes gelatinization,a process in which its crystalline structure is disrupted,leading to increased digestibility and viscosity.Proteins undergo denaturation,altering their structure and potentially improving their digestibility and functionality.Lipids may also undergo modifications,impacting their stability and interactions with other food components.These changes facilitate the release of bioactive compounds such as phenolics,flavonoids,and tannins.These processes effectively reduce anti-nutritional factors,further boosting nutrient availability.This review provides a comprehensive analysis of various hydrothermal methods,including steaming and heat-moisture treatment,and critically evaluates their impact on the physicochemical properties,nutritional profile,and potential health benefits of millet.Steaming,a gentler method involves cooking millet in a steamer basket above boiling water,preserving its delicate texture and nutty flavor while still promoting starch gelatinization and nutrient retention.Heat-moisture treatment,a more specialized technique,involves exposing millet to elevated temperatures and controlled moisture levels,inducing specific changes in starch properties without causing complete gelatinization.This review examines how hydrothermal methods affect the nutritional and functional properties of millet to inspire the development of innovative,nutritious millet-based food products.

文摘During the production of natural gas hydrates,micron-sized sand particles coexist with hydrate within the transportation pipeline,posing a significant threat to the safety of pipeline flow.However,the influence of sand particles on hydrate formation mechanisms and rheological properties remains poorly understood.Consequently,using a high-pressure reactor system,the phase equilibrium conditions,hydrate formation characteristics,hydrate concentration,and the slurry viscosity in micron-sized sand system are investigated in this work.Furthermore,the effects of sand particle size,sand concentration,and initial pressure on these properties are analyzed.The results indicate that a high concentration of micron-sized sand particles enhances the formation of methane hydrates.When the volume fraction of sand particles exceeds or equals 3%,the phase equilibrium conditions of the methane hydrate shift to the left relative to that of the pure water system(lower temperature,higher pressure).This shift becomes more pronounced with smaller particle sizes.Besides,under these sand concentration conditions,methane hydrates exhibit secondary or even multiple formation events,though the formation rate decreases.Additionally,the torque increases significantly and fluctuates considerably.The Roscoe-Brinkman model yields the most accurate slurry viscosity calculations,and as sand concentration increases,both hydrate concentration and slurry viscosity also increase.

文摘The viscosity of anti-irradiated glass was quantitatively characterized using beam bending viscometry(BBV),parallel plate viscometry(PPV),and rotational viscometry(RV).The Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann(VFT)equation was determined to be the most suitable for representing the viscosity-temperature characteristics of anti-irradiation glass by comparing the fitting effects and accuracy of different equations within different test ranges.The fragility index m of anti-irradiation glass was 47.5,as calculated using an Angell plot,and the cause of the appropriate fit of the VFT equation was analyzed.The effects of different heating temperatures and loading rates on the tensile properties of glass were studied using a universal testing machine.The results indicated that,at a tensile rate of 10 mm/s,the heating temperature increased from 903 to 1023 K,and the deformation process of anti-irradiation glass transitioned from unstable to stable.When the tensile rate increased from 10 to 30 mm/s at 1023 K,the deformation process of the glass was extremely unstable.This work provides theoretical guidance for the large-size preparation of flexible anti-irradiation glass.

文摘Modified ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer(EVAM)and amino-functionalized nano-silica(NSiO_(2))par-ticles were employed as the base materials for the synthesis of the nanocomposite pour point depressant designated as EVAM-g-NSiO_(2).This synthesis involved a chemical grafting process within a solution system,followed by a structural characterization.Moreover,combining macro-rheological performance with microscopic structure observation,the influence of the nanocomposite pour point depressant on the rheological properties of the model waxy oil system was investigated.The results indicate that when the mass ratio of NSiO_(2) to EVAM is 1:100,the prepared EVAM-g-NSiO_(2) nanocomposite pour point depressant exhibits excellent pour point reduction and viscosity reduction properties.Moreover,the nanocomposite pour point depressant obtained through a chemical grafting reaction demonstrates structural stability(the bonding between the polymer and nanoparticles is stable).The pour points of model waxy oils doped with 500 mg/kg ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer(EVA),EVAM,and EVAM/SiO_(2) were reduced from 34℃ to 23,20,and 21℃,respectively.After adding the same dosage of EVAM-g-NSiO_(2) nanocomposite pour point depressant,the pour point of the model wax oil decreased to 12℃ and the viscosity at 32℃ decreased from 2399 to 2396.9 mPa·s,achieving an impressive viscosity reduction rate of 99.9%.Its performance surpassed that of EVA,EVAM,and EVAM/SiO_(2).The EVAM-g-NSiO_(2) dispersed in the oil phase acts as the crystallization nucleus for wax crystals,resulting in a dense structure of wax crystals.The compact wax crystal blocks are difficult to overlap with each other,pre-venting the formation of a three-dimensional network structure,thereby improving the low-temperature flowability of the model waxy oil.

文摘Although significant progress has been made in micromechanical characterization and upscaling of homogeneous materials,systematic investigations into deposition-controlled micro–macro rheological relationships in heterogeneous sedimentary soft rocks remain limited,particularly concerning timedependent viscous parameter upscaling.This study investigates six typical fluvial and lacustrine microfacies from the Ordos Basin,China,including riverbed lag,natural levee,floodplain lake,point bar,sheet sand,and shallow lake mud.Mineral composition and microstructure are characterized,and nanoindentation creep tests quantify viscoelastic properties.A micro–macro upscaling method that transforms the time-domain Burger model into the frequency domain and utilizes three traditional homogenization schemes:dilute approximation,Mori-Tanaka,and self-consistent methods,for comparative estimation of macroscopic rheological parameters is proposed.Microstructural analysis demonstrates distinct fabric patterns controlled by depositional energy.Floodplain lake and sheet sand microfacies show superior rheological stability due to dense quartz skeletons,whereas riverbed lag and shallow lake mud perform poorly,caused by skeleton relaxation and clay-dominated slip,respectively.The point bar microfacies exhibits a“rigid-soft hybrid”behavior,with high long-term stability but reduced transient stability.Comparatively,the frequency-domain upscaling framework developed in this study,incorporating the Mori-Tanaka scheme,demonstrates satisfactory agreement with experimental data,validating its capability to predict macroscopic viscoelastic properties from microstructural features.

文摘The toughness of thermoplastic polymers such as polypropylene(PP)can be improved by adding elastomers-based toughening agents,and the phase morphology of these toughening agents is very important for the strength and toughness of PP.The low-temperature toughness of PP was improved by inserting high-density polyethylene(HDPE)between PP and polystyrene-b-ethylene-co-propyleneb-polystyrene(SEPS)to form an unusual SEPS@HDPE core–shell structure,with SEPS as the core and HDPE as the shell.Based on the microtopography and rheological behavior characterization,HDPE in PP/SEPS/HDPE composites was found to serve as an emulsifier,decrease the size of SEPS particles,and promote the homogeneous dispersion of dispersed phase particles in the matrix.An increase in the HDPE content shifted the toughening mechanism of PP composites from cavitation to matrix shear yielding.The reduction in the distance between the dispersed core–shell structure particles promoted shear yielding in the PP composites,leading to increased toughness.The creation of an intermediate HDPE layer with a moderate modulus was crucial for dispersing stress concentrations and significantly improving toughness without compromising the tensile strength.These findings will facilitate the fabrication of high-toughness PP products at low temperatures.

文摘Understanding the rheology of bentonite suspensions is crucial for ensuring the safety of engineering practices.However,the rheological mechanisms of bentonite remain unclear due to the limitations of conventional experimental techniques,particularly in assessing the microscopic interactions between clay particles and their impact on rheological properties.In this paper,the rheological behaviors of Namontmorillonite were studied with a focus on interparticle interactions.Both equilibrium molecular dynamics(MD)and non-equilibrium MD simulations were conducted to understand the physical properties of Na-montmorillonite under zero shear and various shear rates,respectively.The interaction between two parallel clay particles was determined in simulations,indicating that the classical Darjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek(DLVO)theory underestimates the interactions for a small separation distance.Na-montmorillonite exhibits a typical shear thinning behavior under shearing.However,as water content increases,it begins to behave more like liquid water.The yield stress of montmorillonite,as determined by the Bingham model,was found to be linearly related to the interaction pressures between clay particles.Besides MD simulations,the microstructure of clay suspension was further quantified using the separation distance and incline angle between non-parallel clay particles.Based on MD results and the quantified clay structure,a model was developed to estimate the yield stress of montmorillonite considering various influence factors,including electrolyte concentration,temperature,and solid fraction.Finally,from a comparison with calculated and experimental data,the results confirm the good performance of the proposed model.These findings provide significant insights for understanding the rheological soil behaviors and evaluating the yield stress of bentonite suspensions.

文摘To reveal the effects of environmental and loading conditions, as well as asphalt properties on the nonlinear rheological behavior of asphalt, the large amplitude oscillation shear(LAOS) test was introduced, and the Fourier transform rheology, Lissajous curve method, and the LAOS fatigue test have been applied to investigate the nonlinear rheological behavior of asphalt binders. The research results indicate that a decrease in temperature, an increase in shear frequency and strain level, the introduction of polymer modifiers, and the aging effect of asphalt can significantly increase the nonlinearity of asphalt, manifested by the higher relative magnitude of the third harmonic and zero-strain nonlinear coefficient. For the two polymer modifiers selected in this study, the 4%polyurethane modifier exhibits a higher nonlinear lifting effect than the 4% styrene-butadiene-styrene(SBS). The impact of long-term aging on nonlinear viscoelasticity is observably greater than that of short-term aging. The zero-strain nonlinear coefficient estimated based on the average value method can accurately characterize the nonlinear viscoelasticity of asphalt, which can serve as an effective supplement to the relative magnitude of the third harmonic. All asphalts exhibit shear thinning behavior under the test temperature of 24℃, and the decrease in test temperature, the increase in shear rate and strain level, the introduction of modifiers, and the aging effect of asphalt all exacerbate the shear thinning behavior of asphalt. In addition, the fatigue failure process of asphalt materials is accompanied by an increasing degree of nonlinearity.

文摘Based on thermodynamic calculations and continuous rheological extrusion(CRE)technology,Al-Ti-V-B master alloys were designed and prepared.The morphology and the distribution of the refined phases in the master alloys were analyzed by XRD,SEM,and TEM.The effects of master alloy addition and holding time on the microstructure and mechanical properties of A356 alloy were investigated.Under the optimum refiner addition of 0.3wt.%and the holding time of 20 min,the average grain size of the refined A356 alloy is 151.8±9.11μm,89.62%lower than that of original A356 alloy.The tensile strength and elongation of as-cast A356refined alloy are 196.11 MPa and 5.75%,respectively.After T6 treatment,the tensile strength and elongation of A356 refined alloy are 290.1 MPa and 3.09%,respectively.The fracture morphology is characterized by a predominance of along-crystal fracture with a small amount of through-crystal fracture,attributed to the refined grains.Finer grains promote crack path deflection and localized plastic deformation,enhancing energy dissipation and reducing the tendency for brittle fracture.This study provides a novel approach to improving the mechanical properties of A356 alloy through grain refinement using CRE Al-Ti-V-B master alloy.

文摘High-performance devices usually have curved surfaces, requiring high accuracy of shape and low surface roughness. It is a challenge to achieve high accuracies for form and position on a device with low surface roughness. However, due to the unique nonlinear rheology, magnetorheological fluids with hard abrasives are widely applied in ultra-precision surface finishing. Compared with conventional mechanical finishing, magnetorheological finishing displays obviously advantages, such as high precision shape of machined surface, low surface roughness and subsurface damage, and easy control for finishing processes. However, finishing performance depends on various factors, e.g. volume fraction and distribution of magnetic particles, types of hard abrasives and additives, strength of magnetic field, finishing forms. Therefore, a comprehensive review on related works is essential to understand the state-of-the-art of magnetorheological finishing and beneficial to inspire researchers to develop lower cost, higher machining accuracy and efficient approaches and setups, which demonstrates a significant guidance for development of high-performance parts in fields of aerospace, navigation and clinical medicine etc. This review starts from the rheological property of magnetorheological fluids, summarizing dynamically nonlinear rheological properties and stable finishing approaches. Then, the effect of components in magnetorheological fluids is discussed on finishing performance, consisting of magnetic particles, carrier fluid, additives and abrasives. Reasonable configuration of magnetorheological fluids, and different magnetorheological finishing methods are presented for variously curved surfaces. In addition, the current finishing forms and future directions are also addressed in this review.
文摘For evaluation of the rheological and mechanical properties of highly filled wood plastic composites （WPCs）, polypropylene/polyethylene （PP/PE） blends were grafted with maleic anhydride （MAH） to enhance the interfacial adhesion between wood fiber and matrix. WPCs were prepared from wood fiber up to 60 wt.% and modified PP/PE was blended by extrusion. The rheological properties were studied by using dynamic measurement. According to the strain sweep test, the linear viscoelastic region of composites in the melt was determined. The result showed that the storage modulus was independent of the strain at low strain region （〈0.1%）. The frequency sweep resuits indicated that all composites exhibited shear thinning behavior, and both the storage modulus and complex viscosity of MAH modified composites were decreased comparing to those unmodified. Flexural properties and impact strength of the prepared WPCs were measured according to the relevant standard specifications. The flexural and impact strength of the manufactured composites significantly increased and reached a maximum when MAH dosage was 1.0 wt%, whereas the flexural modulus after an initial decreased, also increased with MAH dosage. The increase in mechanical properties indicated that the presence of anhydride groups enhanced the interracial adhesion between wood fiber and PP/PE blends.

文摘By the methods of uniaxial single-stage loading and graded incremental cyclic loading, the creep experiments were performed on the deep saturated rock from Dongguashan Mine, and the creep curves of saturated rock under different loading stresses were obtained. By comparing with the creep rule of dry rock in the same location, the creep rule of deep saturated rock was analyzed. Based on the united rheological mechanical model, the rheological model of deep saturated rock was recognized, and the parameters of the model were determined. The results show that the creep curves are very smooth under low stress, but the phenomena of wave and catastrophe turn up under high stress, and the bearing capacity of rock is weakening over time. The rheological properties of saturated and dry rocks are very different under tlie condition of deep high stress, especially when unloading, degradation and damage of rock quality is more serious, and the effect of water cannot be neglected. The H--HIN--NJS model （Schofield-Scott-Blair model） was selected to represent the rheology rule of deep saturated rock, and the fitting curves of model agree well with the experiment data, so the selected model is reasonable.
文摘Ti-6Al-4V alloy powder was taken as raw material. 60%（mass fraction） paraffin, 35%low density polyethylene and 5%stearic acid were employed as binders to prepare injection feedstocks. Capillary rheometer was adopted to determine the rheological parameters and to analyze the rheological properties of the feedstocks at different milling time, powder loading and temperature. It is indicated through the results that the viscosity increases and the value of n decreases with the increase of milling time. The more the powder loading is, the higher the viscosity is. The empirical formula on the relationship between the viscosity and the powder loading is： ηr=η/ηb=A（1-Ф/Фmax）/^- m . The value m is calculated as 0.33. The flow activation energy Ea decreases with the increase of shear rate.

文摘The rheological behavior of low consistency thermomechanical pulp of Chinese fir harvested by intermediate thinning was analyzed. The results show that the apparent viscosity of pulp changed along with the beating degree, pulp consistency and shearing velocity. With the increasing of pulp consistency, the apparent viscosity of pulp increased gradually. Beating degree of pulp had an effect on microstructure of pulp. The apparent viscosity of pulp declined as beating degree of pulp increased, and the apparent viscosity of pulp fell along with the shearing velocity increasing. Based on the results, the rheological models are set up. The models showed that the fluid types of the low consistency pulp could be described as pseudoplastics fluids （non-Newtonian fluids）.
文摘The cationic guar （CG） is synthesized and the rheological behavior of aqueous solutions of CG in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate （SDS） is studied in detail. The steady viscosity measurements show that the zero shear viscosity enhancement can be almost 3 orders of magnitude as the concentration of SDS increases from 0 to 0.043%. The gel-like formation is observed as the concentration of SDS is greater than 0.016%. The oscillatory rheological measurements of CG solutions in the presence of SDS show that the crossover modulus is almost independent of the concentration of SDS whereas the apparent relaxation time increases swiftly upon increasing the concentration of SDS. The experimental results indicate that the strength rather than the number of the cross-links is greatly affected by SDS molecules. The mechanism concerning the effect of SDS upon the rheology of CG solutions can be coined by the two-stage model. Before the formation of cross-links at the critical concentration, the electrostatic interaction between SDS and cationic site of CG chains plays a key role and the SDS molecules bind to CG chains through the electrostatic interaction. After the formation of cross-links at the concentration greater than the critical concentration, the cooperative hydrophobic interaction become dominant and SDS molecules bind to the cross-links through the hydrophobic interaction. The theological behavior of aqueous solutions of CG in the presence of SDS is chiefly determined by the micelle-like cross-links between CG chains. In fact, the flow activation energy of CG solution, obtained from the temperature dependence of the apparent relaxation time, falls in the range of transferring a hydrophobic tail of SDS from the micelle to an aqueous environment.
文摘To maintain tight control over rheological properties of high-density water-based drilling fluids, it is essential to understand the factors influencing the theology of water-based drilling fluids. This paper examines temperature effects on the rheological properties of two types of high-density water-based drilling fluids （fresh water-based and brine-based） under high temperature and high pressure （HTHP） with a Fann 50SL rheometer. On the basis of the water-based drilling fluid systems formulated in laboratory, this paper mainly describes the influences of different types and concentration of clay, the content of a colloid stabilizer named GHJ-1 and fluid density on the rheological parameters such as viscosity and shear stress. In addition, the effects of aging temperature and aging time of the drilling fluid on these parameters were also examined. Clay content and proportions for different densities of brine-based fluids were recommended to effectively regulate the rheological properties. Four theological models, the Bingham, power law, Casson and H-B models, were employed to fit the rheological parameters. It turns out that the H-B model was the best one to describe the rheological properties of the high-density drilling fluid under HTHP conditions and power law model produced the worst fit. In addition, a new mathematical model that describes the apparent viscosity as a function of temperature and pressure was established and has been applied on site.
