Initial setting time of the retarding mortar may vary from several hours to 15 d at 5 ℃-35 ℃ due to quantities and average curing temperature. And its 28 d compressive strength is above 35 MPa. Thus the influence of quantities on setting time and 28 d compressive strength, and the relationship between setting time and average curing temperature were investigated. The optimum quantities were obtained by studying the interaction of admixtures, and the retarding mechanism was discussed. Based on 52 retard-bonded prestressed strands by manual work from 24 retard-bonded prestressed concrete T-beams, static friction drag, change factor κ and friction factor μ were obtained from the test when retard-bonded prestressed strands were tensioned. Application of the retarding mortar will be vast in practical concrete projects.展开更多

The Xin’anjiang model is used to forecast the flood discharge hydrograph of the upstream and tributary. The flood routing of the main channel and flood diversion areas is based on the Muskingum method. The water stage of the downstream boundary condition is calculated with the water stage simulating hydrologic method and the water stages of each cross section are calculated from downstream to upstream with the diffusion wave nonlinear water stage method. The input flood discharge hydrograph from the main channel to the flood diversion area is estimated with the fixed split ratio of the main channel discharge. The flood flow inside the flood retarding area is calculated as a reservoir with the water balance method. The faded-memory forgetting factor least square of error series is used as the real-time error correction method for forecasting discharge and water stage. As an example, the combined models were applied to flood forecasting and regulation of the upper reaches of the Huai River above Lutaizi during the 2007 flood season. The forecast achieves a high accuracy and the results show that the combined models provide a scientific way of flood forecasting and regulation for a complex watershed with flood diversion and retarding areas.展开更多

Some typical textile samples were collected from the Potala Palace. Their combustion properties were analyzed by UL 94 Vertical Burning test and Limiting Oxygen Index test. The effects of plateau climate on combustion properties, an important fact required to be considered in the flame retarding design for combustible textiles, were preliminarily compared via test data in the plain and those in the plateau. Based on the foregoing analyses, some thoughts were presented on the clean and feasible flame retarding means for the decorative textiles due to their special applications in Tibet, in ancient buildings and in plateau climate. The fire resistance, weather resistance, UV resistance, endurance, ornamentation and religious performances for these textiles must be taken into considerations comprehensively in the designs.展开更多

Factorial tests were also conducted to investigate the four main factors： water-cementing materials ratio, water content, content of superplasticizers （SP） and fly ash content.

The current-voltage （Ⅰ- Ⅴ） curve, which should theoretically descend, went up as the ion retarding potential was increased. Various explanations, such as the Townsend discharge theory and secondary electron emission etc. were proposed but denied by the theory application condition or the experiment results. An angle of about -10° was found between the axes of the ion beam and the RPA according to the contours of the ion beam density and direction. The particle simulation and experiment of the sum of the collector and wall current were conducted at different incident ion angles. The trends of the Ⅰ- Ⅴ curve in simulation results conformed with the experimental results in most cases. The ion trajectories were simulated at different retarding potentials with an incident angle of -10°. According ：to these results, the reason for the anomalous phenomenon is that when there is a specific angle between the axes of the ion beam and the RPA, more ions are repelled from the vicinity of the ion retarding grid to avoid striking on the grid as the ion retarding potential increases. These redundant ions reach the plate and thus lead to the formation of an ascending Ⅰ- Ⅴ curve.展开更多

Many phosphorus/nitrogen (P/N)-based flame retardants are ef- fective in PLA, but their high addition loading usually decreases the mechanical strength of the PLA bulk. For polyphosphoramides, despite high fire-retardant efficiency, their chemical synthesis often generates chemical wastes as byproducts. Herein, we report an atom-economic and highly efficient oligomeric P/N fire retardant (APN) prepared using a mild Michael addition polymerization with no byproducts. Using only 3 wt% APN, the resulting PLA exhibits desired fire retardancy including a UL-94 V-0 rating and a limiting oxygen index of 37.6%. Furthermore, the toughness of the fire-retardant PLA increases by 85% compared to pure PLA, with both tensile strength and thermal stability preserved. This work offers an atom-economic strategy for synthesizing highly efficient P/N fire retardants for use in the creation of fire-resistant PLA with robust mechanical properties.展开更多

However, the flammability of organic compounds brings in serious concern on battery safety. In addition to use flame-retarding electrolyte/electrolyte additives or battery separators,flame retardancy can readily be achieved through the integration of flame-retarding unit into the polymer backbone, imparting the flame retardancy permanently. The as-designed polymer based on phenothiazine shows significantly shortened self-extinguished time without deteriorating its intrinsic thermodynamic and electrochemical properties. Moreover, two electron per phenothiazine molecule is realized for the first time in a highly reversible manner with discharge voltages of 3.52 V and 4.16 V versus Li+/Li and an average capacity of ca. 120 mAh g-1 at a current rate of 2 C. The origin of the reversibility is investigated through density functional theory(DFT) calculations. These findings address the importance of molecular design for safer and more stable organic materials for batteries.展开更多

文摘Flame-retardant composites with high electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding performance are desirable for electronic device packaging.Despite great potential of MXene for high EMI,it still remains a great challenge to develop high-performance flame-retardant polymer/MXene composites with excellent EMI shielding effectiveness because of the poor oxidative stability of MXene.Herein,phosphorylated MXene/polypropylene(PP)composites are prepared by coating phosphorylated MXene on PP fabric followed by spraying polyethylenimine(PEI)and hot-pressing.The phosphorylated MXene proves to be more durable against oxidation than pure MXene due to the protection effect of polyphosphates.Upon hot-pressing,melted PP fibers are fused together at their contact points and thus as-prepared composites are bi-continuous with two interpenetrating phases.The composites show significantly improved thermal stability and flame retardancy relative to pure PP,with a low total heat release(THR)of 3.7 kJ/g and a heat release rate(HRR)of 50.0 W/g,which are reduced by 78%and 87%,respectively.In addition,the composites exhibit a high electrical conductivity of~36,700 S/m and an EMI shielding performance of~90 d B over the whole frequency range of 8–12 GHz with a thickness of~400μm.The as-developed PP/MXene composites hold great promise for reliable protection of next-generation electronic devices working in complex environments.

文摘Renewable and biodegradable polylactide (PLA) has excellent mechanical strength but is highly flammable which restricts its practical applications. Many phosphorus/nitrogen (P/N)-based flame retardants are ef- fective in PLA, but their high addition loading usually decreases the mechanical strength of the PLA bulk. For polyphosphoramides, despite high fire-retardant efficiency, their chemical synthesis often generates chemical wastes as byproducts. Herein, we report an atom-economic and highly efficient oligomeric P/N fire retardant (APN) prepared using a mild Michael addition polymerization with no byproducts. Using only 3 wt% APN, the resulting PLA exhibits desired fire retardancy including a UL-94 V-0 rating and a limiting oxygen index of 37.6%. Furthermore, the toughness of the fire-retardant PLA increases by 85% compared to pure PLA, with both tensile strength and thermal stability preserved. This work offers an atom-economic strategy for synthesizing highly efficient P/N fire retardants for use in the creation of fire-resistant PLA with robust mechanical properties.
文摘An organophosphorus-based diamine has been synthesized and used as a curing and flame retarding bifunctional agent for epoxy resins.This phosphorodiamidate functions not only as a crosslinking materials in the Epon 828 epoxy resin curing process but also as a fire retarding compound to produce thin films or composites upon curing.This phosphorus-containing reactive amine was synthesized via condensation of phenyphosphonic dichloride with ethylenediamine in the presence of sodium methoxide.The product was then purified and later characterized by NMR and FTIR spectroscopy as well as MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.Kinetics studies of the curing reaction of the phosphorodiamidate were carried out in comparison with the non-phosphorus containing ethylenediamine reference crosslinking agent.Thermal stability of the cured epoxy ware investigated by thermogravimetric analysis(TGA)and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC).Moreover,flame retardant properties of the obtained materials was investigated by limiting oxygen index(LOI)measurements as well as the UL-40 method.The obtained results show that epoxy resin cured with phosphorodiamidate possesses higher thermostability compared to the epoxy cured with the regular ethylenediamine counterpart.This is evident by higher amount of char formed upon burning.More importantly,the LOI value of 27 was observed in the phosphorodiamidate-cured epoxy resin compared with LOI of 20 of the epoxy resin cured with ethylenediamine where no phosphorus was present.The UL-94 highest rating of V-0 materials was obtained with only about 2-3 wt%of the phosphorus element.The chemistry,curing kinetics,and thermal properties of these new epoxy formulations are discussed.

文摘Polymeric organic battery materials are promising alternatives to the transition-metal-based ones owing to their enriched chemistries. However, the flammability of organic compounds brings in serious concern on battery safety. In addition to use flame-retarding electrolyte/electrolyte additives or battery separators,flame retardancy can readily be achieved through the integration of flame-retarding unit into the polymer backbone, imparting the flame retardancy permanently. The as-designed polymer based on phenothiazine shows significantly shortened self-extinguished time without deteriorating its intrinsic thermodynamic and electrochemical properties. Moreover, two electron per phenothiazine molecule is realized for the first time in a highly reversible manner with discharge voltages of 3.52 V and 4.16 V versus Li+/Li and an average capacity of ca. 120 mAh g-1 at a current rate of 2 C. The origin of the reversibility is investigated through density functional theory(DFT) calculations. These findings address the importance of molecular design for safer and more stable organic materials for batteries.

文摘The unparalleled energy density has granted lithium-sulfur batteries(LSBs)with attractive usages.Unfortunately,LSBs still face some unsurpassed challenges in industrialization,with polysulfides shuttling,dendrite growth and thermal hazard as the major problems triggering the cycling instability and low safety.With the merit of convenience,the method of designing functional separator has been adapted.Concretely,the carbon aerogel confined with CoS_(2)(CoS_(2)-NCA)is constructed and coated on Celgard separator surface,acquiring CoS_(2)-NCA modified separator(CoS_(2)-NCA@C),which holds the promoted electrolyte affinity and flame retardance.As revealed,CoS_(2)-NCA@C cell gives a high discharge capacity 1536.9 mAh/g at 1st cycle,much higher than that of Celgard cell(987.1 mAh/g).Moreover,the thermal runaway triggering time is dramatically prolonged by 777.4 min,corroborating the promoted thermal safety of cell.Noticeably,the higher coulombic efficiency stability and lower overpotential jointly confirm the efficacy of CoS_(2)-NCA@C in suppressing the lithium dendrite growth.Overall,this work can provide useful inspirations for designing functional separator,coping with the vexing issues of LSBs.
文摘The retarding effect of protein retarder on phosphorus building gypsum(PBG)and desulfurization building gypsum(DBG)was investigated,and the results show that protein retarder for DBG can effectively prolong the setting time and displays a better retarding effect,but for PBG shows a poor retarding effect.Furthermore,the deterioration reason of the retarding effect of protein retarder on PBG was investigated by measuring the pH value and the retarder concentration of the liquid phase from vacuum filtration of PBG slurry at different hydration time,and the measure to improve the retarding effect of protein retarding on PBG was suggested.The pH value of PBG slurry(<5.0)is lower than that of DBG slurry(7.8-8.5).After hydration for 5 min,the concentration of retarder in liquid phase of DBG slurry gradually decreases,but in liquid phase of PBG slurry continually increases,which results in the worse retarding effect of protein retarder on PBG.The liquid phase pH value of PBG slurry can be adjusted higher by sodium silicate,which is beneficial to improvement in the retarding effect of the retarder.By adding 1.0%of sodium silicate,the initial setting time of PBG was efficiently prolonged from 17 to 210 min,but little effect on the absolute dry flexural strength was observed.

文摘With the global urea market expanding rapidly,exploring a sustainable method for urea generation is imperative.Significant development of CO_(2)RR and NO_(3)RR has been achieved,which potentially constructs the C–N bond for urea electrosynthesis through simultaneous reduction of CO_(2)and NO_(3)^(−).However,urea electrosynthesis involves a complicated reaction mechanism,posing a huge challenge to efficient catalysts.Rapid reduction of NO_(3)^(−)-to-NH_(3)results in NH_(3)as the by-product and hinders the C–N coupling reaction,leading to inferior selectivity of urea.Cu-based catalysts can enrich the^(*)NO,which can retard the individual reduction of NO_(3)^(−)and couple with the^(*)CO intermediate.In this work,we fabricate CoCu nanosheets,in which the introduction of Cu can retard individual NO_(3)^(−)reduction to NH_(3).CoCu nanosheets achieve a maximum urea Faradic efficiency(FE)of 46.8%and a yield rate of 24.5μmol h^(−1)cm^(−2).Besides,we also utilized a flow cell to promote CO_(2)transfer,reaching a maximum FE of 21.9%.The control experiments imply the addition of Cu can retard the hydrogenation of NO_(3)^(−)and in-situ ATR-SEIRAS proves the coupling of^(*)NO with^(*)CO generates the key intermediate,^(*)ONCO.This work provides a feasible approach to designing highperformance catalysts for urea electrosynthesis by retarding individual reactions.

文摘MPHPB was prepared from melamine,phenylphosphonic acid and boric acid,and its flame retardant effect in PE was investigated.Compared to the intermediate product(melamine phenyl hypophosphite(MPHP)),the residual char increased from 17.9% of MPHP to 41.2% of MPHPB at 800℃.The limiting oxygen index(LOI)of PE/20%MPHPB is 23.6%,which reaches V-0 rating.After the addition of 20%MPHPB,the total heat release(THR),peak heat release rate(pK-HRR),and average effective thermal combustion rates(av-EHC)of PE decreased.Additionally,characterizations including the pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(Py-GC-MS),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),raman spectroscopy test(LRS)and fourier transform infrared(FT-IR)were taken to investigate the flame retardant mechanism,and the results show that MPHPB plays roles in both gas and condensed phases.

文摘To address the issues of short setting time and high bleeding rate of A component,which easily cause pipe plugging and poor grouting performance when a two-component grout is injected synchronously behind the Segmental Lining,the inorganic retarder sodium pyrophosphate(TSPP)and three organic retarders were added to the A component:sodium citrate(SC),sodium tartrate(ST)and glycerol(GLY).The effect law and microscopic mechanism of viscosity,bleeding rate,setting time,gelling time,compressive strength,and stone rate were investigated.The results revealed that the addition of retarders could enhance the stability and setting time of the A component and increase the gelling time,stone rate,and compressive strength of two-component grout.Among them,the performance of the grout with an SC dosage of 0.1% was superior.The bleeding rate of this grout was reduced to 3.5%,the stone rate of the two-component grout was more than 99%,and the early compressive strength and late compressive strength of this grout were increased by approximately 35% and 7%,respectively.The initial and final setting time of the A component with a TSPP dosage of 0.3% was the longest,which was prolonged to 17 and 26 h,respectively.Microscopic analysis revealed that the four retarders hindered the hydration process of cement through complexation and adsorption,and inhibited the hydration of C_(3)S and the crystallisation of CH.Moreover,they reduced the defects caused by the rapid reaction of water glass and CH on the solid phase structure,enabled the microstructure of the stone body to be denser,and subsequently,enhanced the compressive strength.

文摘By combining the merits of radiative cooling(RC)and evaporation cooling(EC),radiative coupled evaporative cooling(REC)has attracted considerable attention for sub-ambient cooling purposes.However,for outdoor devices,the interior heating power would increase the working temperature and fire risk,which would suppress their above-ambient heat dissipation capabilities and passive water cycle properties.In this work,we introduced a REC design based on an all-in-one photonic hydrogel for above-ambient heat dissipation and flame retardancy.Unlike conventional design RC film for heat dissipation with limited cooling power and fire risk,REC hydrogel can greatly improve the heat dissipation performance in the daytime with a high workload,indicating a 12.0℃lower temperature than the RC film under the same conditions in the outdoor experiment.In the nighttime with a low workload,RC-assisted adsorption can improve atmospheric water harvesting to ensure EC in the daytime.In addition,our REC hydrogel significantly enhanced flame retardancy by absorbing heat without a corresponding temperature rise,thus mitigating fire risks.Thus,our design shows a promising solution for the thermal management of outdoor devices,delivering outstanding performance in both heat dissipation and flame retardancy.
