Influences of ferrite content and iron ore powder content on electromagnetic wave absorbing property of porous concrete are studied.The radar cross section(RSC)of samples was tested in a microwave anechoic chamber.Results show that the optimum content of ferrite is 15%,and the minimum,maximum and average reflectivity of the sample is-46.60 dB,-10.84 dB and-23.75 dB,respectively.And the sample's improved bandwidth is 8.2 GHz.The optimum content of iron ore powder is 20%,and the minimum,maximum and average reflectivity of the sample is-34.69 dB,-9.25 dB and-20.69 dB,respectively.And the sample's improved bandwidth is 6 GHz.In conclusion,appropriate ferrite and iron ore powder can improve wave absorbing property and widen wave absorption bandwidth of porous concrete.
Freeze-thaw durabilities of three types of concretesnormal portland cement concrete （OPC）, high strength concrete （HSC） and steel fiber reinforced high strength concrete （SFRHSC） were systemically investigated under the attacks of chemical solution, and combination of external flexural stress and chemical solution. Four kinds of bitterns from salt lakes in Sinkiang, Qinghai, Inner Mongolia and Tibet provinces of China were used as chemical attack solutions. The relative dynamic modulus （RDM） was used as an index for evaluating the damage degree during the course of chemical attack and stress corrosion. The experimental results show that the freeze-thaw durability of concrete is visibly reduced in the present of the flexural stress, i e, stress accelerates the damage process. In order to quantify the stress accelerated effect, a stress accelerating coefficient was proposed. The stress accelerating coefficient is closely related with the types of bitterns and the numbers of freeze-thaw cycles is. The more numbers of freeze-thaw cycles is, the greater the stress accelerating coefficient for various concretes will be. In addition, there also exists a critical ratio of external stress to the maximum flexural stress. If the stress ratio exceeds the critical one, the freeze-thaw durability of various concretes will be greatly decreased compared to the responding concretes without applied stress. The critical stress ratio of OPC, HSC and SFRHSC is 0.30, 0.40 and 0.40, respectively, indicating that HSC and SFRHSC have advantages over OPC and are suitable to use in the bittern erosion regions.
By using waste bricks as aggregate,a kind of porous ecological concrete was prepared and the mixing technique and its properties were studied. Effects of the cement paste fluidity on workability of the porous ecological concrete were investigated,and influences of the water-cement ratio,the aggregate-cement ratio and the aggregate size on compressive strength and porosity of the porous ecological concrete were also discussed. Results show that for preparation of the porous ecological concrete,the aggregates should be enveloped with neat cement paste,and recommended fluidity of the cement paste is 200～235 mm. With the increasing of the aggregate-cement ratio,porosity of the porous ecological concrete increases while the 28 d compressive strength decreases. With increasing of the water-cement ratio,porosity of the porous ecological concrete decreases. And relationship between compressive strength and water-cement ratio of the porous ecological concrete does not follow Bolomey's formula. As a result of this study the porous ecological concrete is prepared,its porosity is 38.93%,the water absorption is 11.39% and the compressive strength is 1.14 MPa.
The bonding status and chemical environment of SiO4 and AlO4 tetrahedras of three types of geopolymeric products were systematically investigated by infrared spectroscopy. The relationship between amorphous geopolymeric products and zeolite crystals with the same overall chemical compositions was also discussed. The infrared evidence shows that SiO4 tetrahedra is partially bonded by AlO4 during the hydration process of geopolymeric cement. The two types of tetrahedras jointly construct the three dimensional framework structures of the geopolymeric products. The mutual transformation between geopolymeric products and corresponding zeolite crystals will take place once the reaction condition is suitable, which reveals that the nature ofgeopolymeric products are probably the amorphous equivalent of the corresponding zeolite crystals.
The influence of glycol,the main composition of the most frequently used aircraft dicer,on the freeze-thaw durability of high performance concrete（HPC）is investigated.Freeze-thaw durability of HPC is tested by accelerated freeze-thaw test.Four kinds of the solution,i.e.,tap water,3.5% NaCl solution,glycol solutions,and a LBR-A type commercial aircraft deicer are employed.Results show that freeze-thaw durability of HPC exposed to glycol solutions is closely related to the solution concentrations.The failure of HPC exposed to 3.5% glycol solution is similar to that of those exposed to 3.5% NaCl solution,i.e.,serious surface scaling.While the damage of HPC exposed to 12.5%—25% glycol solutions is postponed.Compared with glycol solution,the commercial aircraft deicer has much more negative effects on HPC freeze-thaw durability compared with 3.5% NaCl solution.In the presence of commercial aircraft deicer for HPC subjected to freeze-thaw cycles,the deterioration is mainly due to scaling and spalling.
