To understand the mechanical properties of the backfill, to reveal the evolvement of micromechanical fissure of backfill, a uniaxial compression experiment was carried out for the full tailing cemented backfill. After loading, the microstructure of the specimens was observed by microscope and the pore characteristic parameters were analyzed. The results showed that the diameter of the initial damage hole of the backfill was mostly between 0 and 40 μm, the hole diameter increases gradually with the increase of pressure, and the hole diameter reached more than 5000 μm in the postpeak damage stage. The upper structure of the backfill specimen is compact while the lower structure is relatively loose. The cracks and interfaces between tailings particles and cement paste are mechanical weak surfaces, where the cracks are mainly generated and propagated. The tip of microfractures in the backfill is damaged by the influence of stress concentration. In the failure process, both surface porosity and fracture density decrease first and then increase, and the average pore diameter increases gradually. The results have guiding significance for the study of backfill mechanical properties and goaf filling design.

The ZrC/SiC multi-components modified C/C composites were prepared by using a hybrid precursor containning polycarbosilane and organic zirconium-contained polymeric precursor as impregnant and C/C composites of low density as preform. The porosity, microstructure and mechanical properties of samples were characterized with mercury injection apparatus, scanning electron microscopy and universal electron testing machine respectively. The results show that the porosity and average pore diameter decrease firstly and increase subsequently with the increase of organic zirconium content of the precursor. When the content of organic zirconium is 50%, the porosity and average pore diameter reach minimum which were7.27% and 0.0795um respectively. The most probabilistic pore diameter shifted from 10-100um to 1-10um at the same time; Meanwhile, the flexural properties also increases and drops immediately as the content of organic zirconium in the precursor adds. When the content of organic zirconium is 25%, the flexural strength reaches maximum of 245.20MPa.The improved flexural properties is attributed to the proper bonding of fiber-matrix interface and the low porosity of samples.

Dry/wet method was used to prepare CaCuTi4O12 (CCTO) hollow fibers (HFs) and then the structural and physico-mechanical properties of HFs were characterized by XRD, FESEM, BET and tensile strength, respectively. The outer diameter and thickness of CCTO HFs were found to be 650 μm and 390 μm, respectively. A finger-like macrovoids and sponge-like was observed inside the membrane with a denser structure in the outer layer. It was observed that the crystallite size was increased from 28.5 nm to 37.0 nm while the average pore diameter was decreased from 34.65 nm to 29.16 nm in CCTO hollow fiber with 1.0 wt.% CCTO. In addition, the tensile strength of HFS was significantly improved from 4.84 MPa to 5.54 MPa and elongation at break was decreased from 6.97 % to 5.09 % which is ascribed to the reduction in porosity. All the results indicated the significant effect of CCTO content on properties of CCTO hollow fibers. The finding in this study could lead to a new direction to enhance the properties of HFS with potential application in membranes.

The effects of the admixtures, erosion age, concentration of sulfate solution, and erosion form of sulfate attack on the mechanical properties of mortar were investigated. Simultaneously, the microstructure, pore characteristics, kinds and morphologies of erosion products of mortar before and after sulfate attacks were performed by Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry (MIP), Environment Scanning Electronic Microscope and Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (ESEM-EDS). In addition, the crystal form and morphology characteristics of crystallization on mortar surfaces attacked by partial immersion form were studied. The results showed that the compressive and flexural strengths of mortar attacked by sulfate for four months decreased with the increase of the replacement of cement with fly ash, and the corresponding strength of mortar containing slag first increased and then decreased. The admixtures can improve the microstructure and mechanical properties of mortar within the replacement ratio of 10%. Although the change laws of the mortar specimens containing different admixtures were similar, the mortar containing slag had an excellent sulfate resistance under the same condition. Compared with the complete immersion form, the strength variation of the mortar containing fly ash attacked by semi-immersion form was less. The porosity and average pore diameter of mortar attacked by sulfate for four months increased, and the percentage of micropore with the pore diameter less than 200 nm increased. Plenty of rod-like and plate-like erosion products were generated in mortar attacked by a sulfate solution with a high concentration. A larger number of fibrous and flocculent crystallization covered the mortar’s surface containing fly ash, but it was a granular and dense crystallization formed on the mortar’s surface containing slag. Much dendritic erosion product was generated in the mortar attacked by semi-immersion form, and ESEM-EDS analysis revealed that it may be scawtite, spurrite, and residue of the decomposed calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) in the inner mortar; however, the crystallization sodium sulfate was crystallized on mortar surface.

This work is devoted to the study of the mechanical properties of porous ceramics based on diatomite. Based on the morphological analysis of the studied samples, the porous structure of ceramics (morphology and average pore diameter) was analyzed and the numerical value of the porosity of the samples (35...50%) was determined. The values of the static (70...115 GPa) and dynamic elastic modulus of the samples (37...50 GPa) were measured experimentally. The dependence of the dynamic modulus of porous diatomite ceramics on porosity is studied: the elastic modulus decreases with increasing porosity of the material. A decrease in the porosity of the material after deformation was also found. The formation of diatomite filaments after deformation of samples by compression at a rate of no more than 8 * 10-4 s-1 was detected.

Desulfurisation of atmospheric distillation gasoline and gas oil was performed by adsorption process on Fe/ bentonite. The adsorbent was characterized by determining the adsorption isotherms, specific surface area, pore volume and average pore diameter. Adsorption experiments of atmospheric distillation gasoline and gas oil were performed in continuous system at 280�320oC, 5 atm and volume hourly space velocities of 1�2 h-1. The efficiency of adsorption on Fe / bentonite was better at desulphurisation of gasoline versus gas oil.

AbstractPraseodymium doped TiO2 nanoparticles were successfully prepared by the sol–gel method and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, N2 adsorption–desorption isotherm, and UV–vis spectroscopy. The effects of the dopant on the crystallite size, specific surface area, average pore diameter, pore volume, and bandgap energy were investigated. The photocatalytic activity of the catalysts was evaluated by bisphenol A degradation and mineralization, which is a representative endocrine disruptor. Furthermore, under visible light irradiation the Pr-modified TiO2 photocatalysts exhibited higher photocatalytic efficiency than unmodified TiO2. When praseodymium was loaded (1.0–5.0%) onto the surface of TiO2, the rates of degradation and mineralization were increased 3–5 times.

AbstractPorous low dielectric films containing nano pores (∼20Å) with low dielectric constant (<2.2), have been prepared by using various kinds of cyclodextrin derivatives as porogenic materials. The pore structure such as pore size and interconnectivity can be controlled by changing functional groups of the cyclodextrin derivatives. We found that mechanical properties of porous low-k thin film prepared with mCSSQ (modified cyclic silsesquioxane) precursor and cyclodextrin derivatives were correlated with the pore interconnection length. The longer the interconnection length of nanopores in the thin film, the worse the mechanical properties of the thin film (such as hardness and modulus) even though the pore diameter of the films were microporous (∼2nm).

Through the measured effective diffusion coefficients of Dagang vacuum residue supercritical fluid extraction and fractionation (SFEF) fractions in FCC catalysts and SiO2model catalysts, the relation between pore size of catalyst and effective diffusion coefficient was researched and the restricted diffusion factor was calculated. The restricted diffusion factor in FCC catalysts is less than 1 and it is 1~2 times larger in catalyst with polystyrene (PS) template than in conventional FCC catalyst without template, indicating that the diffusion of SFEF fractions in the two FCC catalysts is restricted by the pore. When the average molecular diameter is less than 1.8 nm, the diffusion of SFEF fractions in SiO2model catalyst which average pore diameter larger than 5.6 nm is unrestricted. The diffusion is restricted in the catalyst pores of less than 8 nm for SFEF fractions which diameter more than 1.8 nm. The tortuosity factor of SiO2model catalyst is obtained to be 2.87, within the range of empirical value. The effective diffusion coefficient of the SFEF fractions in SiO2model catalyst is two orders of magnitude larger than that in FCC catalyst with the same average pore diameter. This indicate that besides the ratio of molecular diameter to the pore diameter λ, the effective diffusion coefficient is also closely related to the pore structure of catalyst. Because SiO2model catalyst has uniform pore size, the diffusion coefficient can be precisely correlated with pore size of catalyst, so it is a good model material for catalyst internal diffusion investigation.

Voids are inevitable in the fabrication of fiber reinforced composites and have a detrimental impact on mechanical properties of composites. Different void contents were acquired by applying different vacuum bag pressures. Ultrasonic inspection and ablation density method were adopted to measure the ultrasonic characteristic parameters and average porosity, the characterization of voids' distribution, shape and size were carried out through metallographic analysis. Effects of void content on the tensile, flexural and interlaminar shear properties and the ultrasonic characteristic parameters were discussed. The results showed that, as vacuum bag pressure went from -50kPa to -98kPa, the voids content decreased from 4.36 to 0.34, the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient decreased, but the mechanical strengths all increased.

ABSTRACTNanorods/nanoparticles TiO2 with mesoporous structure were synthesized by hydrothermal method at 150 °C for 20 h. The samples characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, SAED, HRTEM, and BET surface area. The nanorods had diameter about 10-20 nm and the lengths of 100-200 nm, the nanoparticles had diameter about 5-10 nm. The prepared material had average pore diameter about 7-12 nm. The BET surface area and pore volume of the sample are about 203 m2/g and 0.655 cm3/g, respectively. The nanorods/nanoparticles TiO2 with mesoporous structure showed higher photocatalytic activity (I3− concentration) than the nanorods TiO2, nanofibers TiO2, mesoporous TiO2, and commercial TiO2 (ST-01, P-25, JRC-01, and JRC-03). The solar energy conversion efficiency (η) of the cell using nanorods/nanoparticles TiO2 with mesoporous structure was about 7.12 % with Jsc of 13.97 mA/cm2, Voc of 0.73 V and ff of 0.70; while η of the cell using P-25 reached 5.82 % with Jsc of 12.74 mA/cm2, Voc of 0.704 V and ff of 0.649.
