This paper, from the point of view of improving compactness of density and crystal water content of radiation-proof concrete, using magnesite with high crystal water content as aggregate and alkaline potential water as mixing water, prepared ordinary density radiation-proof concrete and studied its mechanical properties, resistivity and pore structure. The results show that, compared to base ordinary concrete, the prepared concrete has better 28d compressive strength and resistivity, overall porosity decreases by 17%, and pore gradation at all ages improves significantly. It is indicated that the prepared magnesite aggregate radiation concrete has good density and durability, improves concrete radiation protection performance.

The long-term operation of high-speed railway leads to remarkable issues in ballast mechanical degradation and track irregularity. Particularly, in mainline of rail structure, the required time for ballast layer maintenance is strictly short. To systematically cope with this problem, a comprehensive study was proposed to develop a new cement asphalt mortar (CAM) stabilized ballast method. This solution is expected to improve the ballast structural durability with fast application time. However, the engineer properties of CAM paste with different level of initial mixing water as well as the influencing mechanisms are not clearly understood. In this work, the effects of initial mixing water and emulsifier on the mechanical performance of CAM are mainly discussed. The characteristics of the mortar were determined by conducting the flowability test, mixing stability test, and unconfined compressive strength (UCS) test. The test results revealed that the initial mixing water plays an important role in both fresh and hardened stage of CAM, especially the demulsification process of asphalt emulsion. Meanwhile, the emulsifier imposed a critical effect on the strength development of CAM mixture.

The mold bag cement soil was used to be as the material of dike core while building cofferdam. So the engineering characteristics of cement soil with low mix additions were analyzed in this paper. It was pointed out the unconfined compressive strength of cement soil is mainly related to the property of soil, water content, cement mixing content and degree of mixing uniformity, but has little to do with curing condition, cement adding way and the property of mixing water.

The article presents laboratory tests on the impact of the mixing water content used in the preparation of fresh mortar on the flexural and compressive strength of one of the dry-mix mortars produced by a leading European producer and dedicated to bricklaying with clinker elements. The development of these parameters in relation to curing time was also analyzed. The mortar samples were prepared from a factory-made mortar mix using 4.0 L (the value recommended by the mortar manufacturer), 4.5 L, and 5 L of water per 25 kg bag of ready-made, pre-mixed dry mortar mix. All samples were tested in five series after 5, 9, 14, 21, and 28 days of sample curing. The results of these tests showed that the use of 6 and 18% more mixing water than recommended by the manufacturer (4.5 and 5 L per bag) adversely affected the basic mechanical parameters of the tested mortar. Moreover, it was found that the highest compressive strength values were obtained after 21 days of curing and not after 28 days as usual. It was also found that hardening time and higher than recommended water content adversely affected the bending strength of the mortar.

In this study, the feasibility of ternary mobile phases was examined in a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-based analysis of carbonyl compounds (CCs). To test the performance of different ternary phases, the liquid phase standards containing a 15 aldehyde/ketone-DNPH(o) mix were analyzed through a series of five-point calibration experiments. For this comparison, three types of ternary mobile phases were prepared initially by mixing water (W) with two of the following three organic solvents: isopropanol (I), methanol (M), and tetrahydrofuran (T). The resulting three types of ternary phases (named as WIM, WTM, and WIT) were tested and evaluated in relation to the water content or in terms of methanol-to-water ratio (M/W). The results derived by the three ternary phases revealed that the optimal resolution was attained near maximum water content, while those of WIT consistently suffered from poor resolution problems. The relative performances of WIM and WTM phases, if assessed by three key operating parameters (sensitivity, retention time, and resolution), were found to be reliable for most selected CCs with the decreasing M/W ratio.

Analyses of ultrathin cryosections are generally performed after freeze-drying because the presence of water renders the specimens highly susceptible to radiation damage. The water content of a subcellular compartment is an important quantity that must be known, for example, to convert the dry weight concentrations of ions to the physiologically more relevant molar concentrations. Water content can be determined indirectly from dark-field mass measurements provided that there is no differential shrinkage between compartments and that there exists a suitable internal standard. The potential advantage of a more direct method for measuring water has led us to explore the use of electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) for characterizing biological specimens in their frozen hydrated state.We have obtained preliminary EELS measurements from pure amorphous ice and from cryosectioned frozen protein solutions. The specimens were cryotransfered into a VG-HB501 field-emission STEM equipped with a 666 Gatan parallel-detection spectrometer and analyzed at approximately −160 C.

Recent advances in rapid-freezing and cryosectioning techniques coupled with use of the quantitative signals available in the scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) can provide us with new methods for determining the water distributions of subcellular compartments. The water content is an important physiological quantity that reflects how fluid and electrolytes are regulated in the cell; it is also required to convert dry weight concentrations of ions obtained from x-ray microanalysis into the more relevant molar ionic concentrations. Here we compare the information about water concentrations from both elastic (annular dark-field) and inelastic (electron energy loss) scattering measurements.In order to utilize the elastic signal it is first necessary to increase contrast by removing the water from the cryosection. After dehydration the tissue can be digitally imaged under low-dose conditions, in the same way that STEM mass mapping of macromolecules is performed. The resulting pixel intensities are then converted into dry mass fractions by using an internal standard, e.g., the mean intensity of the whole image may be taken as representative of the bulk water content of the tissue.
