Trade Off

The axial fan blades used in underground mines are usually manufactured in AlSi12CuMgNi alloy (EN AC 48000). They must have a high mechanical strength to withstand the stresses resulting from the rotation speed of the rotor and a high resistance to erosive wear caused by suspended particles from underground mining and transport operations. The aim of this paper is to determine the most suitable thermal treatment to simultaneously improve their mechanical strength and erosive wear resistance. To this end, two solution treatments at 525 °C with cooling in water were analysed, as well as several ageing times at 170 °C. The crystalline phases present in the as-cast state were quantified by X-ray diffraction following quenching and different ageing processes. Furthermore, erosion wear resistance was measured by means of compressed air blasting with corundum particles according to ASTM G76 (2004). The highest wear resistance was obtained in the as-cast state using gravity die casting, with the presence of Al4Cu2Mg8Si7 and Al3CuNi. This wear resistance was higher than that obtained after the ageing treatment. However, a trade-off between mechanical strength and wear resistance was observed after 12 h ageing, where the hardness obtained exceeded 160 HV and the wear resistance became similar to that obtained in the as-cast state.

Abstract The effects of addition treated FGD sludge in non-stoichiometric cordierite, by benefiting from its high mechanical strength and good thermal performance, can hold promise for more practical applications of non-stoichiometric cordierite. Treated FGD sludge waste from borosilicate glass industrial were used as a flux to reduce the sintering temperature of cordierite. Cordierite ceramics were prepared using silica (SiO2), alumina (Al2O3), talc, kaolin, magnesia (MgO) and treated FGD sludge via solid-state reaction method. The cordierite were prepared by adjusting the ratio of FGD sludge and magnesia in the cordierite composition, respectively. 4 composition of cordierite with 0%, 1.5%, 3.0% and 4.5% of FGD sludge were prepared to obtain the formation of α-cordierite that can be determine by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Porosity, density, shrinkage and flexural strength for each of cordierite composition were determined to obtain the best composition of treated FGD sludge required for sintering aids of cordierite. Only FGD 3.0% able to synthesis pure α-cordierite while FGD 1.5 % shows an improvement in both porosity and density. The increasing amount of treated FGD sludge lead to decreasing in mechanical strength of cordierite ceramic due to porous formation.

Bismuth telluride material was fabricated using hot extrusion. The crystal structure was identified by X-ray diffraction and Scanning electron microscopy. The oriented texture in extrusion direction was formed. All the samples showed high mechanical strength. The thermoelectric properties were determined by measuring electrical resistivity, Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity. The influence of extrusion temperature on the thermoelectric performence was studied. The variation of figure with temperature was also studied. The oriented texture seems promising to improve thermoelectric properties and mechanical strength.

AbstractThe relevance of CO2 emissions from geological sources to the atmospheric carbon budget is becoming increasingly recognized. Although geogenic gas migration along faults and in volcanic zones is generally well studied, short-term dynamics of diffusive geogenic CO2 emissions are mostly unknown. While geogenic CO2 is considered a challenging threat for underground mining operations, mines provide an extraordinary opportunity to observe geogenic degassing and dynamics close to its source. Stable carbon isotope monitoring of CO2 allows partitioning geogenic from anthropogenic contributions. High temporal-resolution enables the recognition of temporal and interdependent dynamics, easily missed by discrete sampling. Here, data is presented from an active underground salt mine in central Germany, collected on-site utilizing a field-deployed laser isotope spectrometer. Throughout the 34-day measurement period, total CO2 concentrations varied between 805 ppmV (5th percentile) and 1370 ppmV (95th percentile). With a 400-ppm atmospheric background concentration, an isotope mixing model allows the separation of geogenic (16–27%) from highly dynamic anthropogenic combustion-related contributions (21–54%). The geogenic fraction is inversely correlated to established CO2 concentrations that were driven by anthropogenic CO2 emissions within the mine. The described approach is applicable to other environments, including different types of underground mines, natural caves, and soils.

The Moment

Electroconductive hydrogels with stimuli-free self-healing and self-recovery (SELF) properties and high mechanical strength for wearable strain sensors is an area of intensive research activity at the moment. Most electroconductive hydrogels, however, consist of static bonds for mechanical strength and dynamic bonds for SELF performance, presenting a challenge to improve both properties into one single hydrogel. An alternative strategy to successfully incorporate both properties into one system is via the use of stiff or rigid, yet dynamic nano-materials. In this work, a nano-hybrid modifier derived from nano-chitin coated with ferric ions and tannic acid (TA/Fe@ChNFs) is blended into a starch/polyvinyl alcohol/polyacrylic acid (St/PVA/PAA) hydrogel. It is hypothesized that the TA/Fe@ChNFs nanohybrid imparts both mechanical strength and stimuli-free SELF properties to the hydrogel via dynamic catecholato-metal coordination bonds. Additionally, the catechol groups of TA provide mussel-inspired adhesion properties to the hydrogel. Due to its electroconductivity, toughness, stimuli-free SELF properties, and self-adhesiveness, a prototype soft wearable strain sensor is created using this hydrogel and subsequently tested.

Calcareous sand, as a blow-fill or construction material, is widely used in island and reef construction projects in marine environments after treatment. When microorganism-induced mineralization is used to strengthen calcareous sand, salinity and other conditions in the marine environment will adversely affect microorganisms or their mineralization process. For this reason, the two environmental conditions created by deionized water and simulated seawater were introduced to explore their effects on the growth and urease activity of Sporosarcina pasteurii. Then, the changes in the permeability and mechanical strength of calcareous sand under different mineralization methods were compared by one-dimensional sand column tests. Finally, the reinforcement mechanism was compared and analyzed based on the results of scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction tests. The results show that Sporosarcina pasteurii can induce carbonate and phosphate precipitation and mineralization to strengthen calcareous sand in simulated seawater. The mineralized products greatly reduce the permeability of calcareous sand and significantly improve the mechanical strength by wrapping calcareous sand particles, filling water seepage channels and cementing adjacent particles. The reinforcement effect of carbonate mineralization is better than that of phosphate mineralization, but phosphate mineralization has less impact on the environment during the treatment process.
