Bamboo Pulp Fabric

Functional fabrics have gained attention as an environmentally-friendly synthesis route. In the current study, novelty bamboo pulp fabrics with thermal conductivity properties were prepared by coating the fabric with graphene and cellulose nanocrystal (G/CNC) solutions. The influences of G and CNC concentrations on properties of fabrics were studied. The viscosities of the G/CNC solutions increased with an increase of G contents. G had an obvious thickening effect. Furthermore, compounded fabrics with different G and CNC contents (GCBPFs) were prepared and extensively characterized in terms of thermal and mechanical properties, and morphology. The ultimate thermal conductivity, bursting strength, and tensile strength of the GCBPF were 0.136 W/m·K, 1.514 MPa, and 25.8 MPa, with 4 wt.% CNC and 3 wt.% G contents, respectively. The results demonstrated that the as-fabricated GCBPFs with favorable thermal conductivity could be applied as a novel fast cooling textile for the clothing industry.

The microstructures, mechanical properties, and thermal conductivity (TC) of Al-2Fe-xCo (x = 0~0.8) alloys in as-cast, homogeneous annealed, and cool rolled states are systematically studied. Results indicate that appropriate Co modification (x ≤ 0.5) simultaneously improves the thermal and mechanical properties of as-cast Al-2Fe alloys. The improvement of TC is attributed to ameliorating the morphology of primary Al3Fe phases from needles to short rods and fine particles, which decreases the scattering probability of free electrons during the electronic transmission. However, further increasing the Co content (x = 0.8) decreases the TC due to the formation of a coarse plate-like Al2FeCo phase. Besides, the thermal conductivity of annealed Al-2Fe-xCo alloys is higher than that of as-cast alloys because of the elimination of lattice defects and spheroidization of Al3Fe phases. After cool rolling with 80 % deformation, thermal conductivity of alloys slightly increases due to the breaking down of Al2FeCo phases. The rolled Al-2Fe-0.3Co alloy exhibits the highest thermal conductivity, which is about 225 W/(m·K), approximately 11 % higher than the as-cast Al-2Fe sample. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and elongation (EL) of as-cast Al-2Fe-0.5Co (UTS: 138 MPa; EL: 22.0 %) are increased by 35 % and 69 %, respectively, compared with those of unmodified alloy (UTS: 102 MPa; EL: 13.0 %).

Purpose The purpose of this study is to increase the thermal and mechanical properties of the photopolymer by filling with the copper powder for the application of rapid tooling. Design/methodology/approach In this study, the photopolymer is filled with the different loading of copper powder for investigating the thermal and mechanical properties of the copper/photopolymer composite. The thermal properties of the copper/photopolymer composite are characterized with the degradation temperature and with the thermal conductivity. The mechanical properties of copper/photopolymer composite are performed with the tensile strength and hardness testing. Moreover, the copper/photopolymer composite is imaged by using a scanning electron microscopic with energy dispersive spectroscopy. Findings The tensile strength of the copper/photopolymer composite is increased over 45 per cent at 20 phr copper loading. The hardness of the photopolymer has a negative correlation with the increasing copper loading and is decreased about 28.5 per cent at 100 phr copper loading. The degradation temperature of the copper/photopolymer composite is increased about 7.2 per cent at 70 phr copper loading. The thermal conductivity of the copper/photopolymer composite is increased over 65 per cent at 100 phr copper loading. Originality/value The photopolymer used in rapid prototyping system is generally fragile and has poor thermal properties. This study improves the thermal and mechanical properties of the photopolymer with the copper filling which has been never investigated in the field of rapid prototyping applications.

5083 aluminum alloy, due to moderate strength, good thermal conductivity and formability, is an ideal structural material for car production. Influence of cold rolling process on microstructures and mechanical properties of 5083 aluminum alloys is significant and research hotspots. In this paper, cold deformation and annealing processes on grains, tensile properties and anisotropies of 5083 alloy sheets were studied. Results showed that incomplete recrystallization occured on 5083 alloy sheets when annealing temperature was at 300°C. The degree of recrystallization increased slightly with the cold deformation raised from 30% to 50% and varied slightly with prolonged annealing time from 2h to 4h. Furthermore, fully recrystallization occurred on 5083 alloy sheets at the annealing temperature above 320°C. Tensile strength of 5083 alloy sheets reduced significantly when the annealing temperature was raised from 300°C to 320°C, while it varied slightly when the annealing temperature continued to rise to 380°C.

Gas Pressure Sintering

Dense β–Si3N4 ceramics were fabricated from α–Si3N4 raw powder by gas-pressure sintering at 1900 °C for 12 h under a nitrogen pressure of 1 MPa, using four different kinds of additive compositions: Yb2O3–MgO, Yb2O3–MgSiN2, Y2O3–MgO, and Y2O3–MgSiN2. The effects of additive composition on the microstructure and thermal and mechanical properties of β–Si3N4 ceramics were investigated. It was found that the replacement of Yb2O3 by Y2O3 has no significant effect on the thermal conductivity and fracture toughness, but the replacement of MgO by MgSiN2 leads to an increase in thermal conductivity from 97 to 113 Wm-1K-1and fracture toughness from 8 to 10 MPa m1/2, respectively. The enhanced thermal conductivity of the MgSiN2-doped materials is attributed to the purification of β–Si3N4 grain and increase of Si3N4–Si3N4 contiguity, resulting from the enhanced growth of large elongated grains. The improved fracture toughness of the MgSiN2-doped materials is attributed to the increase of grain size and fraction of large elongated grains. However, the same thermal conductivity between the Yb2O3- and Y2O3-doped materials is related to not only their similar microstructures, but also the similar abilities of removing oxygen impurity in Si3N4 lattice between Yb2O3 and Y2O3. The same fracture toughness between the Yb2O3- and Y2O3-doped materials is consistent with their similar microstructures. This work implies that MgSiN2 is an effective sintering aid for developing not only high thermal conductivity (>110 Wm−1K−1) but also high fracture toughness (>10 MPa m1/2) of Si3N4 ceramics.

The use of borax solution as a preservative in wood and bamboo materials is well known in the community. A borax solution is an environmentally friendly liquid that can dissolve in water, so it is suitable to be used as a preservative within cold or hot soaking techniques. The ability of borax to resist insects and fungus attacks on bamboo has been proven, but the effect of the solution on the strength of bamboo must also be investigated. This study conducts to investigate the effects of borax and its additives as preservative solutions to the mechanical properties of bamboos. The bamboos preservations were conducted by cold conditions of immersion, while the mechanical properties were performed to understand the effects of preservatives. The result of this study indicated that 30% to 50% borax in the preservative solution is sufficient to provide significant increase in strength for compressive strength, tensile strength, and bending strength of bamboo specimen. From this study, the use of borax solution in preserving the bamboos materials improved the quality of bamboos based on its mechanical properties.

The aim of the research presented in the article was to check the differences in the hygro-thermal and mechanical properties of hemp-lime composites with different shives fractions, depending on the direction of mixture compaction. The research part of the paper presents the preparation method and investigation on the composites. Thermal conductivity, capillary uptake, as well as flexural and compressive strengths were examined. Additionally, an analysis of the temperature distribution in the external wall insulated with the tested composites was performed. The results confirm that the direction of compaction influences the individual properties of the composites in a similar way, depending on the size of the shives. The differences are more pronounced in the case of the composite containing longer fractions of shives. Both thermal conductivity of the material and the capillary uptake ability are lower in the parallel direction of the compaction process. Composites exhibit greater stiffness, but they fail faster with increasing loads when loaded in the direction perpendicular to compaction.

The current paper deals with investigating the effect of two different fillers on the thermal and mechanical characteristics of epoxy-based composite. The filler used throughout the study are: charcoal and Pyrex, both of them are different in nature and have not been investigated thoroughly or even compared fairly in terms of their effect on polymer matrix. Further, they can be considered as a cheap filler, charcoal can be obtained from a simple pyrolysis process of plants (charcoal) and Pyrex waste can be collected easily. Both types are added to the selected matrix with volume percent ranged from 10 to 60 with increments of 10. To ensure a fair comparison, the particle size is fixed (is about 1.7 micrometer). The results showed that the epoxy thermal conductivity has enhanced by about two orders of magnitudes over the studied range of filler. In terms of mechanical properties, the charcoal improves the tensile strength about 84% at 60% volume fraction while the Pyrex effect is about 40% at the same filler level. On the contrast, the results of compressive strength do not show an appreciable improvement overall. It decreases by about 12% at 60% volume fraction of charcoal while increases about the same percent with Pyrex at the same filler level.
