In this paper,based on the influences of conventional working performance indicators such as fluidity on printability,two quantitative indicators of extrusion uniformity and cumulative deformation rate were proposed to evaluate the printability of 3D printing materials,and the relationship between conventional working performance indicators and printing quality was established under experimental conditions. The results show that the extrusion uniformity of 3D printing mortar increases first and then decreases with the increase of fluidity,and decreases with the increase of dynamic yield stress. The cumulative deformation rate decreases with the increase of height retention rate and decreases with the increase of static yield stress. Under the conditions of this test parameters,when the extrusion uniformity is less than 3.5%,the cumulative deformation rate is not more than 6%,the dynamic yield stress is 200～800 Pa,and the static yield stress is 1 800～3 300 Pa,the number of printing layers of mortar is higher (not less than 30 layers),and the printability is better..

In this study,gangue aggregate is used to partially or completely replace (mass fraction of 0%,50% and 100%) nutural sand in 3D printing mortar,and the effect of gangue aggregate addition on the the rheological model,rheological properties,printability,and mechanical properties of 3D printing mortar was systematically examined. The results reveal that,the addition of coal gangue reduces the mechanical properties of 3D printing mortar,but when the coal gangue content is 100%,the compressive strength at 28 d still exceeds 30 MPa,meeting the requirements for mechanical properties. The rheological properties of 3D printing mortar mixed with gangue aggregate conform to the modified Bingham model. Both static yield stress and dynamic yield stress increase proportionally with higher gangue doping. Notably,when the gangue doping is 100%,the growth rate of time-dependent static yield stress is fast,while the growth rates of time-dependent flowability and time-dependent dynamic yield stress are slow. This indicates that the introduction of gangue significantly improves the printability of 3D printing mortar..

Comparative analysis was carried out on the ultimate load,relative slip between rebar and mortar matrix,and failure modes of different specimens. The results show that when the printing bar is perpendicular to the rebar,the best bonding effect is achieved using the rebar embedding method. The ultimate load of vertically printed embedded rebar specimens is 58.30% higher than that of pre-embedded rebar specimens. Under the rebar embedding method,the corresponding slip value of the ultimate load increases. Additionally,with the increase of the bond length,the ultimate load increases,but the increase becomes less significant when the bond length exceeds 7,and the failure mode changes from splitting failure to rebar pullout. The study indicates that reinforcement with rebar embedding can significantly improve the bond performance between 3D printed mortar and rebar and enhance the deformation capacity of the specimens..

The existing technology mostly uses organic thickeners to regulate its working performance,but there are problems such as reduced strength and high cost. This article selected three inorganic thickeners,namely attapulgite,diatomaceous earth,and sodium based bentonite,to study and compare the working performance and mechanical properties of 3D printed cement-based materials under different thickener dosages.

ZHANG Zhaorui, LUO Surong, and LIN Xin
3D printed cement-based materials decreases interstrip contact surface properties due to the stack molding process. Metakaolin can reduce porosity and improve mechanical property,but its high water demand cause water loss on the surface of printing strip,and the interlayer bonding performance decline. Limestone powder 3D printed cement-based materials decreases interstrip contact surface properties due to the stack molding process. Metakaolin can reduce porosity and improve mechanical property,but its high water demand cause water loss on the surface of printing strip,and the interlayer bonding performance decline. Limestone powder has a dilution effect,which can improve the high water demand of metakaolin. The influences of metakaolin and mixed limestone powder on anisotropic performance of 3D printed cement-based materials were studied,and the mechanism from a microscopic perspective was explained. The results show that the optimal mass content of metakaolin is 12%,and the optimal mixing mass ratio is m(metakaolin)∶m(limestone powder) is 2∶1. After adding metakaolin,the fluidity of 3D printed cement-based materials decreases significantly,the fluidity of mixed limestone powder increases. The compressive strength of 3D printed test block is characterized by X>Z>Y>molding,and the variation pattern of flexural strength in different directions is basically the same as the compressive strength,with anisotropic characteristics..

The effect of different metakaolin (MK) content on the properties of 3D printing light burned magnesia-based magnesium phosphate cement was investigated,and combined with XRD and SEM test to further analyze the influence of MK content on the hydration products and crystal appearance of light burnt magnesia-based magnesium phosphate cement. The results show that the setting time and mechanical properties of 3D printing light burnt magnesia-based magnesium phosphate cement increase first and then decrease with the increase of MK content. When MK replaces 4% to 6% of the total mass of magnesia and potassium dihydrogen phosphate,the addition of MK effectively improves the printing performance of light burnt magnesia-based magnesium phosphate cement paste. At this time,the light burned magnesia-based magnesium phosphate cement has good extrusion performance,construction performance and mechanical properties,which can meet the application requirements of 3D printing. The addition of MK does not change the crystal composition of the hydration products of light burnt magnesia-based magnesium phosphate cement,but produces a large number of amorphous amorphous hydration products,which can further fill the gap between hydration products and particles and improve the compactness of structure..

In order to solve the problem of poor water resistance of powder bed 3D printing magnesium phosphate cement,the optimization of water resistance of powder bed 3D printing magnesium phosphate cement-based materials was carried out. The influence of M/P molar ratio on water resistance of materials was studied,and M/P molar ratio was optimized. The effect of fly ash incorporation on the printing performance and water resistance of powder bed 3D printing magnesium phosphate cement-based materials was studied,and the mechanism of fly ash improvement on water resistance of printing materials was revealed by combining the microscopic characterization methods. The results show that the compressive strength of powder bed 3D printing magnesium phosphate cement-based materials decreases under water curing condition. With the increase of M/P molar ratio,the water resistance of specimen is improved accordingly. The addition of fly ash can effectively improve the density and printing accuracy of the powder bed,increase the amount of hydration products,make the microstructure more dense,and improve the water resistance of specimen. By adding 20% (mass fration) fly ash,the compressive strength of materials increases by 8900% at most after 28 d of water immersion,which provides strong support for improving the water resistance of powder bed 3D printing magnesium phosphate cement-based materials and expanding the application of cement-based powder 3D printing technology..

In order to improve this problem,attapulgite was used as an admixture in this paper. The effect of attapulgite clay (ATP) content (0%,1%,2% and 3%,mass fraction) on the working performance and compressive strength of high-volume fly ash 3D printing cement-based materials was studied. The results show that ATP adsorbs a large amount of water in slurry and fills the voids of larger cement particles,which reduces the fluidity of slurry and increases the strength and yield stress of slurry. When the content of ATP is 1%~3%,the extrudability and buildability of sample are good. With the increase of ATP content,the compressive strength of the printed test block curing for 7 and 70 d in X,Y and Z directions is higher than that of control group. When the curing time is 7 d,the compressive strength of sample with 3% ATP in Z direction is the largest,which is 14.0 MPa. When the curing time is 70 d,the compressive strength of sample with 2% ATP in Y direction is the largest,reaching 24.1 MPa..

To further improve the bearing capacity of 3D printed concrete structures,a synchronous multi-cables reinforcement method of 3D printed concrete was proposed. Optimizing the multi-cables synchronous embedding process,pull-out tests were carried out to study the bonding characteristics between multi-cables and matrix material. Four-point bending tests were carried out study the effect of reinforcement ratio on the bending performance,and the formula for calculating normal section capacity and oblique section capacity of multi-cables reinforced 3D printed concrete beams was established. The results show that the pull-out of micro-cable damages the matrix material,then reduces the bonding strength between the remaining micro-cables and the matrix material,and decreasing range increases with the decrease of the micro-cables spacing. The maximum decrease is 43.7% when the micro-cable spacing decreases to 4 mm. When the reinforcement ratio of specimen increases from 0.17% to 0.75%,the ultimate bearing capacity of specimen increases by 220.0% under bending load. The established calculation formula has good accuracy for predicting the normal section capacity and oblique section capacity of multi-cables reinforced 3D printed concrete beams..

In order to investigate the effect of printed interfaces and water binder ratio on the carbonation resistance of 3D printed concrete,the carbonation behavior of 3D printed concrete with three water binder ratios along X,Y,and Z directions was studied through carbonation tests. Based on mercury intrusion testing and X-CT scanning,the pore characteristics and distribution patterns in 3D printed concrete were obtained,and the change mechanism of carbonation resistance of 3D printed concrete was explained from a microscopic level. The research results indicate that pores are closely related to the carbonation behavior of 3D printed concrete. The interstrip and interlayer interfaces generate more pores due to the stacking of stripes,resulting in faster diffusion of CO2 and greater carbonation depth at these two positions. Therefore,the carbonation resistance of printed concrete exhibits significant anisotropy due to the influences of interfaces. The carbonization resistance of matrix material is better than that of interlayer position and the carbonization resistance of interlayer position is better than that of interstrip position. The lower the water binder ratio is,the better the carbonization resistance of material is. When CO2 diffuses in concrete,the uncarbonized islands are formed in printed concrete due to the effect of large pores between layers..

A numerical simulation method for anisotropy of 3D printed concrete (3DPC) based on interface model was proposed by applying micromechanics theory of composite materials. This method quantitatively revealed the mechanical behavior of layer/filament interface and its influence on anisotropic elastic constants of 3DPC. BA numerical simulation method for anisotropy of 3D printed concrete (3DPC) based on interface model was proposed by applying micromechanics theory of composite materials. This method quantitatively revealed the mechanical behavior of layer/filament interface and its influence on anisotropic elastic constants of 3DPC. By combining interface elements and continuum elements,the interface sliding-cracking behavior and mechanical properties of printed filament were simulated. Uniaxial compression,splitting tension,cross-bonded tension,and inclined shear tests were designed to determine the parameters and corresponding ranges required for model. The research shows that the interface tensile and shear traction-separation curves exhibit a bilinear characteristic,and the strength of filament interface is generally higher than that of layer interface. There is no significant difference in shear behavior in two shear principal directions. The elastic modulus between filament and layer has a linear impact on overall elastic modulus and has an exponential impact on Poisson’s ratio. The shear modulus between filament and layer has a comprehensive impact on overall shear modulus..

However,few investigations focus on the effect of curing conditions on the mechanical properties of 3DCP. This study primarily investigated the influences of different steam curing conditions (temperature rise rate,sustained temperature time and sustained temperature) on the mechanical performance of 3DCP at various curing ages. To identify optimal steam curing conditions,an orthogonal experiment was conducted to study the mechanical anisotropy of printed cementitious material. Moreover,based on laboratory test data,a conditional tabular generative adversarial network (CTGAN) was established for data set augmentation,expanding from 291 to 1 000 data entries. A one-dimensional residual convolutional neural network (1D-Residual CNN) was developed to predict the compressive strength of 3DCP,accompanied by five machine learning (ML) models for comparison. Experimental results indicate that CTGANs data augmentation technique significantly enhanced the predictive accuracy of the 1D-Residual CNN model on the compressive strength of 3DCP,with the highest R2 reaching 0.92..

However,commonly used thickeners are predominantly organic matter,leading to a reduction in the mechanical performance of gypsum. In order to solve this issue,attapulgite clay and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether were compared to test their effects on the workability performance,mechanical performance,and printability of gypsum 3D printing materials. The results show that,attapulgite clay reduces the fluidity of gypsum 3D printing materials and increases dynamic yield stress,similar to hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose ether. The flexural and compressive strength of the material decreases first and then increases as the attapulgite clay content increases,while the flexural and compressive strength of the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether group shows a declining trend. In the actual 3D printing process,the volume stability and open time results of attapulgite clay groups are similar to those of the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether groups,but the actual printing strength is more than 23% higher than that of the hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether groups. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether achieves viscosity enhancement by water absorption and molecular entanglement,whereas attapulgite clay,with its abundant pore structure,thickens the slurry by adsorbing water molecules and gypsum particles through hydrogen bonding and Van der Waals forces..

However,the mechanical properties of SiO2 aerogel are fragile,which makes it difficult to prepare complex and miniature components by traditional manufacturing methods,which greatly hinders the development and application of SiO2 aerogel in the field of heat insulation. In this paper,flexible SiO2 aerogel composites were prepared by 3D printing direct writing technology. By studying the content of different polyvinyl alcohol solutions and sodium stearate,the optimal slurry ratio was found. The thermal conductivity of the printed flexible SiO2 aerogel composites at 100 ℃ is as low as 0.026 W/(m·K),and it has good compression performance,bending performance and hydrophobicity.

In this paper,barium titanate (BaTiO3) piezoelectric ceramics were prepared by digital light processing technology. The effects of green body morphology and sintering temperature on the Stereolithography 3D printing technology has broad application prospects in the preparation of special-shaped piezoelectric ceramics.

The densification mechanism of BaTiO3 In order to improve the comprehensive performance of BaTiO3 piezoelectric ceramics fabricated by additive manufacturing,the slurry shear thinning characteristics and digital light processing (DLP) forming characteristics of BaTiO3 piezoelectric ceramics were studied in this paper. The densification mechanism of BaTiO3 piezoelectric ceramics green body formed by DLP under different sintering temperature conditions was revealed,and the influence of polarization direction on the piezoelectric properties of BaTiO3 ceramics formed by DLP was explored. The results show that the electrical properties of BaTiO3 piezoelectric ceramics fabricated by DLP additive manufacturing can be improved to a certain extent by adjusting the high temperature sintering and polarization process. When the sintering temperature is 1 420 ℃ and the holding time is 2 h,the piezoelectric coefficient d33 is the largest,which is 163.4 pC/N. The sample layers are tightly bonded and the grain size is uniform. When the angle between Z axis and polarization direction is changed from 0° to 90°,the relative dielectric constant εr and d33 are increased by 2937 % and 27.01 %,respectively. When the solid content is 80% (mass fraction),the sintering temperature is 1 420 ℃,and the angle between Z axis and polarization direction is 90°,the sample d33 is the largest,reaching 182.4 pC/N..

By designing and manufacturing suitable TPMS bone scaffold structure,it provides the possibility for the clinical treatment of bone repair,bone replacement and bone healing. Based on the structure parameters of human bone tissue,TPMS scaffolds with three main types of P,G and D and the fusion TPMS scaffolds with different fusion coefficient K values were designed respectively. The ceramic billets were prepared by UV stereophotolithography (SLA),and the molded alumina ceramic scaffolds were obtained through degrease and post-sintering treatment. The results show that: 1) the ceramic bracket has a relatively smooth surface and high molding accuracy,and its overall shape is basically consistent with the design model,and the side surface is slightly rougher than the top surface. 2) Compared with the single-type structure,the fused TPMS structure shows better compressive strength and stress distribution. When the fusion coefficient K=4,the mechanical properties of the P and G fusion scaffold are the best,the compressive strength is 71.72 MPa,and the maximum stress and average stress are 141.90 and 13.214 MPa,respectively. 3) The permeability of fusion structures is weaker than that of single-type structures,and the permeability of scaffolds with different fusion coefficient K values is also different. Combined with numerical simulation and experimental data,when the fusion coefficient K=1 or 2,the permeability of scaffolds with P and G structures and P and D structures is better. In conclusion,when the fusion coefficient K=1,the fusion scaffold with P and G structure has better mechanical properties and permeability,so it is suitable for the structure type of human bone scaffold..

However,the enhancement effect is based on the good dispersion of carbon nanomaterials in the cement. The laCarbon nanomaterials have received extensive research and attention because of unique structure and excellent performance to be used as reinforcing materials to improve the performance of cementitious materials. However,the enhancement effect is based on the good dispersion of carbon nanomaterials in the cement. The large specific surface area and strong intermolecular forces of carbon nanomaterials make them difficult to be dispersed in the cement matrix,and the dispersion effect is difficult to judge. This paper systematically sorts out the mechanism of common carbon nanomaterials agglomeration in cementitious materials,summarizes the dispersion techniques adopted by scholars in recent years,analyses the mechanism,advantages and disadvantages of various dispersion methods in detail,and lists the characterization methods for the dipersion effect of carbon nanomaterials in cementitious material. In the future,the research should focus on the development of more efficient and suitable dispersion methods for industrialized production,and the means of evaluating the real dispersion state of carbon nanomaterials in the cement matrix,which can facilitate the scale-up of nanocarbon-modified cementitious composites for application in real engineering projects..

A binary/ternary cementitious composite system was constructed by using regenerated micropowder-Portland cement-fly ash. The effect of regenerated micropowder content on physical and mechanical properties of mortar test block was studied,and the hydration products and microstructure of mortar test block were investigated by XRD and SEM. The results show that with the increase of regenerated micropowder content,the compressive strength of test block at 3,7 and 28 d decreases,the water demand increases,the fluidity decreases,and the dry shrinkage decreases first and then increases. The drying shrinkage of composite cementitious system mortar test block mixed with regenerated micropowder and fly ash developes rapidly within 7～14 d. With the increase of regenerated micropowder and fly ash content,formation of C-S-H decreases gradually,and the internal pores and cracks of mortar test block increases significantly. The maximum total substitution rate of regenerated micropowder and fly ash to cement is 40%(mass fraction)..

The influence of the proportion changes of FA-GS and LS-GS in system on compactness,workability,and strength of ternary cementitious material powder was studied,and the optimum mix ratio of ternary cementitious system was determined by microstructure analysis. The results show that as the proportion of GS in the two ternary cementitious systems increases,the compactness and flowability of sample slightly decrease,while the compressive strength,flexural strength,and environmental benefits of sample gradually increase. When the mass ratio of FA-GS and LS-GS is both 3∶8,the middle and late strength of mortar samples prepared by the two cementitious systems can be close to or even higher than that of pure cement samples..

At the same time,SEM,XRD and image analysis software were used to characterize the pore structure characteristics of composites. The results show that with the increase of FACs content,the thermal conductivity decreases first and then increases,and the compressive strength increases first and then decreases. When the FACs content is 9.0%(mass fraction),the thermal conductivity of composites is the smallest,which is 0.094 W/(m·K). Under this blending ratio,the 28 d compressive strength is 1.58 MPa,and the dry density is 418.9 kg/m3. When the FACs content is 18.0%,the compressive strength of composites is the best,the 28 d compressive strength is 2.15 MPa,the thermal conductivity is 0.101 W/(m·K),and the dry density is 431.0 kg/m3. With the increase of FACs content,the proportion of pores less than 300 μm in composites increases gradually，and the average pore size shows a decreasing trend..

In order to slove this question,the discrete lattice model was adopted to simulate the pull-out process of single fiber from cementitious matrix using the stepwise method,and the fiber pull-out load-displacement response curve was obtained. The model was verified by the experimental data in the literature,and it is found that the simulation method can simulate the single fiber pull-out process and load-displacement curve. The influences of fiber direction, elastic modulus of fiber and interfacial bond strength on the pull-out load-displacement response curve were investigated using the model. The simulation results can be further used to study the influences of various factors on test results under different boundary conditions. The simulated results can be used to calculate the single-crack fiber bridging relationship of engineered cement-based composite,providing theoretical support for design of high toughness engineering cement-based composites..

The relationship between pore structure and fractal dimension of PVA fiber concrete under the freeze-thaw cycle was revealed. The results show that PVA fiber concrete shows better frost resistance in the pre-freeze-thaw cycle period. The number and percentage of medium pores (100＜r≤1 000 nm) and large pores (r＞1 000 nm) increase,which weaken the frost resistance of PVA fiber concrete. The PVA fiber concrete has a certain fractal characteristic,and the fractal dimension Dmax increases before five times freeze-thaw cycles and decreases with the increase of freeze-thaw cycles times..

The results show that with the increase of fiber content,fluidity and pore passing ability of SCC decrease,and the segregation resistance of SCC is improved. The improvement effect of SF on 7 d compressive strength of SCC is more significant than that of PAN. The mixed fiber has a more obvious effect on compressive strength of early SCC than single-doped fiber,and the mixed fiber can also effectively improve the toughness and ductility of SCC..

Micro-structure analysis of the hardened paste was conducted using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results demonstrate that the regression models established using the response surface methodology accurately predict the relationships between various factors and performance parameters,with an accuracy exceeding 95%. Among the factors considered,the water-binder ratio has the most significant impact on the slump and compressive strength,while its influence on the wear loss is relatively minor. Through optimization,the best mix proportion for manufactured sand road concrete is found to be a water-binder ratio of 0.36,a slurry volume fraction of 25% and stone powder content of 10% (by weight). Furthermore,the stone powder content of less than 10% can improve the interface transition zone,contributing to the enhancement of the concrete mechanical properties..

The CO2 uptake percentage and free CaO content of HFA undergone different CO2 mineralization duration were experimentally determined. The influence of CO2-mineralized HFA on hydraTo improve the volume stability and hydration activity of high-calcium fly ash (HFA),CO2 mineralization treatment was applied in this paper. The CO2 uptake percentage and free CaO content of HFA undergone different CO2 mineralization duration were experimentally determined. The influence of CO2-mineralized HFA on hydration heat,mechanical properties and pore structure of cement mortar was investigated. The results show that after 12 h of CO2 mineralization modification treatment,the carbon sequestration of high calcium fly ash exceeds 10% (mass fraction),and the content of free calcium oxide in high calcium fly ash is significantly reduced. As the prolongation of CO2mineralization,the hydration induction period of cement slurry mixed with HFA is shortened,and the early hydration heat release is significantly reduced. CO2 mineralization can also mitigate the adverse impacts of HFA on mechanical strength,as well as improving the pore structure of cement mortar by reducing porosity and volume fraction of large capillary pores. Besides,CO2-mineralized HFA provides more nucleation sites for precipitation of C-S-H,accelerating the early hydration reaction of cement paste..

However,the stability of mineral powder under normal temperature conditions is consistent,and its potential reactivity needs to be activated. Addressing this issue,mThe use of mineral powder to reinforce saline soil effectively enhances the strength of saline soil,and reduces the solubility of saline soil foundations. However,the stability of mineral powder under normal temperature conditions is consistent,and its potential reactivity needs to be activated. Addressing this issue,mineral powder was used as a precursor,and the effect of different proportion of desulfurization gypsum-sodium hydroxide-carbide slag (DG-NaOH-CS,DNC) curing agents on the mechanical properties,durability and micro-mechanisms of mineral powder composite solidified saline soil was investigated. The results show that the optimal mix proportion of desulfurization gypsum,sodium hydroxide,and carbide slag is 6.03∶0.63∶4.24 (mass ratio). Based on this optimal mix proportion,the 28 d unconfined compressive strength mean value of DNC-modified soil is 14.16 MPa,with the response surface model predicted value of 14.08 MPa,indicating good correlation between predicted and experimental values. Compared to the same proportion of cement solidified soil,DNC-modified soil exhibits better compressive strength,resistance to freeze-thaw cycles and resistance to wet-dry cycles. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM),X-ray diffraction (XRD),and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis shows that the DNC curing agent produces a large amount of hydrated calcium silicate (C-S-H),hydrated calcium aluminate (C-A-H),and ettringite (AFt) cementitious materials within the specimen,filling the internal pores of the soil and thereby further enhancing the strength of solidified soil..

Therefore,in this study,three kinds of C/C composites were designed and prepared using the chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) method with matrix carbon: rough layer,smooth layer,and rough layer/isotropic layer band-structured pyrolytic carbon(PyC),respectively. And the microstructures,fracture behaviors,and toughening mechanisms of C/C composites were investigated. The results indicate that the flexural strength of the three C/C composites is 189.1,191.5,and 233.5 MPa,respectively. The C/C composites with rough layer and band-structured carbon matrix are pseudoplastic fractures. In contrast,the C/C composites with smooth layer carbon matrix are brittle fractures. Compared to the C/C composites with rough layer carbon matrix,the C/C composites with band-structured carbon matrix show a significant increase in toughness through interfacial sliding between the different structured pyrolytic carbon,which increases strain amount by about 70%. Therefore,the toughness of C/C composites can be effectively optimized by controlling the parameters of the CVI process to achieve band-structured pyrolytic carbon preparation..

Pressureless sintered ZrB2-SiC ceramics can be prepared as complex shaped component. But they are challenging to densify and have poor anti-ablation resistance. Therefore,there is an urgent need to investigate effective sintering aids to improve the densification of ceramics. ZrB2-SiC ceramics were prepared by pressurePressureless sintered ZrB2-SiC ceramics can be prepared as complex shaped component. But they are challenging to densify and have poor anti-ablation resistance. Therefore,there is an urgent need to investigate effective sintering aids to improve the densification of ceramics. ZrB2-SiC ceramics were prepared by pressureless sintered at 1 850 ℃ for 1 h using CeO2 and MoSi2 as sintering aids. The effects of CeO2 and MoSi2 on sintering properties and anti-ablation resistance of ZrB2-SiC ceramics were investigated. The results show that sintering properties and anti-ablation resistance of ZrB2-SiC ceramics are best when the ratio of CeO2 and MoSi2 in 5% (volume fraction) sintering aid is 1∶1. Sintering aids form a Ce-Mo liquid phase during the sintering process. Ceramic particles are rearranged and mass transferred under the surface tension of the liquid phase. The Ce-Mo liquid phase promotes the formation of sintered necks under capillary forces,filles the interstices of the ceramic particles and reduces the grain boundary energy of the ceramic grains to facilitate the densification process. ZrB2-SiC ceramics are ultimately obtained with an density of 502 g/cm3,a relative density of 8971%,and a Vickers hardness of 14.04 GPa. The actual density and Vickers hardness increases by 53% and 43%,respectively,compared to when no sintering aid is added. During the ablation process,CeO2 and MoSi2 supplemented SiO2 in appropriate amounts to promote self-healing of the glassy phase with suitable viscosity and improve the stability of ZrO2. The mass ablation rate and the line ablation rate are -1.62 mg/s and 0.33 μm/s,respectively..

Organic and inorganic composite silicate thermally conductive insulating coatings were prepared by using high modulus potassium silicate solution as a base material,alumina as a thermally conductive insulating filler,and silica-propylene emulsion and defoamer. The heat conduction behavior of insulating silicate coatingOrganic and inorganic composite silicate thermally conductive insulating coatings were prepared by using high modulus potassium silicate solution as a base material,alumina as a thermally conductive insulating filler,and silica-propylene emulsion and defoamer. The heat conduction behavior of insulating silicate coatings was studied by testing the thermal conductivity,volume resistivity,porosity,pore size distribution and elemental distribution changes of silicate coatings. The results show that the thermal conductivity of silicate insulating coatings is enhanced by appropriately increasing the mass fraction of alumina. The spherical morphology and large particle size of alumina filler are more favourable for the improvement of thermal conductivity of silicate insulating coatings. When the filler is spherical alumina with particle size of 2.9 μm and its mass fraction is 37.5%,the thermal conductivity of coating is up to 1.072 W/(m·K),the volume resistivity is more than 108 Ω·m,and the thermal conductivity and insulating performance of coating reaches the best..

Effective inhibition of alkali melt penetration is helpful to improve the service life of heat treatment equipment,but the method of simply reducing porosity may deteriorate its thermal shock stability. In this paper,the wetting,corrosion and penetration processes of refractories by Na2CO3 melt were studied,and the difference of alkali penetration resistance of different refractories was discussed from the point of view of wettability. Therefore,three types of mullite (high purity sintered mullite,fused mullite and ordinary sintered mullite),andalusite and clay were used as raw materials to prepare refractories by mechanical press forming and high temperature sintering. The alkali corrosion experiment was carried out at 900 ℃ by static crucible method with Na2CO3 as alkali corrosive agent. The phase and microstructure of the specimens before and after alkali corrosion were analyzed by X-ray diffractometer and scanning electron microscope,and the wettability of alkali melt to different substrates was tested. The results show that all materials are not damaged,showing excellent corrosion resistance. The ability of each group of specimens to resist the penetration of Na2CO3 melt is different. The specimens prepared by high purity sintered mullite have the best corrosion and penetration resistance,while the specimens prepared by fused mullite and ordinary sintered mullite have poor penetration resistance,which is related to the wetting ability of Na2CO3 melt to them. In this experiment,the difference of alkali corrosion resistance between refractories is analyzed from the perspective of high temperature wettability,which provided a new idea and theoretical basis for the research and production of aluminum-silicon refractories with excellent corrosion resistance..
