Preparation and Characteristic of Composites with Wheat Straw Woodceramic / Attapulgite

Abstract:

This paper mainly introduces that the wheat straw, attapulgite and phenolic resin, curing agent respectively usded as raw materials and the auxiliary materials , and those were finally prepared as a new composite carbon material through the processes of mixing, drying ,hot pressing, as well as high temperature sintering. The different sintering temperatures and different ratios of different materials were fabricated, then the material physical strength, density, porosity, strength, resistivity and other properties were tested. After which, the performance, formation mechanism and formation law were analyzed ,the effect of the choice and ratio materials and the temperature to the preparation as well as the properties of composite materials were preliminarily discussed, Identified as wheat straw: attapulgite = 2: 1; 3: 1, a temperature of 700 to 800 DEG C when all the material physical properties of ideal.. This experiment showed that wheat straw as raw materials for preparing attapulgite feasibility. At the same time, the presented work also opens up new research directions to the reuse utilization of wheat straw ,the application of attapulgite as well as research of woodceramics composites.
