Abstract: The impact performance of PE can be greatly enhanced by the use of functionalized conch powder, while maintaining high tensile strength thus giving this study high potentiality for its practical applications. The conch powder was treated by titanate coupling agent NDZ-201 before use and the influence of different proportions of conch powder on the mechanical properties of PE/conch powder composite is discussed in this article. The impact strength has a maximum value of 63.4kJ/m2 and the frictional loss records a minimum of 4.27×10-1mm3/(Nm)-1 and 42.2% lower than that of pure PE.

Abstract: The composites consisting of multi–walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) core and polyaniline (PANI) shell were prepared in aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid, and then a de–doping process was achieved through a simple ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) treatment. The influences of NH4OH treatment on the morphology, microstructure and thermal stability of the as–prepared composites were studied. It is found that after the removal of hydrochloric acid (HCl) as a volatile dopant and the low molecular weight components, structural stability of the treated composite could be achieved, leading to a significant enhancement on thermal properties.

Abstract: A conductive PANI/CIP composite with core/shell structure was prepared by in-situ polymerization of Aniline(Ani). In order to reduce the acid corrosion on carbonyl iron powders(CIP) in polymerization of Ani, the surface of CIP was modified by (3-aminopropyl)-triethoxysilane (APTES) before the polymerization. The influences of modification on Ani polymerization, the morphology changes of core/shell structure and conductivity of PANI/CIP composites were characterised and discussed. The results show that after CIP modified by APTES, the reaction process of Ani polymerization is more stable; the PANI particles on the surface of CIP are smaller, and more uniform and more compact; The coating effect of PANI on the surface of CIP is significantly improved; The composite conductivity changes slightly with the modification.

Abstract: In this paper, a finite element model of a composite gas cylinder was established by ABAQUS finite element software, with consideration that both heads were helically wound and their wound angle and wound thickness varied with different parallel circle radius. Stress of the composite gas cylinder and PEEQ of its liner under different working conditions after autofrettage treatment were studied, the stress distribution was assessed by the DOT CFFC standard and the effective range of autofrettage treatment was confirmed. This finite element analysis method may be referable to the design and inspection of composite gas cylinders.

Abstract: A series of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composites containing polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) were produced by bulk polymerization. The morphology, thermal and mechanical properties of the composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetric analyses (TGA) and dynamic mechanical analyses (DMA). Results show that the octa(3-chloropropyl)-POSS (ocp-POSS) and trisilanolphenyl-POSS (triol-POSS) have high compatibility with PMMA and can be uniformly dispersed into PMMA matrix. The separate incorporation of these two types of POSS contributes to the improvement of thermal stability of PMMA composites. When the content of POSS was 7.5 wt%, the thermal decomposition temperatures (5% mass loss) of PMMA composites with ocp-POSS and triol-POSS were increased by about 104 °C and 130 °C, respectively. The increase of triol-POSS content in the PMMA matrix gave slight enhanced storage modulus before glass transition.

Abstract: To prepare shape-stabilized phase change material applicable in digester insulation, firstly to prepare composite phase change material by sol-gel method. Shape material was obtained by sol-gel with TEOS, in which phase change material was lauric acid/cetyl alcohol binary eutectic phase change materials. T he result s showed that the descending order of the influencing factors: ester-PCM ratio, ester -water ratio, pH, the react ion temperature, aging temperature. The best technology is: the ester -water ratio1:8, ester-PCM ratio1:2.3, pH3, aging temperature 85°C, the react ion temperature 60°C. When composite phase change material was prepared with the best technology, phase transition temperature of composite phase change material is 34°C, phase change enthalpy can reach 122.4J/g when the mass fraction of phase change material is 64%.

Abstract: In this study, the covered yarn, composed of stainless steel wires as the core and bamboo charcoal roving as the sheath, is made on a ring spinning machine and then knitted into bamboo charcoal/stainless steel fabric by an automatic 14-gauge horizontal knitting machine. According to the test results, both far infrared emissivity and the anion count of bamboo charcoal/stainless steel fabric increase with an increase in bamboo charcoal content.

Abstract: TiC/Cu composites were prepared by means of high-energy ball mill and cold-press sintering. Confirming the better process parameters, the effects of the milling time and sintered temperature on microstructure, mechanical properties and electric conductivity of TiC/Cu composites was discussed. The shape of the composite grains changed from laminar to spherical and lattice distortion increased with the milling time increasing. The increase of the sintering temperature and TiC contents help to decrease porosity and density of the composites. With increasing of TiC mass fraction the bend strength increased first and then decreased，the peaks both appear in 10wt. %. The increasing of the sintering temperature is beneficial to improve the bend strength. Ball milled 15h the electric conductivity performs at optimum level. When the milling reached 24h, fine particles appear agglomeration and it shows a low level of the electric conductivity.

Abstract: During the day, the air absorption of solar radiation is weaker than either of the temperature sensing element. At night, the infrared radiation of the air capacity and weaker than either of the temperature on the surface of the sensing element.The measured values of the components of any direct exposure to the air temperature during the day the system is higher than the actual temperature at night is lower than the actual temperature. To avoid this radiation error of temperature measurement devices to take effective radiation shielding measures. The thermometer screen is one of them, widely installed in the meteorological observation field.However, the weight of conventional thermometer screen, bulky and not suitable as a portable device and automotive equipment.Small temperature sensor anti-sunlight radiation shield is widely used in a variety of surface weather measurement occasions. This paper describes the developed by the Changchun Meteorological Instrument Research Institute, the temperature sensor anti-solar radiation shield (Model: DZQ03C-X) surface chemical composition.And detailed description of the DZQ03C-X and standard thermometer screen data of the temperature contrast in the same observation locations. Measurement of air temperatures of over 50 civil airports in China are using this DZQ03C-X temperature sensor anti-sunlight radiation shield.

Abstract: This paper introduces an asphalt mixture that mixed with different admixtures, rutting resistance agent and lignin fiber, at the same time. Rutting test and freeze-thaw splitting test are used to analyze rutting resistance on the high temperature and low temperature cracking of the asphalt mixture. The experiments with different mixes material composition are conducted to analysis various properties of the two admixtures on the mixture, especially the high temperature stability, low temperature crack resistance and the law of improvement effect. In addition, the experiments also determine the optimal asphalt content of different type of mixtures. The results showed that the single-doped KTL rutting resistance or lignin fibers have some improvement in water temperature performance of asphalt mixture, stability improvement of double-doped admixture asphalt mixture is better than the single-doped asphalt mixture, such as KTL rutting resistance agents and lignin fibers
