    The new polyurethane foam with magnetic particles has become a new research focus in the field of multifunctional acoustic materials because of its excellent sound absorption properties and controllable properties as a smart material. The sound absorption properties of magnetic polyurethane foam are closely related to the preparation of raw materials and preparation conditions. However, there are no consistent and complete conclusions about the influence of iron powder content and excitation magnetic field on the sound absorption properties of magnetic polyurethane foam. In this paper, 10 kinds of magnetic polyurethane foam samples with 3 different magnetic particle percentages of 15wt%, 40wt% and 80wt%, are prepared under different excitation conditions of 50 mT, 100 mT, 150 mT and 200 mT, respectively. The purpose of this study is to study the influence of magnetic field strength and iron powder content on the sound absorption properties of magnetic polyurethane foam. The sound absorption coefficient curves of each sample in the frequency range of 64~1 600 Hz were obtained by using impedance tube and transfer function method. The results show that increasing the content of iron powder can improve the sound absorption coefficient band as a whole within the test frequency, while the increase of magnetic field leads to the right shift of sound absorption coefficient curve and increase the peak value of sound absorption coefficient. The iron powder content of the raw material and the excitation magnetic field intensity affect the sound absorption properties of magnetic polyurethane foam comprehensively, and the sound absorption coefficient frequency characteristics of magnetic polyurethane foam can be designed according to application requirements.

    The wet recovery methods for recovering precious metal palladium from different wastes were reviewed, and the important value of palladium recovery was clear, but there are problems of complex system components, extremely low content and direct discharge without treatment resulting in waste of resources. According to the different recovery mechanism of wet process, the wet recovery methods were classified and described by adsorption method, ion exchange method, complexation-extraction method, precipitation method and so on. Among the four methods, the application of the adsorption method was gradually increasing, so the adsorption method was mainly introduced in detail. Adsorption materials could be divided into metal oxide composite adsorbent materials, carbon-based composite adsorbent materials, MOFs composite adsorbent materials and biomass composite adsorbent materials. The composite adsorbent was usually compounded with functional ligands and carriers by grafting or impregnation methods, so it had higher adsorption capacity and selectivity than ordinary adsorbents, and showed fast adsorption.It pointed out that in the future development direction, in order to promote the high selectivity and high recovery rate of the noble metal palladium recovery, the adsorption method would become the first choice, and at the same time, the recycling could be green.

    The performance of materials based on barium strontium titanate (BST) in recent years was reviewed. The effects of different preparation conditions, different substrates and doping on the performance of BST were discussed, and the prospect of improving the performance of barium strontium titanate was presented. The electrical properties of BST were affected by physical characteristics. The density and microstructure of BST were affected by controlling the manufacturing process parameters or adding dopants, thereby improving the dielectric properties and further affecting the energy storage density of the material. Bi-doped BST ceramics exhibited typical relaxation properties. The substitution of Zr improved the frequency stability of the dielectric constant and reduced the dielectric loss obviously. The doping of Mn could effectively suppress the dielectric loss, and a proper amount of doping could improve the recoverable energy density and efficiency. Moderate cerium doping was beneficial to improve the dielectric properties. Doping of chlorophyll was expected to reduce the crystal defects and increase the intensity of the material, while improving the reflectivity of the sample.

    Epoxy resin based glass fiber composites have been widely used because of their good mechanical properties, simple preparation and low cost. However, the problem of lower strength and elastic modulus of glass fiber composites compared with carbon fiber composites, to some extent, has limited their applications in some fields. In this paper, carbon fiber powders were added to epoxy resin to prepare carbon-fiber-powder modified epoxy resin based glass fiber composites, and the influence of the size and the content of the carbon fiber powders on the tensile and bending properties of the composites was studied. The results show that adding carbon fiber powders to epoxy resin could improve the tensile and bending properties of the resultant composites. With the increase in the content of carbon fiber powders, the tensile strength and bending strength of the composites showed the tendency of increasing first and then decreasing. The glass fiber composites with 20% (wt%) carbon fiber powders of the size of #1000 showed the greatest increase in both tensile strength and bending strength, and compared with the glass fiber composites without carbon fiber powders, the tensile strength and the bending strength increased by 67% and 92%, respectively. Therefore, when using carbon fiber powders to modify epoxy resin, the mechanical properties of glass fiber composites could be improved at a lower cost than replacing some glass fibers with continuous carbon fibers, and it was expected that the applications of glass fiber composites could be further extended.

    The hydration mechanism of fiber-reinforced MgO/SiO2 cement was discussed, and the effect of MgO/SiO2 mixture ratio on the hydration process of the system was studied. The influence of MgO/SiO2 mixing ratio and aging time on the mechanical properties of the material was studied through the tensile/bending strength test. The change rule of the material properties with the MgO/SiO2 mixing ratio was determined and the optimal formula was obtained. The morphology and composition of hydration products of MgO/SiO2 composite were characterized by SEM and FT-IR. The hydration process of MgO/SiO2 cement was studied by pH value and ion concentration characterization. The results showed that the hydration products of the MgO/SiO2 mixed system were Mg(OH)2 and hydrated magnesium silicate gel. The mechanical properties of MgO/SiO2 cement were affected by the interaction of Mg(OH)2 and magnesium silicate hydrate. The 60%MgO-40%SiO2 mixing ratio was the best formulation of the cement composite material. The flexural strength of the 60%MgO-40%SiO2 sample added with lignocellulose fiber was about 9.2 MPa on the first day of aging, which was 26% higher than that of the ordinary cement(7.3 MPa), and the flexural strength was still higher than that of the ordinary cement after 10 days of accelerated aging. It could be seen that the addition of lignocellulosic fiber to MgO/SiO2 could significantly enhance the flexural strength and improve the mechanical properties of MgO/SiO2 cement.

    Hybrid fiber reinforced concrete (HFRC) was prepared by single and mixed doping of polypropylene fiber (PF) and steel fiber (SF). The compressive strength, impact toughness and sulfate corrosion resistance of fiber reinforced concrete were evaluated by means of hydraulic testing machine, drop weight test and sodium sulfate immersion corrosion. Through the study of water absorption, the corrosion mechanism of fiber reinforced concrete was analyzed. The sulfate corrosion resistance of SF0.5/PF0.3 concrete samples was studied by FT-IR and SEM. The results showed that the mixture of SF and PF could significantly improve the compressive strength and compressive toughness of concrete, and the compressive strength of SF0.5/PF0.2 sample was the highest. With the increase of fiber volume fraction, the toughness of fiber-reinforced concrete increased, the initial crack decreased, and the number of ultimate impact damage increased. The impact resistance of SF1.0/PF0.2 sample was the best, which was 173% higher than that of the ordinary concrete sample without fiber. The higher the water absorption, the worse the sulfate corrosion resistance of concrete. The mixed fiber doping could help to reduce the water absorption and improve the corrosion resistance of concrete to sodium sulfate solution. The 7 d corrosion resistance of SF0.5/PF0.1,SF0.5/PF0.2,SF0.5/PF0.3 and SF1.0/PF0.2 samples was 13.89%,15.45%,17.04% and 15.2% higher than that of ordinary concrete, and the 7 d corrosion resistance of SF0.5/PF0.3 concrete sample was the highest, which could reach 96.11%.

Materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscope(SEM), and electrocatalytic performances of materials were investigated by electrochemical workstation. The results showed that the particles of α-Ni(OH)2 were significantly smaller and more evenly dispersed after the combination of g-C3N4. When the content of g-C3N4/α-Ni(OH)2 was 20.6 wt%, the overpotential of the composite was 333.5 mV at the conditions of 10 mA/cm2 current density and 1 mol/L KOH electrolyte, significantly better than that of pure g-C3N4 and α-Ni(OH)2. This work provided a possibility for the commercialization of electrocatalytic oxygen production using low-cost Ni(OH)2 instead of noble metal catalyst.

    In recent years, phosphaphenanthrene and its derivatives have been widely used in flame retardant epoxy resin (EP) because of their high reactivity and good compatibility in EP. Firstly, the 6H-dibenzo[c,e][1,2] oxaphosphinine-6-sulfide (DOPS) was synthesized through the reaction of DOPO and P2S5. Secondly, phosphaphenanthrene/epoxy composites(DOPS/EP) was prepared by adding DOPS to EP. Thirdly, the thermal decomposition process of DOPS/EP was studied by TG/DTG method. Finally, the thermal decomposition kinetics parameters, including the activation energy and pre-exponential factor , the thermal decomposition kinetics mechanism function and reaction order of the decomposition process were calculated by Kissinger, Flynn-Wall-Ozawa and Coast-Redfern equation. The results show that the thermal decomposition process of DOPS/EP was divided into two stages, and the thermal decomposition kinectic parameters were EK1(DOPS/EP)=163.82 kJ/mol, lnAK1=35.60, EO1(DOPS/EP)=164.36 kJ/mol, EK2(DOPS/EP)=195.59 kJ/mol, lnAK2=35.67, EO2(DOPS/EP)=196.18 kJ/mol. The thermal decomposition kinetic equation of DOPS/EP could be expressed as g(α)=[-ln(1-α)]4, while the reaction order n=4, and the thermal decomposition mechanism was random nucleation and its subsequent growth.

    Based on Incoloy 925 alloy, Ni-Fe-Cr based alloy is a new type of precipitation hardening superalloy, which is obtained by increasing the contents of Ni, Al and decreasing the contents of Cr and Ti. It is widely used in aerospace and sulfur-containing oil and gas engineering. The oxidation kinetics of Ni-Fe-Cr alloy in air at 800 ℃, 900 ℃ and 1000 ℃ was studied by the methods of DSC/TG, SEM/EDS and XRD. It is found that the initial oxidation stage of the alloy changed with fluctuation at 800 ℃ and 900 ℃, which may be related to the transformation of the precipitated phase γ″-Ni3Nb and plant-like δ-Ni3Nb at these temperature zones. With the stable oxidation film formed, the oxidation mass gain ratio to the time followed a linear growth. When the temperature was 1000 ℃, the oxidation kinetics accorded with the parabolic law, but the initial oxidation rate was higher than the low ones and the oxide film cracked. The surface oxide was mainly composed of Cr2O3, Fe2O3, NiO, TiO2 and spinel structure of NiCr2O4 and CrTiO3, while the inner oxide was mainly Al2O3 and TiO2.

    The single concrete has defects such as poor toughness and easy cracking.In order to enhance the application performance of concrete materials,the main solution is to mix steel fiber into concrete to make steel fiber reinforced concrete.In order to verified the effectiveness of this measure,the apparent density method was used to design the mix proportion,and the single concrete specimen and steel fiber reinforced concrete specimen were prepared, and the single concrete specimen was taken as the contrast test group.SEM,XRD and universal testing machine were used to study the cross-section morphology, element composition and mechanical properties of the specimens.In the stage of mechanical property analysis,the mechanical properties of single concrete specimens and steel fiber reinforced concrete specimens under different loads and different steel fiber contents were studied.The results showed that the structure of steel fiber reinforced concrete was uniform and continuous,and had a large specific surface area,the friction of steel fiber surface could be increased after the specimen was stressed.The content of C in steel fiber reinforced concrete increased significantly, accounting for 44%, and the strength grade of steel fiber reinforced concrete increased.Through the study of compressive strength,flexural strength,splitting tensile strength,fracture toughness and elastic modulus,it could be seen that the overall mechanical properties of steel fiber reinforced concrete specimens were obviously better than that of single concrete specimens,which showed that steel fiber could effectively enhance the performance of concrete, improved the toughness of concrete and prevented cracks.

    Cu2SnS3 thin films were grown by sulfurization of sputtering stacked metal precursor in a H2S:N2 atmosphere. Different Cu/Sn composition ratios of films were prepared to study the effection of Cu/Sn atomic ratio on the properties of CTS thin films. The microstructures and Cu/Sn composition ratios of the films were characterized with X-ray diffraction and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), respectively. The X-ray diffractograms show that the deposited films are exclusively oriented along the (-131) direction. The optical absorption coefficient and band gap of the films were estimated by means of transmission and reflection spectra measured at room temperature. Highly crystallized p-type CTS thin films were achieved when the Cu/Sn ratio is about 1.91. They have high absorption coefficient of 2.07×104 cm-1, suitable carrier concentration 6.6×1018 cm-3, high mobility 5.1 cm2 v-1s-1 and narrow optical band gap 0.97 eV. it is a suitable candidate for thin film solar cell absorber materials.

    Titanium dioxide, owing to its excellent sensitivity to volatile organic chemicals gases and physicochemical stability, is consideredto be one of the potential candidates for VOCs gases sensing applications. In this work, (1~5 mol%)Sn-doped porous TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized by hydrothermal method. By testing and studying the acetone sensitivity of Sn-doped TiO2 based gas sensor, in the field of gas sensors, the potential application prospect of Sn-doped porous TiO2 nanoparticles wasproved. For instance, the sensor test shows that Sn-doped significantly decreased the best work temperature. 3 mol % Sn-TiO2 showed high response (SR~42.35), fast response (16 s), recovery (8s) time good selectivity and long-term stability. In order to understand and authenticate the sensing mechanism, the structure and morphology of synthesized Sn-TiO2 NPs were performed by XRD, XPS, SEM and TEM. Furthermore, a plausible sensing mechanism was discussed on basis of the obtained results.

    Clove essential oil is a natural and highly effective bacteriostatic agent, but its poor water solubility limits its wide application. In this study, palmitic acid (PA) was used as the hydrophobic group and N-acetyl-L cysteine (NAC) was used as the hydrophilic group to synthesize amphiphilic chitosan derivatives (PA-CS- NAC), and further prepared clove essential oil-amphiphilic chitosan drug-loaded nanomicelles (NMs). Fourier infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectroscopy showed that both PA and NAC were successfully grafted onto chitosan. Scanning electron microscopy results showed that the morphology of NMs showed a uniformly dispersed spherical shape. The research results have shown that clove essential oil-amphiphilic chitosan-loaded nanomicelles had pH-responsive performance at room temperature, and their antibacterial properties against Botrytis Cinerea increased by more than 10% compared with unembedded clove essential oil, where the performance of bacteria was improved significantly.

    In order to obtain a 0.2 mm-thick NiTi shape memory alloy (NiTi-SMA) welded joint with a small difference in phase transformation temperature between the welded metal and the base metal, it will meet the needs of practical applications. In this paper, the Nb element is introduced into the weld by adding welding wire, and the welded joint is aging treated after welding to realize the control of the weld metal phase transition temperature, so that it can reach a level similar to that of the base metal. The results show that the weld metal of NiTi joint with Nb wire is mainly B2 phase, B19'phase, NbTi phase, Nb phase and (NiTi, Nb) solid solution, and Ni4Ti3 phase precipitates from weld metal after PWHT at 600℃. Through the compound method of “adding 0.10mmNb wire+ PWHT at 600 ℃”, weld metal with As and Ms very close to that of NiTi base metal was obtained.

    Fe-Si alloy magnetic powder cores prepared by the gas-atomization technology were coated by using a novel insulating agent of layered magnesium aluminum silicate. The effect of the coating insulating agents on surface structure and magnetic properties of the coated Fe-Si alloy magnetic powders was characterized by the technologies of scanning electron microscopy and magnetic measurements. The results show that surface coatings on the Fe-Si alloy magnetic powder using the novel coating agent of magnesium aluminum silicate were more uniform and denser without crystallization, in comparison with those using the conventional coating agent of aluminum dihydrogen phosphate. In the frequency range of 1-1000 kHz, the effective magnetic permeability of the magnetic powder cores treated by the two types of insulating agents showed good frequency stability. However, the superposition characteristics, quality factors and power loss of the magnetic powder cores coated by magnesium aluminum silicate were superior to the equivalent parameters of those by caluminumdihydrogen phosphate.

    Aiming at the existing problems of surface working hardening, low processing efficiency and poor product surface evenness in cold drawing of titanium alloy, the influence of electrochemical corrosion of titanium alloy in corrosive medium on its surface tribological behavior and its mechanism were explored, so as to provide theoretical basis for the application of electrochemical drawing technology of titanium alloy in the future. The electrochemical corrosion friction behavior of TC4 titanium alloy in H2SO4 solution was studied by ball-disc reciprocating friction testing machine and electrochemical method, and the relationship between different applied potential, sliding velocity, friction coefficient and wear morphology was analyzed. The results show that the local plastic deformation of the contact area caused by sliding friction promotes the dissolution of the anode at the wear mark and causes the negative open circuit potential and corrosion current to increase greatly. When the external electric potential increases from -0.3v to 1.0v, the friction coefficient decreases first and then increases. Under the simultaneous action of applied potential and chemical corrosion, the corrosion products on the surface of the sample could influence its surface morphology and wear mechanism, thus effectively improving the tribological properties on the surface of TC4.

    In order to improve the performance of cement-based materials, carbon nanotubes were used as reinforcement components to prepare cement-based grouting materials by ultrasonic dispersion method,and the grouting performance was analyzed.The influence of carbon nanotube content on compressive strength, flexural strength, stability, rheological property, durability and crack resistance of grouting materials was analyzed by mechanical property test,stability test, rheological property test, durability test and crack resistance test.The results showed that when the content of carbon nanotubes were 0.4wt%,the compressive strength and flexural strength of grouting material were the best,which could reach 22.6 and 5.2 MPa,respectively,which were 39.5% and 62.5% higher than those of 16.2 and 3.2 MPa of the specimens without carbon nanotubes.When the content of carbon nanotubes increased to 0.5wt%, the time to reach stability and the residual volume of slurry were increased by 60.0% and 6.8% respectively compared with the samples without carbon nanotubes,which indicated that the stability of grouting materials was gradually improved with the increase of carbon nanotube content.Adding carbon nanotubes into the grouting material could form a crisscross structure and form a flocculation structure,which increased the shear stress of the grouting material sample and improved the rheological property of the grouting material to a certain extent.The incorporation of carbon nanotubes could effectively improved the chloride ion penetration resistance,durability and crack resistance of grouting materials,and reduced the water separation rate of grouting materials.The properties of carbon nanotubes reinforced cement-based grouting materials meet the requirements of practical construction and application, and are suitable for popularization.

    A zinc-doped silica adsorbent was prepared by simple method, and an analytical method for rapid and selective detection of luteoloside in Coreopsis tinctoria was established by near-infrared diffuse reflectance spectroscopy.During the discussion of the influence conditions on the adsorption rate of the adsorbent, the pH value, the dosage of adsorbent and the adsorption time were studied.The adsorbent enriched with luteoloside was detected directly by near infrared spectroscopy, and a quantitative correction model was established by partial least square method.The analytical method of near-infrared spectroscopy found that the adsorption rate of luteoloside reached 87.1% when the adsorbent mass was 0.25 g for 20 min at room temperature under neutral conditions.After SNV treatment, the correlation coefficient between the reference concentration and the predicted concentration of luteoloside correction model was 0.9909, and the predicted recovery was in the range of 87-118%.The results showed that the zinc-doped silica adsorbent could effectively enrich the trace amount of luteoloside in Coreopsis tinctoria.The near-infrared spectroscopy combined with stoichiometric method realized the rapid, sensitive and selective determination of trace amount of luteoloside in Coreopsis tinctoria.This provided a reference for the detection of trace active components in other medicinal plants.
