In this study, polymerized siloxane (PS) is proposed as a novel surface treatment agent. PS was synthesized from tetramethoxysilane through hydrolysis and condensation, yielding polymerized siloxanes with a final molecular weight ranging from 200 to 2,000 g/mol, as confirmed by various characterization methods. The PS was subsequently applied and solidified on the surfaces of cured Portland cement samples. Nanoindentation tests revealed significant increases in surface hardness, with cement and mortar showing improvements from 260 to 920 MPa and 352 to 751 MPa, respectively, following the PS treatment. The improvement in modulus indicates the formation of high-density calcium silicate hydrate (HD C-S-H) on the surfaces of the cement-based materials. With the treatment of PS, the surface of cement-based materials is covered with HD C-S-H generated by the reaction of PS and Ca(OH)2, resulting in a smooth surface without pores. AFM measurements revealed a substantial decrease in the surface roughness of the cement following PS application. Surface and cross-sectional morphologies observed via SEM and EDS confirmed the penetration depth of PS, evidenced by the distribution of Si and C elements. This study introduces PS as an effective surface treatment agent for achieving high-hardness surfaces on Portland cement–based materials.","PeriodicalId":16330,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering","volume":"37 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147900007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The changes in hydration products and microstructure of host materials were monitored to reveal the underlying mechanisms using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and mercury intrusion porosimetry. The results indicate that CE decrease the portlandite (CH) content and inhibit the growth of CH crystal with a smaller size and eroded edges, thus increasing its reactivity with CO2 during carbonation. CE increase the porosity and coarsen the pore structure because of the air-entrainment effect in cement pastes, promoting the CO2 diffusion in the system.

Four polysaccharide polymers, including low-viscosity hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC-LV), high-viscosity hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC-HV), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCH), were added in the MICP processes to investigate their effects on the mechanical properties of precipitated calcium carbonate. By comparing the crystalline phase of calcium carbonate, particle morphology and size, and pore structure of precipitates with and without the polysaccharide polymers, the underlying mechanisms were revealed for the enhancement effect of polysaccharide polymers on the mechanical properties of the precipitates. The results show that (1) the addition of CMC or CMCH significantly increases the average hardness and Young’s modulus of the precipitated calcium carbonate, whereas the addition of HPMC-LV or HPMC-HV has no significant effect; (2) the addition of HPMC-LV or HPMC-HV tends to increase the proportion of calcite and improve the pore structure in the precipitates, whereas the addition of CMC or CMCH tends to increase the particle size; and (3) compared with HPMC-LV and HPMC-HV, CMC and CMCH can better induce the mixing of organic-inorganic materials and promote more easily the aggregation and growth of particles. This is because CMC and CMCH are rich in carboxyl group, whereas HPMC-LV and HPMC-HV are rich in hydroxyl group. The carboxyl group has a stronger electrostatic interaction than does the hydroxyl group.

Molybdenum disulfide, as a nanoscale layered solid lubricant, can enhance the compatibility of rubber-modified asphalt, effectively addressing the issues of high viscosity and poor construction performance of asphalt at elevated temperatures. However, molybdenum disulfide tends to undergo self-agglomeration within the polymer matrix. To address this issue, the present study employed a polyphenol bionic coating method. Modification of molybdenum disulfide was achieved through the codeposition of hydrochloric acid dopamine (DAh) and (3-Mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilane (MT), resulting in the formation of a bionic coating on its surface (DAh-MT-MoS2). Subsequently, it is blended into the rubber and basic asphalt, followed by further research into the performance of the composite modified asphalt. Microtests validated the superior effectiveness of the bionic coating method, effectively alleviating the self-agglomeration phenomenon of molybdenum disulfide. The research results indicate that the addition of DAh-MT-MoS2 not only improved the temperature sensitivity of asphalt at high temperatures but also reduced the high-temperature viscosity. Furthermore, DAh-MT-MoS2 enhanced the viscoelastic properties of rubber-modified asphalt and helped decrease its deformation sensitivity under varying stress levels, thereby improving its resistance to deformation. Notably, at 46°C, the storage modulus and loss modulus of 0.09% DAh-MT-MoS2/terminal blend (TB) rubberized asphalt (TBRA) increased by 115.0% and 138.9%, respectively, compared with TBRA. The results from the bending beam rheometer and storage stability demonstrate that the addition of DAh-MT-MoS2 effectively enhances the crack resistance of asphalt at low temperatures and improves the storage stability of the asphalt. The addition of an appropriate amount of DAh-MT-MoS2 facilitates sulfur cross-linking reactions within rubber and asphalt, forming a three-dimensional spatial structure where rubber and asphalt are either continuous or intertwined (as observed through fluorescence microscopy). This enhances the bonding between rubber particles and asphalt, ensuring a closer connection. Simultaneously, this significantly retards the thermal decomposition process of asphalt (validated through thermogravimetric analysis), thereby enhancing the heat-resistance performance of rubberized asphalt under high-temperature conditions in summer.","PeriodicalId":16330,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering","volume":"37 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147882668","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective was to explore its potential reuse as a geomaterial in cement-treated bases in pavements exposed to harsh climates. The research examined the mix design through the effects of varying cement content, durability test conditions, compaction density, and curing time on unconfined compressive strength (qu), accumulated loss of mass (ALM), and leached heavy metal concentration [using the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) method]. Results of the stabilization and solidification process indicate that the inclusion of a PC content of 10% by weight meets the regulatory requirements for reuse in stabilized structural pavement layers, improving mechanical strength, volumetric variation, and durability, and successfully immobilizes hazardous heavy metals such as As, Pb, Cr, Cd, Zn, and Cu. A strong correlation was found between the response variables and the adjusted porosity/volumetric cement content index (η/Civ index), which is used as a rational dosing methodology for artificially cemented TMT mixtures.

In this study, the self-healing behavior of melamine-urea-formaldehyde (MUF) microcapsules was investigated. The microcapsules were synthesized using an in situ polymerization method. The proposed healing indicators, combined with fluorescence tracing technology, were used to evaluate the release behavior and sustained repair effect of the microcapsules at different damage levels, healing intervals, aging degrees, and healing temperatures. The results showed that most microcapsules survived at low damage levels, whereas larger microcapsules were more likely to rupture and release the rejuvenators. The sustained self-healing effect of the microcapsules could effectively repair internal damage within the asphalt pavement over an extended service life. Aged asphalt was particularly susceptible to the activation of microcapsules, leading to increased self-healing and the provision of additional rejuvenators for damaged asphalt mastic. Additionally, the self-healing of asphalt mastic with microcapsules had a critical temperature threshold. Microcapsules could enhance the fatigue and self-healing performance of asphalt mastic only when the healing temperature was below a certain value; otherwise, they may lead to adverse effects. The critical healing temperature threshold for thin-film oven testing (TFOT)-aged asphalt increased from approximately 30°C to about 45°C after PAV aging. This study provides a better understanding of the self-healing behavior of microcapsule asphalt, as well as the factors affecting the release behavior and sustained repair effects of the microcapsules. These results can be used to optimize the design and implementation of microcapsule technology to enhance the durability and sustainability of asphalt pavements.","PeriodicalId":16330,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147896188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research aims to enhance the adhesion of asphalt and granite by establishing chemical connections between the hydroxyl groups on granite surface and the incompletely reacted isocyanate groups in polyurethane (PU) modified asphalt. For this purpose, end-capped PU modified asphalt (PUMA) was prepared, the adhesion mechanism between PUMA and granite was analyzed by Raman spectroscopy, the adhesion properties between PUMA and granite at different curing periods were evaluated by boiling and pull-out tests, and the wettability of PUMA on granite and its moisture sensitivity were evaluated using surface free energy (SFE) method. The findings suggested that the incompletely reacted isocyanate groups in PUMA can establish a chemical connection with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of granite. The adhesion between asphalt and granite can be greatly improved by the addition of PU, and this improvement is amplified as the curing time is extended. When the curing time is extended to 3 days, the fracture mode between asphalt and granite changed from adhesive failure to cohesive failure, and after 15 days of curing, the coating ratio of PUMA on granite following the water boiling test can be raised by 28.11% in comparison to the base asphalt. The water damage resistance of PUMA-granite system can be increased by adding PU and the adhesion work and combination ratio of the freshly prepared PUMA were increased by 55.91% and 79.45%, respectively, as compared to base asphalt.

This study proposes a novel strategy to improve the mechanical and photocatalytic properties of cement mortar using nano-TiO2 hydrosol instead of conventional nano-TiO2 powder. Compared with pure mortar, the 28-day compressive and flexural strength of mortar with 0.6% by weight nano-TiO2 hydrosol were enhanced by 51% and 15%, respectively, the water absorption and chloride ion diffusion coefficient were decreased by 21% and 31%, respectively. The observed improvements were attributed to the denser microstructure and enhanced micromechanical properties in the bulk matrix and around interfacial transition zone (ITZ), resulting from the better dispersion of nano-TiO2 hydrosol in alkaline environment. In addition, compared with the mortar with nano-TiO2 powder, the degradation efficiency of Rhodamine B and NO by the mortar with nano-TiO2 hydrosol (0.6% by weight) was enhanced by 18.3% and 17.1% at 28 days, respectively. The enhancement resulted from the higher intrinsic photocatalytic activity and larger exposed surface area of nano-TiO2 hydrosol due to better dispersion. The research outcomes demonstrate the potential of using nano-TiO2 hydrosol in cement mortar to significantly increase the mechanical strength, durability, and photocatalytic activity, which can lead to the development of cement-based constructions with the integrated design of functionality and structure.","PeriodicalId":16330,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering","volume":"36 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147885301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study used epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) as a toughener and compatibilizer to modify epoxy asphalt, and the influence of ESO on the mechanical properties and compatibility of epoxy asphalt was analyzed. The results indicate that ESO’s unique aliphatic long-chain structure effectively enhances the flexibility of epoxy asphalt and improves its compatibility. The mechanical properties of epoxy asphalt are optimal when ESO content reaches 10%, and the tensile strength of 10%-ESO-EA was 2.65 MPa and the elongation at break was 183%, which was a 50% increase in elongation at break. In addition, ESO reduces the viscosity growth rate of epoxy asphalt, which is beneficial to construction. Molecular dynamics simulations revealed that the inclusion of ESO weakens intermolecular interactions, reducing the cohesive energy density of epoxy asphalt. With increasing ESO content, the proportion of flexible chain segments in epoxy asphalt rises, enhancing molecular chain mobility, decreasing intermolecular binding forces, and reducing the glass transition temperature (Tg) of epoxy asphalt.","PeriodicalId":16330,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering","volume":"36 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147900876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, three anticlay PCEs were synthesized by introducing acrylamide (AM), methacryloxyethyltrimethyl ammonium chloride (DMC), or 3-[2-(methacryloyloxy) ethyl] dimethylammonio-propane-1-sulfonate (DMAPS) into the polycarboxylate copolymer of ethylene glycol monovinyl polyethylene glycol ether (EPEG) and acrylic acid (AA), denoted as A-PCE, D-PCE, and S-PCE, respectively. The structures of these superplasticizers were characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Compared with the common polycarboxylate superplasticizers (O-PCEs), the resultant anticlay PCEs showed better dispersion as far as the fluidity of cement paste and mortar were concerned. With the content of 0.5% per weight sodium bentonite in place of cement, these anticlay PCEs exhibited better clay resistance than O-PCE. In addition, the compressive strengths of mortar and concrete by the addition of A-PCE, D-PCE, or S-PCE were slightly higher than those of O-PCE. Total organic carbon (TOC) revealed that the sensitivity of A-PCE, D-PCE, and S-PCE to clay was lower than that of O-PCE. X-ray diffraction (XRD) proved that the layer spacing of clay increased after treatment with superplasticizer. In combination of adsorption determination with XRD analysis, a possible mechanism was proposed. Unlike the PEG side chains inserting into the clay layers for O-PCE, the cations in functional groups entered the clay layers through cation exchange for anticlay PCEs preferentially.","PeriodicalId":16330,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering","volume":"36 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147920166","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
