碳纳米管混凝土抗开裂性能试验研究

在水灰比为0.28的水泥混凝土中掺入掺量为水泥质量0%、0.2%和0.4%的多壁碳纳米管,开展抗折强度试验、收缩试验和环形约束试验,研究碳纳米管掺量对混凝土抗开裂性能的影响。结果表明:在0～0.4%掺量范围内,混凝土的抗折强度随着碳纳米管掺量的增加而增大,当碳纳米管掺量为0.4%时,抗折强度可提高21.3%;混凝土的收缩应变随着碳纳米管掺量的增加而减小,收缩应变可减小约18.4%;碳纳米管的掺入有助于提高混凝土的抗开裂性能,其掺量越大,混凝土的抗开裂性能越好,其原因与碳纳米管的桥联作用有关。     

Nickel Sulfide/Graphene/Carbon Nanotube Composites as Electrode Material for the Supercapacitor Application in the Sea Flashing Signal System

This work presents NiS/graphene/carbon nanotube （NiS/GNS/CNT） composites as electrode material for the supercapacitor application in sea flashing signal systems. NiS nanosheets were closely anchored on the conductive GNS-CNT networks. As a result, the NiS/GNS/CNT electrode showed a high specific capacitance of 2 377 F.g^-1 at 2 mV.s^-1 and good cycling stability compared with the pure NiS （1 599F.g^-1）. The enhanced electrochemical performances are attributed to the synergetic effect between the conductive carbon and the pseudo-capacitive NiS. The high performance supercapacitor may provide application in the sea flashing signal system.
