  • Patent number: 12049425
    Abstract: A water-adaptive cement self-healing system, a preparation method and an application thereof are provided. A pH-triggered shell curing agent, an inorganic nano-emulsifier, and a polysaccharide shell material are added into deionized water to obtain an aqueous phase; an active diluent of epoxy is added to an epoxy to obtain a first oil phase; the aqueous phase is mixed with the first oil phase to obtain an oil/water emulsion; a surfactant is added into paraffin oil to obtain a second oil phase; the second oil phase is mixed with the oil/water emulsion to obtain an oil/water/oil emulsion; an acidic liquid is added into the oil/water/oil emulsion dropwise to obtain a solid, followed by centrifuging, washing, and freeze-drying to obtain a self-healing capsule; and then an epoxy curing agent is mixed with the self-healing capsule to obtain the water-adaptive cement self-healing system based on an oil/water/oil double-emulsion template.

  • Patent number: 11820711
    Abstract: The invention discloses an environment-friendly cement self-repairing system, and its preparation method and application. The preparation method comprises the following steps: adding a shell curing agent into deionized water to prepare solution 1, adding an inorganic nano emulsifier into deionized water, ultrasonically dispersing, then adding polysaccharide-shell, and uniformly stirring to obtain emulsion polymerization aqueous phase; adding epoxy diluent into epoxy resin, and uniformly stirring; obtaining an emulsion polymerization oil phase; mixing the emulsion polymerization aqueous phase and emulsion polymerization oil phase, and stirring to obtain uniform emulsion; dropping the uniform emulsion into solution drop by drop by using pendant drop method, stirring until the droplets are shaped, then filtering, washing with deionized water, and drying to obtain self-repairing capsules; next, mixing with an environment-friendly curing agent to obtain an environment-friendly cement self-repairing system.

  • Patent number: 9413571
    Abstract: Embedded piezoelectric sensors in large civil structures for structural health monitoring applications require data communication capabilities to effectively transmit information regarding the structure's integrity between sensor nodes and to the central processing unit. Conventional communication modalities include electromagnetic waves or acoustical waves. While guided elastic waves can propagate over long distances on solid structures, their multi-modal and dispersive characteristics make it difficult to interpret the channel responses and to transfer useful information along pipes. Time reversal is an adaptive transmission method that can improve the spatiotemporal wave focusing. The present disclosure presents the basic principles of a time reversal based pulse position modulation (TR-PPM) method and demonstrates TR-PPM data communication by simulation. The present disclosure also experimentally demonstrates data communication with TR-PPM on pipes.
