Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of civil engineering materials and preparation thereof, and in particular relates to a carbon-polyethylene hybrid fiber EGC material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] High-ductility fiber-reinforced geopolymer composites (Engineered Geopolymer Composites, EGC for short) are high-performance materials designed based on microscopic fracture theory. They exhibit multi-crack cracking and strain hardening characteristics under tension-bending loads. Their ductility can reach hundreds of times that of traditional concrete, dozens of times that of ordinary FRC, and several times that of steel bars. They are known as "bendable concrete". At the same time, EGC can control the crack width under extreme load to below 80μm and has self-healing ability. Therefore, the promotion and application of EGC can greatly improve the anti-penetration performance, anti-cracking ability and seismic performance of concrete structures. At present, this material with excellent performance has been used in the fields of highway expansion joints, connecting beams, exterior wall insulation panels, etc.

[0003] However, the tensile properties of the geopolymer matrix itself are poor, resulting in low cracking strength of EGC and easy initial cracks. Therefore, the tensile strength of EGC materials can be improved by mixing fibers. In addition, there is a certain mixing effect of fiber mixing, which can improve the mechanical properties of a single fiber, give full play to the advantages of multiple fibers, and achieve complementary advantages. Mixing carbon fiber and polyethylene fiber can achieve a synergistic bridging mechanism under different crack widths. Summary of the invention
