DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0020] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a multi-field loading in-situ collaborative characterization test device based on Raman spectroscopy, comprising a test base 1, a loading platform 2, a stepper motor 3 and a Raman spectrometer; Among them, the test base 1 is movably connected to a loading platform 2, and the loading platform 2 is movably installed on the test base 1 through a screw adjustment mechanism. The screw adjustment mechanism is specifically an X-axis screw and a Y-axis screw used in the prior art. It is a prior art, and its detailed results and adjustment principles are not repeated here. The loading platform 2 is also provided with an adjustment knob 24 for adjusting the horizontal or vertical movement of the loading platform 2 on the test base 1. The direction of the X-axis and Y-axis of the loading platform 2 on the test base 1 can be adjusted by adjusting the knob 24.
[0021] The loading platform 2 consists of a loading box 21 and a cover plate 22. A stepper motor 3 is installed on the outside of the loading box 21. A thrust rod 31 is connected to the output shaft of the stepper motor 3. A pressure sensor 32 is also installed between the thrust rod 31 and the two-point loading head 4. The pressure sensor 32 is a 50kg pressure sensor. The stepper motor 3 and the pressure sensor 32 are respectively connected to a computer with a matching control system for completing the measurement of the loading pressure.
[0022] The inner end of the thrust rod 31 is disposed in the loading box 21, and a two-point loading head 4 is installed on the inner end of the thrust rod 31. A central loading head 5 for use with the two-point loading head 4 is also installed in the loading box 21, and a test sample is placed between the two-point loading head 4 and the central loading head 5. The central loading head 5 is provided with an air flow control channel 6 for controlling the humidity of the inner cavity of the loading box 21. The air flow control channel 6 is connected to an external humidity adjustment device through a pipeline, and the humidity adjustment device is also connected to the computer by signal. The air flow control channel 6 consists of a dry air flow channel and a wet air flow channel. The humidity adjustment device adopts the pressure swing adsorption principle to adjust the ratio of dry air flow and wet air flow in the air flow control channel 6 through an adsorption dryer to achieve humidity adjustment. The adsorption dryer is 220V, 15W, with a flow rate of 200L / min, an inlet temperature of ≤30°C, and air is supplied by an air pump. The ratio of air flow is adjusted by a gas flow controller with an operating temperature of -20-180°C and an operating pressure of ≤32MPa. The measuring range of the glass rotor flowmeter is 0-1.5L / min for adjustment. It is divided into a flow sensor, a diverter channel, a flow control valve, etc., which can automatically control the gas flow to achieve changes in humidity. The humidity in the loading box 21 is controlled between 10%-95%; A heating couple 7 is further provided in the loading box 21 , and the heating couple 7 is used to complete the testing operation of the test sample within the range of 25° C.-150° C.
[0023] The cover plate 22 is clamped on the loading box 21 , and a cover glass 23 is provided in the middle of the cover plate 22 . The Raman spectrometer is installed near the test base 1 through an external bracket, and the lens group of the Raman spectrometer is provided directly above the cover glass 23 .
[0024] Leveling feet 11 are respectively installed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the test base 1 for leveling the test base 1. The cover plate 22 is specifically a glass plate for easy observation.
[0025] The above-mentioned testing method of the multi-field loading in-situ collaborative characterization test device based on Raman spectroscopy includes the following steps: First, place the test sample on the central loading head 5 in the loading box 21, cover it with the cover plate 22, and adjust the lens group of the Raman spectrometer to be just above the cover glass 23; Then, the airflow control channel 6 on the central loading head 5 is used to control and adjust the humidity of the inner cavity of the loading box 21, and the thermocouple 7 is used to adjust the temperature of the inner cavity of the loading box 21. After adjusting to the set humidity and temperature environmental conditions, the test sample state is balanced. The balance treatment time is 1 hour; After the humidity and temperature are balanced, with the two-point loading head 4 unloaded, use the 10x lens of the lens group to perform a panoramic scan and select the area to be observed. After the area to be observed is adjusted to be clear, switch to the 50x lens of the lens group for observation, and use the point scanning mode of the Raman spectrometer to perform the first scan; the parameters used are: linearly polarized 785 nm laser or 532 nm laser, spectral measurement range 300-3000 cm -1The exposure time for a single acquisition was 5-20 seconds, and the number of cycles was 1-5. All subsequent scanning parameters remained unchanged, and the temperature fluctuation was kept within ±5°C and the humidity fluctuation was kept within ±5%.
[0026] Then, the loading speed of the stepper motor 3 is controlled and the thrust rod 31 is used to drive the two-point loading head 4 to load. The loading speed is 0.05-1 mm / min. After setting the loading time, the loading experiment begins. During the loading process, the test position is monitored in real time by the Raman spectrometer so that the center point of the image remains at the observation point of the first scan. At time n, another scan is performed. During the loading process, multiple time points can be selected for scanning. Each scan must ensure that the point scan position is consistent with the previous one to ensure the accuracy of the spectral frequency shift curve. When the set loading time ends, the loading test of the test sample is completed. Use the same parameters as the previous scan at the same position, save all the above Raman data and images, import the Raman data into the origin software, perform baseline calibration, and analyze the Raman peaks under different loads to observe their offset patterns.
[0027] Raman spectroscopy is used to study the micro-area distribution of natural cellulose by integrating the peak height, peak width or peak area of the characteristic peaks of cellulose molecules in the Raman spectrum to obtain a spectral imaging diagram, which can qualitatively study the spatial differences in cellulose concentration. When studying the distribution of plant cell wall components, the 345 to 390 cm -1 (β-D-glucose ring), 978 to 1178 cm -1 The Raman spectrum of bamboo is obtained at 1097 cm -1 The left and right are most obvious.
[0028] Figure 4 is the Raman spectrum, the horizontal axis is the wave number, and the vertical axis is the Raman intensity, such as Figure 4 The sample showed that at 1095 cm -1 There is a more obvious low-wavenumber motion at the α-axis, which is related to the stretching of the cellulose ring structure. During the whole process of stress relaxation, four time points were selected for analysis; When unloaded, the strain is 0 and the stress is 0 MPa; when stress relaxation reaches a constant displacement, the strain is 0.013 and the stress is 48 MPa; when stress relaxation ends, the strain is 0.013 and the stress is 46 MPa; and after the specimen is loaded to fracture, the strain is 0.015 and the stress is 24 MPa.
[0029] It can be seen from the figure that the positions of some spectral bands have changed, among which the 1097 cm -1As shown in the figure, as the stress increases, the sample is not loaded and reaches a constant displacement. When stress relaxation begins, the cellulose molecular chain is gradually stretched as the stress and strain increase. -1 The spectral band at 1097 cm moves to lower wavenumbers; when the stress relaxation of the sample ends, the strain remains unchanged during this process, and as the stress decreases, the spectral band at 1097 cm -1 The spectral band at 1097 cm moves to a higher wavenumber; then the sample is loaded until it breaks, the strain increases and the stress decreases, the cellulose molecules are broken, and the wavelength at 1097 cm -1 The spectral band at φ returned to its peak value when not loaded.
