Introduction. The aim of the research is to study the compressibility of composite materials obtained by varying the degree of impregnation of a non-woven needle-punched cloth with an aqueous dispersion of polyurethane. Materials and research methods. Non-woven needle-punched cloth made of polyethylene terephthalate fibers (TU 6-13-0204077-95-91) with a linear density of 0.33 tex (diameter 20–25 microns) was used as objects of research. For impregnation, an aqueous dispersion of anionic stabilized aliphatic polyethiruretane of the brand IMPRANIL DL 1380 (PRC) with a dry residue of 40% was used. The compressibility of canvases and composite materials was established using the ICH indicator according to GOST 577-68 with an accuracy of measuring the thickness of ± 0.001 mm. Results and discussion. An approach is proposed to establish the relationship between the degree of compressibility of composite materials and the load and to obtain an equation for predicting the degree of compressibility of composite materials from the degree of impregnation and load. Optimal loading conditions of the composite material with a minimum degree of compressibility has been established. Conclusion. The optimal degree of impregnation of a non-woven needlepunched fabric made of polyethylene terephthalate fibers with a diameter of 20–25 microns with polyurethane dispersion is 0.5.

Introduction. Reducing the density, increasing the strength and other physical-technical characteristics of lightweight concretes are urgent tasks of modern building materials science. To solve them, it is necessary to consider new approaches to the development of compositions of cement systems using effective porous aggregates, binders, chemical and mineral additives, including different nanomodifiers (carbon nanotubes, fullerenes, nanoparticles of SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, etc.). The complexity of designing modified cement concretes is largely due to their multicomponent nature and a large number of parameters affecting the key characteristics of material. The qualitative solution of such multicriteria problems is possible with the complex implementation of rational physical and computational experiments using mathematical modeling and computer technology. New opportunities for modeling of structure formation processes and predicting properties of multicomponent building materials are emerging with the development of machine learning methods. The purpose of this study is to develop machine learning algorithms that can efficiently establish quantitative dependences for the compressive strength of modified lightweight concretes on their composition, as well as to identify the optimal variation ranges of prescription parameters based on the obtained multifactor models to achieve the required level of controlled mechanical characteristic. Methods and materials. The processing and analysis of experimental research results were carried out using modern methods of machine learning with a teacher used in the problems of regression recovery, knowledge extraction and forecasting. To implement the developed machine learning algorithms, libraries in the Python programming language, in particular NumPy, Pandas, Scikit-learn, Matplotlib, Seaborn, were used. Results and discussion. It is established that the gradient boosting model is the most accurate type among the obtained machine learning models. It is characterized by the following quality metrics: R2 = 0.9557; MAE = 2.4847; MSE = 12.7704; RMSE=3.5736; MAPE = 11.1813%. According to the analysis of this multifactor model, the optimal dosages of pozzolanic and expanding modifiers amounted to 4.5–6.0% and 6.0–7.5% of the binder weight (Portland cement + modifier), respectively, which ensured achievement of the required level of compressive strength (40–70 MPa) of lightweight concretes at the age of 28 days at material density reduced by 3–10% (the range under consideration is 1200–1900 kg/m3). Conclusions. Thus, the study results show the prospects of using machine learning methods for design compositions and predicting properties of multicomponent cement systems.

Concrete with fillers of various dispersion and their nanomodification
Другой
The author is the first to propose the filling and nanostructuring of coarse materials such as concrete. Existing grinding methods in construction materials provide particle sizes of 10–50 microns (microns), including cement particles. It is preferable to use cavitation technology in suspensions when producing smaller particles. The article discusses the nanostructuring of cement systems by introducing ultra- and nanodispersed mineral additives. At the same time, additional grinding of mineral additives is carried out at cavitation plants. Nanostructuring provides compaction of concrete structures and increase the strength characteristics of concrete up to 2.5 times.

Concretes with nanoadditive of fired recycled concrete
Статья научная
The practice of using recycled concrete from the broken concrete of substandard reinforced concrete products can become widespread in practice. The undoubted relevance of this topic is explained by the program for the renovation of the housing stock in the city of Moscow, which provides for the demolition of 5-storey residential buildings until 2032. The problem of recycling and reuse of construction waste becomes obvious to improve the environmental situation, as well as to reduce the cost of materials in construction and preserve natural resources. The article deals with the nanostructuring of cement systems by means of introduction of ultra- and nanodispersed mineral additives. In this case, additional grinding of mineral additives is carried out in cavitation units. Nanostructuring provides the compaction of concrete structures and an increase in the strength properties of concrete.

Introduction. The objective of this study is to examine the impact of the impregnation (with the aliphatic polyurethane water dispersion) degree on the deformation properties of the polyacetal, polyethylene terephthalate and polypropylene fibers based nonwoven needle-punched composite fabrics. Materials and methods. We investigated the deformation properties of the nonwoven fabrics manufactured from the 0.33 tex linear density fibers of: polyethyleneterephthalate (diameter 20–25 microns, according to TU 6-13- 0204077-95-91), polypropylene (diameter 27–30 microns, according to TU 2272-007-5766624-93) and the original polyacetal ones (diameter 18–22 microns). The nonwoven fabrics were obtained by the mechanical formation technique. The needlepunching surface density was 180 cm–2. The water dispersion of anionic stabilized aliphatic polyethyruretane (IMPRANIL DL 1380 (China)) with a dry residue of 40% was used for the impregnation. The experimental samples’ linear dimensions were determined in accordance with the requirements of GOST 15902.2-2003. The sample’s thickness was determined by a thickness gauge with a pressure of 10 kPa and an instrumental error ~ 0.01 mm according to GOST 11358-70. The samples’ mechanical properties were determined in accordance with the requirements of GOST 15902.3-79. Results and discussion. The fiber filler composition influence on the ob-tained (by the impregnation of polyethyleneterephthalate, polypropylene and polyacetal fibers based non-woven needle-punched fabrics with polyurethane aqueous dispersion) composite materials tensile resistance has been established. We found the impregnation degree (depending on the chemical nature of the fibers and on the direction of nonwoven fabrics formation) at which the tensile resistance of the composite materials reaches the maximum value. It is demonstrated that, in the construction of buildings and structures, it is advisable to utilize materials based on composite polyacetal fibers. These materials exhibit higher tensile resistance compared to those based on polypropylene and polyethylene terephthalate at equivalent impregnation levels. Conclusion. The obtained optimal impregnation degree (at which the maximum tensile resistance of polyacetal fiber based composite materials was achieved) depends on the direction of the non-woven fabric formation. The maximum tensile resistance was observed: in the transverse direction – at 0.44 and in the longitudinal direction – at 0.35 impregnation degree values.
