Abstract
In this paper, the mechanical properties of micropowder cement mortar and engineered cementitious composites (ECC), using different processing municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) as a mineral admixture, were investigated. Through the direct ball milling method, ball milling heat treatment method, water washing ball milling method and water washing heat treatment ball milling method, the mechanical properties of MSWI bottom slag-regenerated micropowder cement mortar were tested. Compared with other groups, the flexural strength and compressive strength of the specimen prepared by the MSWI after washing and heating (750 °C, 5 h) were the highest, which reached 82.0% and 81.0% of the reference group, respectively. Based on this treatment, a uniaxial tensile test, three-point bending test and single fiber pull-out test were then carried out to explore the relevant ECC properties containing MSWI. The strain-hardening index PSH of ECC was determined by analyzing the fracture toughness and elastic modulus, fiber/matrix interface chemical bond and friction bond strength of ECC containing MSWI. The results showed that the PSH index of ECC was higher when the treated powder content was 2.2, the w/c ratio was 0.25 and the fiber volume content was 2.0%. This led to higher tensile ductility, which made it easier to achieve stable multi-slit cracking and strain-hardening behavior.
