EICP联合木质素纤维改良黄土物理力学性能及机理研究

    Physical and mechanical properties and reinforcement mechanism of loess improved by EICP combined with lignin fiber

    • 摘要: 通过物理性质测定、无侧限抗压试验及微观结构分析,系统研究了脲酶诱导碳酸钙沉淀(EICP)技术与木质素纤维单独及联合改良黄土的物理力学特性。结果表明:EICP溶液显著提高黄土pH值,而木质素纤维则有效降低其碱性;二者单独掺入均增加黄土电导率,但0.5%木质素纤维与EICP联合应用时可显著降低电导率。EICP通过生成碳酸钙晶体填充孔隙并胶结颗粒,6%掺量下抗压强度达382.2 kPa;木质素纤维(1%掺量)通过桥连作用提升强度38%。二者协同改良显著增强黄土结构强度与初始刚度,提升受荷初期的抗变形能力。最优组合(0.5%木质素纤维+ 6% EICP)抗压强度达425.5 kPa,较素土显著提升。微观结构表明,联合改良后纤维网络与碳酸钙晶体共同填充孔隙、形成致密结构,有效抑制裂缝发展。本研究阐明了EICP与木质素纤维的协同改良机制,为绿色岩土工程材料开发提供了理论支撑。

       

      Abstract: This paper systematically investigates the physical and mechanical properties of loess improved by urea enzyme-induced calcium carbonate precipitation (EICP) technology and lignin fibers, both individually and in combination, through physical property measurements, unconfined compression tests, and microstructural analysis. Results show that: EICP solution significantly increases the pH value of loess, while lignin fibers effectively reduce its alkalinity. Individually, both EICP solution and lignin fibers increase the electrical conductivity of loess, but their combined application with 0.5% lignin fibers can notably decrease conductivity. EICP technology fills pores and cements particles by calcium carbonate crystal formation, achieving a compressive strength of 382.2 kPa at a 6% solution content; lignin fibers (1% content) enhance strength by 38% through bridging effects. Their synergistic improvement significantly enhances soil structural strength and initial stiffness, improving initial deformation resistance under load. The optimal combination (0.5% lignin fibers + 6% EICP) exhibits a compressive strength of 425.5 kPa, showing a significant improvement compared to unimproved loess. Microstructural analysis reveals that the fiber network and calcium carbonate crystals jointly fill pores and form a dense structure after combined improvement, effectively inhibiting crack propagation. This study elucidates the synergistic improvement mechanism of EICP and lignin fibers, providing theoretical support for the development of green geotechnical engineering materials.
