Abstract

The mechanical strength, thermal stability, thermal performance, and microstructure of Qtech T26 blast mitigation polyurea (T26 polyurea) were studied using quasi-static and dynamic mechanical experiments, thermogravimetric experiments, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) experiments, and contact explosion and non-contact explosion experiments with polyurea-coated reinforced concrete slabs. Additionally, the energy dissipation mechanism of the coating was analyzed. The blast mitigation ability and blast mitigation mechanism of T26 polyurea-coated reinforced concrete slabs were investigated by analyzing the macroscopic morphology of reinforced concrete slabs with or without coatings and the contact explosion simulation of polyurea-coated reinforced concrete slabs. The results showed that T26 polyurea exhibited a certain strain rate effect. Its initial thermal decomposition temperature reached 286 °C, and its thermal stability was good. After carbonization, carbon slag can form and adhere to the structural surface. The glass transition temperature Tgs of the soft segment was −44.9 °C, and the glass transition temperature Tgh of the hard segment was 36.5 °C, showing a certain amount of microphase separation morphology. After the explosion test, there was a small pit on the front surface of the coated reinforced concrete plate, and there was no damage on the back surface. The integrity of the plate was good. The uncoated reinforced concrete slab had a large crater on the front of the explosion surface, and the back of the explosion surface experienced explosion collapse, concrete crushing, and an overall loss of stability. The numerical simulation results showed that the failure mode of the coated plate was consistent with the test. The kinetic energy conversion rate of the uncoated reinforced concrete plate was 87.27%, and the kinetic energy conversion rate of the coated reinforced concrete plate was 95.36%. The T26 coating improved the kinetic energy conversion rate of the structure and improved the blast mitigation ability of the reinforced concrete plate structure.
