Abstract
Polyurethane (PU) sealants are widely used in practical projects to fill road cracks, extend road life and increase the strength of construction joints. And the fillers not only reinforce the sealant, but also effectively reduce costs. In this paper, a series of experiments were carried out to investigate the effects of filler types and contents on the curing behavior and properties of a novel bio-based PU sealant. Firstly, the optimum filler type was determined by fluorescence microscopy (FM) test and physical properties test. The dispersion of different fillers of different contents in the sealant and its effect on the mechanical properties were determined. Secondly, the effect of fillers on the curing behavior was investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), gel time experiment and surface drying time experiment. The cross-section surface micro-morphologies of the specimens after tensile tests were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Finally, the viscoelasticity and lowtemperature properties were determined using dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The high-temperature properties of sealant were investigated using thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. The results showed that precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) was the best filler. Moreover, fumed silica (FS), as a reactive filler, significantly influences the performance of the sealant. With the increase of filler content, the mechanical and high temperature properties of the sealant were enhanced. And the curing process was accelerated. But the lowtemperature performance was reduced. Besides, excessive amount of PCC was worse to its uniform dispersion in the sealant and lead to defections in the materials, reducing the strength of the sealant. The optimum PCC content was recommended to be 10 wt%.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
