TÓM TẮT
Light Transmitting Concrete (LTC) is an innovative material for crafting unique and sustainable architectural and civil structures. Previous studies primarily utilized optical fibers with diameters below 1.5 mm, which did not exceed 10 % of the volumetric content in concrete. This study aims to develop LTC with ultra-high light transmission capabilities while preserving its mechanical strength. An important innovation is the use of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) with larger diameters than normal optical fibers. Specifically, PMMA fibers of 2.0 mm diameter and PMMA tubes of 10–20 mm diameter were employed to increase the spacing between these materials when arranged in an ultra-high volumetric content within the concrete, facilitating easier compaction of the fresh concrete. Experiments of the material's mechanical properties, microstructure, and optical performance were conducted. The findings suggest that although the increased PMMA content might reduce the concrete’s mechanical strength due to a smaller effective cross-sectional area, the LTC still achieves compressive strength exceeding 40 MPa. This underscores the viability of LTC with a substantially higher content of light transmitting functional materials compared to previous studies, while still maintaining a mechanical strength greater than normal concrete. The light transmission efficiency of LTC is nearly directly proportional to its PMMA content, and able to reach up to 30 % of the light source's intensity. Additionally, LTC with PMMA fibers provides uniform light distribution across its surface because of scattering, while LTC with larger-diameter PMMA tubes focuses light around the core areas due to direct lighting.
