With the gradual deepening of mine excavation depth, the strong disturbance of deep strata becomes more and more obvious. Rock’s failure under blasting mainly depends on its dynamic tensile strength. The changes in rock’s dynamic properties are obviously affected by temperature and water. In order to study the dynamic tensile properties of annular sandstone specimens under the influence of temperature and water, deep sandstone was drilled, followed by water bath tests at eight temperatures (25~95 °C). It can be seen from the analysis of test results that the mass and volume growth rates of the annular and the intact sandstone specimens first increased and then decreased, while the density growth rate first decreased and then increased. The mass and volume growth rates of the annular sandstone specimens were smaller, but the density growth rate was larger. Because of the increase in water temperature, the dynamic compressive strength first increased and then decreased. The dynamic tensile strength of the annular sandstone specimen was lower. The average strain rate and peak strain also showed a quadratic function relationship of first decreasing and then increasing with the increase in water temperature. The average strain rate of the annular sandstone specimen was smaller, but the peak value changed greatly. The Brazilian disc validity condition is applicable to two failure conditions of sandstone specimens. Through XRD and SEM analysis, we found that the changes in the dynamic properties of sandstone specimens were not due to their own material composition, but to the damage to their structure caused by the temperature–water coupling effect.
The excavation of hard rock roadways in coal mines is often in the environment of underground water and high ground temperature, and it is easy to be affected by the dynamic load, which leads to roadway destruction and increases the difficulty of roadway support. The ring sandstone specimens with different inner diameters (0~25 mm) were treated with temperature and water coupled, and the dynamic compression test was produced by the Hopkinson pressure rod device (SHPB). The experimental results indicate that the coupling effect of temperature and water reduces the dynamic performance of sandstone specimens. XRD test results showed that the composition of sandstone specimens did not change before and after warm water coupling, and no new substances were found. Dynamic properties of ring sandstone specimens with different inner diameters weaken with the increase in inner diameters. With the increasing inner diameter of ring sandstone specimens, the energy dissipation per unit volume increases the dynamic compressive strength decreases, and the degree of breakage increases. Fracture morphology, average strain rate, and dynamic peak strain of ring sandstone specimens increase with inner diameter.
In order to analyze the effect of different corrosion times on the dynamic compression mechanical properties of sandstone, the coal mine sandstone specimens are subjected to corrosion in NaOH solution with pH 11 for 0 d, 1 d, 3 d, 7 d, 14 d, and 28 d, and then, the impact compression tests and Brazilian splitting test are conducted using a split Hopkinson pressure bar apparatus. The study results show that sandstone specimen mass and the average density growth rate increases, with the corrosion time first rapidly increasing and then tending to level off the trend. The impact of the compression specimens on the dynamic stress–strain curve change law is basically the same, but the time gradient curve shape is different, and the line elastic deformation stage and plastic deformation stage curve difference gradually decreases. The specimen dynamic compressive strength and the dynamic elastic modulus with corrosion time are quadratic, and the exponential function declines the relationship. After corrosion of 28 d sandstone specimens, the dynamic compressive strength and dynamic elastic modulus are much lower than the uncorroded specimens. The average strain rate and the dynamic peak strain with the corrosion time extension are a quadratic function of the increasing relationship after the corrosion effect of the sandstone dynamic peak strain, and the average strain rate is significantly greater than the uncorroded specimens. With the corrosion time extension of sandstone specimens by the impact of damage degree being increased, the 14 d and 28 d specimen ruptures’ degree is much greater than other time gradients. The dynamic tensile strength of the split specimens decreases with increasing corrosion time; the dynamic peak strain increases quadratically; and the transmitted energy also decreases with increasing corrosion time.
