High-Pressure Densification of Composite Lunar Cement
Abstract
In order to minimize the binder content in composite lunar “cement,” this paper uses JSC-1A lunar soil simulant and unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) to produce low-binder-content composite. Important system parameters such as compression pressure, compression duration, vibration, loading rate, loading number, and initial grain size distribution are analyzed. The most critical control variable is the compression pressure: at ∼350 MPa, the binder content is reduced to 6.5–8.7% by weight and the flexural strength is approximately 30–40 MPa. This research is important for in situ resource utilization for future lunar base construction and expansion.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
