Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of magnesium-based gelling materials, and in particular to a magnesium-based gelling material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The preparation and production of widely used silicate cement (PC) is accompanied by the consumption of a large amount of calcium raw materials, mainly limestone, and at the same time generates a large amount of energy consumption and releases a large amount of carbon dioxide. In order to reduce carbon emissions, the use of technical routes that replace or partially replace silicate cement is conducive to reducing carbon emissions. At present, calcined magnesite is a new magnesium-based binder material. Its distribution area is less affected by regional factors and its reserves are huge. It is used as a preliminary alternative material for silicate cement. However, the cementitious material prepared by calcined magnesite as a magnesium-based binder material has the problems of poor early mechanical properties and poor carbon fixation effect.

[0015] Preferably, the weight ratio of the magnesium oxide to the silicon dioxide is 61:3.

[0016] Using the above technical solution, in this application, the hydration and carbonation reactions of magnesium oxide cement are shown in the following formula:

[0017] MgO+H 2 O→Mg(OH) 2 ;

[0018] 2Mg(OH) 2 +CO 2 +2H 2 O→MgCO 3 Mg(OH) 2 ·3H 2 O;

[0019] Mg(OH) 2 +CO 2 +2H 2 O→MgCO 3 ·3H 2 O;

[0020] 5Mg(OH) 2 +4CO 2 →4MgCO 3 Mg(OH) 2 ·4H 2 O;

[0021] 5Mg(OH) 2 +4CO 2 +H 2 O→4MgCO 3 Mg(OH) 2 ·5H 2 O;

[0022] On the one hand, it is beneficial to absorb and utilize carbon dioxide in the matrix of the magnesium-based gel material and the air to fix carbon and reduce carbon emissions. On the other hand, it is beneficial to the formation of hydrated magnesium carbonate and improves the compressive strength of the magnesium-based gel material.

[0032] 2. The present application reduces the formation of brucite on the surface of magnesium oxide by selecting a carbonation aid, thereby expanding the reaction surface area, carrying out continuous hydration and carbonation, and further improving the carbonation degree (carbonation degree) and compressive strength.

The present application controls the carbon dioxide concentration and relative humidity conditions during curing to meet the optimal carbon dioxide concentration for the development of the strength of the solid-liquid mixture while providing the water consumption required for the carbonation reaction. The combined effect is beneficial to the hydration and carbonation reactions, thereby improving the compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious material.

[0068] Results Analysis

[0069] According to Table 1-2 and Figure 1-5 The data and graphs provided are further analyzed for this application.

[0070] Reference Figure 1-5 The thermal decomposition process of magnesium-based cementitious materials is divided into three stages. The first stage is the dehydration of bound water in magnesium-based cementitious materials below 300°C, the second stage is the decomposition of uncarbonized brucite at 300-460°C, and the third stage is the dehydroxylation and decarbonization of magnesium-based cementitious materials at 460-900°C. The deconvolution of the weight loss curve is used to distinguish different decomposition stages, and the area corresponding to each phase decomposition is obtained to calculate the CO 2 Sequestration ratio, CO 2 The higher the solid storage ratio, the higher the carbonization degree (carbonation degree) of the magnesium-based cementitious material. 2 The CO sequestration ratio is higher than that of the comparative examples 1-3. 2 The solid-storage ratio indicates that the carbonation degree of the magnesium-based cementitious materials of Examples 1-11 of the present application is higher than that of the comparative examples 1-3, and the 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious materials of Examples 1-11 of the present application are much higher than those of the comparative examples 1-3.

[0071] Taking Example 2 as a reference, Examples 1 and 3 show the effect of the ratio of water to magnesium oxide cement on the carbonation degree and compressive strength of magnesium-based cementitious materials, wherein the carbonation degree and compressive strength of magnesium-based cementitious materials in Example 2 are 2 The solid storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious materials of Example 1 and Example 3 are all higher than CO 2 The solid-storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength indicate that controlling the water-cement ratio to 0.55 is beneficial to improving the CO 2Solid-storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength.

[0072] Taking Example 2 as a reference, Example 4 shows the effect of the type of hydrating agent on the carbonation degree and compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious material. 2 The solid storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength are all higher than those of the magnesium-based cementitious material in Example 2. 2 The solid-storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength indicate that the use of magnesium acetate as a hydrating agent is beneficial to improving the CO 2 Solid-storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength.

[0073] Taking Example 2 as a reference, Examples 5-7 show the effects of the types and proportions of carbonating agents on the carbonation degree and compressive strength of magnesium-based cementitious materials. 2 The solid storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength are all higher than those of the magnesium-based cementitious material in Example 2. 2 The solid-storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength indicate that the use of sodium sesquicarbonate dihydrate as a carbonating agent is more beneficial to improving the CO content of magnesium-based cementitious materials than that of sodium bicarbonate as a carbonating agent. 2 Solid-storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength. On the other hand, it can be seen from Examples 6 and 7 that after adding hydrogen magnesite seeds, the CO 2 The improvement of solid storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength is much higher than that of Example 6 compared with Example 5. 2 The increases in solid-storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength indicate that the use of sodium sesquicarbonate dihydrate and hydrogen magnesite seeds as carbonation agents is effective in improving the CO2 content of magnesium-based cementitious materials. 2 There is a synergistic effect in terms of solid-storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength.

[0074] Taking Example 2 as a reference, Examples 8-11 demonstrate the effects of carbon dioxide concentration and relative humidity on the carbonation degree and compressive strength of magnesium-based cementitious materials during the curing process, wherein the CO2 solidification ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious materials of Example 2 are all higher than those of the magnesium-based cementitious materials of Examples 8-11, indicating that controlling the carbon dioxide concentration condition to 10% is beneficial to improving the CO2 solidification ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious materials, and controlling the relative humidity condition to 78% is beneficial to improving the CO2 solidification ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious materials.

[0075] Taking Example 2 as a reference, the CO2 solid storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious material obtained by using sodium carbonate as the carbonating agent instead of sodium bicarbonate in Comparative Example 1 are much lower than the CO2 solid storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious material in Example 2, indicating that the use of sodium bicarbonate and sodium sesquicarbonate dihydrate as the carbonating agent is beneficial to greatly improve the carbonation degree and compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious material. Comparative Examples 2 and 3 show the influence of whether to add a hydrating agent and the type of hydrating agent on the carbonation degree and compressive strength of magnesium-based cementitious materials. In Comparative Example 2, the CO2 solid storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious material obtained by using magnesium chloride as a hydrating agent to replace magnesium acetate are much lower than the CO2 solid storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious material in Example 2. In Comparative Example 3, the CO2 solid storage ratio, 14d compressive strength and 28d compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious material obtained without using a hydrating agent are further reduced on the basis of Comparative Example 2, indicating that the use of magnesium acetate and sodium chloride as hydrating agents is beneficial to significantly improve the carbonation degree and compressive strength of the magnesium-based cementitious material.
