TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of building materials, and in particular to an extrusion-molded carbon-mineralized fiber cement board and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] As an important cement-based composite material, fiber cement board is widely used in the fields of building walls, floors, decorative panels, etc. The traditional production process is mainly based on the papermaking method and the flow slurry method, and the core process includes the steps of slurry preparation, layer molding, steam pressure curing, etc. However, such process has the following defects: uneven dispersion of fibers, easy agglomeration of short fibers, and difficulty in uniform distribution of long fibers, resulting in uneven strength of the board; low molding efficiency, long time consumption of multi-layer paving process; high curing energy consumption, high-temperature and high-pressure environment required for steam pressure curing, and high carbon emission.

[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the extrusion molding process is gradually applied to the production of fiber cement board due to its continuous and high-efficiency characteristics, but the extrusion molding process also has various problems: firstly, cement is prone to hydration reaction during the production of fiber cement board, which causes poor plasticity of the mud, not only causing molding difficulties, increasing internal defects, and wrapping fibers with hydration products to cause uneven dispersion of fibers, but also causing the mold to be blocked during the extrusion process, affecting the production efficiency, and the increase of internal defects and uneven dispersion of fibers easily lead to extrusion cracking, insufficient density of the board, poor bending strength and water resistance, and difficulty in meeting the needs of high load or high humidity scenarios; secondly, the main component of fiber cement board, quartz sand, is prone to wear the mold during mud preparation and extrusion, causing the service life of the equipment to be shortened.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a material system and process suitable for extrusion molding to prepare fiber cement board, so as to improve the production efficiency and product performance of fiber cement board. SUMMARY

[0005] Therefore, the present application provides an extrusion-molded carbon-mineralized fiber cement board and a preparation method thereof, which are used to solve the problem of how to improve the production efficiency and product mechanical properties of fiber cement board prepared by the extrusion molding process.

[0027] In this embodiment, the plastic clay is aged to obtain a clay ball, and the aging promotes the uniform distribution of water in the clay, reduces the molding shrinkage, and improves the plasticity.

[0036] The present application is further described below through specific embodiments.

[0037] Example 1 A preparation method of an extrusion-molded carbon-mineralized fiber cement board, comprising the following steps: S1. 2 parts of pulp fibers (sulfate pretreated wood pulp, length range of 0.5-3 mm, monofilament diameter of 30-40 μm), 2 parts of polyacrylamide are dispersed in water, and then 1 part of glycerol and 0.5 part of calcium stearate are added and stirred, the stirring rate is 300 r / min, and the stirring time is 15 min, to obtain a fiber suspension, wherein the water accounts for 25% of the total mass of the dry materials (pulp fibers, polyacrylamide, glycerol, calcium stearate, powder); S2. 100 parts of calcium silicate mineral powder (γ-C2S accounts for 93.2%, and the average particle size is 21.32 μm) are added to the fiber suspension as a powder and stirred uniformly, the stirring rate is 300 r / min, the stirring time is 45 min, and kneading is performed to form a plastic mud; S3.

The fiber cement board blank is placed in a blast drying box with a temperature of 40℃ and a humidity of 30% RH for drying and pre-curing, so that the water content of the fiber cement board blank is reduced to 15%, and the pre-cured board blank is placed in a CO2 atmosphere for curing, the CO2 curing pressure is 0.2 MPa, the CO2 concentration is 99% VOL, and the CO2 curing time is 24 h, to obtain a carbon-mineralized fiber cement board.

[0038] Example 2 A preparation method of an extrusion-molded carbon-mineralized fiber cement board, other contents are the same as those in Example 1, except that the calcium silicate mineral powder is replaced by steel slag containing a calcium silicate mineral phase (γ-C2S accounts for 64.7%, and the average particle size is 14.48 μm).

[0039] Example 3 A preparation method of an extrusion-molded carbon-mineralized fiber cement board, other contents are the same as those in Example 1, except that the calcium silicate mineral powder is replaced by magnesium slag containing a calcium silicate mineral phase (γ-C2S accounts for 83.6%, and the average particle size is 17.51 μm).

[0040] Example 4 A preparation method of an extrusion-molded carbon-mineralized fiber cement board, other contents are the same as those in Example 1, except that the fiber is PAN fiber 2 parts.

[0041] Example 5 A method for preparing an extruded carbon-mineralized fiber cement board, other contents being the same as those in Example 1, except that the CO2 curing time is 2 h.

[0042] Example 6 A method for preparing an extruded carbon-mineralized fiber cement board, other contents being the same as those in Example 1, except that the CO2 curing pressure is 0.1 MPa and the concentration is 20% VOL.

[0043] Comparative Example 1 A method for preparing a fiber cement board, other contents being the same as those in Example 1, except that the amount of pulp fiber is 10 parts.

[0044] Comparative Example 2 A method for preparing a fiber cement board, other contents being the same as those in Example 1, except that no glycerol is added.

[0045] Comparative Example 3 A method for preparing a fiber cement board, other contents being the same as those in Example 1, except that no calcium stearate is added.

[0046] Comparative Example 4 A method for preparing a fiber cement board, other contents being the same as those in Example 1, except that no polyacrylamide is added.

[0047] Comparative Example 5 A method for preparing a fiber cement board, other contents being the same as those in Example 1, except that γ-C2S is replaced by cement.

[0048] Testing and Evaluation The fiber cement boards obtained in different examples and comparative examples were saturated with water for 1 d, and then performance tests were performed. The porosity, water absorption rate, and saturated flexural strength were tested according to GB / T7019-2014, and the test results are shown in Table 1.

[0049] Table 1 Test Results

[0050] It can be known from Table 1 that the carbon mineralized fiber cement board prepared by the preparation method has excellent physical and mechanical properties, and can reach the R4 strength grade of A-class board (referring to the requirements of JC / T 412.1-2018). In addition, the preparation method has important significance for building material productization of industrial solid waste (steel slag, magnesium slag). Moreover, the curing method taking CO2 curing as the strength source of the matrix has lower requirements for curing conditions, and does not need harsh conditions similar to traditional autoclave curing, and can quickly react with the powder to form a matrix mainly composed of calcium carbonate and form strength at normal temperature and pressure. The calcite crystal type-based calcium carbonate can be more conducive to improving the long-term durability of the carbon mineralized fiber cement board. The CO2 curing also has the effect of storing CO2, and has significant environmental benefits.

[0051] The technical solutions outside the proportioning range provided by the application cannot achieve the performance of the embodiments. In the proportioning, the fiber component is difficult to disperse and is easy to block the mold during extrusion, resulting in failure to form. Similarly, without adding plasticizer / lubricant / dispersant, the mud is also easy to cause problems such as difficulty in forming, surface cracking of the extruded plate blank, and increased porosity, thereby reducing the performance of the plate. The preparation method provided by the application cannot form when using cement as the powder under the same conditions. The reason is that cement is prone to hydration and hardening during stirring and preparation without adding retarder and water reducing agent, so that the plasticity of the mud is poor, the hydration product of the cement is attached to the surface of the fiber, the dispersion of the fiber is poor during mud preparation, and the extrusion process is affected. It is worth mentioning that in order to overcome the hydration of cement, the conventional method is to add a retarder to delay the hydration process of the cement, but this method will cause the plasticity of the mud to be uncontrollable during extrusion. The mud of the application does not need to add a retarder, and has good and stable plasticity.

[0052] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the application, but the protection scope of the application is not limited thereto, and any changes or replacements within the technical range disclosed by the application can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art, and should be covered within the protection scope of the application.
