TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of concrete, in particular to a freezing inhibitor for concrete used in an ultralow-temperature high-altitude environment, a freezing-resistant concrete and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the infrastructure construction landscape of China, the northern region and the high-altitude cold region occupy an important position. The northern region covers Northeast China, North China and most of Northwest China, and the duration of winter is as long as 3-5 months. The extreme low temperature is generally below -20 ℃, among which the extreme low temperature in Mohe, Northeast China, and Hailaer, Inner Mongolia, can reach -35 ℃, and the diurnal temperature difference often maintains at 10-15 ℃. At the same time, the high-altitude region in the west of China (such as the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the Pamir Plateau and the Hengduan Mountains) has an altitude of more than 3000 meters, and the altitude of some engineering road sections (such as the Queer Mountain Tunnel of the Sichuan-Tibet Railway and the Tanggula Mountain Pass section of the Qinghai-Tibet Highway) is more than 4500 meters. This region not only has the characteristics of ultralow temperature below -30 ℃, but also has a low-pressure environment with atmospheric pressure only 60%-70% of that in plain areas and oxygen partial pressure less than 70% of that in plain areas.
[0003] With the new urbanization construction in China, major projects such as winter municipal engineering (such as road renovation and bridge construction) in the northern region, energy engineering (such as wind power foundation and oil pipeline), and transportation hubs (such as highland airports and cross-river bridges) and water conservancy projects (such as highland reservoirs and water diversion tunnels) in the high-altitude region of the west of China continue to be implemented, which puts forward strict requirements for the construction adaptability and long-term durability of concrete in extreme environments.
[0004] As the core structural material for engineering construction, the performance of concrete is highly related to environmental conditions. In the conventional low-temperature environment in the northern region in winter, the performance of concrete construction needs to be guaranteed by a freezing inhibitor. If no freezing inhibitor is added, the free water in the mixing water will freeze to form ice crystals below 0 ℃, and the volume of ice crystals will expand by about 9% compared with that of liquid water, which will cause physical extrusion to the unhardened cement stone structure inside the concrete, resulting in the generation of microcracks. After the temperature rises, the ice crystals melt to form pores, which will become the channel for water penetration and freeze-thaw damage, eventually leading to a large loss of the later-stage compressive strength and flexural strength of the concrete, and seriously affecting the structural bearing capacity. Therefore, in the construction of concrete in the northern region in winter, a freezing inhibitor has become an indispensable functional admixture, and its performance directly determines the engineering quality and construction efficiency.
[0005] However, the current building material industry standard for regulating the application of freezing inhibitors, “Concrete Freezing Inhibitor” (JC 475-2004), has been difficult to adapt to the current extreme environment construction requirements. The standard was issued in 2004, and at that time there were few high-altitude extreme low-temperature engineering cases in China. The core technical indicators were designed based on the low-temperature environment below -15 ℃ in the northern plain region, and the particularity of ultralow temperature below -15 ℃ and high-altitude low-pressure environment was not considered.
[0006] With the extension of engineering construction to extreme areas, the limitations of this standard have become increasingly prominent: on the one hand, in the extremely cold northern regions (such as the Greater Khingan Mountains in Heilongjiang and Altai in Xinjiang) and the western high-altitude regions, the winter construction temperature often breaks -20 ℃, and even drops to -30 ℃. If the antifreeze agent still meets the standard of "Concrete Antifreeze" (JC 475-2004), the freezing point of the concrete mixing water can only be reduced to about -15 ℃, and it will freeze within 4-6 hours after pouring. The cement hydration reaction almost stops, which leads to the failure of concrete to form critical frost resistance strength (usually ≥3 MPa), and further causes structural frost damage. On the other hand, the standard only regulates the basic indicators of the freezing point reduction effect, early strength, and steel corrosion of the antifreeze agent, and does not involve the key performance indicators such as air content loss over time, slump retention, and bubble stability in high-altitude low-pressure environments. These indicators are the core factors that affect the workability and durability of concrete in high-altitude construction, and the lag of the standard has become an important bottleneck restricting extreme environment engineering construction.
[0007] More seriously, the high-altitude low-pressure environment will exacerbate the technical problems of concrete construction, forming a double challenge of ultra-low temperature and low pressure. In high-altitude environments, low air pressure can significantly change the physical state of freshly mixed concrete: on the one hand, the internal air of freshly mixed concrete will form tiny bubbles due to the air entrainment during mixing. In a low-pressure environment, the pressure difference inside and outside the bubble increases, leading to a significant acceleration of bubble escape rate. The rapid loss of air content directly leads to the deterioration of concrete workability, and the slump loss rate accelerates, resulting in the inability of concrete to be transported to the work surface through pumping equipment, and the problems of aggregate segregation and surface bleeding during vibration. Remedies such as increasing the amount of cement and adjusting the mixing process are necessary, which not only prolongs the construction period but also increases the cost of single concrete by 15%-20%.
[0008] On the other hand, the poor bubble stability of concrete under the ordinary antifreeze agent system further exacerbates the problem of insufficient frost resistance. The air entraining agent commonly used in ordinary antifreeze agents (such as sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate) is difficult to precisely control the bubble size and distribution due to the limitation of molecular structure, forming bubbles with a diameter of 0.1-1 mm and uneven bubble wall thickness. In a high-altitude low-pressure environment, these bubbles are easily merged to form large-sized bubbles or broken and escaped due to the pressure difference, resulting in the internal pores of hardened concrete showing uneven size and disordered distribution. During the winter freeze-thaw cycle, water will seep into the pores, and the ice expansion under low temperature will generate internal stress. After repeated action, the cement stone structure around the pores will crack. With the increase of freeze-thaw cycle times, the cracks will continuously expand and eventually lead to the peeling of the concrete surface and the attenuation of strength.
[0009] In addition, the performance defects of traditional antifreeze agents are also magnified in extreme environments. Currently, the antifreeze agents commonly used in winter construction in northern regions are still mainly single types: although chlorate antifreeze agents (such as calcium chloride) have low cost and obvious ice point reduction effect, they can accelerate the corrosion of steel bars, and in high-altitude environments with large humidity fluctuations, the corrosion rate of steel bars is 2-3 times higher than that in plain areas; although nitrate antifreeze agents (such as sodium nitrate) have no corrosion risk, they react with aluminate tricalcium in cement to generate ettringite, which can cause concrete volume expansion in low-temperature environments, and in high-altitude areas with frequent temperature drops, the expansion stress and frost heaving stress are superimposed, which can more easily lead to concrete cracking; alcohol antifreeze agents (such as ethylene glycol) have high volatility, and in high-altitude low-pressure environments, the evaporation rate increases, which not only leads to a decrease in the effective concentration of the antifreeze agent, but also increases the porosity of the concrete, resulting in a decrease in 28-day compressive strength. Even if some projects use composite antifreeze agents, they are mostly simple compounding and are not designed for high-altitude ultra-low temperature environments, and cannot simultaneously solve the four core problems of ice point reduction, strength development, air content maintenance, and bubble stability, making it difficult to meet the construction and durability requirements of current extreme environment projects.
[0010] In summary, with the deep expansion of engineering construction in northern extremely cold regions and western high-altitude regions in China, the problems of lagging standards, insufficient performance of traditional antifreeze agents, and the combined effects of extreme environments have become intertwined, leading to the difficulties of difficult construction, poor quality, and low durability of concrete construction in ultra-low temperature high-altitude environments. How to break through the -30 ℃ ultra-low temperature limit and solve the problems of rapid loss of air content, large loss of slump, and poor bubble stability caused by low air pressure in high-altitude areas has become an urgent need to ensure the quality of major projects in northern winter and western high-altitude regions and to promote the upgrading of concrete admixture technology in China, and also provides a practical background and application scenario for the research and development of new ultra-low temperature high-altitude special antifreeze agents.
