Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of concrete admixtures, and in particular to a self-assembly method of an ester polycarboxylate water reducer and gamma-cyclodextrin and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, ether polycarboxylate water reducers have been welcomed by manufacturers and users due to their convenient raw material supply, simple production process and stable products. However, the application of machine-made sand is constantly consumed, and many projects use washed sand to replace machine-made sand. The application of ether polycarboxylate water reducers in concrete is becoming more and more difficult. It is sensitive to the dosage in washed sand. Because the relatively fine components in washed sand are washed away, the concrete produced using it is prone to problems such as segregation and bleeding. The concrete has poor workability and poor slump retention. Compared with ether polycarboxylate water reducers, ester polycarboxylate water reducers have low dosage sensitivity and good concrete workability. Therefore, the use of ester polycarboxylate water reducers in coastal areas is better than that of ether polycarboxylate water reducers. In addition, when ether polycarboxylate water reducers are used in high-strength and high-grade concrete, there are technical difficulties such as slow reaction, high concrete viscosity, and difficulty in pumping high-rise buildings. The use of ester polycarboxylate water reducers can reduce the viscosity of concrete to achieve pumping.

[0003] Patent No. CN201911165236.X discloses a method for preparing an ester polycarboxylate water reducer. This method mainly focuses on the air entrainment and foam stabilization effect, and the collapse protection performance has not been improved. Patent No. CN 105778023 A discloses a method for preparing a sulfonated cyclodextrin polycarboxylate water reducer. The cyclodextrin sulfonation product is esterified with maleic anhydride and then grafted to the side chain of the polycarboxylate water reducer. This method uses a sulfonation reaction, which has high energy consumption and is not conducive to production. Patent No. CN201710038165.1 discloses a method for preparing a modified cyclodextrin self-assembly type ether polycarboxylate water reducer, which focuses on introducing lipophilic small monomers to improve the adaptability of polycarboxylate water reducer in concrete.

[0004] The above disclosed technologies all modify the polycarboxylate water-reducing agent with different focuses, and the reaction cost is increased by means of modifying cyclodextrin, which is not conducive to large-scale production. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention aims to provide a self-assembly method of an ester polycarboxylate water reducer and gamma-cyclodextrin and its application, so as to solve the problems of poor neutralization property of washed sand, insufficient slump retention performance and reduced concrete viscosity in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme: a self-assembled inclusion compound of an ester polycarboxylate water reducer and γ-cyclodextrin, the general structural formula of which is shown in formula (I):

[0007] In formula (I), X, Y, and Z are the degrees of polymerization and are all positive integers, X=40-100, Y=20-50, Z=17-30, and n=13, 23, or 44.

[0008] On the other hand, the present technical solution provides a self-assembly method of an ester polycarboxylate water reducer and γ-cyclodextrin, comprising the following steps:

[0009] Step 1: dissolving acrylic acid in water to prepare a mixed solution A of acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and water; mixing a reducing agent, a chain transfer agent and water to prepare a mixed solution B; and heat-retaining an oxidant, the A solution and the B solution to obtain a viscous polymer liquid polyacrylic acid;

[0010] Step 2: Under elevated temperature conditions, dissolving γ-cyclodextrin in water to obtain a saturated aqueous solution of γ-cyclodextrin, adding polyacrylic acid and stirring to react to obtain a γ-cyclodextrin / polyacrylic acid inclusion complex;

[0011] Step 3: Add the pre-dissolved polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether and the catalyst p-toluenesulfonic acid to the γ-cyclodextrin / polyacrylic acid inclusion complex prepared in step 2, and stir to react to obtain a self-assembled inclusion complex of the ester polycarboxylic acid water reducer and γ-cyclodextrin.

[0012] Preferably, as an improvement, in step 1, the molar ratio of acrylic acid to methacrylic acid is 3-2:1.

[0013] In the present technical solution, the addition ratio of acrylic acid to methacrylic acid has a great influence on the water reduction rate of the water reducer. Too little addition of acrylic acid will lead to a low water reduction rate of the self-assembled inclusion complex of the ester polycarboxylic acid water reducer and γ-cyclodextrin. Too much addition of acrylic acid will lead to a high water reduction rate and the collapse retention performance of the ester polycarboxylic acid water reducer will deteriorate.

[0014] Preferably, as an improvement, in step 1, the oxidant is one or a combination of hydrogen peroxide and persulfate, and the amount of the oxidant added is 2-4% of the total mass of acrylic acid and methacrylic acid.

[0015] In the technical solution, the oxidant and the reductant form a redox system, which allows the free radical polymerization to react at room temperature.

[0016] Preferably, as an improvement, in step one, the reducing agent is at least one of Vc, bleaching powder, E51, and sodium bisulfite, and the amount of the reducing agent added is 15-20% of the mass of the oxidant.

[0017] Preferably, as an improvement, in step one, the chain transfer agent is at least one of thioglycolic acid, mercaptopropionic acid, mercaptoethanol, sodium hypophosphite, and sodium methyl methacrylate sulfonate, and the added amount of the chain transfer agent is 0.8-1.2% of the total mass of acrylic acid and methacrylic acid.

[0018] In the technical solution, the chain transfer agent can adjust the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the ester polycarboxylate water reducer, and the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution affect the performance of the self-assembled inclusion complex of the ester polycarboxylate water reducer and γ-cyclodextrin.

[0019] Preferably, as an improvement, in step 2, the molar ratio of polyacrylic acid to γ-cyclodextrin is 1 to 2:1; the heating temperature is 60° C., and the stirring reaction time is 1 h.

[0020] Preferably, as an improvement, in step three, the acid-ether ratio of acrylic acid and methacrylic acid to polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether is 3.5-5:1; and the added amount of the catalyst p-toluenesulfonic acid accounts for 1-2% of the total mass of polyacrylic acid and polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether.

[0021] Preferably, as an improvement, in step three, the polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether is one or a combination of two or more having a degree of polymerization of 13, 23, or 44.

[0022] In the technical solution, the polymerization degree of polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether can affect the side chain distribution of the self-assembled inclusion complex of ester polycarboxylate water reducer and γ-cyclodextrin, and the side chain distribution affects the water reduction rate and collapse retention performance of the self-assembled inclusion complex of ester polycarboxylate water reducer and γ-cyclodextrin.

[0023] Preferably, as an improvement, a self-assembled inclusion complex of an ester polycarboxylate water-reducing agent and γ-cyclodextrin is used in the preparation of a concrete slump-reducing agent.

[0024] The principles and advantages of this solution are:

[0025] 1. In the self-assembly of an ester polycarboxylate water-reducing agent and γ-cyclodextrin provided by the technical solution, γ-cyclodextrin presents a hollow truncated cone cavity structure in space, which can embed guest molecules. The present invention includes part of the carboxyl groups on the molecular chain of the polycarboxylate water-reducing agent by γ-cyclodextrin, and when the γ-cyclodextrin is high pH in the concrete, it slowly falls off the carboxyl groups of the guest molecular chain, so that the carboxyl groups are slowly released, thereby achieving a sustained release effect, and further enhancing the slump retention performance of the polycarboxylate water-reducing agent in concrete.

[0026] 2. The technical solution forms polyacrylic acid by first polymerizing and then forming an inclusion complex with γ-cyclodextrin. Since γ-cyclodextrin exists in the side chain, the esterification reaction with polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether is meta-esterification, so that the molecular weight distribution has a regular sequence, showing excellent water reduction rate and slump retention performance.

[0027] 3. This technical solution uses a method of uniformly dropping polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether, which results in a mild reaction and a high esterification rate, thereby improving the water reduction rate and slump retention performance.

[0028] 4. The γ-cyclodextrin used in this technical solution does not need to be modified, and the self-assembly product is easy to prepare, giving the polycarboxylic acid water reducer excellent slump-retaining performance; there is no need to compound the slump-retaining agent in engineering applications, thereby achieving the purpose of saving mother liquor costs.
