[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. Where specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall apply. Reagents or instruments whose manufacturers are not specified are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.

[0037] The following provides a detailed description of the ultrafine cementitious material provided in this application, its preparation method, and its application.

[0038] This application proposes an ultrafine cementitious material, the raw materials of which, by weight, include 45-55 parts slag powder, 13-25 parts steel slag powder, 26-37 parts fly ash, and 0.05-0.2 parts solubilizing and activating agent.

[0039] For reference, the amount of slag powder can be 45 parts, 46 parts, 47 parts, 48 ​​parts, 49 parts, 50 parts, 51 parts, 52 parts, 53 parts, 54 parts or 55 parts, or any other value within the range of 45-55 parts.

[0040] The amount of steel slag powder can be 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 or 25 parts, or any other value within the range of 13-25 parts.

[0041] The amount of fly ash can be 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36 or 37 parts, or any other value within the range of 26-37 parts.

[0042] The amount of solubilizing activator can be 0.05 parts, 0.08 parts, 0.1 parts, 0.12 parts, 0.15 parts, 0.18 parts or 0.2 parts, or any other value within the range of 0.05-0.2 parts.

[0043] The ternary system composed of slag powder, steel slag powder, and fly ash fully leverages the composite synergistic effect of the raw materials. Slag powder provides high activity, while the spherical glassy particles in fly ash can act as ball bearings to improve the fluidity and water retention of the mixture. Steel slag powder is hard and mainly serves as a grinding medium to grind other powders.

[0044] It should be noted that if the amount of slag powder is less than 45 parts, it is detrimental to the activity of the entire ternary system; the more slag powder used, the higher the activity index of the ternary system, but if the amount of slag powder is more than 55 parts, it will affect the later strength. If the amount of steel slag powder is less than 13 parts, its role as a grinding medium will be reduced; steel slag powder helps to improve the early activity index, but if the amount of steel slag powder is more than 25 parts, it is detrimental to the later activity index. If the amount of fly ash is less than 26 parts, it is detrimental to the fluidity and water retention of the mixture; if the amount of fly ash is more than 37 parts, it is detrimental to the later strength and durability of the cementitious material.

[0045] In some embodiments, the raw materials for the ultrafine cementitious material include 50 parts slag powder, 20 parts steel slag powder, 30 parts fly ash, and 0.1 parts solubilizing activator. Under this ratio, the ultrafine cementitious material can achieve better results.

[0046] In this application, the slag powder, also known as granulated blast furnace slag powder, contains CaO, SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, and MgO in its chemical composition.

[0047] In some embodiments, the chemical composition of the slag powder includes 44-48% CaO, 22-26% SiO2, 12-16% Al2O3, 0.6-1% Fe2O3, and 10-14% MgO. In some specific embodiments, the chemical composition of the slag powder includes 45.56% CaO, 23.69% SiO2, 13.37% Al2O3, 0.86% Fe2O3, 11.52% MgO, and 0.23% loss on ignition.

[0048] In some embodiments, the density of the slag powder is 2.6-3.2 kg / m³. 3 In some specific implementations, the density of the slag powder is 2.95 kg / m³. 3 .

[0049] By controlling the density within the above range, the pores inside the cementitious material can be smaller and fewer, resulting in a denser structure that is beneficial for improving the strength of the cementitious material. The same principle applies to steel slag powder and fly ash.

[0050] In some embodiments, the specific surface area of ​​the slag powder is 420-430 m². 2 / kg. In some specific embodiments, the specific surface area of ​​the slag powder is 425m². 2 / kg.

[0051] By controlling the specific surface area within the above range, the contact area between particles and water can be increased during the hydration reaction to accelerate the reaction, thereby improving the gel activity of industrial solid waste. The same applies to steel slag powder and fly ash.

[0052] In some typical implementations, the slag powder is S95 grade ore powder.

[0053] In this application, the chemical composition of steel slag powder mainly contains CaO and SiO2, with the remainder including Al2O3, Fe2O3, and MgO.

[0054] In some embodiments, the chemical composition of the steel slag powder includes 40-44% CaO, 16-20% SiO2, 3-6% Al2O3, 18-22% Fe2O3, and 8-12% MgO. In some specific embodiments, the chemical composition of the steel slag powder includes 41.46% CaO, 17.46% SiO2, 4.67% Al2O3, 20.58% Fe2O3, 10.83% MgO, and 1.35% loss on ignition.

[0055] In some embodiments, the density of steel slag powder is 3-3.6 kg / m³. 3 In some specific implementations, the density of the steel slag powder is 3.36 kg / m³. 3 .

[0056] In some embodiments, the specific surface area of ​​the steel slag powder is 460-470 m². 2 / kg. In some specific embodiments, the specific surface area of ​​the steel slag powder is 465m². 2 / kg.

[0057] In this application, the chemical composition of fly ash mainly includes CaO, SiO2 and Al2O3, and also contains Fe2O3 and MgO, and may further contain alkali metal oxides (such as sodium oxide and potassium oxide).

[0058] In some embodiments, the chemical composition of fly ash includes 9-14% CaO, 50-56% SiO2, 20-26% Al2O3, 3-6% Fe2O3, and 1-4% MgO, further including 1-4 wt% Na2O and 1.02-2.14% K2O. In some specific embodiments, the chemical composition of fly ash includes 10.11% CaO, 52.32% SiO2, 22.41% Al2O3, 4.3% Fe2O3, 1.56% MgO, and 4.23% loss on ignition.

[0059] In some implementations, the density of fly ash is 2-2.6 kg / m³. 3 In some specific implementations, the density of fly ash is 2.36 kg / m³. 3 .

[0060] In some implementations, the fly ash is Class 1 ash from power plants.

[0061] Continuing from the above, by combining slag powder, steel slag powder and fly ash, the chemical components can play an activating role. For example, alkali metal compounds can activate SiO2 and Al2O3, promoting the formation of aluminum-oxygen-silicate tetrahedral three-dimensional network polymers, which in turn helps to improve the activity and mechanical properties of ultrafine cementitious materials.

[0062] In this application, the solubilizing activator contains at least one of phytic acid, alcohol polymers, glycosyl biosurfactants, and silicate compounds.

[0063] By using solubilizing and activating agents, the silicon-oxygen tetrahedra and aluminum-oxygen tetrahedra in the glassy matrix of industrial solid waste can be depolymerized into H3SiO4. - and H3AlO4 2- When Ca is present in the hydrated slurry 2+ OH - It can also accelerate the hydration reaction, generating hydration products such as CSH (calcium silicate hydrate) gel and AFt (ettringite). Among them, CSH gel is the main source of strength of solid waste cementitious materials, while AFt plays an important role in the early setting and hardening of solid waste cementitious materials.

[0064] In some preferred embodiments, the solubilizing activator contains phytic acid, alcohol polymers, glycosyl biosurfactants, and silicate compounds, which can achieve a more prominent solubilizing and activating effect and improve the strength of the ultrafine cementitious material.

[0065] For example, the mass ratio of phytic acid, alcohol polymers, glycosyl biosurfactants, and silicate compounds can be (9-20):(1-5):(1-5):(0.1-1), such as 9:1:1:0.1, 9:1:1:0.5, 9:1:1:1, 9:1:2:0.1, 9:1:2:0.5, 9:1:2:1, 9:1:3:0.1, 9:1:3:0.5, 9:1:3:1, 9:1:4:0.1, 9:1:4:0.5, 9:1:4:1, 9:1:5:0.1, 9:1:5:0.5, 9:1:5:1, 9:2:1:0.1, 9:2:1:0.5, 9:2:1:1, 9:2:2:0.1. 9:2:2:0.5, 9:2:2:1, 9:2:3:0.1, 9:2:3:0.5, 9:2:3:1, 9:2:4:0.1, 9:2:4:0.5, 9:2:4:1, 9:2:5:0.1, 9:2:5:0.5, 9:2:5:1, 9:3:1:0.1, 9:3:1:0.5, 9: 3:1:1, 9:3:2:0.1, 9:3:2:0.5, 9:3:2:1, 9:3:3:0.1, 9:3:3:0.5, 9:3:3:1, 9:3:4:0.1, 9:3:4:0.5, 9:3:4:1, 9:3:5:0.1, 9:3:5:0.5, 9:3:5:1, 9:4:1:0 1, 9:4:1:0.5, 9:4:1:1, 9:4:2:0.1, 9:4:2:0.5, 9:4:2:1, 9:4:3:0.1, 9:4:3:0.5, 9:4:3:1, 9:4:4:0.1, 9:4:4:0.5, 9:4:4:1, 9:4:5:0.1, 9:4:5:0.5 9:4:5:1, 9:5:1:0.1, 9:5:1:0.5, 9:5:1:1, 9:5:2:0.1, 9:5:2:0.5, 9:5:2:1, 9:5:3:0.1, 9:5:3:0.5, 9:5:3:1, 9:5:4:0.1, 9:5:4:0.5, 9:5:4:1, 9:5: 5:0.1, 9:5:5:0.5, 9:5:5:1, 15:1:1:0.1, 15:1:1:0.5, 15:1:1:1, 15:1:2:0.1, 15:1:2:0.5, 15:1:2:1, 15:1:3:0.1, 15:1:3:0.5, 15:1:3:1, 15:1:4:0 1, 15:1:4:0.5, 15:1:4:1, 15:1:5:0.1, 15:1:5:0.5, 15:1:5:1, 15:2:1:0.1, 15:2:1:0.5, 15:2:1:1, 15:2:2:0.1, 15:2:2:0.5, 15:2:2:1, 15:2:3:0.1、15:2:3:0.5、15:2:3:1、15:2:4:0.1、15:2:4:0.5、15:2:4:1、15:2:5:0.1、15:2:5:0.5、15:2:5:1、15:3:1:0.1、15:3:1:0.5、15:3:1:1、15:3:2:0.1、15:3:2:0.5、15:3:2:1、15:3:3:0.1、15:3:3:0.5、15:3:3:1、15:3:4:0.1、15:3:4:0.5、15:3:4:1、15:3:5:0.1、15:3:5:0.5、15:3:5:1、15:4:1:0.1、15:4:1:0.5、15:4:1:1、15:4:2:0.1、15:4:2:0.5、15:4:2:1、15:4:3:0.1、15:4:3:0.5、15:4:3:1、15:4:4:0.1、15:4:4:0.5、15:4:4:1、15:4:5:0.1、15:4:5:0.5、15:4:5:1、15:5:1:0.1、15:5:1:0.5、15:5:1:1、15:5:2:0.1、15:5:2:0.5、15:5:2:1、15:5:3:0.1、15:5:3:0.5、15:5:3:1、15:5:4:0.1、15:5:4:0.5、15:5:4:1、15:5:5:0.1、15:5:5:0.5、15:5:5:1;20:1:1:0.1、20:1:1:0.5、20:1:1:1、20:1:2:0.1、20:1:2:0.5、20:1:2:1、20:1:3:0.1、20:1:3:0.5、20:1:3:1、20:1:4:0.1、20:1:4:0.5、20:1:4:1、20:1:5:0.1、20:1:5:0.5、20:1:5:1、20:2:1:0.1、20:2:1:0.5、20:2:1:1、20:2:2:0.1、20:2:2:0.5、20:2:2:1、20:2:3:0.1、20:2:3:0.5、20:2:3:1、20:2:4:0.1、20:2:4:0.5、20:2:4:1、20:2:5:0.1、20:2:5:0.5、20:2:5:1、20:3:1:0.1、20:3:1:0.5、20:3:1:1、20:3:2:0.1、20:3:2:0.5、20:3:2:1、20:3:3:0.1、20:3:3:0.5、20:3:3:1、20:3:4:0.1、20:3:4:0.5、20:3:4:1、20:3:5:0.1, 20:3:5:0.5, 20:3:5:1, 20:4:1:0.1, 20:4:1:0.5, 20:4:1:1, 20:4:2:0.1, 20:4:2:0.5, 20:4:2:1, 20:4:3:0.1, 20:4:3:0.5, 20:4:3:1, 20:4:4:0.1, 20:4:4:0.5, 20:4:4:1, 20:4:5:0.1, 20:4:5:0.5, 20:4:5:1, 20:5:1:0. 1. The possible values ​​are 20:5:1:0.5, 20:5:1:1, 20:5:2:0.1, 20:5:2:0.5, 20:5:2:1, 20:5:3:0.1, 20:5:3:0.5, 20:5:3:1, 20:5:4:0.1, 20:5:4:0.5, 20:5:4:1, 20:5:5:0.1, 20:5:5:0.5, or 20:5:5:1, etc., or any other value within the range (9-20):(1-5):(1-5):(0.1-1).

[0066] The main function of phytic acid is to enhance the activity of materials such as slag and steel slag, promoting their gelation and hardening processes. Insufficient dosage will not fully activate these materials, leading to incomplete gelation and affecting the strength and hardening speed of the cementitious material. Excessive dosage may result in an overly acidic environment, potentially causing excessive dissolution of some components in the slag and steel slag, disrupting the material's stability and gelation reaction, and ultimately leading to a decline in the performance of the ultrafine cementitious material.

[0067] Alcohols are primarily used to maintain the dispersion of cementitious materials. Insufficient dosage may lead to particle aggregation, reducing the performance of ultrafine cementitious materials. Excessive dosage may result in over-dispersion of the material, weakening the interaction between particles and making it difficult to form a solid cementitious material.

[0068] Insufficient amounts of glycosyl biosurfactants may lead to the aggregation of ultrafine particles, reducing the homogeneity of the gelling material. Excessive amounts can easily cause over-dispersion of the material, weakening the interaction between particles, potentially increasing viscosity and making it difficult to form a solid gelling material.

[0069] Silicate compounds primarily act as coagulants during the gelation process, helping to improve the gel strength of the material. Insufficient dosage can lead to incomplete hardening, affecting the material's strength and durability. Excessive dosage may cause over-gelation, preventing the sufficient formation of hydration products, resulting in reduced material strength and performance.

[0070] Optionally, the aforementioned plant acids may include, for example, at least one of pine acid and caffeic acid. Alcoholic polymers may include, for example, at least one of PVA and PVM. Glycosyl biosurfactants may include, for example, at least one of octyl ether sulfate, dodecyl ether sulfate, and polysorbate ether sulfate. Silicate compounds may include, for example, at least one of sodium silicate and aluminum silicate.

[0071] The density of the above-mentioned solubilizing activator can be 1.05-1.26 g / cm³. 3 .

[0072] In some embodiments, the specific surface area of ​​the ultrafine cementitious material provided in this application is 720-740 m². 2 / kg. In some embodiments, the 7-day activity of the ultrafine cementitious material provided in this application is 78-88%, and the 28-day activity is 98-115%.

[0073] In other words, the ultrafine cementitious material provided in this application has good and long-lasting cementitious activity, and the ultrafine cementitious material has low porosity, low total pore surface area, high density, and high compressive strength.

[0074] Accordingly, this application also provides a method for preparing an ultrafine cementitious material as described in any of the foregoing embodiments, comprising the following steps: mixing and grinding the raw materials in proportion.

[0075] In some implementations, all raw materials can be mixed and ground in one go.

[0076] In some preferred embodiments, slag powder, steel slag powder and fly ash are first mixed, crushed, pretreated and ground, and then a solubilizing and activating agent is added for ultrafine grinding.

[0077] The pretreatment grinding time can be 8-12 minutes, such as 8 minutes, 9 minutes, 10 minutes, 11 minutes, or 12 minutes. The ultrafine grinding time can be 48-52 minutes, such as 48 minutes, 49 minutes, 50 minutes, 51 minutes, or 52 minutes.

[0078] The above-mentioned pre-treatment grinding not only allows for the pre-treatment grinding of difficult-to-grind raw materials, but also enables the synergistic grinding of various raw materials together. Subsequently, the materials are placed in an ultrafine mill for ultrafine grinding under the action of a solubilizing and activating agent, which can achieve better grinding results with lower power consumption.

[0079] It should be noted that this application utilizes physical grinding to improve the activity of cementitious materials from solid wastes such as slag, steel slag, and fly ash. Specifically, combining pre-treatment grinding with ultrafine grinding achieves physical activation (mechanical activation). Mechanical force disrupts the material surface, reduces particle size, alters crystal structure and surface physicochemical properties, and distorts the mineral's crystal structure, decreasing crystallinity and gradually leading to lattice dislocations, defects, and recrystallization. The SiO2 and Al2O3 contained in the raw materials become soluble, forming an amorphous form coated on the particle surface that is easily soluble in water, allowing water molecules to more easily penetrate and accelerate hydration reactions. This, in turn, improves the cementitious activity of industrial solid waste.

[0080] The ultrafine grinding process described in this application mainly aims to grind the material to a fineness of 720-740 μm. 2 While the grinding efficiency is high, ultrafine grinding consumes a significant amount of energy. Therefore, this application addresses this issue by pre-grinding the materials to reduce their specific surface area to a certain fineness, ensuring thorough mixing, and then adding them to the ultrafine mill, thereby improving grinding efficiency and effect. Furthermore, since different materials have varying grindability, directly ultrafine grinding all materials would not yield optimal grinding results.

[0081] In addition, this application also provides an application of the ultrafine cementitious material as described in any of the foregoing embodiments, for example, it can be used in building materials or roadbed materials.

[0082] For reference, this ultrafine cementitious material can be used as a concrete admixture or aggregate in building materials. For example, it can be used in coastal defense wave-damping slabs, road concrete, or non-structural concrete.

[0118] Comparative Example 13

[0119] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that all raw materials were not pre-treated and ground, but were directly subjected to ball ultrafine grinding.

[0120] Comparative Example 14

[0121] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the slag powder, steel slag powder, and fly ash are mixed, crushed, pre-treated, and ground, and then a solubilizing and activating agent is added for ordinary ball milling. The specific surface area of ​​the material after ball milling does not exceed 700 m². 2 / kg.

[0122] Test case

[0123] The ultrafine cementitious materials of each embodiment and comparative example were added to the cement matrix at a weight of 50 wt%. The cement matrix was composed of standard sand and cement in a mass ratio of 1:3.

[0124] The standard sand used was produced in Xiamen. The cement was Conch P·O 42.5 ordinary Portland cement. The specific surface area of ​​the cement was 362 m². 2 / kg, density is 3.18kg / m³ 3 The loss on ignition was 3.7%, the 3-day compressive strength was 25.6 MPa, the 7-day compressive strength was 40.2 MPa, and the 28-day compressive strength was 54.7 MPa.

[0125] ① The activity, specific surface area, and density of the ultrafine cementitious materials obtained in Comparative Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-14 are shown in Table 2.

[0132] ③ The particle size distribution of the ultrafine cementitious materials obtained in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 is shown in Table 4.

[0134]

[0135]

[0136] ④ The cement pastes obtained from Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 were subjected to structural tests after 28 days of hydration. The results are as follows: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown.

[0137] The microstructure of the cement paste hardened over 28 days revealed that the hydration products of the blank mineral powder sample (Comparative Example 1) were mainly flocculent CSH, with a relatively loose structure and only partial cross-linking to form a network structure. In contrast, the hydration products of Comparative Example 2 exhibited more CSH gel phase, which was evenly distributed and cross-linked, resulting in a denser overall structure. This indicates a higher degree of hydration, and the overall density of the hydration products was higher than that of Comparative Example 1.

[0138] ⑤ The cement pastes obtained in Comparative Example 2 and Example 1 were subjected to structural tests after 28 days of hydration. The results are as follows: Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, where, Figure 3 for Figure 2 A magnified view of a portion of the image.

[0139] Depend on Figure 3 It can be seen that the particles in Comparative Example 2 exhibit dissolution on their surface and agglomeration due to uneven distribution. However, they can effectively fill the gaps between hydration products. Utilizing their adsorption properties and small specific surface area, a secondary hydration reaction occurs in the gaps, which increases the density of the matrix structure and effectively fills the pores.

[0140] Depend on Figure 4 As can be seen, in Example 1, the addition of 0.1% solubilizing and activating agent caused the particles and hydration products to connect with each other and form a layered stack. The agglomerated ultrafine solid waste cementitious material was dispersed and embedded in the matrix structure, refining the cement pores and resulting in a higher density and lower porosity of the pore structure.

[0141] ⑥ The pore structure of the products obtained in Comparative Example 2 and Example 1 was tested using the mercury intrusion porosimetry method, and the results are shown in Table 5.

[0142] Table 5 Test Results

[0143] Porosity (%) <![CDATA[Total pore surface area (m 2 / g)]]> Comparative Example 2 12.3 25.23 Example 1 10.4 22.79

[0144] As can be seen from Table 5, after adding the solubilizing and activating agent, the porosity and total pore surface area of ​​the product showed a decreasing trend, indicating that the density of the cement-based material improved, resulting in better mechanical properties. The role of ultrafine cementitious materials in the overall system during the later stage of hydration is not only physical filling, but also secondary chemical hydration reaction. The fineness decreases, the filling effect improves, and it is more conducive to the development of compressive strength and volume stability.

[0145] In summary, the ultrafine cementitious material provided in this application has good and long-lasting cementitious activity. Furthermore, the ultrafine cementitious material has low porosity, low total pore surface area, high density, and high compressive strength. It can replace the method of using only S95 grade mineral powder in building materials or roadbed materials, which is conducive to reducing costs and provides a new way to dispose of solid waste such as steel slag.

Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art.
