Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of concrete, in particular to a concrete viscosity modifier, a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the rapid construction of economic highways, railways, hydropower stations, civil buildings and other projects, higher requirements are put forward for the performance of high-performance concrete. However, in the actual application process, due to the unstable composition of cement, poor adaptability of admixtures to cement, low content of powder and mud in sand and stone and other coarse and fine aggregates and other factors, the cohesiveness of concrete is poor, and phenomena such as segregation and bleeding are prone to occur.

[0003] In order to solve the problems of segregation, bleeding and poor workability of concrete, viscosity modifiers are often added in construction to increase the cohesiveness and water retention performance of concrete, avoid the phenomenon of "slurry and aggregate separation", improve the homogeneity of concrete slurry and improve the workability of concrete. However, most thickeners, such as cellulose, xanthan gum, sodium alginate, polyvinyl alcohol, polyacryl, EVA powder, sodium polyacrylate and the like, have incompatibility problems with polycarboxylic acid water reducing agent, and the air entraining effect of the above thickeners will also lead to low later strength of concrete.

[0004] Patent CN 113683341A discloses a concrete viscosity modifier and a preparation method thereof. The viscosity modifier comprises the following main components and weight fractions: branched starch 0.1-8 parts, butanediol 1-8 parts, dipropylene glycol dimethyl ether 1-12 parts, xanthan gum 10-40 parts, cyclic dextrin 10-20 parts, sodium polyacrylate 0.2-0.8 parts, carbamide 0.1-0.5 parts, sodium hydroxide 0.1-10 parts, and deionized water 900.7-977.5 parts. The concrete prepared by the present application has improved viscosity, but when the viscosity is too large, the fluidity of the concrete will decrease, and the viscosity and fluidity of the concrete cannot be better coordinated. SUMMARY

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a preparation method of a concrete viscosity modifier, which is prepared by the following steps:

[0006] Step (1) mixing concentrated nitric acid aqueous solution and deionized water, adding multi-walled carbon nanotubes, heating, and obtaining carboxylated carbon nanotubes by reaction;

[0007] Step (2) dispersing the carboxylated carbon nanotubes in deionized water to obtain a carboxylated carbon nanotube water mixture system; dispersing hydroxyethyl cellulose in deionized water to obtain a hydroxyethyl cellulose water mixture system;

[0008] Step (3) adds the carboxylated carbon nanotube water mixture into the hydroxyethyl cellulose water mixture, and then adds p-toluenesulfonic acid and heats to obtain the concrete viscosity modifier.

[0009] Preferably, the volume ratio of the concentrated nitric acid aqueous solution to the deionized water in step (1) is 3:1, the tube diameter of the multi-walled carbon nanotube is 100-150 nm, and the mass-volume ratio of the multi-walled carbon nanotube to the concentrated nitric acid aqueous solution is 0.01 g / mL.

[0010] Preferably, the reaction conditions of step (1) are as follows: heating to 120°C, reaction at a rotation speed of 3000-5000 r / min, and condensation reflux for 24 h to obtain the reaction product; the reaction product is first washed by centrifugation with ethanol for 3 times, and then washed by centrifugation with deionized water until the pH value of the liquid after centrifugation is 7, and the centrifugation product is obtained by removing the liquid after centrifugation, wherein the centrifugation condition of each time is as follows: centrifugation at a rotation speed of 3000-5000 r / min for 20-30 min; the centrifugation product is dried at 70°C for 48 h, and then ground to obtain the carboxylated carbon nanotube.

[0011] Preferably, step (2) disperses the carboxylated carbon nanotube with deionized water under the condition of a frequency of 50 KHz for 0.5-6 h to obtain the carboxylated carbon nanotube water mixture, wherein the mass fraction of the carboxylated carbon nanotube in the carboxylated carbon nanotube water mixture is 0.1%-3%; and disperses the hydroxyethyl cellulose with deionized water under the condition of a frequency of 50 KHz for 0.5-3 h to obtain the hydroxyethyl cellulose water mixture, wherein the mass fraction of the hydroxyethyl cellulose in the hydroxyethyl cellulose water mixture is 0.1%-1.5%.

[0012] Preferably, step (3) adds the carboxylated carbon nanotube water mixture into the hydroxyethyl cellulose water mixture, and then adds p-toluenesulfonic acid and heats to 105-120°C for 2-3 h to obtain the reaction liquid, wherein the volume ratio of the carboxylated carbon nanotube water mixture to the hydroxyethyl cellulose water mixture is 1:3-8, and the mass-volume ratio of the p-toluenesulfonic acid to the carboxylated carbon nanotube water mixture is 0.2-0.4 mg / mL; centrifuges the reaction liquid at a rotation speed of 4000 r / min for 30 min to obtain the centrifugation product, and then washes the centrifugation product with water, 5 wt% sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution and water in sequence, and dries to obtain the concrete viscosity modifier.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] (1) The concrete viscosity modifier of the present application has good compatibility with water reducing agent by the combination of carboxyl in carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes and hydroxyl in hydroxyethyl cellulose, and at the same time, the molecular chain is increased and the molecular chains are intertwined with each other to form a network structure, preventing the migration of free water; the hydrophobic backbone in cellulose is combined with surrounding water molecules through hydrogen bonds, increasing the fluid volume of the polymer itself and reducing the space for free movement of particles, thereby increasing the viscosity of the system; on the other hand, due to the porous structure of carbon nanotubes, concrete particles will be adsorbed on the surface of the polymer, resulting in an increase in the diameter of the particles and an increase in the resistance to the migration of the polymer chain; in addition, the carboxyl groups in the carboxylated carbon nanotubes that are not combined with hydroxyl groups can also form hydrogen bonds with water; a variety of factors together ultimately enhance the viscosity of the concrete system.

[0015] (2) Most viscosity modifiers tend to greatly reduce the fluidity of the system while increasing the viscosity of the concrete, and how to better balance the viscosity and fluidity of the concrete is a big problem. In the present application, carbon nanotubes are introduced into the viscosity modifier, which has high strength and toughness, and is not prone to breakage under heavy stress. In addition, due to the tubular structure of carbon nanotubes, the small aspect ratio of carbon nanotubes can roll, which can enhance the viscosity of the concrete while minimizing the impact on its fluidity and increase the workability of the concrete.
