Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of concrete additives, and in particular to a composite water reducing agent for inhibiting concrete fly ash reaction bubbles, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Polycarboxylic acid-based high-efficiency water reducers are the latest generation of dispersants in the concrete industry. Compared with the previous lignin, wood calcium sulfonate and naphthalene-based water reducers, polycarboxylic acid-based water reducers have lower dosage and higher water reduction rate, which can usually reach 30-40%, or even higher. Polycarboxylic acid-based water reducers have a strong polar main chain and hydrophilic side chains of a certain length and number. The molecular structure is comb-shaped, and the outward-extending comb structure supported by numerous side chains provides sufficient spatial arrangement effect for the further dispersion of cement particles. Compared with the double-layer electrical repulsion of naphthalene-based high-efficiency water reducers, the steric hindrance effect makes the dispersion last much longer, and the slump retention performance of concrete using polycarboxylic acid water reducers is better. At the same time, it has good compatibility with cement, admixtures, and active additives, providing a good technical guarantee for the promotion of the use of large-volume fly ash, slag, steel slag, manganese slag and other industrial solid wastes. In addition, the breakthrough in the process technology of polycarboxylic acid water reducers - no formaldehyde is used in the synthesis, which has less environmental pollution and is conducive to the sustainable development of construction.

[0003] At the same time, due to my country's vast territory, complex ground materials and diversified concrete raw materials, some problems are inevitable in the application of polycarboxylic acid water-reducing agents. In engineering applications, different cements, mineral powders and fly ash will inevitably cause some adaptability problems when using polycarboxylic acid water-reducing agents, such as increased water demand, large fluctuations in admixture dosage, irregular strength growth, abnormal concrete setting time, large slump loss, etc. In particular, when fly ash is used as an admixture in precast concrete beams and plain concrete structures, it brings serious appearance problems, which are specifically manifested in: color difference on the concrete surface, large areas of scattered black spots, large areas of pores, etc. For precast concrete beams and plain concrete structures, the demolding surface is not decorated in any way and is used as the final delivery surface. If the above-mentioned appearance problems exist, it is difficult to meet the delivery standards. At the same time, too many pores in the concrete will also bring quality risks such as reduced strength. Color difference, spots, etc. can be well solved by fully mixing the concrete and strictly screening the raw materials. However, the problem of many pores on the concrete surface is still difficult to deal with by adding defoamer components to the polycarboxylic acid water reducer through compounding. At present, this problem has become a major technical difficulty in the application of concrete admixtures.

[0004] There are various reasons for the existence of apparent pores in concrete. Polycarboxylate water reducer itself is a surfactant with a designable structure and is extremely hydrophilic. During its synthesis process, some surface-active components that reduce surface tension are often retained. Therefore, it inherently has a certain air-entraining function. These components that reduce surface tension are different from traditional air-entraining agents. In the production process of air-entraining agents, some necessary conditions for generating stable, fine, and closed bubbles are considered, and surface-active components are added to the air-entraining agents. As a result, the bubbles introduced into the concrete can bring excellent workability and constructability to the concrete on the premise of meeting the specified requirements of the air content, and will not have an adverse impact on properties such as strength. In a concrete structure, excessive air content will bring the risk of strength reduction and also affect the appearance quality of the concrete. Water reducer application manufacturers usually add defoaming agent components according to needs to reduce the internal air content of the concrete to meet the requirements. Bubbles caused by raw materials or gradation problems in the concrete itself can usually be well eliminated by compounding defoaming agents. However, if bubbles are generated during the reaction of the concrete materials themselves after the concrete is mixed with water, and the bubbles are just in the stage when the concrete loses plasticity, and there is not enough concrete slurry to fill the bubble defects, resulting in porosity inside and on the surface of the hardened concrete, this problem is often difficult to handle; improper use of fly ash is the main reason for the generation of reaction bubbles in concrete. Fly ash is a by-product of coal-fired power plants. Its micro-aggregate effect, morphological effect, activity effect, etc. can improve the workability, long-term durability, and late mechanical properties of concrete. With increasing attention to environmental protection, large domestic coal-fired power plants have completed desulfurization and denitrification technical transformations in order to meet emission standards, and most of the fly ash produced by power plants is denitrified fly ash. At present, the most commonly used flue gas denitrification technologies in the world are selective catalytic reduction technology (SCR) and selective non-catalytic reduction technology (SNCR). Both denitrification technologies use liquid ammonia, ammonia water, or urea as reducing agents. In actual applications, ammonia escape cannot be completely avoided, and the escaped ammonia reacts with sulfur oxides in the flue gas to generate a large amount of ammonium salts, thus causing the enrichment of such substances in fly ash. When using this kind of fly ash in ready-mixed concrete, ammonium salts will continuously react in an alkaline environment to release ammonia gas, generating bubble holes inside and on the surface of the concrete, which has an adverse impact on the appearance and compressive strength of the concrete. The existing forms of residual ammonia in denitrified fly ash are mainly physically adsorbed ammonia gas, ammonium bicarbonate, ammonium sulfate, and ammonium bisulfate. After being incorporated into the concrete, the denitrified fly ash dissolves in water to become free ammonium ions, and there is the following equilibrium for ammonium ions under the alkaline condition provided by cement hydration:

[0005]

[0006] As ammonia gas escapes, the ammonia concentration in the solution decreases, promoting the ionization equilibrium to shift to the right, enabling continuous generation and release of ammonia gas. At the same time, with the continuous progress of hydration, the increase in the content of the hydration by-product calcium hydroxide leads to an increase in alkalinity in the free aqueous solution, further promoting the rightward shift of the ionization equilibrium. During concrete pouring and vibration, high-frequency vibration also accelerates the escape of ammonia gas. Considering the above factors, the escaped ammonia gas stays on the surface of the concrete formwork during the stage when the concrete loses its plasticity, resulting in the formation of defective holes after hardening. At the same time, due to the presence of gas, the internal compactness of the concrete decreases, thereby posing a risk of reduced concrete strength.

[0007] Regarding the above-mentioned concrete air hole problems, the prior art discloses improving the concrete air hole problems by adding a defoaming agent component to the polycarboxylate superplasticizer through compounding means or modifying the polycarboxylate superplasticizer. For example, the Chinese patent application with publication number CN110372255A discloses a composite high-performance polycarboxylate superplasticizer, which includes the following raw materials in parts by weight: 15 - 20 parts of a water-reducing polycarboxylate superplasticizer mother liquor, 10 - 15 parts of a viscosity-reducing polycarboxylate superplasticizer mother liquor, 20 - 30 parts of a sustained-release polycarboxylate superplasticizer mother liquor, 10 - 15 parts of a hydration heat inhibitor, 2 - 5 parts of a retarder, 0 - 0.1 part of a consistency regulator, 0 - 0.06 part of an air-entraining agent, and 0 - 0.05 part of a defoaming agent. This patent application obtains a composite high-performance polycarboxylate superplasticizer by adding a defoaming agent through conventional compounding means, which can handle the inherent bubbles caused by poor grading of conventional concrete manufactured sand, surface activity, stirring, etc., but cannot solve the quality problems caused by the bubbles generated by the reaction of coal ash materials in concrete. The Chinese patent application with publication number CN113461872A discloses a bubble-control monomer, a polycarboxylate superplasticizer, and its preparation method. By grafting the bubble-control monomer to modify the polycarboxylate molecular structure, it can effectively control the size and distribution of bubbles in the concrete structure and reduce the number of surface bubbles. However, this patented technology cannot fundamentally solve the adverse effects of fly ash on the appearance and compressive strength of concrete, and in this patent, complex chemical means are required to synthesize and prepare the bubble-control monomer from unsaturated acids and amphoteric monomers, which requires high temperature and catalytic conditions, and the conditions are relatively cumbersome and harsh. Summary of the Invention

[0008] Aiming at the above deficiencies, the present invention provides a composite superplasticizer for inhibiting the reaction bubbles of fly ash in concrete and its preparation method, which can inhibit the generation of bubbles caused by the reaction of denitrification fly ash under alkaline conditions, and improve the appearance quality and strength of precast concrete beams and fair-faced concrete. The specific technical solutions are as follows:

[0009] A composite water reducer for suppressing reaction bubbles of fly ash in concrete, characterized in that, by weight, 1000 parts of the composite water reducer are composed of the following raw materials: 100-350 parts of polycarboxylate water reducing mother liquor, 50-250 parts of polycarboxylate slump retaining mother liquor, 0-55 parts of retarder, 0-0.2 parts of air-entraining agent, 0-0.3 parts of defoaming agent, 10-40 parts of inhibitor, 0-10 parts of water retention and thickening agent, and the rest is water; the inhibitor is one or more of ferrous sulfate, copper sulfate, magnesium sulfate, and zinc sulfate.

[0010] The technical principle of the composite water reducer for suppressing reaction bubbles of fly ash in concrete of the present invention is as follows: using the reaction between the inhibitor and ammonia molecules hydrolyzed from ammonium ions in the concrete slurry to produce alkaline precipitates, effectively reducing the hydroxide ion concentration in the concrete slurry, making the ionization equilibrium shift and slowing down the formation of bubble holes caused by the release of ammonia due to concentration aggregation; at the same time, the inhibitor can react with the main component ammonium sulfate in desulfurized fly ash to form relatively stable and low-solubility Mohr's salt (ammonium ferrous sulfate), also effectively reducing the ammonium ions in the concrete slurry, promoting the ionization equilibrium to shift to the left, and avoiding the release of ammonia due to the concentration aggregation of ammonia molecules; avoiding surface holes caused by the inability of air holes to heal during the stage when the concrete loses plasticity and improving the concrete strength; in addition, the inhibitor also has the functions of solidifying harmful substances in the concrete such as heavy metal chromium, reducing the risk of virus harm brought by human absorption, and enhancing the concrete strength. The main reaction formulas are as follows:

[0011] CuSO4 + 2NH3·H2O = Cu(OH)2↓ + (NH4)2SO4

[0012] FeSO4 + 2NH3·H2O = Fe(OH)2↓ + (NH4)2SO4

[0013] MgSO4 + 2NH3·H2O = Mg(OH)2↓ + (NH4)2SO4

[0014] (NH4)2SO4 + FeSO4 + 6H2O = (NH4)2SO4·FeSO4·6H2O (Mohr's salt).

[0015] In the present invention, the inhibitor is a water-soluble component. At the same time, the main component mother liquor of the polycarboxylate water reducer itself is a macromolecule synthesized by organic synthesis. After the polymerization reaction, each active monomer has been grafted and polymerized, and will not react with the inhibitor to cause the inactivation of the inhibitor. Moreover, the polycarboxylate water reducer is acidic, which can effectively avoid the hydrolysis of the inhibitor to form precipitate flocs, creating good conditions for the stability of the inhibitor; other components are also water-soluble components, and the components will not affect each other to cause problems such as reduced solubility and precipitation, nor will there be any adverse reactions that cause the functions of each component to fail.

[0016] The composite water reducer for inhibiting the reaction bubbles of fly ash in concrete combines components such as an inhibitor, a polycarboxylate water reducing mother liquor, a polycarboxylate slump retaining mother liquor, etc. Among them, the polycarboxylate water reducing mother liquor provides sufficient electrostatic repulsion and dispersibility for the concrete due to its special comb-shaped molecular structure and active groups such as carboxyl groups, sulfonic acid groups, and hydroxyl groups; the polycarboxylate slump retaining mother liquor gradually releases active groups with anchoring and dispersing effects under the condition of increasing alkalinity during the cement hydration process, continuously maintaining the dispersibility of the concrete to meet the construction requirements; the corresponding retarder delays the hydration of the cement, effectively avoiding the cracking of the concrete caused by the concentration of hydration heat due to too short setting time; the water retaining and thickening agent, air-entraining agent, and defoaming agent play an auxiliary role in improving the workability and quality of the concrete; the cooperation of each component in the concrete can effectively improve the quality of the concrete.

[0020] Preferably, in the above-mentioned composite water reducer for inhibiting the reaction bubbles of fly ash in concrete, the water retaining and thickening agent is one or more of maltodextrin, polyacrylamide, welan gum, xanthan gum, and cellulose ether.

[0021] Preferably, in the above-mentioned composite water reducer for inhibiting the reaction bubbles of fly ash in concrete, the air-entraining agent is one or more of rosin resin type, alkyl benzene sulfonate type, fatty alcohol sulfonate type, carboxylic acid type, alkyl sulfate type, and saponin type; the defoaming agent is one or more of organosilane type, polyether type, organic alcohol type, mineral type, and polysiloxane type.

[0022] Preferably, in the above-mentioned composite water reducer for inhibiting the reaction bubbles of fly ash in concrete, the inhibitor is ferrous sulfate.

[0023] Preferably, in the above-mentioned composite water reducer for inhibiting the reaction bubbles of fly ash in concrete, by weight, it is composed of the following raw materials: 225 parts of polycarboxylate water reducing mother liquor, 150 parts of polycarboxylate slump retaining mother liquor, 35 parts of retarder, 0.1 part of air-entraining agent, 0.1 part of defoaming agent, 30 parts of inhibitor, 0.4 part of water retaining and thickening agent, and 559.4 parts of water; the inhibitor is ferrous sulfate.

[0024] A preparation method of the composite water reducer for suppressing the reaction bubbles of fly ash in concrete as described above, comprising the following steps:

[0025] (1) First, water and retarder are put into a stirring kettle, stirred to dissolve the retarder in the water, and then an inhibitor is added and stirred to dissolve.

[0026] (2) The polycarboxylate water reducer mother liquor and the polycarboxylate slump retention mother liquor are put into the stirring kettle and stirred evenly.

[0070] Test Example

[0071] The following concrete application performance, air content and mechanical property tests are carried out on the composite water reducers prepared in Examples 1 to 7 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4:

[0072] ① Materials for performance testing: Cement, Yufeng P.O42.5 ordinary Portland cement; Manufactured sand, produced in Liuzhou, Guangxi, fineness modulus 2.5, methylene blue MB value 0.8; Fly ash A, secondary ash produced in Baise, Guangxi, with relatively high ammonia content, obvious pungent smell, activity index 78%, ammonium ion content 752 mg / kg; Fly ash B, secondary fly ash produced in Pingguo, Guangxi, without obvious pungent smell, activity index 77%, ammonium ion content 12 mg / kg; Mineral powder, S95 grade produced in Beihai, Guangxi, activity index 96%; Aggregates, crushed stones with particle size of 5 - 30 mm; Water, tap water; The admixtures are those in Examples 1 - 7 and Comparative Examples 1 - 4 above.

[0073] ② The tests for measuring the application performance and air content of concrete were carried out with reference to GB / T50080 - 2016 "Standard Test Method for Performance of Ordinary Concrete Mixtures". The only variable in the experimental mix proportion of concrete was fly ash. Two sets of mix proportions were set as shown in Table 1. The concrete was mixed according to the proportions in Table 1, and the slump and spread of the fresh concrete mixture were recorded at the initial stage, 1 h, and 2 h respectively, with the unit of mm; The air content (%) of the fresh concrete mixture was measured at the initial stage, 1 h, and 2 h respectively.

[0074] Table 1 Experimental mix proportion of concrete

[0075]

[0076] The comparison of the working performance, mechanical properties, and air content of concrete can be seen in Table 2 and Table 3 respectively. In Table 2 and Table 3, the dosage of the composite water - reducing agent is 2.0%, while keeping the water consumption consistent and the water - cement ratio unchanged.

[0077] It can be clearly seen from the air content data in Table 3 that the overall air content of Concrete Mix Ratio 1 (Fly ash A, ammonium ion content 752 mg / kg) is higher than that of Concrete Mix Ratio 2 (Fly ash B, ammonium ion content 12 mg / kg); from the test results of the concrete in Table 2, it can be known that under the same conditions, in terms of mechanical properties, the 3d / 7d early strength and 28d strength of Concrete Mix Ratio 2 (Fly ash B, ammonium ion content 12 mg / kg) are both higher than those of Concrete Mix Ratio 1 (Fly ash A, ammonium ion content 752 mg / kg) as a whole, indicating that the excessive presence of ammonium ions under alkaline conditions will generate gas, increase the internal voids of the concrete, resulting in an increase in air content and at the same time bringing the risk of strength reduction; from the concrete tests in Table 2, comparing Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-4, the slump / spread data are basically the same, indicating that this technical solution does not affect the normal efficacy of the polycarboxylate water reducer and will not affect the normal application state of the concrete. Comparing Examples 1-4, it can be seen that within a certain range of the inhibitor dosage, the 3d / 7d early strength increases regularly with the gradual increase of the inhibitor dosage. The inhibitor addition measure proposed in this technical solution can improve the early strength and late strength of the concrete, which should be due to the use of ion doping to accelerate the cement hardening process, improve the cement hydration environment and conditions, and make the performance of the cement more stable and excellent; from the concrete air content in Table 3, comparing Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-4, the overall air content of the examples is significantly lower than that of the comparative examples, and at the same time the surface pore condition is significantly improved, indicating that the inhibitor in this technical solution effectively restricts the gas release due to the excessive ammonium ions in the fly ash under alkaline conditions; as the cement hydration proceeds, the inside of the concrete should tend to be dense and the air content will decrease. Comparing Comparative Examples 1-4, the air content remains basically the same from the initial stage to 1 h and even slightly increases, indicating that the gas generated by the reaction in Comparative Examples 1-4 contributes to the part of the air content lost due to hydration, while the air content of Examples 1-7 gradually decreases from the initial stage to 1 h and 2 h, indicating that adding the inhibitor can improve the problem of reaction bubbles in denitrified fly ash and increase the strength.

[0084] In summary, the composite water reducer for suppressing the reaction bubbles of fly ash in concrete can effectively solve the problems of the appearance quality and strength risk hidden dangers caused by the bubbles generated by the reaction of denitrification fly ash under alkaline conditions in precast concrete beams and fair-faced concrete pores, and improve the quality of concrete.
