Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of materials, and relates to a functional concrete and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a nano visible light catalytic refrigerant and a preparation method of visible light catalytic concrete. BACKGROUND
[0002] Nitrogen oxide (NO x ) is a major air pollutant produced by fossil fuel combustion, chemical manufacturing processes and nitric acid metal processing. NO x Not only causes environmental problems such as acid rain and PM2.5, but also is toxic to the human body. Even if the concentration of NO x is in the low concentration range of ppm or ppb, it will also have adverse effects on humans and the environment. NO x Reduction method assisted by high temperature can effectively remove high-concentration NO x (200-2000 ppm) in automobile exhaust and industrial manufacturing. However, these NO x reduction methods cannot effectively remove low-concentration NO x (below 1 ppm) in the human living environment. Therefore, domestic and foreign researchers have been committed to finding a method of low energy consumption and high efficiency for removing low-concentration NO x in the environment, among which photocatalytic degradation of NO x is considered to be one of the most promising methods for removing low-concentration NO x in the indoor and outdoor environment of human living room. Because cement-based materials are the most widely used and largest amount of building materials in the world today, combined with the huge surface area of buildings, cement-based materials have become an excellent carrier for photocatalytic degradation of NO x . For this reason, photocatalytic cement-based materials have emerged, among which nano photocatalyst modified cement-based materials have developed rapidly in the past 20 years. Powdered nano titanium dioxide (TiO2) has high cost performance, non-toxicity, chemical inertness under no light, size effect and other advantages, and is the most commonly used photocatalyst in photocatalytic concrete. However, there are hard agglomerations between the grains of powdered nano TiO2, and the ions in the cement-based pore solution exacerbate the secondary agglomeration of powdered nano TiO2 particles, which greatly reduces the pollutant degradation efficiency of photocatalytic concrete.
[0003] Generally speaking, the recommended dosage of powdered nano-TiO2 in photocatalytic cement-based materials in the existing reported data is about 3-5 wt.% of the cement mass. Increasing the dosage will not significantly improve the degradation efficiency of pollutants. Spraying photocatalyst on the surface of concrete is another application method, but it has the characteristics of easy wear, peeling and failure of the coating layer. Therefore, it is not within the scope of this invention. The NO conversion rate of the modified titanium dioxide photocatalytic cement hardening paste with 3% iron oxide added to the ordinary cement is less than 25% in the patent "Use of photocatalytic coating particles for decomposing air pollutants" (CN101980988A). After 8 days of standard curing, the NO conversion rate of the hardened photocatalytic cement paste is reduced to less than 8%. The current patents on photocatalytic concrete mainly focus on the effect of photocatalytic degradation of liquid-phase organic dyes, and less on the effect of degradation of gas-phase pollutants. The main reason is that the attachment methods of gas-phase and liquid-phase pollutants on the surface and pores of photocatalytic concrete are different, and the photocatalytic degradation effects are quite different. For example, the photocatalytic degradation of pollutants by the photocatalytic concrete material proposed in the patent "High-strength cement-based composite photocatalytic material and its preparation method" (CN110482963B) is described by degrading liquid-phase dyes, and there is no experimental verification of photocatalytic degradation of gas-phase pollutants. The performance characterization of photocatalytic degradation of pollutants is not involved in the effect verification of the photocatalytic concrete proposed in the patent "High-efficiency self-cleaning photocatalytic concrete and its preparation method" (CN115057673B), and the photocatalytic effect of the concrete cannot be evaluated. Based on the above performance characteristics, simply increasing the dosage of nano-TiO2 in concrete cannot effectively improve its ability to degrade air pollutants, and will increase the cost of raw materials. Therefore, improving the photocatalytic degradation of gas-phase pollutants by existing nano-TiO2 modified photocatalytic concrete is one of the urgent problems to be solved.
[0004] Additionally, nano-TiO2 modified concrete needs to absorb ultraviolet light photon energy with a certain radiation power to exhibit the effect of photocatalytic degradation of gaseous pollutants. This characteristic is not conducive to the popularization and application of photocatalytic concrete in residential buildings. By screening and surface modification of photocatalysts, visible light catalysts with ultraviolet-visible light catalytic effect can be obtained, which can enable photocatalytic concrete to degrade pollutants under visible light. In the literature “Atmospheric NOx removal: Study of cement mortars with iron-and vanadium-doped TiO2 as visible light–sensitive photocatalysts” (Construction and Building Materials 149 (2017) 257-271), the NO degradation rate of the mortar mixed with 2.5% ultraviolet-visible light catalyst (V-TiO2) under simulated sunlight conditions is about 15.5%, and the NO degradation rate of the mortar mixed with 0.5% ultraviolet-visible light catalyst under simulated sunlight conditions is about 13.9%. In the literature “The effect of TiO2@CoAl-LDH nanosphere on early hydration of cement and its photocatalytic depollution performance under UV–visible light” (Construction and Building Materials 319 (2022) 126227), it is reported that the NO degradation rate of the mortar mixed with 1% ultraviolet-visible light catalyst (TiO2@CoAl-LDH) of cement under simulated sunlight conditions is 12.3%, the NO degradation rate of the mortar mixed with 4% ultraviolet-visible light catalyst (TiO2@CoAl-LDH) of cement under simulated sunlight conditions is 58.3%, and the NO degradation rate of the mortar mixed with 4% photocatalyst (TiO2) of cement under simulated sunlight conditions is 24.1%. At the same time, the synthesis conditions of visible light catalysts are harsh and not suitable for large-scale production. For example, the ultraviolet-visible light catalyst (V-TiO2) in the above literature is prepared by spray combustion and thermal decomposition process, which requires precise instruments and higher energy consumption auxiliary process. The preparation of ultraviolet-visible light catalyst (TiO2@CoAl-LDH) requires a high-temperature and high-pressure reaction kettle at 180°C for 48 hours, which has a certain risk of explosion during the process, and has higher requirements for the environmental parameters and safety facilities of the production plant. x x x
[0005] Therefore, for the TiO2-based visible light catalyst modified concrete, a relatively high dosage is still needed to obtain a relatively ideal NO x degradation efficiency. However, the cost of the visible light catalyst in the existing reports is much higher than that of the TiO2 photocatalyst, so its application in concrete is very limited. Therefore, how to improve the photocatalytic effect of the low-cost and low-photocatalyst dosage photocatalytic concrete on the gaseous pollutants in the ultraviolet-visible light band is still a problem to be solved. SUMMARY
[0006] In view of the technical problems of the existing photocatalytic concrete, the application provides a nano visible light catalyst and a preparation method of visible light catalyst concrete.
[0007] In view of the technical problems of high cost and harsh synthesis conditions of the visible light catalyst, the application proposes to prepare the TiO2-based visible light catalyst at a reaction temperature slightly higher than room temperature (35-85 0C), which has a simple production process and low energy consumption. In view of the technical difficulty of low photocatalytic efficiency of the concrete with low dosage of visible light catalyst on gaseous pollutants, the application starts from the aspects of material and microstructure design, improves the catalytic activity of the catalyst and the micro-pore structure in the hardened concrete, and comprehensively improves the efficiency of the visible light catalytic degradation of nitrogen oxides in the concrete, and gives the concrete slab a passive radiation refrigeration effect.
[0008] From the perspective of material design, the application proposes to use the radial morphology structure characteristics of the nanocellulose fiber material to modify the surface of the nano TiO2 hydrosol particles by using the low-cost nanocellulose fiber, and to prepare a high-dispersity nano visible light catalyst. This can effectively improve the visible light reaction activity of the nano TiO2 hydrosol and significantly improve the viscosity and thixotropy of the fresh paste.
[0009] The efficiency of photocatalytic concrete in removing gaseous pollutants is closely related to its photocatalytic activity, which is affected by the dispersion of photocatalysts (surface active sites), the generation, separation and recombination of photo-generated electrons and holes. From the perspective of microstructure design, the present application proposes that the above-mentioned nano visible light photocatalyst with high dispersity, i.e. the nano visible light photocatalytic refrigerant, can be used as a nano visible light photocatalytic refrigerant, which can effectively improve the thermal conductivity of the liquid phase in the freshly mixed paste, increase the average cooling rate and improve the pore structure of the hardened paste. Therefore, the present application uses the freeze forming technology to prepare a hardened concrete with directional micropores, which has smaller pore size and higher specific surface area, which is beneficial to the adhesion of gaseous pollutants on the surface of the photocatalytic concrete, thereby promoting the photocatalytic reaction and improving the efficiency of photocatalytic degradation of gaseous pollutants.

[0097] The nano-modified photocatalytic concretes prepared in the examples and comparative examples were subjected to radiation cooling performance tests, photocatalytic performance tests, and rheological performance tests, respectively. The test methods and results are as follows:
[0098] The radiation cooling performance test method involves fabricating a photocatalytic concrete slab measuring 200mm in length, 100mm in width, and 10mm in thickness from the aforementioned concrete. A house model (110x190x45mm) is then prepared, and the photocatalytic concrete slab is placed on top of the house model. Temperature recorders are installed on the upper and lower surfaces of the photocatalytic concrete slab and at the bottom of the house model. A simulated solar light source is placed above the photocatalytic concrete slab. A 24-channel temperature recorder is used to record the temperature change of the concrete surface under simulated sunlight exposure for 60 minutes (the wavelength range of the simulated sunlight source is 320-780nm). The specific test method is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the temperature recorder channels are all located at the center of the house model and the photocatalytic concrete slab. Figure 3 Its daytime radiative cooling performance was quantitatively characterized by changes in ambient temperature, and the test results are shown in Table 2.
[0099] The photocatalytic performance testing method involves testing gaseous pollutants (typically represented by nitrogen oxides, a major component of automobile exhaust) with nitrogen oxides (NOx). x The modified concrete was selected as the target pollutant, and its air purification performance was quantitatively characterized by the efficiency of photocatalytic degradation of gaseous and solid pollutants. The test was conducted in a self-made reactor designed according to standard ISO 22197-1. The parameters of the test system were as follows: wavelength range of simulated sunlight source: 320-780 nm; irradiance of the test surface: 10 ± 0.05 W / m². 2 The NO concentration at the pollution source was 5 ppm, the pollutant flow rate and the air flow rate were 0.06 L / min and 2.94 L / min respectively, the total gas flow rate was 3.0 L / min, and the relative humidity in the reaction vessel was 50 ± 1%. The test results are shown in Table 1.
[0100] The rheological property test method is to use a soft solid rheometer (RSX SST, AMETEK Brookfield, USA) and a 40 mm x 20 mm type paddle rotor test to determine the effect of different types of modified photocatalysts on the early fluidity of cement-based materials.

[0106] From Table 1, the degradation rates of NO of the four application examples are much higher than those of the four application comparative examples. The degradation rate of NO of application example 1 is 12.5%, which is 173.6% higher than that of application comparative example 1. The degradation rate of NO of application example 2 is 9.6%, which is 2374.9% higher than that of application comparative example 2. The degradation rate of NO of application example 3 is 11.4%, which is 6658.8% higher than that of application comparative example 3. The degradation rate of NO of application example 4 is 6.2%, which is 498.8% higher than that of application comparative example 4. Compared with the degradation rates of NO of the modified concrete with 1% visible light catalyst reported in documents [1, 2], the degradation rates of NO of the visible light catalytic concrete with 0.1% visible light catalyst prepared in the present application are comparable. Therefore, the above results show that the preparation process of freeze molding can greatly improve the efficiency of photocatalytic degradation of nitrogen oxides of concrete with low catalyst content, and can effectively improve the utilization rate of photocatalyst in concrete. x x

[0110] Note: In Table 2, CH01 and CH08 are the temperature recorder readings of the lower surface and the upper surface of the photocatalytic concrete plate in the corresponding group of the house model, respectively. The temperature difference between CH01 and CH08 is the maximum temperature difference between the upper and lower surfaces of the photocatalytic concrete plate within 60 minutes of simulated sunlight.
[0111] As shown in Table 2, the highest temperature on the upper surface of the photocatalytic concrete slabs in the four application examples does not exceed 34.3℃, and the highest temperature on the lower surface of the concrete slabs does not exceed 28℃ within 1h of simulated sunlight irradiation. In the application comparative examples 1-4, the temperature on the upper surface of the photocatalytic concrete slabs is close to or exceeds 34.5℃, and the highest temperature on the lower surface of the concrete slabs is in the range of 28-30℃. This directly shows that, compared with the cast molding, the photocatalytic concrete slabs formed by the freeze molding play a good role in radiation cooling.
[0112] Further analysis shows that, for the concrete slabs in the application examples 1-4 and the application comparative example 6 formed by the one-way freeze molding, the temperature difference between the upper and lower surfaces of the slabs decreases first and then increases with the increase of the ratio of the nanocellulose fibers to TiO2 in the photocatalyst. This shows that the ratio of the nanocellulose fibers to TiO2 in the nanocellulose fiber modified TiO2 photocatalyst affects the radiation cooling effect of the photocatalytic concrete slabs. When the ratio is less than or equal to 2.0, the radiation cooling effect increases with the increase of the ratio; when the ratio is greater than 2.0, the radiation cooling effect significantly decreases with the increase of the ratio. Compared with the application comparative examples 1-4 and the application comparative example 7, the temperature difference ΔT between the upper and lower surfaces of the photocatalytic concrete slabs does not change obviously with the change of the ratio of the nanocellulose fibers to TiO2 in the photocatalyst. This shows that the pure photocatalyst cannot improve the radiation cooling performance of the concrete slabs in the cast molding, i.e., the construction of the pores in the hardened concrete plays a fundamental and crucial role in the radiation cooling performance.
