Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of building materials, and in particular relates to a composite modified admixture based on low-quality silica fume and lithium slag, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the reduction of energy and production in the coal and steel industries and the restriction of cement production capacity, high-quality and high-activity industrial solid wastes such as fly ash, slag and silica fume have gradually become a valuable resource as raw materials for cementitious materials. Unlike high-activity solid waste resources, low-quality solid waste resources have low activity and poor stability. Their utilization technology is difficult, the economic benefits are poor, and the resource utilization is low. They can only be piled up on the surface in large quantities, which not only pollutes the environment, but also leads to waste of resources. It is imperative to realize the resource utilization of low-quality solid waste to reduce costs.

[0003] Silica fume is a smelting waste formed during the smelting process of industrial silicon or ferrosilicon alloy. Most of the silica fume is highly active and can be used on a large scale, but its price is relatively high. A small part of it is low-quality silica fume, which has a low SiO2 content (<85%), low activity, and high water demand. It has not been effectively utilized, but it is cheap and has potential activity, and has a high utilization value. As an ultrafine powder, silica fume still has technical difficulties in the concrete industry, such as high transportation cost, low tank storage utilization, easy blockage of pipeline transportation, and poor mixing and dispersibility.

[0004] As an industrial waste, lithium slag has a high content of SiO2 and Al2O3 in its chemical composition, has potential volcanic ash activity, and can be used as an admixture for concrete. However, lithium slag has problems such as high moisture content, high water demand, and low activity in the later stage. In addition, when used, the powdered lithium slag has poor fluidity in the silo and is prone to blockage of the material discharge.

[0005] Therefore, further development of admixtures based on industrial wastes such as low-quality silica fume and lithium slag has important research and application significance. Summary of the invention

[0006] The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a composite modified admixture of low-quality silica fume and lithium slag, which can effectively improve the quality of silica fume and enhance the activity of lithium slag, and provide an effective way for the resource utilization of low-quality silica fume and lithium slag.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0008] A composite modified admixture based on low-quality silica fume and lithium slag comprises, by weight: 20-30 parts of low-quality silica fume, 20-30 parts of lithium slag, 0.5-1 part of a composite dispersant, 0.1-0.3 part of a grinding aid, and 40-60 parts of water; the composite dispersant comprises an electrostatic potential dispersing component, a suspension stabilizing component, and water.

[0009] According to the above scheme, the low-quality silica fume is in the form of gray powder, dense type, with SiO2 content less than 85wt%, activity index less than 105%, and water demand ratio greater than 120%.

[0010] According to the above scheme, the lithium slag is in powder form, has a moisture content of 15-25%, and a specific surface area of ​​more than 400m 2 / kg, the sum of its SiO2 and Al2O3 mass contents is greater than 80%.

[0011] According to the above scheme, in the composite dispersant, the components and their weight proportions include: 20 to 35 parts of electrostatic potential dispersion component, 5 to 15 parts of suspension stabilization component, and 50 to 70 parts of water.

[0012] Furthermore, the electrostatic potential dispersion component has a structural formula as shown in formula (I),

[0013]

[0014] In formula (I), a is an integer of 1 to 5, b is an integer of 10 to 20, c is an integer of 5 to 10, and d is an integer of 10 to 20; the relative molecular weight of the electrostatically dispersed component is 4000 to 6000.

[0015] Furthermore, the suspension stabilizing component comprises bentonite, polyaspartic acid amide and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether.

[0016] Furthermore, in the suspension stabilizing component, each component and its weight proportion include: 50-60 parts of bentonite, 20-30 parts of polyaspartic acid amide, and 10-20 parts of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether.

[0017] According to the above scheme, the grinding aid comprises diethanol monoisopropanolamine, sodium tripolyphosphate, polyether polyol and water.

[0018] Furthermore, in the grinding aid, the components and their weight proportions include: 20 to 30 parts of diethanol monoisopropanolamine, 10 to 20 parts of sodium tripolyphosphate, 5 to 10 parts of polyether polyol, and 40 to 65 parts of water.

[0019] The above-mentioned method for preparing a composite modified admixture based on low-quality silica fume and lithium slag comprises the following steps:

[0020] (1) mixing weighed low-quality silica fume, lithium slag, composite dispersant, grinding aid and water to obtain a mixture;

[0021] (2) The obtained mixture is mixed uniformly and ground into fine powder by a wet grinding process, thereby obtaining the low-quality silica fume and lithium slag composite modified admixture.

[0022] Furthermore, the wet grinding process has a rotation speed of 2500 to 3000 r / min and a wet grinding time of 10 to 20 min.

[0023] Furthermore, the composite modified admixture is a composite slurry with uniform dispersion and stable suspension, a solid content of 40-60%, and a viscosity of 2000-5000 mPa·s.

[0024] The present invention also provides an application of the low-quality silica fume modified composite admixture in cement concrete. In the application, the dosage of the low-quality silica fume modified composite admixture is 10 to 30 wt % of the amount of cementitious material in the cement concrete.

[0025] The principle of the present invention is:

[0026] 1. The present invention uses low-quality silica fume, lithium slag and water as main raw materials, and prepares a slurry composite admixture with high activity through a wet grinding process under the action of a composite dispersant and a grinding aid. The wet grinding process introduces a composite dispersant in the grinding process, wherein the polymer molecules of the electrostatically dispersed component carry a large number of plasma functional groups such as carboxyl (-COOH), sulfonic acid (-SO3H), and acetamide (-CONH2). During the wet grinding process, the ionic groups are ionized quickly and tightly adsorbed to the surface of silica fume and lithium slag particles, forming a stable double electric layer to generate electrostatic repulsion, inhibiting the agglomeration and flocculation of the slurry during the wet grinding process, and effectively improving the dispersibility of the particles; in addition, the polymer of the electrostatically dispersed component has a larger molecular weight and a longer chain, which can promote the silica fume and lithium slag particles to be more firmly adsorbed on their components or interfaces, forming a stable composite structure, and effectively improving the stability of the slurry system.

[0027] 2. The suspension stabilizing component of the present invention adopts an inorganic-organic composite method, utilizing the water absorption expansion-thixotropic viscosity-increasing effect of the inorganic bentonite to play a role in assisting suspension; at the same time, the organic polymers polyaspartic acid amide and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether introduced have a large molecular weight, a complex molecular structure and rich functional groups, which can form a protective layer around the silica fume and lithium slag particles, increase the steric hindrance between the particles, and further improve the suspension stability.

[0028] 3. The present invention performs wet grinding and refining treatment on silica fume and lithium slag to obtain silica fume with better dispersion effect and lithium slag particles with a particle size smaller than that of conventional grinding process, which is beneficial to the rapid hydrolysis of SiO2 in silica fume and the secondary reaction of active silicon and aluminum in lithium slag with Ca(OH)2 provided in the cement hydration process to generate more hydration products and effectively improve the strength.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0030] 1) In order to solve the problems of low activity, large water demand and poor dispersibility of low-quality silica fume, the present invention adopts a wet grinding process and incorporates a composite dispersant and a grinding aid, which greatly improves the dispersibility of the silica fume and enhances the activity of the low-quality silica fume. At the same time, the electrostatic potential dispersion-anti-sedimentation effect is utilized to inhibit the agglomeration and flocculation of the slurry during the wet grinding process, effectively improving the dispersibility and stability of the powder particles, and ensuring the performance of the low-quality silica fume wet grinding admixture.

[0031] 2. The present invention uses low-quality silica fume and lithium slag as main raw materials, combines composite dispersants and grinding aids, and adopts wet grinding process to prepare slurry composite admixtures, which can effectively solve the problems of poor material fluidity and large quality fluctuation caused by high moisture content, low fineness and high water content of powdered lithium slag. At the same time, it also solves the technical problems of low tank storage utilization rate, easy blockage in pipeline transportation, poor stirring dispersibility and other technical problems existing in the application of silica fume as ultrafine powder.

[0032] 3. The wet-ground composite admixture of the present invention can replace 10 to 30% of cementitious materials, providing a new direction for the resource utilization of low-quality silica fume and lithium slag, greatly improving their resource utilization rate, and reducing the amount of cementitious materials, which can effectively reduce the production cost of cement-based materials.
