Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of building materials, and in particular to a method for reinforcing calcined desulfurized gypsum. Background Art
[0002] The wet desulfurization process of coal-fired power plants produces a large amount of flue gas desulfurization gypsum. If it is not used properly, it will cause a large amount of accumulation, which will not only occupy a large amount of land but also cause resource waste and environmental pollution. The current utilization rate of desulfurization gypsum in my country is about 80%, and a large amount of desulfurization gypsum is still accumulated every year. Gypsum products are one of the preferred modern building materials because of their environmental protection, light weight, comfort, high construction efficiency, good fireproof and sound insulation performance, easy maintenance, and economy. However, due to the fact that calcium sulfate dihydrate is slightly soluble in water, gypsum building materials have poor water resistance and are subject to many restrictions on their use.
[0003] The main indicator reflecting the water resistance of gypsum building materials is the softening coefficient, which is the ratio of the saturated strength of the gypsum specimen to the absolute dry strength of the gypsum specimen. Although some people believe that sodium methyl silicate can improve the water resistance of gypsum, this is at the expense of the absolute strength of the gypsum, which greatly reduces the mechanical properties of the gypsum. Han Qingqing explored the effect of sodium methyl silicate on desulfurized building gypsum and believed that sodium methyl silicate forms a siloxane hydrophobic film in the gypsum slurry that adheres to the surface of the gypsum crystals and affects the hydration process of the gypsum. When the dosage of sodium methyl silicate is 5%, the compressive strength of the desulfurized building gypsum decreases by 62% (Han Qingqing. Research on the Water Resistance of Desulfurized Building Gypsum [D]. Henan Polytechnic University, 2023.000191. Page 22). Zhang Mingtao et al. modified phosphogypsum blocks with sodium methyl silicate and believed that sodium methyl silicate would form a hydrophobic film on the surface of gypsum crystals, affecting the bonding force between gypsum crystals. When the sodium methyl silicate content was 1.5%, the compressive strength of phosphogypsum blocks decreased by 68% (Zhang Mingtao et al. Effect of methyl silicate waterproofing agents on the water resistance of phosphogypsum building blocks [J]. Journal of Chongqing University of Science and Technology (Natural Science Edition), 2024, 26(04): 61-67). It can be seen that sodium methyl silicate will affect the hydration process of gypsum and the morphology of gypsum crystals, causing its mechanical strength to be greatly reduced.
[0004] In view of the above technical problems, the present invention provides a gypsum reinforcement method, wherein adding sodium methyl silicate to desulfurized gypsum can significantly improve the water resistance and mechanical strength of the gypsum. Summary of the invention

[0008] In the above method, the calcined desulfurized gypsum is semi-hydrated desulfurized gypsum obtained by calcining desulfurized gypsum at 180° C. for 2 hours.
[0009] In the above method, the sodium methyl silicate is commercially available and has an effective content of 25%.
[0010] In the above method, the calcium aluminate cement is CA80 high alumina cement.
[0011] In the above method, the slag powder is S95 slag powder, and its specific surface area is 400-450m 2 / kg.
[0012] In the above method, the specific surface area of the steel slag powder is 400-450m 2 / kg.
[0013] In the above method, the redispersible latex powder is commercially available Wacker 5044N model latex powder.
[0014] In the above method, the defoaming agent is a commercially available silicon-based defoaming agent.
[0015] In the above method, the mixing water is sufficient for mixing, stirring and casting the mixture, and 74 to 78 parts is preferred.
[0016] In the above method, the mixed slurry in step (2) is cast and molded, demoulded after 12 hours, and cured for 7 to 15 days at a temperature of 30° C. and a humidity of 60% to obtain an enhanced desulfurized gypsum product.

[0051] 1. Compared with the blank example, the anhydrous calcium chloride and sodium methyl silicate in comparative example 1 can significantly improve the mechanical strength and softening coefficient of the gypsum material; however, a large amount of Cl - , which will cause frost on the surface of gypsum products and affect the appearance quality.
[0052] 2. In Comparative Example 1, anhydrous calcium chloride is added first and sodium methyl silicate is added last (i.e., anhydrous calcium chloride is first added into water to dissolve, then calcined desulfurized gypsum is added and mixed evenly, and then sodium methyl silicate is added and mixed evenly before casting), in Comparative Example 2, anhydrous calcium chloride and sodium methyl silicate are added first at the same time (i.e., anhydrous calcium chloride and sodium methyl silicate are first added into water to dissolve, then calcined desulfurized gypsum is added and mixed evenly before casting), and the strength of the test block of Comparative Example 2 is significantly lower than that of the test block of the blank example and Comparative Example 1, which indicates that the order of adding sodium methyl silicate has a great influence on the strength of the gypsum material, that is, when sodium methyl silicate is added last, the strength of the gypsum material is improved, but when it is added first, it has the opposite effect.
[0053] 3. In Comparative Examples 1 and 2, anhydrous calcium chloride and sodium methyl silicate were added (without slag powder, steel slag powder and calcium aluminate cement). - , the Cl in the test block was measured - The contents were 800 mg / kg and 810 mg / kg respectively. In addition to anhydrous calcium chloride and sodium methyl silicate, slag powder, steel slag powder and calcium aluminate cement were added in Examples 1 to 3, which not only further improved the mechanical strength (especially the 24-hour saturated compressive strength increased by 54% to 117%) and the softening coefficient, but also significantly reduced the Cl - content.

[0055] V. Comparison of Comparative Examples 5 and 6 with Example 3 shows that when only sodium methyl silicate is added without adding anhydrous calcium chloride, the mechanical strength of the test block will be greatly reduced, and the greater the amount of sodium methyl silicate added, the greater the reduction in strength.
