[0001] This invention relates to the field of ultra-high performance concrete technology, and in particular to a sprayable ultra-high performance concrete for high-altitude and cold regions, and its preparation and application methods. Background Technology

[0002] Ultra-high performance concrete has excellent mechanical properties and durability, especially its resistance to bending, low water absorption, high surface density, and stain resistance. It currently has promising application prospects in national defense engineering, marine engineering, nuclear industry, special security and protection engineering, and municipal engineering.

[0003] Given the numerous advantages of ultra-high performance concrete, its application scenarios are becoming increasingly widespread.

[0004] With increasingly complex architectural designs, direct casting is no longer feasible. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop sprayable concrete material systems. However, sprayable ultra-high performance concrete suffers from drawbacks such as poor compressive strength, poor toughness, and insufficient water permeability resistance. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a sprayable ultra-high performance concrete for high-altitude and cold regions, as well as its preparation and application methods.

[0006] A type of ultra-high performance concrete that can be sprayed in cold regions, the raw materials of which include: premix and activated glass fiber, the mass ratio of premix and activated glass fiber is 220-300:6-12.

[0007] The raw materials of the premixed material, by weight, include: 70-80 parts cement, 10-20 parts silica fume, 5-15 parts fly ash, 70-75 parts coarse sand, 33-39 parts fine sand, 10-15 parts ultrafine composite powder, 4-6 parts water-reducing agent, 4-8 parts quick-setting agent, 5-10 parts microcrystalline cellulose, 1-2 parts methyl methacrylate, 0.01-0.1 parts cerium ammonium nitrate, 1-2 parts ethylenediamine, 1-2 parts methyl acrylate, 3-7 parts steel fiber, 1-2 parts graphene oxide, and 13-17 parts water.

[0008] Activated glass fiber is obtained by treating glass fiber with an alkaline solution, then adding it together with siloxane into an aqueous ethanol solution and heating it.

[0009] Preferably, the cement is PO42.5 silicate cement.

[0010] Preferably, the coarse sand is 16-26 mesh manufactured sand, the fine sand is 26-40 mesh quartz sand, and the ultrafine composite powder is 40-80 mesh.

[0011] Preferably, the ultrafine composite powder is fluorite ore waste sand and / or copper slag.

[0012] Preferably, the activated glass fiber is prepared by the following specific operation: the glass fiber is added to an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and ultrasonically treated for 5-15 minutes, filtered, washed, and vacuum dried, and then added to an aqueous ethanol solution with aminopropyltriethoxysilane, stirred at 80-90°C for 1-2 hours, filtered, washed, and vacuum dried.

[0013] Preferably, the mass ratio of glass fiber to aminopropyltriethoxysilane is 5-10:1-2.

[0014] Preferably, the concentration of the sodium hydroxide aqueous solution is 0.5-1.2 mol / L, and the mass fraction of the ethanol aqueous solution is 40-60%.

[0015] The preparation method of the above-mentioned ultra-high performance concrete that can be sprayed in high-altitude and cold regions includes the following steps:

[0016] S1. Mix cement, silica fume, coarse sand, fine sand, ultrafine composite powder, water-reducing agent, and quick-setting agent evenly to obtain a cementitious material;

[0017] S2. Add microcrystalline cellulose to methanol and stir evenly. Under nitrogen protection, add methyl methacrylate and stir evenly. Add cerium ammonium nitrate and stir at 30-50℃ for 1-2 hours. Add ethylenediamine and stir at 50-60℃ for 5-15 hours. Add methyl acrylate and continue stirring for 10-20 hours. Cool to room temperature, add water, centrifuge, wash, and vacuum dry to obtain activated cellulose.

[0018] S3. Add steel fibers, graphene oxide, activated cellulose and water to the cementitious material and mix evenly to obtain a premix; mix the premix with activated glass fibers and spray.

[0019] The above-mentioned method for using ultra-high performance concrete in high-altitude and cold regions involves adding premixed material to a mortar spraying machine for spraying, while activated glass fiber is mixed with the premixed material and sprayed at the nozzle of the mortar spraying machine.

[0021] Beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. This invention uses activated cellulose to enhance the anti-sagging properties of mortar, combined with activated glass fiber. The two are bonded together by hydrogen bonds, which binds concrete cement with ultrafine composite powder, silica fume, fine sand and coarse sand together, improving the cohesiveness and filling properties of the mortar and solving the problem of uneven dispersion of sprayed mortar.

[0023] 2. This invention grafts dendritic macromolecules onto the surface of microcrystalline cellulose, resulting in a product surface rich in amino groups. Combined with activated glass fibers, this is added to the system in steps, giving ultra-high performance concrete excellent workability. It not only improves early hydration reaction and significantly increases early strength compared to ordinary concrete, but also exhibits good water permeability resistance when combined with graphene oxide. Furthermore, the setting time is adjustable. The two-dimensional plane of graphene oxide has numerous functionalizable binding sites, which, when combined with activated cellulose, increase system stability and form intermolecular hydrogen bonds with water molecules, inhibiting water crystallization and effectively lowering the freezing point. This makes it particularly suitable for use in cold regions.

[0024] 3. This invention effectively avoids layered spraying, and the surface of the contact surface with the mold is free of exposed fibers, further improving production efficiency. It can be sprayed, has good fluidity and post-spray thixotropy, does not drip, and is suitable for various spraying equipment, with broad application prospects.

[0025] 4. The preparation process of this invention is simple, ensuring that sprayed concrete can be successfully constructed in low-temperature environments, while effectively shortening the construction period, improving social and economic benefits, and making it suitable for large-scale promotion and application.

[0099] The applicant believes that this is because the present invention grafts dendritic macromolecules onto the surface of microcrystalline cellulose, making the product surface rich in amino groups. Combined with the activation of glass fibers, the product is added to the system in steps, which enables ultra-high performance concrete to have good workability, improve its early hydration reaction, and significantly increase its early strength compared to ordinary concrete.

[0100] The impermeability grades of the concrete obtained in Example 5 and Comparative Examples 1-2 after 28 days of curing were tested in accordance with GB 50164-2011 "Standard for Quality Control of Concrete". The impermeability grade of the concrete obtained in Example 5 reached P40, the impermeability grade of the concrete obtained in Comparative Example 1 was P27, and the impermeability grade of the concrete obtained in Comparative Example 2 was P19.

[0101] The applicant believes that this invention grafts dendritic macromolecules onto the surface of microcrystalline cellulose, resulting in a product surface rich in amino groups. Combined with the activation of glass fibers, the product is added to the system stepwise. In conjunction with the effect of graphene oxide, it exhibits excellent water resistance. Furthermore, the two-dimensional plane of graphene oxide has a large number of functionalizable binding sites, which, when combined with activated cellulose, increase the stability of the system. It can also form intermolecular hydrogen bonds with water molecules, inhibiting water molecule crystallization and effectively lowering the freezing point, making it particularly suitable for use in cold regions.

[0102] The mortars obtained in Example 5 and Comparative Examples 1-2 were used for vertical spraying on the wall according to the method used in Example 5. It was found that the mortar obtained in Example 5 had a uniform spray surface, while the spraying effect of Comparative Example 1 was not ideal, with occasional clogging and pulse "explosion" phenomena. Although Comparative Example 2 could be sprayed, the dispersion was uneven during spraying, and fiber clusters were visible to the naked eye on the sprayed surface.

[0103] The applicant believes that this invention uses activated cellulose to enhance the anti-sagging properties of the mortar, combined with activated glass fiber. The two are bonded together by hydrogen bonds, which binds the concrete cement with ultrafine composite powder, silica fume, fine sand and coarse sand, thereby improving the cohesiveness and filling properties of the slurry and solving the problem of uneven dispersion of the sprayed slurry.

[0104] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
