Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of soil heavy metal early warning, and in particular to a straw mortar composite building block pretreatment method. Background Art

[0002] With the development of social economy and the enhancement of environmental awareness, the search for green building materials that can replace traditional building materials has become a research hotspot. China produces more than 700 million tons of crop straw every year (Xie Guanghui et al., 2010). These biomass resources are suitable for use as building materials due to their light weight, porosity, and good thermal insulation. However, the bonding force between untreated straw and cement mortar is weak, mainly because the wax layer and sugar substances on the surface of the straw hinder the bonding between the two and reduce the performance of the composite material.

[0003] However, existing research on the optimization of pretreatment conditions is not systematic and comprehensive enough. The pretreatment effects under different conditions vary greatly, and further research is needed to determine the optimal parameters. In addition, existing research is mostly limited to laboratory scale and lacks verification of large-scale production and practical application.

[0004] In summary, developing an efficient and stable straw pretreatment method to improve the comprehensive performance of straw mortar composite blocks has important scientific significance and application value. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention proposes a method for preparing high-quality straw mortar composite building blocks by optimizing pretreatment conditions. The specific technical scheme is as follows: A straw mortar composite building block pretreatment method, characterized in that it comprises the following steps: The rice or wheat straw is crushed into small pieces with a length of 3 to 5 cm using a mechanical crusher; Soak the crushed straw in 1-5% sodium hydroxide solution for 5-25 minutes; The straw was rinsed with clean water several times until the pH value was close to neutral, and then dried in an oven at 60°C to constant weight to obtain powdered straw; Add the pre-treated straw into cement mortar at a ratio of 10-18% and mix thoroughly; Pour the mixed mortar into the triple test mold, first fill it to half the height of the mold, tamp it evenly, then fill the mold to the top, and continue tamping until the mortar surface is flat; The molded specimens were left to stand for 2 days before being demolded, numbered, and placed in a standard curing box for 28 days to obtain modified straw mortar composite blocks.

[0006] Furthermore, the concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution is preferably 5%.

[0007] Furthermore, the straw is preferably soaked in the sodium hydroxide solution for 24 minutes.

[0008] Furthermore, the ratio of the straw added to the cement mortar is preferably 18%.

[0009] Furthermore, the water-cement ratio of the cement mortar is 0.85, the water consumption is 409 kg / m³, and the mixing time is 101 seconds.

[0010] Furthermore, the curing conditions of the composite building blocks are 80% relative humidity and 20°C temperature.

[0011] Furthermore, the structures of the composite building blocks include type I, type II and type III.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and features: Improving the thermal performance of straw mortar by changing the block type: The present invention designs three different types of blocks (type I, type II, and type III), and the structural design of each type of block is optimized to improve the thermal performance of straw mortar composite blocks. The experimental results show that different types of blocks show significant differences in thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, and thermal resistance. In particular, type III blocks have the lowest thermal conductivity (0.257 W / (m·K)), the smallest thermal diffusivity (0.263 mm² / s), and the highest thermal resistance (33.835 K / W), showing excellent thermal insulation performance. This shows that the thermal performance of straw mortar composite blocks can be significantly improved through reasonable block structure design.

[0013] Improving the thermal performance of straw mortar by pretreatment: The present invention effectively removes the wax layer and some sugar substances on the surface of the straw through pretreatment with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution, increases the specific surface area and porosity of the straw, makes the surface of the straw rougher, and thus significantly enhances the bonding force between the straw and the cement mortar. The interfacial compatibility between the pretreated straw and the cement mortar is significantly improved, making the overall structure of the composite block more stable and strong. In addition, sodium hydroxide treatment can also improve the water absorption and water retention of the straw, which helps to improve the strength and stability of the composite material. The experimental results show that the pretreated straw mortar composite block is superior to the untreated sample in terms of thermal conductivity, thermal diffusion coefficient and thermal resistance, indicating that the pretreatment method has a significant effect on improving the thermal performance of the straw mortar composite block.
