Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of concrete materials, and in particular to a low-viscosity self-compacting concrete and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the modern civil engineering industry, the demand for concrete is increasing. However, traditional concrete materials are difficult to meet the needs of development due to their limited performance. Self-compacting concrete is a type of concrete that can be filled and compacted by its own gravity flow without the help of vibration. It can greatly simplify the pouring process and save manpower. Since self-compacting concrete is designed based on a high amount of cementitious materials, compared with ordinary concrete, it uses more materials and has a higher cost. Its viscosity will also increase due to the large amount of cementitious materials used.

[0003] At present, the concrete market is highly competitive and urgently needs to reduce costs and increase efficiency, while ensuring that concrete has qualified performance. Self-compacting concrete is a special concrete with high cost and high demand. If its economy can be improved and its performance can be guaranteed, it will produce huge benefits.

[0004] Patent CN106365536B discloses a self-compacting expansive concrete, which includes the following ingredients, by weight: 340-400 parts of cement, 80-120 parts of mineral powder, 50-70 parts of fly ash, 900-1100 parts of coarse aggregate, 680-760 parts of fine aggregate, 10-20 parts of water reducer, 23-29 parts of expansive agent, 3.0-3.4 parts of synergist, 2.4-2.8 parts of sodium monofluorophosphate, 2.8-3.4 parts of sodium alginate, and 350-390 parts of water.

[0005] Patent CN107098642B discloses a high-strength self-compacting concrete, whose raw materials include 355-367 parts of cement, 724-748 parts of sand, 885-915 parts of 5-16 mm crushed stone, 77-87 parts of fly ash, 103-119 parts of mineral powder, 26-32 parts of silica fume, 12.40-14.42 parts of special admixture, 4-5 parts of shrinkage reducer, and 157-171 parts of water, by weight.

[0006] The current self-compacting concrete, as disclosed in the above patents, uses a relatively large proportion of cement, which is expensive, resulting in a high cost of the self-compacting concrete. Summary of the invention

[0007] In view of the problem of high production cost of existing self-compacting concrete, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a low-viscosity self-compacting concrete and a preparation method thereof. By increasing the fly ash dosage and adding a viscosity regulator, the cost of preparing the self-compacting concrete is reduced while the viscosity can be controlled, and the concrete has excellent working performance, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing costs and increasing efficiency.

[0008] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0009] In a first aspect, the present application provides a low-viscosity self-compacting concrete, which is composed of the following raw materials in parts by weight: 330 to 370 parts of cement, 202 to 222 parts of fly ash, 40 to 50 parts of silica fume, 800 to 900 parts of fine aggregate, 900 to 100 parts of coarse aggregate, 172 to 192 parts of water, 9 to 15 parts of water reducer, and 0.2 to 0.3 parts of viscosity regulator;

[0010] The viscosity modifier is composed of the following raw materials in parts by weight: 4 to 10 parts of acrylic acid, 1 to 12 parts of hydroxyethyl acrylate, 0.06 to 2 parts of a reducing agent, 0.9 to 2.5 parts of an oxidizing agent, and 0.8 to 1.6 parts of a chain transfer agent.

[0011] The cement is ordinary silicate cement or composite silicate cement 42.5 or 52.5 or a mixture of several thereof.

[0012] The low-strength self-compacting concrete of the present invention reduces the amount of expensive cement by increasing the amount of fly ash added, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the production cost of the self-compacting concrete. At the same time, the unique molecular structure of the added viscosity regulator produces steric hindrance and electrostatic repulsion between the cement molecules, preventing the cement molecules from approaching each other, thereby achieving the effect of reducing viscosity. Moreover, the reactive monomer of the viscosity regulator has good solubility, making it more compatible with the water reducing agent, thereby enabling the prepared self-compacting concrete to have excellent working performance and maintain economy under the condition of good strength performance.

[0013] The fly ash in the present invention is composed of a large number of spherical glass bodies with smooth surfaces, which plays a role of "ball lubrication", can break the flocculation structure of cement slurry, and can improve the cohesiveness of concrete. At the same time, the morphology and hydrophilicity of fly ash particles, and its spherical glass bodies can absorb a layer of water film, which can make the concrete have good water retention. In addition, silica ash particles are fine and highly dispersible. The main component of silica ash is active silicon dioxide. Silica ash can effectively improve the strength of concrete through filling effect and volcanic effect, and can also play a unique micro-aggregate effect, improve the particle size distribution of particles, make the particle raw materials pile up more tightly, and through the mutual cooperation between the raw materials, the prepared self-compacting concrete has good performance and low cost.

[0014] Furthermore, the reducing agent includes one of ethyl methyl cellulose ether and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose ether.

[0015] Furthermore, the oxidant includes one of hydrogen peroxide and benzoyl peroxide.

[0016] Furthermore, the chain transfer agent includes one of thioglycolic acid, mercaptopropionic acid, and mercaptoethanol.

[0017] Furthermore, the silica fume activity index is greater than 110%.

[0018] Furthermore, the fine aggregate is medium sand with a fineness modulus of 2.6 to 2.8.

[0019] Furthermore, the coarse aggregate is crushed stone with a size of 5 mm to 20 mm.

[0020] Furthermore, the fly ash includes one of Class I fly ash and Class II fly ash.

[0021] Furthermore, the preparation method of the viscosity modifier comprises the following steps:

[0022] Put the reducing agent and deionized water in a reaction container and stir to fully dissolve them;

[0023] Then, acrylic acid, hydroxyethyl acrylate, oxidant and chain transfer agent are added dropwise into the container, reacted at an ambient temperature of 25°C to 35°C, and kept warm for 1h to 1.2h. After the reaction is completed, the pH value is adjusted to 6 to 7 to prepare a viscosity regulator.

[0024] In a second aspect, the present application provides a method for preparing a low-viscosity self-compacting concrete, comprising the following steps:

[0025] Add fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and part of water into a mixer and mix well;

[0026] Add cement, fly ash, silica fume, high-performance water reducing agent and viscosity regulator and stir to mix;

[0027] Add the remaining water and stir to mix well to obtain a self-compacting concrete with high fly ash content and low viscosity.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0029] The low-strength self-compacting concrete of the present invention reduces the amount of expensive cement by increasing the amount of fly ash added, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the production cost of the self-compacting concrete. At the same time, the added viscosity regulator reduces the viscosity of the self-compacting concrete, and can still maintain excellent working performance under high gel material dosage.

The low-viscosity self-compacting concrete according to claim 1, characterized in that: The preparation method of the viscosity modifier comprises the following steps: Put the reducing agent and deionized water in a reaction container and stir to fully dissolve them; Then, acrylic acid, hydroxyethyl acrylate, oxidant and chain transfer agent are added dropwise into the container, reacted at an ambient temperature of 25°C to 35°C, and kept warm for 1h to 1.2h. After the reaction is completed, the pH value is adjusted to 6 to 7 to prepare a viscosity regulator.

10. A method for preparing low-viscosity self-compacting concrete, characterized in that: The following steps are involved: Add fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and part of water into a mixer and mix well; Add cement, fly ash, silica fume, high-performance water reducing agent and viscosity regulator and stir to mix; Add the remaining water and stir to mix well to obtain a self-compacting concrete with high fly ash content and low viscosity.
