Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of concrete admixtures in building materials, and particularly relates to a temperature-suppressing, crack-resistant, and waterproof concrete agent and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Concrete is a non-homogeneous material, brittle and prone to cracking. Its inherent properties, including the exothermic reaction during cement hydration and shrinkage, create conditions conducive to leakage in structures. Related research indicates that temperature cracks and the volumetric shrinkage during cement hydration are the main causes of cracking in concrete structures. From the moment concrete is poured, the cementitious material releases heat during hydration, undergoing a temperature rise phase, reaching a peak temperature, and then entering a temperature drop and shrinkage phase until it cools to ambient temperature. Concrete itself has poor thermal conductivity, so in large-volume concrete structures, a temperature gradient often exists where the internal temperature is high and the surface temperature is low. This creates tensile stress on the concrete surface, causing early-age deformation and cracking. Therefore, waterproofing is crucial to prevent cracking and seepage from affecting the stability and durability of building structures.
[0003] In large-volume, high-strength, and highly constrained concrete projects, there are two main methods for waterproofing concrete structures: one is to coat or lay a waterproof layer on the surface to prevent corrosion, but this has a short service life and requires frequent repairs; the other is to incorporate a waterproofing agent into the concrete, which can compensate for shrinkage during the cement setting and hardening process, generate prestress in the reinforcing steel, and fully fill the gaps between cement particles. Currently used waterproofing agents include inorganic chloride salts, sulfates, and water glass; and organic waterproofing agents include fatty acid metal salts and synthetic resins. The addition of these waterproofing agents to concrete can significantly affect its performance. For example, chloride ions accelerate the corrosion of reinforcing steel, and sulfate ions corrode the concrete matrix. Therefore, current waterproofing methods and agents have certain shortcomings. Thus, seeking a new type of waterproofing material that can comprehensively improve the waterproofing of concrete structures and reduce the risk of cracking by controlling temperature is an urgent need for the construction industry. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the above problems, this invention provides a temperature-suppressing, crack-resistant concrete waterproofing agent and its preparation method.
[0005] This invention relates to a temperature-inhibiting and crack-resistant concrete waterproofing agent, the raw materials of which include siloxane diol, dihydroxy acid, diisocyanate, catalyst, diacylhydrazone chain extender and water; the molar ratio of the diisocyanate, siloxane diol, dihydroxy acid and diacylhydrazone chain extender is (1.98~2.05):(0.2~0.8):(0.2~0.8):(1.05~1.2); the solid content of the waterproofing agent is 20%~35%;
[0006] The diacylhydrazone chain extender is synthesized by the following steps:
[0007] 1) Dithiol hydrocarbons undergo an exchange reaction with disulfur dichloride to generate intermediate 1;
[0008] 2) Intermediate 1 undergoes a substitution reaction with hydroxyenal to generate intermediate 2;
[0009] 3) Intermediate 2 reacts with alkyl diacid hydrazide via a Schiff base reaction to obtain a diacylhydrazone chain extender.
[0010] Further, the conditions for step 1) are as follows: Dithiol hydrocarbon and disulfur dichloride are reacted in a 1,4 dioxane medium with N-bromosuccinimide as a catalyst under sealed stirring for 2-4 hours; after the reaction is completed, the reaction mixture is concentrated under vacuum and then purified by silica gel chromatography to obtain intermediate 1.
[0011] The molar ratio of the dimercaptohydrocarbon, disulfide dichloride and N-bromosuccinimide is 1:(3.9-4.2):(1.0-1.2); the dimercaptohydrocarbon is a C1-C5 aliphatic hydrocarbon containing two terminal thiol groups, thiazide, benzene, biphenyl, naphthalene, diphenyl ether, or diphenyl sulfide.
[0012] Further, the conditions for step 2) are as follows: Under a nitrogen atmosphere, intermediate 1 and hydroxyenal are stirred in a dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, anhydrous ethanol, or acetone medium, with triethylamine as an acid-binding agent, in an ice bath at -5 to 5°C for 2 to 3 hours and in a water bath at 40 to 50°C for 6 to 12 hours. After the reaction is completed, the mixture is filtered, washed with saturated brine, acetone is removed by rotary evaporation under reduced pressure, and the mixture is concentrated and recrystallized to obtain intermediate 2.
[0013] The molar ratio of the hydroxyenal, intermediate 1 and triethylamine is 1:(1.1-1.5):(0.99-1.20); the hydroxyenal is an aldehyde compound containing at least one hydroxyl group and one carbon-carbon double bond.
[0014] Further, the conditions for step 3) are as follows: In anhydrous benzene, toluene, or ethanol medium, intermediate 2 and alkyl diacid hydrazide are heated under reflux in an oil bath at 50–60°C for 6–9 h with acetic acid as a catalyst; after the reaction is completed, the mixture is filtered through a Buchner funnel, the solvent is removed by rotary evaporation, the product is concentrated, and then sealed and stored at low temperature under argon gas. The molar ratio of intermediate 2, alkyl diacid hydrazide, and acetic acid is 1:(2–2.2):(0.8–1.0); the alkyl diacid hydrazide is selected from one or more of C3–C12 aliphatic hydrocarbon diacid hydrazides, phthalic acid diacid hydrazides, isophthalic acid diacid hydrazides, and terephthalic acid diacid hydrazides.
[0015] Furthermore, the siloxane diol is a siloxane substance containing two hydroxyl groups; representative examples include 1,3-bis(3-hydroxypropyl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane, (1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-1,3-disiloxanediyl)diethanol, 3-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]propane-triethoxysilane, α-[3-[1,3,3,3-tetramethyl-1-(trimethylsilyl-oxo)disiloxane]-propyl-ω-hydroxypolyoxyethylene), and dihydroxyethoxypropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane.
[0016] The dihydroxy acid is a mono- or dicarboxylic acid containing two hydroxyl groups; representative examples include: 2,2-dimethylolpropionic acid, 2,2-dimethylolbutyric acid, 3,4-dihydroxybutyric acid, ketomalonic acid, glyceric acid, tartaric acid, dihydroxybenzoic acid, dihydroxyphenylacetic acid, 3,5-dihydroxy-4-methylbenzoic acid, 4,6-dihydroxyisophthalic acid, caffeic acid, 2,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid, and 3,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid.
[0017] Furthermore, the catalyst is added in an amount of 0.5% to 1.2% of the total mass of the system, and is selected from one or more of dibutyltin dilaurate (DBTDL), hexamethylenediamine (TEDA), N-alkyldiamine, N-alkylmorpholine, stannous octoate, zinc bismuth composite catalyst, bismuth isooctanoate, organozinc, and zinc neocaprate.
[0018] Further, the diisocyanate is one of 4-toluene diisocyanate, trans-1,4-cyclohexyl diisocyanate, 2,6-toluene diisocyanate, 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, dicyclohexylmethane-4,4-diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, 1,6-hexane diisocyanate, and lysine diisocyanate.
[0019] On the other hand, the present invention provides a method for preparing a temperature-suppressing and crack-resistant concrete waterproofing agent, comprising the following steps:
[0020] Dihydroxy acid and siloxane diol were pretreated by vacuum dehydration and drying at 120°C. Then, under a nitrogen atmosphere, the dihydroxy acid and siloxane diol were added to a four-necked flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, reflux condenser, thermometer, and constant-pressure dropping funnel, and stirred at room temperature. The temperature was gradually increased to 60–70°C, and a mixture of diisocyanate and catalyst was added dropwise at 500–700 rpm. After the addition was completed, stirring was continued at 60–70°C for 1–2 hours. An aprotic solvent was added to adjust the viscosity of the system, and the temperature was increased to 90–120°C and stirred at a constant temperature for 5–9 hours. The system temperature was lowered to 40–60°C, and a diacylhydrazone chain extender was added, followed by stirring at a constant temperature for 3–4 hours. A neutralizing agent was added until the pH of the system reached 7.0–7.5, and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. Deionized water was added and stirred at high speed at 1000–1500 rpm for 30 minutes to emulsify and disperse the mixture. Residual aprotic solvent was removed by rotary evaporation to obtain a polyurethane emulsion-type waterproofing agent.
[0021] Furthermore, the aprotic solvent is one or more of butanone, dioxane, dimethylformamide, benzene, and toluene; the neutralizing agent is one of NH4OH, NaOH, monoethylamine, diethylamine, triethylamine, and triethanolamine.
[0022] This invention also provides the application of the above-mentioned temperature-suppressing and crack-resistant concrete waterproofing agent in the preparation of concrete.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0024] In terms of crack resistance and self-healing ability, the temperature-suppressing and crack-resistant concrete waterproofing agent provided by this technical solution has high symmetry and good three-dimensional regularity, and is easy to arrange into a highly ordered structure; its polymer structure contains dynamic groups such as carbon-carbon double bonds, disulfide bonds and hydrazone bonds, which makes the molecular chain further exhibit good elasticity and flexibility; when the material has micro-cracks, it can participate in reversible dynamic covalent bond reactions, so that the molecular chain segments rearrange and combine, and self-repair the cracks or damage.
[0025] Regarding temperature suppression, in concrete waterproofing agents, disulfide bonds and acylhydrazone groups possess energy absorption characteristics. Their reverse fracture or dissociation processes during temperature increases can absorb heat from the environment, acting as a temperature buffer and preventing stress concentration caused by temperature changes. Furthermore, they can form hydrogen bonds with cement hydration products and minerals in concrete, thereby increasing the cohesion of the concrete and making the material more structurally stable under temperature changes. Meanwhile, carbon-carbon double bonds can undergo cross-linking reactions at high temperatures to form a tight three-dimensional network structure, restricting the movement of molecular chains and thus reducing heat accumulation caused by intensified molecular chain movement.
[0026] Regarding waterproofing capabilities, the concrete waterproofing agent provided by this invention can form a continuous and dense waterproof membrane on the surface of concrete or other building materials, effectively preventing moisture penetration. During the drying and film-forming process of the waterproofing agent, acylhydrazone bonds, disulfide bonds, and silanyl groups can chemically bond with concrete raw materials to form a composite waterproofing system; the presence of double bonds can adjust the flexibility and hardness of the polymer, better adapting to the deformation of the base material while maintaining the integrity of the waterproof membrane.
[0027] The present invention features a simple and easy-to-operate preparation route from the synthesis of diacylhydrazone chain extender to concrete waterproofing agent, with mild reaction and abundant raw materials. Attached Figure Description

[0086] Application example: Preparation of concrete with the above-mentioned temperature-inhibiting and crack-resistant waterproofing agent.
[0087] The temperature-inhibiting and crack-resistant concrete waterproofing agents of all the above embodiments and comparative examples were diluted with water and added to the concrete mix at 2% of the cement weight to prepare concrete test block samples. A blank group (reference test block sample) was also arranged. In addition, the concrete raw materials also included: 180 parts cement, 80 parts mineral powder, 100 parts fly ash, 800 parts river sand, 1000 parts crushed stone, 190 parts mixing water, and 10 parts polycarboxylate high-efficiency water-reducing agent. Among them, the cement was Huaren P·O 42.5 silicate cement; the fine aggregate was continuous graded medium sand with a fineness modulus of 3.0-2.3 and a mud content of ≤0.5%, produced by Macheng Chuhe Sand and Gravel State-owned Management Co., Ltd.; the coarse aggregate was water-washed and dried 5-20mm continuously graded Class I building crushed stone with a mud content of ≤0.5%, produced by Xianning Xian'an District Xinxin Mining Co., Ltd.; the fly ash was Class F Class I power plant fly ash with a specific surface area of 450m². 2 / kg, Wuhan Lianhekang Biotechnology Co., Ltd.; S95 mineral powder, specific surface area 480m² 2 / kg, density is 2.68g / cm³ 3 Lingshou County Defa Mineral Products Processing Plant; Polycarboxylate High-Efficiency Water Reducing Agent, with an air content of 5%, a water bleeding rate of 45%, and a water reduction rate of 28%, Hubei Guiyi New Building Materials Co., Ltd.
[0088] The concrete samples prepared for each application example were tested:
[0089] Semi-adiabatic temperature rise test: Concrete specimens were placed in a temperature measuring device within 10 minutes of adding water and mixing, and then placed in a constant temperature test chamber at 20±2℃. The temperature changes of the concrete specimens and the ambient temperature were recorded at a frequency of once every 10 minutes using a temperature sensor. After the peak temperature rise was measured, a cooling phase was initiated, and temperature measurement was stopped after 24 hours. The time required for each concrete specimen sample and the control group to reach a 5℃ temperature rise from the end of water addition and mixing, as well as the peak temperature, were recorded. The temperature suppression rate was calculated by comparing the peak temperature of the concrete specimen samples in the example with that of the control group.
[0090] 48-hour water absorption ratio and permeability height ratio: Both were tested according to standard GB / T 50082-2009 "Standard for Test Methods of Long-Term Performance and Durability of Ordinary Concrete". Water absorption ratio = 48-hour water absorption of concrete specimen sample / 48-hour water absorption of blank group. The 48-hour water absorption of the blank group was 1235 g / m³. 2 The permeability height ratio = permeability height of the concrete specimen / permeability height of the control group; the impermeability pressure used was 1.6 MPa, constant pressure for 24 hours; the impermeability height of the control group was 80.4 mm. The water absorption ratio mainly reflects the water absorption capacity of concrete in a static water environment, while the permeability height ratio reflects the permeability of concrete under pressurized water. These two properties together demonstrate the impermeability of the concrete.
[0091] The compressive strength of the concrete specimens was obtained by testing according to the provisions of the national standard GB / T50081-2002 "Standard for Test Methods of Mechanical Properties of Ordinary Concrete". The ratio of the compressive strength of the specimens to that of the blank group is called the compressive strength ratio. The compressive strengths of the blank group were 23.6 MPa (7 days) and 34.4 MPa (28 days).
[0092] The test results are shown in Table 2.
[0093] Table 2
[0094]
[0095] As can be seen from the various embodiments, the temperature-suppressing and crack-resistant waterproofing agent of the present invention has good waterproofing performance. The water absorption ratio after 48 days is less than 40%, and the penetration height ratio is not greater than 30%, which meets the requirements of the first-class product of the national standard JC / T474-2008. The compressive strength ratio meets the requirements of the qualified product of the national standard JC / T474-2008. The temperature suppression rate is increased to 47% to 57.5%, which meets the performance index requirements of the group standard T / CECS10270-2023.
[0096] Examples 1-3 demonstrate the improvement in temperature suppression and crack resistance of concrete achieved by introducing carbon-carbon double bond groups into the waterproofing agent. Whether located in the main chain (Examples 2-3) or side chain (Example 1) of the polyurethane polymer carbon chain, the carbon-carbon double bond exhibits a certain degree of reactivity. Through cross-linking reactions, it forms a dense network structure, fills the internal pores of the concrete, and effectively prevents water penetration. It is worth noting that the double bonds of the diacylhydrazone chain extender polymers obtained in Examples 2 and 3 are located on the polymer main chain. The π-electron cloud of the double bond restricts the rotation of the molecular chain segments to some extent, thereby increasing the rigidity of the molecular chain. Therefore, the compressive strength of the concrete in Examples 2 and 3 is slightly higher than that in Example 1.
[0097] Compared to Example 1, the polymerization of caffeic acid and isocyanate in Example 4 increased the content of carbon-carbon double bonds, resulting in superior temperature-suppressing and crack-resistant effects. The glyceric acid used in Example 5 lacked benzene rings and carbon-carbon double bonds, leading to a slight decrease in waterproofing performance compared to Example 1. Therefore, hydroxydiacids containing unsaturated bonds can be further preferred. In Example 6, the siloxane diol molecule contained additional tertiary amine groups, which could form more hydrogen bonds with concrete raw materials, thus resulting in different waterproofing performance. Furthermore, the tertiary amine groups made the waterproofing agent molecules slightly more hydrophilic than in Example 1, resulting in a higher 48-hour water absorption rate.
[0098] The results of Examples 1, 7-8, and Comparative Example 4 demonstrate the role of siloxane diols in waterproofing agents. The two silanyl groups in the siloxane diol readily hydrolyze into silanyl hydroxyl groups in alkaline concrete, which can combine with the silica in calcium silicate to form a network-like three-dimensional structure, improving the overall strength of the product. Furthermore, the hydrophobic siloxanes are neatly arranged on the capillary walls, hindering the penetration of water into the interior, making the concrete more waterproof overall. The proportion of siloxane diols in Examples 7, 1, and 8 increases sequentially, thus their waterproofing effect increases accordingly; in Comparative Example 4, no siloxane diol is added, and its waterproofing performance on concrete decreases slightly.
[0099] The test results of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 demonstrate that the carbon-carbon double bonds, disulfide bonds, and acylhydrazone groups abundant in the waterproofing agent of the present invention work together to inhibit temperature and cracking, doubling the temperature inhibition rate and improving the impermeability by more than 25%. Furthermore, in conjunction with Examples 9-10, the proportion of the waterproofing agent in concrete should be appropriately adjusted according to the actual engineering needs. Too little will result in insufficient crack resistance and waterproofing performance of the concrete; too much will increase the flexibility of the concrete and sacrifice some compressive strength.
[0100] In summary, the temperature-suppressing and crack-resistant concrete waterproofing agent provided by this invention has significant and excellent temperature control, crack resistance and waterproofing effects. When applied to large-scale engineering concrete, it can meet the requirements of construction fields with high waterproofing requirements, such as underground engineering and hydraulic structures.
[0101] The various embodiments of the present invention have been described above. These descriptions are exemplary and not exhaustive, nor are they limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments.
