Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of concrete, and in particular to an ultra-fine closed-cell structure seawater erosion-resistant foam concrete and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Foam concrete is a lightweight concrete material with a porous structure. It has good load reduction, heat insulation, sound insulation, earthquake resistance and other functions. At the same time, it has fast construction speed and low cost. It has been widely used in many fields.

[0003] Compared with conventional foam concrete, ultrafine closed-cell foam concrete has a finer pore structure, so it has a lower density and has more obvious advantages of being lightweight and high-strength. In addition, the smaller the pores, the more noise they can absorb, the lower the thermal conductivity, and the higher the strength they can achieve. In addition, ultrafine closed-cell foam concrete reduces the amount of cement used and can act on composite solid waste, which is in line with my country's policy requirements for carbon reduction and emission reduction and industrial closed-loop.

[0004] Although ultrafine closed-cell foam concrete is favored due to its many advantages, there are still some defects in the existing products of this type. For example, the stability of conventional ultrafine foam concrete is relatively low, especially in the application of coastal roads and bridges. Some materials are in a state of soaking in water for a long time. Conventional foam concrete has a high water absorption rate and obvious softening after water absorption, and its durability is poor. The application effect in coastal roads and bridges is not ideal; at the same time, the foam concrete in roads and bridges has a lower lifespan due to long-term outdoor exposure to multiple factors such as dry-wet cycles, sulfate erosion, and dynamic loads, and may experience cracking, fracture, erosion, pulverization, softening, etc.; in addition, after mixing cement and other materials with foam, the stability of the foam is poor, which will lead to large pore size, low closed-loop rate, uneven distribution, etc., which ultimately affects the durability of foam concrete in roads and bridges, especially in coastal areas.

[0005] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new technical solution to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Summary of the invention

Then, the intermediate product is reacted with components such as thickeners and surfactants.

[0128] Test Case

[0129] Test method:

[0130] The foamed concrete prepared in the embodiment and comparative example and the commercially available product were applied to a road in Zhuhai. After the construction was completed, core sampling and on-site sample retention were performed, and post-base testing was performed to obtain test results.

[0131] Among them, the erosion resistance is to soak the concrete in artificial seawater (about 5 times the concentration of natural seawater) for 120 days after standard curing for 28 days, and then measure the compressive strength and calculate the decrease rate compared with the initial compressive strength.

[0133] Table 1 Performance test results

[0134]

At the same time, it also has a small bubble structure. Since the embodiment has a more ideal porous structure, its water absorption rate is lower, and its erosion resistance is also more excellent. After long-term seawater immersion, the strength loss is significantly smaller. Therefore, the ultra-fine closed-cell structure seawater erosion resistant foam concrete of the present invention has both stronger performance and longer service life while effectively saving cement consumption, and has good application prospects.

Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-restrictive in all respects, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention.

[0137] In addition, it should be understood that although the present specification is described according to implementation modes, not every implementation mode contains only one independent technical solution. This description of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment may also be appropriately combined to form other implementation modes that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
