Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of concrete, and in particular to concrete for road construction and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In modern road construction projects, concrete is undoubtedly the core material for road paving, and its importance is self-evident. At present, traffic volume is showing a trend of continuous increase, vehicle load is constantly breaking records, and the service environment of roads is becoming more and more complex and changeable. Under such a background, the requirements for concrete strength in road construction have also reached a new height.
[0003] As a fiber-reinforced material, polypropylene fiber has been widely used due to its light weight, high strength and excellent tensile properties. However, in the process of using polypropylene fiber to improve the strength of concrete, the fiber is often prone to agglomeration and difficult to disperse evenly. This drawback seriously weakens the strengthening effect of polypropylene fiber on the strength of concrete. In view of this, it is of great significance to improve the strength of concrete containing polypropylene fibers. Summary of the invention
[0004] The invention provides concrete for road construction and a preparation method thereof, which solves the problem of low strength of concrete containing polypropylene fibers in the related art.
[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: The present invention provides a concrete for road construction, wherein the raw materials include the following components in parts by weight: 100 parts of cement, 20-40 parts of fly ash, 150-250 parts of river sand, 200-300 parts of basalt, 50-55 parts of polypropylene fiber reinforcement, and 60-80 parts of water; The raw materials of the polypropylene fiber reinforcement include polypropylene fiber, polyvinyl butyral and magnesium oxide in a weight ratio of 48:1 to 6:1.
[0006] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of the polypropylene fiber reinforcement comprises the following steps: dissolving polyvinyl butyral in ethanol, adding polypropylene fiber and magnesium oxide, dispersing evenly, and drying to obtain the polypropylene fiber reinforcement.
[0007] As a further technical solution, the polyvinyl butyral includes a first polyvinyl butyral and a second polyvinyl butyral, and the weight average molecular weight of the first polyvinyl butyral is smaller than the weight average molecular weight of the second polyvinyl butyral.
[0008] In the present invention, the inventors found that when two polyvinyl butyrals with different weight average molecular weights are used for modification, the strength of concrete can be further improved. It is speculated that the use of two polyvinyl butyrals with different weight average molecular weights can further improve the coating modification effect, thereby further improving the strength of concrete.
[0009] As a further technical solution, the weight average molecular weight of the first polyvinyl butyral is 15,000-27,000, and the weight average molecular weight of the second polyvinyl butyral is 92,000-130,000.
[0010] In the present invention, when the weight average molecular weight of the first polyvinyl butyral is 15000-27000 and the weight average molecular weight of the second polyvinyl butyral is 92000-130000, it helps to further improve the strength of the concrete.
[0011] As a further technical solution, the weight of the first polyvinyl butyral is greater than the weight of the second polyvinyl butyral.
[0012] In the present invention, when the weight of the first polyvinyl butyral is greater than the weight of the second polyvinyl butyral, it helps to further improve the strength of the concrete.
[0013] As a further technical solution, the weight ratio of the first polyvinyl butyral to the second polyvinyl butyral is 2-3:1.
[0014] As a further technical solution, the particle size of the fly ash is 10-50 μm.
[0015] As a further technical solution, the particle size of the river sand is 0.5~2mm.
[0016] As a further technical solution, the particle size of the basalt is 4-6 mm.
[0017] In the present invention, by designing the particle sizes of fly ash, river sand and basalt, the packing density can be increased, the voids can be reduced, the amount of cement in the concrete can be reduced, and the cost can be saved.
[0018] As a further technical solution, the raw materials further include 4 to 6 parts of a water reducing agent; The water reducer is a polycarboxylate water reducer or a naphthalene water reducer.
[0019] In the present invention, the addition of the water reducing agent can improve the fluidity of the concrete and help the concrete maintain good working performance.
[0020] As a further technical solution, the raw materials also include 2 to 4 parts of antifreeze; The antifreeze agent includes one or both of calcium nitrite and sodium nitrite.
[0021] In the present invention, the addition of antifreeze can prevent concrete from being unable to harden normally due to freezing.
[0022] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the concrete for road construction, comprising the following steps: mixing the components evenly to obtain the concrete for road construction.
[0023] The working principle and beneficial effects of the present invention are: In the present invention, polypropylene fibers are treated with polyvinyl butyral and magnesium oxide, which, on the one hand, improves the hydrophilicity of the surface of the polypropylene fibers and enhances the dispersion effect of the polypropylene fibers in concrete, thereby greatly improving the strengthening effect of the polypropylene fibers; on the other hand, changes the roughness of the surface of the polypropylene fibers, enhances the bonding performance between the polypropylene fibers and the cement matrix, and thus significantly improves the strength of the concrete.
