Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of admixtures and provides a collapse-retaining polycarboxylic acid water-reducing agent and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Concrete is a cementitious composite material formed by cement, sandstone, steel bars and other reinforcing materials. Due to its low price, wide source and easy construction, concrete has always been a major building material and is widely used in buildings such as buildings, roads and bridges. With the rapid development of the construction industry, the quality requirements for concrete are getting higher and higher. Among them, the slump retention of concrete is of great significance to the promotion and application of commercial concrete, because commercial concrete needs to meet the construction slump requirements after being transported to the construction site for a long time, which puts higher requirements on the slump retention performance of admixtures.
[0003] At present, the slump-retaining polycarboxylic acid water-reducing agent on the market has a single ingredient, a high dosage during use, and the carboxyl group is released too quickly. During long-distance transportation, the slump-retaining property of the water-reducing agent is poor, usually only retaining the slump for 1 to 2 hours, and it is highly sensitive to materials (prone to concrete segregation, poor fluidity, etc.), resulting in excessively high costs for concrete during use, limiting the application of concrete. Summary of the invention
[0004] In order to solve the above problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a collapse-preserving polycarboxylate water-reducing agent and a preparation method and application thereof. The collapse-preserving polycarboxylate water-reducing agent prepared by the present invention has improved water-reducing effect and a longer collapse-preserving time.
[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a collapse-retaining polycarboxylic acid water-reducing agent, the method comprising: polymerizing a comonomer including a functional monomer I, a polyether macromonomer, a functional monomer II, an unsaturated carboxylic acid and an unsaturated silane coupling agent I in water to form a polycarboxylic acid; wherein:
[0006] The functional monomer I is prepared by esterifying graphene oxide and diphenylhydroxyacetic acid and then grafting an unsaturated silane coupling agent II; the functional monomer II is hydroxyethyl acrylate and hydroxypropyl methacrylate.
[0007] In the method of the present invention, functional monomer I and functional monomer II are copolymerized with monomers such as unsaturated carboxylic acid and polyether macromonomer, and the synergistic effect of the monomers enables the prepared polycarboxylic acid water-reducing agent to slowly release carboxyl groups during use, thereby improving the workability of concrete and prolonging the slump retention time while maintaining a high water-reducing effect and a low air content. On the one hand, in the functional monomer I used, graphene oxide (GO) is esterified with diphenyl glycolic acid, and diphenyl is introduced on the surface of GO. Under the condition of maintaining the strength of concrete, the water-reducing effect can be improved. The unsaturated silane coupling agent is used for grafting modification, and the carboxyl group can be protected and an unsaturated double bond can be introduced, so that the modified graphene oxide can be introduced into the polycarboxylic acid molecular chain as a monomer through copolymerization, thereby improving the dispersion uniformity and stability of graphene oxide in the water reducer. The chain segment provided by the functional monomer I on the polycarboxylic acid molecular chain can ensure the slow release of the carboxyl group during long-distance transportation, and prevent the occurrence of slurry bleeding in the middle period; the functional monomer II is a combination of hydroxyethyl acrylate and hydroxypropyl methacrylate, which can improve the dispersion performance of the water reducer during concrete mixing and prevent the occurrence of reverse increase in concrete slump retention.
[0008] In some embodiments of the present invention, the functional monomer I is prepared by a method comprising the following steps: in the presence of an organic solvent and a catalyst, diphenylhydroxyacetic acid and graphene oxide are subjected to an esterification reaction under heating and reflux conditions to form modified graphene oxide; the unsaturated silane coupling agent II is pre-hydrolyzed in an aqueous solvent, and then the modified graphene oxide is added for a grafting reaction to form the functional monomer I.
[0009] In some embodiments of the present invention, relative to 100 parts by weight of the polyether macromonomer, the amount of the functional monomer I is 1 to 8 parts by weight, the amount of the functional monomer II is 1 to 10 parts by weight, the amount of the unsaturated carboxylic acid is 1 to 5 parts by weight, and the amount of the unsaturated silane coupling agent I is 0.01 to 0.5 parts by weight.
[0010] In some embodiments of the present invention, the preparation method comprises the following steps:
[0011] S1: Provide reaction solution A, reaction solution B and reaction solution C respectively
[0012] The unsaturated carboxylic acid, the unsaturated silane coupling agent I and the functional monomer I are uniformly mixed with water to obtain the reaction solution A;
[0013] Dissolving the functional monomer II in water to obtain the reaction solution B;
[0014] Dissolving the chain transfer agent and the reducing agent in water to obtain the reaction solution C;
[0015] S2: dissolving the polyether macromonomer and the oxidant in water to obtain a base solution;
[0016] At 5-45°C, the reaction solution A and the reaction solution C are added dropwise to the base solution for a time of t1 and a time of t2. 11 When the reaction liquid B is added dropwise, the addition time of the reaction liquid B is controlled to be t2, wherein;
[0017] t1 is 50 to 200 minutes, t 11 Satisfies the relationship with t1: t 11 =c×t1, c is 0.1~0.5,
[0018] t2 is 50 to 200 minutes.
[0019] In some embodiments of the present invention, the amount of water used is such that the solid content of the prepared collapse-retaining polycarboxylate water-reducing agent is 40% to 50%.
[0020] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a collapse-retaining polycarboxylate water-reducing agent prepared by the preparation method described in the first aspect of the present invention.
[0021] As described above, the collapse-preserving polycarboxylate water-reducing agent can improve the workability and collapse-preserving property of concrete. In addition, adding a small amount of the collapse-preserving polycarboxylate water-reducing agent to concrete can achieve a collapse-preserving effect of more than 3 hours, which has a relatively broad application prospect.
[0022] In a third aspect, the present invention provides use of the collapse-retaining polycarboxylate water-reducing agent described in the second aspect of the present invention in building materials.

In addition, each separately disclosed point or single value itself can be combined with any other point or single value as a lower limit or upper limit or with other lower limits or upper limits to form an undefined range.
[0026] If not otherwise specified, all embodiments and optional embodiments of the present invention may be combined with each other to form new technical solutions, and such technical solutions should be considered to be included in the disclosure of the present invention.

[0031] In the present invention, the functional monomer I is graphene oxide modified by diphenyl glycolic acid and unsaturated silane coupling agent II, specifically prepared by esterification of graphene oxide and diphenyl glycolic acid and then grafting unsaturated silane coupling agent II. During the use of the water reducer, the chain segment provided by the functional monomer I protects the release of the carboxyl group in the late stage of collapse retention, and the benzene ring can provide a better water reduction effect.

[0155] Comparative Example 4
[0156] A commercially available slump-retaining water-reducing agent (BASF FS40) was used as a comparative sample and was recorded as PC-d4.
[0157] Test Case
[0158] The test examples are used to illustrate the application performance of the polycarboxylate water reducers PC-1 to PC-5 and PC-d1 to PC-d4 of the above embodiments and comparative examples.
[0159] According to GB / T 8077-2012 "Test method for homogeneity of concrete admixtures", the polycarboxylate water reducer was tested for water reduction rate and air content, where the concrete mix ratio was 175 kg, cement (Chunchi cement P.052.5R): 360 kg, machine-made sand (mud content 5%): 790 kg, stone: 1060 kg, and the amount of water reducer (in solid terms) accounted for 2% of the cement mass.
[0160] In accordance with GB / T 50080-2016 "Standard for Test Methods for Performance of Ordinary Concrete Mixtures", polycarboxylic acid water reducer was added to the concrete to measure the initial slump, 1h, 2h, 3h slump and 3d, 7d, 28d compressive strength of the concrete. The concrete mix ratio was as follows: water: 175kg, cement (Chunchi cement P.052.5R): 360kg, machine-made sand (mud content 5%): 790kg, stone: 1060kg, and the amount of water reducer was such that the initial slump was controlled between 200 and 220mm.
[0161] The results are shown in Table 1.
[0162] Table 1
[0163]
[0164] Combined with the results shown in Table 1, it can be seen that compared with the commercially available slump-retaining water-reducing agent (Comparative Example 4) and the water-reducing agent prepared by Comparative Examples 1 to 3, Examples 1 to 5 have improved water-reducing performance, reduced air content, and have better slump-retaining effect. Comparing Example 1 with Comparative Examples 1 to 3, it can be seen that under the synergistic effect of functional monomer I and functional monomer II, the prepared water-reducing agent can enable concrete to maintain a higher compressive strength while obtaining a better water-reducing effect and longer slump-retaining property, effectively preventing the occurrence of mid-term slump reverse enlargement.
