Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of waste biomass recycling, and more specifically, relates to a method for preparing concrete mixed with a biomass air entraining agent. Background Art
[0002] Foamed concrete is a lightweight concrete and its components containing a large number of closed pores formed by mechanically making foaming agent aqueous solution into foam, then mixing the foam into various cement mixtures, evenly stirring, pouring and curing. The material has excellent properties such as light weight and high strength, energy saving and waste recycling, and thermal insulation. The quality of foamed concrete is inseparable from the performance of the foaming agent. A good foaming agent is the core element for preparing high-quality foamed concrete.
[0003] Concrete foaming agents are mostly surfactants. According to the international classification of surfactants, foaming agents can be classified into anionic foaming agents, cationic foaming agents, amphoteric foaming agents and non-ionic foaming agents. Tea saponin, also known as camellia saponin, is a mixture of saponins found in tea seeds and tea leaves. At the same time, tea saponin is also a small molecule substance with excellent performance and a green natural surfactant.
[0004] However, when tea saponin, a natural surfactant, is directly added to the concrete system, it still faces the disadvantage of mediocre bubble effect, especially insufficient foam stability, which leads to the disadvantage that the air entraining effect of concrete is not as good as expected. Summary of the invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that the foaming effect of conventional foamed concrete made of tea saponin as a biomass air entraining agent is generally poor, especially the stability of the foam is insufficient. Based on the above problem, the present invention provides a method for preparing concrete mixed with a biomass air entraining agent.
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing biomass air entraining agent mixed concrete.
[0007] The above-mentioned purpose of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions: A method for preparing biomass air-entraining agent mixed concrete, the specific preparation steps comprising: Raw materials preparation: By weight, take 4-6 parts of water-absorbing resin, 20-30 parts of tea saponin, 1.2-1.8 parts of lignin, 300-400 parts of ordinary Portland cement, 80-100 parts of fly ash, 10-20 parts of silica fume, 300-350 parts of aggregate, 0.8-1.5 parts of water reducing agent, 0.4-0.6 parts of foam stabilizer, and 0.1-0.2 parts of retarder; Mixing of raw materials: Mix tea saponin, water-absorbing resin, lignin and water and foam them to form a foam liquid with a foam density of 55-65kg / m3; wherein the amount of water used is 40-50 times the mass of the tea saponin; After dry mixing the remaining raw materials and stirring them evenly, add water according to a water-binder ratio of 0.5-0.6 to form a prefabricated slurry; The foam liquid is injected into the prefabricated slurry, stirred evenly at a low speed, poured, and then covered and cured to complete the preparation of the biomass air-entraining agent mixed concrete.
[0008] Beneficial effects of the above technical solution: The inventors found in the research process that for the foam concrete system, since the hydration of cement in the concrete during the preparation process generates hydration heat, as the temperature of the concrete rises, the foam film produced by foaming may become thinner or even rupture, thereby affecting the stability of the bubbles; on the other hand, as the temperature rises, the bubbles will merge quickly, causing the size of the bubbles to become larger and the distribution to become uneven, ultimately affecting the foaming effect; in particular, for biomass-based air-entraining agents, that is, the air-entraining agents such as tea saponin added in the present application, they may even hydrolyze and fail during the process of continuously increasing temperature, reducing the number of bubbles and affecting the foaming effect; Based on the above findings, the above technical solution of the present application adopts compounding by adding water-absorbing resin and lignin to solve the technical problem; specifically, the water-absorbing resin can retain a large amount of water after absorbing water during the manufacturing process of concrete, and quickly forms a gel-like substance, thereby enhancing the strength and elasticity of the bubble film, thereby improving the stability of the foam liquid during the manufacturing process; In addition, during the mixing and pouring process with the prefabricated slurry, the hydration of cement generates hydration heat, and the gel-like substance formed by the water-absorbing resin has a good temperature buffering capacity, which can alleviate the influence of the hydration heat on the foaming of tea saponin to a certain extent; in addition, during the mixing process of the foam liquid and the prefabricated slurry, the foaming process is still accompanied by low-speed stirring, and the presence of the gel-like substance formed by the water-absorbing resin can help the foam to be more uniform; Furthermore, the inventors found that during the pouring and film-covering curing process, the alkaline environment in the concrete still has a continuous adverse effect on the stable foam system formed by tea saponin and water-absorbing resin. The alkaline environment will cause the foam stability to decrease, resulting in the foam rupture in the later stage. By introducing lignin, it can undergo oxidative self-polymerization under the action of dissolved oxygen in the water of the concrete system in an alkaline environment and the heat generated by cement hydration during the later pouring and film-covering curing process, thereby providing strength for the foam liquid film in the later stage, that is, during the pouring and curing process, and reducing its rupture; Therefore, the lignin and the water-absorbing resin are combined in the early and late stages of the concrete manufacturing process to ensure the stability of the foaming process and maintain the foaming effect.
[0009] Furthermore, the water-absorbing resin is selected from any one of sodium polyacrylate, polyacrylamide and polyvinyl alcohol.
[0010] The above technical solution further adopts an organic polymer water-absorbing resin, the polar functional groups in the molecular structure of which can form hydrogen bond interaction forces with tea saponin, so that the gel-like substance formed by the organic polymer water-absorbing resin in the liquid film formed by the foaming of tea saponin can play a good foam supporting effect.
[0011] Furthermore, the aggregate comprises the following raw material components in parts by weight: 280-300 parts of fine sand, 60-80 parts of expanded perlite, 4-8 parts of expanded graphite; Wherein, the D50 of the expanded graphite is 100-120 μm.
[0012] Furthermore, the expanded graphite is spherical expanded graphite, and the preparation steps of the spherical expanded graphite include: By weight, 80-100 parts of expanded graphite, 400-420 parts of water, and 10-12 parts of sodium polystyrene sulfonate are mixed, and then ultrasonically dispersed for 30-60 minutes at a frequency of 180-220 kHz, and then the dispersion is sprayed and granulated to obtain spherical expanded graphite.
[0013] In the above technical solution, expanded graphite is used as part of the aggregate. Its main function is that the expanded graphite is light in weight, and it is also easy to be compatible with the foam formed by the biomass air-entraining agent. Its properties are stable during the hydration process of concrete. Moreover, it has excellent thermal conductivity. During the hydration heat generation process in the system, it is beneficial to conduct the internal heat to the outside, avoiding excessive concentration of heat inside and affecting the stability of the internal foam.
[0014] Furthermore, the water reducer is selected from any one of lignin sulfonate water reducer, polycarboxylic acid water reducer, aliphatic water reducer, aminosulfonate water reducer, melamine water reducer and naphthalene water reducer.
[0015] Furthermore, the foam stabilizer is selected from any one of sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium α-olefin sulfonate, sodium fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether sulfate, dodecyl dimethyl amine oxide, and alkyl alcohol amide.
[0016] Furthermore, the retarder is selected from any one of sodium pyrophosphate, sodium tripolyphosphate, borax and sodium fluorosilicate.
[0017] Furthermore, the low-speed stirring comprises: The stirring speed was 65-85 r / min, and the stirring was continued for 15-25 min.
[0018] Furthermore, the low-speed stirring evenly also includes: At a stirring speed of 65-85r / min, continue stirring and mixing for 15-25 minutes, and cool the concrete slurry to maintain the temperature below 25°C during low-speed stirring; Wherein, the cooling is performed by water cooling.
[0019] The above technical solution further controls the temperature during the low-speed stirring process so that the whole system is carried out at a relatively low temperature, thereby making the early foam dense and stable and avoiding premature foam bursting. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
