Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a preparation method of a high crack-resistant concrete waterproofing and densifying agent, belonging to the field of concrete admixtures. Background Art

[0002] Due to the relatively extensive production and construction in the concrete industry, combined with the industry segmentation and a certain degree of absence in design, construction, and supervision, there are still many problems in the concrete industry, such as poor raw material quality, low strength grade, many quality common problems, and premature deterioration of many buildings and structures. For example, in recent years, phenomena such as basement leakage, subway leakage and corrosion, underground pipe gallery leakage, premature corrosion and damage of sewage treatment ponds, and premature deterioration of coastal reinforced concrete have emerged in an endless stream. Therefore, there is an urgent need for admixtures that can improve the durability of concrete to solve these problems.

[0003] Siliceous densifying agents are a type of concrete admixture mainly composed of siliceous materials, which are a high-performance green new type of admixture designed to enhance the density, impermeability, and durability of concrete through chemical reactions and physical filling effects. Its core feature is to utilize the interaction between the activity of siliceous materials and the hydration products of cement to form a denser microstructure, effectively blocking the penetration of harmful substances such as chloride ions and sulfates, and significantly extending the service life of concrete in corrosive environments.

[0004] The main components of siliceous densifying agents are ultra-fine silica fume and nano-silica dioxide. Among them, ultra-fine silica fume can fill the capillary pores and micro-cracks of concrete, reducing the porosity of concrete through physical filling. Nano-silica dioxide undergoes a pozzolanic reaction with the hydration products of cement to generate more C-S-H gels, forming a dense structure. The cost of silica fume is relatively high, about 3000 yuan per ton, and the price of nano-silica dioxide is even higher, 10,000 - 20,000 yuan per ton, which leads to a relatively high cost of siliceous densifying agents containing ultra-fine silica fume and nano-silica dioxide.

[0005] In order to reduce the cost, the particle size of silica fume and nano-silica dioxide can be increased. However, the increase in particle size will cause a huge change in the specific surface area of the particles. For every 10-fold increase in particle size, the specific surface area decreases by about 90%. Moreover, larger particle sizes will form a "weak interface zone" of coarse particles in the cement paste, becoming stress concentration points and leading to a reduction in flexural strength.

[0006] In order to ensure the performance of concrete is not affected while reducing costs, larger particles can be compounded with nanoscale particles, and the pore structure can be optimized using the "grading filling effect" to ensure the performance of concrete. At the same time, alkaline activators (such as NaOH and water glass) can be added to accelerate the pozzolanic reaction of the larger particles, which can also make up for the performance degradation caused by using large-sized siliceous materials, such as crack resistance and compressive strength. However, the impermeability of the concrete will deteriorate significantly, especially in a saline environment, and the service life of the impermeability will be significantly reduced. Summary of the Invention

[0040] Test Example 5 Influence of the densifier on the waterproof performance of concrete The densifiers prepared in Examples 1 - 2 and Comparative Examples 1 - 2 are added according to the proportion of 3.5 wt% of the gel material; Testing is carried out with the C40 commercial concrete mix ratio as the inspection standard, and the mix ratio is as follows: Cement 250 kg / m 3 and mineral powder 75 kg / m 3 and fly ash 70 kg / m3 , sand: 810 kg / m 3 , gravel: 1070 kg / m 3 , water: 160 kg / m 3 ; The cement is P·O 42.5R Portland cement; The specific surface area of the mineral powder is 370 m 2 / kg; The sand is medium sand in Zone II with a fineness modulus of 2.5; The gravel has a continuous grading of 5 - 25 mm; According to the method in GB / T50082 - 2024, the water penetration height of the concrete was detected, and the test pressures were 1.2 MPa, 1.5 MPa, and 2.0 MPa respectively. The results are shown in Table 5.

[0042] In Examples 1 - 3, the larger - sized silica fume was specially treated and then graded with ultrafine silica fume, and the larger - sized silicon dioxide was specially treated and then graded with nano - silicon dioxide to finally prepare the densifier. The waterproof performance of the final concrete is good and the water penetration height is low; In Comparative Example 1, the step of preparing the silica fume composite was omitted, and in the grading step, untreated micron - sized silica fume was graded with ultrafine silica fume to prepare the densifier, which led to a certain increase in the water penetration height of the concrete; In Comparative Example 2, the step of preparing the silicon carbide whisker - modified silicon dioxide was omitted, and in the grading step, micron - sized silicon dioxide was graded with nano - silicon dioxide to prepare the densifier, which led to a serious increase in the water penetration height of the concrete, especially in a high - water - pressure environment, where the increase was particularly severe.
