Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of solid waste steel slag recycling, and in particular to a steel slag activity activator and a steel slag gelling material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Steel slag is a solid waste generated during the steelmaking process. It not only occupies land resources but also causes water and soil pollution, posing a serious threat to ecological and environmental safety. Steel slag has the characteristics of high bulk density, high strength, high hardness, and good wear resistance. Using it as a road fill material not only improves the bearing capacity of the roadbed (embankment), but also enables large-scale utilization of steel slag, further implementing the national "dual carbon" strategy for the comprehensive utilization of bulk solid waste. This will help alleviate the large demand for stone materials in highway construction and help solve the practical problems of steel slag storage and environmental protection for enterprises.

[0003] However, this extensive slag utilization method also results in a certain degree of resource waste. This is because the main mineral components of steel slag include tricalcium silicate (C3S), dicalcium silicate (C2S), calcium forsterite ([Ca,Mg]2SiO4), RO phase minerals (such as FeO), and small amounts of free calcium oxide (f-CaO) and free magnesium oxide (f-MgO). If it is redeveloped as a substitute for cement clinker, it will not only significantly increase the added value of steel slag recycling, but also reduce energy consumption, resource waste, and greenhouse gas emissions generated during cement production.

[0004] While the mineral composition of steel slag and cement clinker is similar, the former's primary minerals, C3S and C2S, are formed at the high temperatures of steelmaking. Their crystal lattices are intact, their grains are large, and after rapid cooling, they form a vitreous structure, resulting in extremely low hydration activity. Therefore, achieving high-quality and efficient improvements in the cementitious properties of steel slag through the synergistic activation of multiple components remains a critical technical bottleneck in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the shortcomings of the prior art and to propose a steel slag activity activator and a steel slag gelling material and a preparation method thereof.

[0006] A steel slag activation activator comprises the following raw materials by mass percentage: 35-45% rice husk ash or activated rice husk ash, 20-30% phosphogypsum, 15-25.5% water glass, 9-12% sodium hydroxide, and the balance being an alcoholamine activator.

[0007] Preferably, phosphogypsum is an industrial by-product with a pH of 3.2-3.6 and a relative density of 2.1-2.5 g / cm 3 .

[0008] Preferably, the water glass is an industrial-grade water glass with a modulus of 3.2, a Na2O content of 7.5%, and a SiO2 content of 28.0%.

[0009] Preferably, the alkanolamine activator is triethanolamine, N-methyldiethanolamine, or / and triisopropanolamine.

[0010] Preferably, the rice husk ash is prepared by the following steps: immersing the rice husks in an acidic solution for 1-2 h; rinsing with clear water until neutral, drying at a low temperature of 50-60 °C for 22-26 h, calcining at 650 ± 10 °C for 2-4 h, and grinding and sieving after cooling.

[0011] The main component of the rice husk ash is silica. Through acid leaching pretreatment, metal elements such as K, Na, and Ca in the rice husks can be dissolved out, increasing the silica content in the rice husk ash to over 90%; after high-temperature calcination at 650 ± 10 °C (if the temperature is too high, it will cause the crystal form transformation of silica and reduce the activity), the silica in the rice husk ash is in an amorphous state and has a porous structure, with high activity; after grinding, its reaction activity is further increased, and it is prone to volcanic ash reaction to form gel products in an alkaline environment.

[0012] More preferably, the acidic solution is an acetic acid aqueous solution or hydrochloric acid, the volume fraction of the acidic solution is 1.0-5.0%, and the mass ratio of the rice husks to the acidic solution is 1:48-52.

[0013] Preferably, the activated rice husk ash is prepared by the following steps: adding dendritic amino-terminated polyamide-amine, silane coupling agent, and dodecyl polyoxyethylene ether to water and stirring for 10-30 min, adding the rice husk ash thereto and performing ultrasonic treatment for 1-2 h, heating to 120-140 °C for heat treatment for 5-15 min, cooling to room temperature, filtering, washing, and drying under vacuum.

[0014] In the present invention, amino-terminated polyamide-amine is grafted onto the rice husk ash, so that in an alkaline condition, the amino groups at the ends of the obtained activated rice husk ash will be deprotonated to form amino anions, which can not only combine with positively charged calcium ions, cooperate with amorphous silica to accelerate the formation of a gel network, and bind to the system with its dendritic structure, significantly enhancing the compressive strength of the product.

[0015] More preferably, the mass ratio of the dendritic amino-terminated polyamide-amine, silane coupling agent, dodecyl polyoxyethylene ether, and rice husk ash is 1-2:1-2:1-2:10-20.

[0016] The above steel slag activity activator is used in the preparation of steel slag cementitious materials.

[0017] A steel slag cementitious material, the raw materials of which include: the above steel slag activity activator and steel slag powder, and the mass ratio of the steel slag activity activator to the steel slag powder is 8-16:100.

[0018] Preferably, the particle size of the steel slag fine powder is ≤ 0.5 mm, and the specific surface area is ≥ 400 m 2 / kg.

[0019] The preparation method of the above-mentioned steel slag cementitious material comprises the following steps: premixing water glass and sodium hydroxide to obtain a premixed material; dehydrating phosphogypsum at 105 - 170 °C for 4 - 5 h, and then grinding it to D 50 < 50 μm; then adding rice husk ash or activated rice husk ash and steel slag fine powder for dry mixing, and then adding the premixed material and an alcohol amine activator for stirring.

[0020] After the phosphogypsum is dehydrated, it is converted into β-type hemihydrate gypsum, and after grinding, β-type hemihydrate gypsum powder with a specific surface area of ≥ 250 m 2 / g can be obtained. In the present invention, phosphogypsum is used as an activator raw material, which is converted into hemihydrate gypsum by heating, with an increased specific surface area. When it meets water, it rapidly hydrates to regenerate dihydrate gypsum and releases heat, and the ion dissolution rate is accelerated, resulting in the temperature rise of the steel slag activation system, further promoting the formation of C-S-H gel and ettringite (AFt); SO4 2- The rapid release enables the uniform nucleation of AFt in the slurry, forming an intertwined needle-like structure, closely coexisting with the C-S-H gel, significantly reducing the porosity of the material, and improving the mechanical properties of the activated steel slag system.

[0021] The present invention innovatively proposes a "solid waste-based composite activation - multiphase synergistic enhancement" technical route. Through the complexation of amorphous SiO2 in rice husk ash, SO4 in phosphogypsum 2- and the alcohol amine activator, the directional dissolution of active components in the steel slag and the orderly growth of cementitious products are realized. The key technological breakthroughs include:

[0022] (1) Pretreatment of rice husk ash: The combined technology of acid leaching - calcination increases the content of amorphous SiO2 to more than 90%, and rapidly generates C-S-H gel with Ca 2+ in an alkaline environment; if the rice husk ash is further activated, polyamidoamine with terminal amino groups is grafted onto the rice husk ash, and its terminal amino groups will be deprotonated to form amino anions under alkaline conditions. It can not only combine with positively charged calcium ions, synergistically act with amorphous silica to accelerate the formation of the gel network, and combine with its dendritic structure in the system, significantly enhancing the compressive strength of the product;

[0023] (2) Activation of phosphogypsum: Gradient dehydration generates highly active β-type hemihydrate gypsum, synchronously providing SO4 2- and Ca 2+ , promoting the intertwined coexistence of AFt and C-S-H;

[0024] (3) Synergistic mechanism of alkanolamine activators: Chelate metal ions through -OH / -NH2 groups, reduce the ion concentration difference in the solution, continuously promote mineral dissolution, and accelerate the formation of the gel network as the nucleation sites of C-S-H.

[0025] Preferably, the temperature of the room temperature and high humidity environment is 20°C ± 2°C, and the humidity ≥ 95%.

[0026] Beneficial effects:

[0027] The present invention first proposes a ternary solid waste synergistic excitation steel slag system of rice husk ash - gypsum - water glass, and solves the problem of slow early hydration of steel slag by compounding alkanolamine activators with water glass and sodium hydroxide, realizing the high - value utilization of steel slag replacing 30 - 50% of cement, meeting the relevant requirements of "Steel Slag Powder for Cement and Concrete" (GB / T 20491 - 2006).

[0028] The hydroxyl group (-OH) and amino group (-NH or -NH2) of the alkanolamine activator and the amino group on the surface of the activated rice husk ash powder can form stable complexes with metal ions such as Ca 2+ 、Al 3+ and Fe 3+ dissolved from the steel slag, reducing the concentration of free ions in the solution and promoting the continuous dissolution of mineral phases (such as γ-C2S, etc.); at the same time, the complex adheres to the surface of the steel slag particles, weakening the Si-O-Si and Al-O-Al covalent bonds and promoting the release of active silicoaluminates. At the same time, part of the alkanolamine activator molecules hydrolyze in the solution to generate OH - , which can increase the pH value of the micro - region and accelerate the depolymerization of the vitreous network in the steel slag.
