Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of new building materials, and particularly relates to a lime-sand polymer building material capable of inhibiting efflorescence and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Geopolymers are three-dimensional mesh gel materials generated by the reaction of active silica-alumina materials (such as fly ash and slag) with alkaline activators. Their production energy consumption is only one-third of that of traditional cement, and CO2 emissions are reduced by more than 60%, making them a green building material (Reference: Davidovits J. Geopolymer chemistry and applications. 5th ed. France: Geopolymer Institute; 2020). However, geopolymers will continuously release Na during the hardening process. + , K + Alkali metal ions such as Na2CO3 and K2CO3 migrate to the surface and react with CO2 in the air to form crystalline salts such as Na2CO3 and K2CO3 (i.e., efflorescence). Studies have shown that Na + When the concentration is >0.5 mol / L, the risk of efflorescence at 28 days is as high as 83% (data source: Zhang et al., Cement and Concrete Research, 2021, 139: 106284). Efflorescence not only causes surface color differences, chalking, and other cosmetic defects, but also leads to the following serious problems:

[0003] (1) Structural degradation: The crystallization process generates expansion stress, which causes microcracks inside the material;

[0004] (2) Decreased durability: After carbonate crystals block the surface pores, they hinder the evaporation of internal water and accelerate the corrosion of steel bars;

[0005] (3) Functional failure: When applying a protective coating, the alkali-based products will cause the bonding strength between the coating and the substrate to decrease, and the coating will easily peel off.

[0006] The main technical means and limitations of the current industry in dealing with efflorescence are as follows:

[0007] (1) Surface sealing method: Use silicone coating or fluorocarbon resin for surface sealing. However, actual engineering testing found that the coating is prone to peeling under temperature changes, the anti-permeability retention rate after one year is less than 30%, and it cannot inhibit deep alkali efflorescence caused by internal ion migration.

[0008] (2) Mineral admixture method: Add 10%-20% silica fume or metakaolin to consume free alkali. However, when the admixture exceeds 15%, the initial fluidity of the slurry decreases significantly, restricting the construction performance.

[0009] (3) Chemical solidification method: by introducing sulfates such as CaSO4 to generate calcium sulfate to fix Na + But the introduction of SO4 2- It will cause delayed ettringite expansion and accelerate the Mg 2+ Erosion and mass loss rate increase significantly.

[0010] None of the aforementioned methods can fundamentally address the migration and accumulation of alkali metal ions, and the common contradiction of "inhibiting efflorescence while deteriorating performance" exists. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an endogenous ion regulation system that can achieve long-term inhibition of efflorescence without affecting the mechanical properties of the material. Summary of the Invention

[0020] The above-mentioned method for preparing geopolymer from lime sand polymer building material with efflorescence inhibition comprises the following steps:

[0021] S1: calcining fly ash at 600°C to 650°C for 2h to 2.5h to remove unburned carbon, cooling, and grinding; grinding slag; and then mixing the fly ash and slag to obtain a composite matrix material;

[0022] S2: After uniformly mixing the composite matrix material, modified layered double metal hydroxide, slow-release organic acid microcapsules and efflorescence inhibitor, the composite alkali activator is added three times under continuous stirring at 60 rpm to 80 rpm. After the addition, the mixture is stirred at 300 rpm to 400 rpm for 5 min to 8 min, and water is added to control the slurry fluidity to 180 mm to 220 mm to obtain a mixture;

[0023] S3: The mixture is injected into the mold, heated to 38℃~42℃ for pre-curing for 4h~6h, and then transferred to a steam curing box at 58℃~62℃ and RH≥95% for treatment for 24h~28h; finally, cured at 20℃~25℃ and RH55%~65% for 28 days with daily spraying of curing agent to obtain the geopolymer.

[0025] In S2 of the above preparation method, the composite alkali activator is added at intervals of 2 to 3 minutes each time, and the addition amounts are 40%, 30% and 30% of the mass of the composite alkali activator, respectively.

[0026] In S3 of the above preparation method, the curing agent is sprayed at 150 mL / m every 12 hours. 2 ~200mL / m 2 The curing agent is compounded by the following ingredients: 0.1wt% to 0.3wt% of sustained-release organic acid microcapsules, 0.1wt% to 0.3wt% of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, 0.05wt% to 0.08wt% of sodium benzoate, and the balance is water.

[0027] The geopolymer prepared by the above method is used in prefabricated components of assembled buildings, marine concrete protective layers and floor engineering.

[0028] The present invention provides a lime-sand polymer building material capable of inhibiting efflorescence and a preparation method thereof, and has the following beneficial effects:

[0029] 1. Fly ash calcination removes unburned carbon, effectively reduces the adsorption of alkali activators, ensures the effective concentration of alkali activators, promotes the polymerization reaction of silicon-aluminum materials, and reduces alkali efflorescence; prevents the formation of weak structures inside the material, improves the density of the material, reduces the porosity, and thus improves the compressive strength and corrosion resistance of the material.

[0030] Second, slow-release organic acid microcapsules are prepared, which can slowly release citric acid and tartaric acid, reduce the concentration of alkali metal ions in the pore fluid, and inhibit the migration of alkali metal ions to the surface to react with CO2 in the air, thereby reducing the phenomenon of efflorescence. They are also added to the curing agent to continuously play the role of inhibiting efflorescence. Compared with citric acid and tartaric acid, the advantage of slow-release organic acid microcapsules is that they can slowly release organic acids. Ordinary citric acid and tartaric acid will react rapidly after addition, consuming a large amount of alkali metal ions in a short period of time, but they cannot provide long-term continuous inhibition. Slow-release organic acid microcapsules can continuously and stably release citric acid and tartaric acid for a long time, so that the material can maintain a low alkali metal ion concentration at different stages, thereby achieving long-term inhibition of efflorescence and avoiding the adverse effects of the rapid reaction of organic acid and alkali on material properties.

[0031] 3. Modified layered double hydroxides can adsorb alkali metal ions and fix Na + etc., reducing ion migration. At the same time, its special structure and modified properties help to improve the density of the material, thereby enhancing the material's impermeability and corrosion resistance. Compared with MgAl-LDH, the modified layered double hydroxide has better adsorption performance and ion exchange capacity after calcination, silane coupling agent treatment and loading of nano-SiO2, and can more effectively fix alkali metal ions. At the same time, the modified layered double hydroxide has better compatibility with the matrix material, forming a more stable structure inside the material, improving the material's density and impermeability, thereby enhancing the material's corrosion resistance and durability, overcoming the shortcomings of MgAl-LDH in these aspects when used alone.

[0032] Fourth, calcining the MgAl-LDH at 350°C to 400°C under nitrogen protection converts it into a Mg(Al)O mixed metal oxide with a high specific surface area, high surface activity, and the crucial "memory effect." When this calcined product is subsequently immersed in a solution containing a silane coupling agent and a SiO2 sol, its active surface and ability to reconstruct the LDH structure (memory effect) provide a crucial reaction platform and binding sites for effective chemical bonding of the silane coupling agent and successful loading of the nano-SiO2 particles. This specific temperature range strikes an optimal balance between ensuring thorough activation while avoiding deactivation and crystallization (spinelization).

[0033] Fifth, the efflorescence inhibition adjuvant is a mixture of phytic acid-modified lignin microcapsules and thermoresponsive carbonates in a specific ratio. The phytic acid-modified lignin microcapsules absorb some alkali metal ions through their own structure, while the thermoresponsive carbonates change at a certain temperature, helping to regulate the microenvironment within the material. The two work synergistically to further inhibit efflorescence without adversely affecting the material's performance.

[0034] Phytic acid-modified lignin microcapsules have better adsorption performance and stability than direct use of sodium lignin sulfonate. After sodium lignin sulfonate is modified with phytic acid and made into microcapsules, its surface properties and internal structure change, increasing the adsorption selectivity and adsorption capacity of alkali metal ions. Moreover, the microcapsule structure protects the internal phytic acid-modified lignin, making it less susceptible to external environmental influences within the material, allowing it to more sustainably adsorb alkali metal ions and thus more effectively suppress efflorescence. In contrast, when sodium lignin sulfonate is used alone, its adsorption effect and stability are inferior to those of phytic acid-modified lignin microcapsules.

[0035] Compared to calcium carbonate micropowder, thermally responsive carbonate is obtained by coating calcium carbonate micropowder with stearic acid. The stearic acid coating makes calcium carbonate thermally responsive. Under different temperature conditions, the state of stearic acid will change, thereby affecting the properties and mode of action of calcium carbonate. Inside the material, the thermally responsive carbonate adjusts the internal microenvironment of the material to a certain extent according to the changes in ambient temperature, causing the activity of the calcium carbonate micropowder to change, helping to inhibit the migration and crystallization of alkali metal ions and reduce efflorescence. Ordinary calcium carbonate micropowder does not have this thermal response characteristic, its function is relatively simple, and it cannot self-regulate according to the ambient temperature to better adapt to the complex conditions inside the material.

[0036] 6. The present invention designs a curing plan based on the characteristics of each component, which can better promote the curing progress and strength and improve various performances. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0109]

[0110] In Examples 1 to 3, the sustained-release organic acid microcapsules continuously release organic acid to neutralize migrating alkali metal ions and inhibit efflorescence. The modified layered double hydroxide, with its layered structure and high specific surface area, adsorbs more alkali metal ions. The phytic acid-modified lignin microcapsules in the efflorescence inhibition adjuvant chelate ions, while the thermally responsive carbonates regulate the pore environment. These three factors work synergistically to significantly improve efflorescence inhibition and compressive strength, while reducing porosity and sulfate swelling. This offers significant advantages without compromising material flowability, maintaining excellent pumpability.

[0111] Comparative Example 1 directly replaces the sustained-release organic acid microcapsules with citric acid and tartaric acid. The acid is rapidly released early in the material, neutralizing a large amount of alkali metal ions in the short term. However, this acid is unable to maintain its effect over the long term after the material hardens. Excessive acid in the early stages also interferes with the hydration reaction of the geopolymer, resulting in insufficient hydration product formation, a loose internal structure, increased porosity, and reduced compressive strength. Structural defects facilitate the migration of alkali metal ions to the surface, causing efflorescence and weakening sulfate resistance.

[0112] In Comparative Example 2, sodium alginate was not added to the preparation of sustained-release organic acid microcapsules. Sodium alginate acts as a gelling agent and stabilizer, and its absence reduces the structural stability of the microcapsules. This leads to rupture and uneven release during storage and release of the organic acid within the material. This prevents the organic acid from achieving the desired sustained-release effect, weakening its neutralization of alkali metal ions and thus reducing the efflorescence inhibition rate. This unstable microcapsule performance also indirectly affects the uniformity of the material's hydration reaction, resulting in increased porosity and reduced compressive strength and other properties.

[0113] In Comparative Example 3, excessive addition of sustained-release organic acid microcapsules creates an overly acidic environment within the material, inhibiting the aluminosilicate polymerization reaction, a key step in the geopolymer hydration reaction. The large amount of organic acid takes up space, hindering the normal growth and accumulation of hydration products, resulting in a loose and porous structure that significantly reduces compressive strength and increases porosity. While increased organic acid can neutralize more alkali metal ions to a certain extent, the excessive addition degrades the material structure, impairing corrosion resistance.

[0114] The unmodified MgAl-LDH in Comparative Example 4 exhibited poor dispersibility within the material and poor compatibility with the matrix, failing to fully utilize the ion exchange and adsorption properties of its layered structure. Compared to modified layered double hydroxides, the unmodified MgAl-LDH struggled to uniformly and effectively adsorb and immobilize alkali metal ions, leading to increased migration of alkali metal ions within the material and exacerbated efflorescence, which impacted porosity. Furthermore, it failed to provide uniform and good structural support and optimization for the material, resulting in decreased mechanical properties, impermeability, and, consequently, sulfate corrosion resistance.

[0115] In Comparative Example 5, the MgAl-LDH was not calcined, resulting in a dense crystal structure, encapsulated active sites, a small specific surface area, and a failure to expel internal moisture adsorbed during storage, resulting in weak ion exchange capacity. The calcination process dehydrates and dehydroxylates the MgAl-LDH, forming a highly reactive layered structure that facilitates subsequent modification and ion adsorption. Uncalcined MgAl-LDH is less likely to react fully with alkali metal ions within the material, reducing its effectiveness in inhibiting efflorescence. Furthermore, it does not adequately improve the material's internal structure, resulting in increased porosity and reduced compressive strength and corrosion resistance.

[0116] Comparative Example 6: Nano-SiO2 loading significantly improves the dispersibility of the layered double hydroxide, strengthens its adhesion to the matrix, and enhances its ion adsorption efficiency. Without nano-SiO2 loading, the modified layered double hydroxide tends to agglomerate within the material, preventing uniform dispersion and functioning. This weakens its ability to fix alkali metal ions, resulting in a decrease in efflorescence inhibition and overall material performance. Agglomerates also form defects within the material, affecting its density and mechanical properties.

[0117] In Comparative Example 7, sodium lignin sulfonate itself exhibits far inferior alkali metal ion chelation and sustained-release properties to phytic acid-modified lignin microcapsules. Phytic acid modification introduces a large number of chelating groups, which form stable complexes with alkali metal ions. Microencapsulation enables slow release and sustained inhibition of efflorescence. Direct use of sodium lignin sulfonate fails to effectively inhibit alkali metal ion migration, resulting in a reduced efflorescence inhibition rate. Furthermore, its limited effect on optimizing the material structure reduces the material's compressive strength, impermeability, and corrosion resistance.

[0118] In Comparative Example 8, the phytic acid-modified lignin, if not microencapsulated, would be rapidly released from the material. This would result in excessive alkali metal ion consumption in the early stages, affecting the proper hydration reaction of the geopolymer. Later, due to premature depletion, alkali metal ions could not be continuously suppressed. Microencapsulation, however, controlled the release of the phytic acid-modified lignin at the appropriate stage, ensuring a balance between hydration and alkali inhibition. Failure to microencapsulate the material resulted in unstable material performance and reduced performance indicators.

[0119] Comparative Example 9: The thermoresponsive carbonate, coated with stearic acid, imparts unique temperature-responsive properties. This allows it to adjust the pore environment and synergistically inhibit efflorescence when the humidity and temperature within the material change. Conventional calcium carbonate micropowder, acting solely as an inert filler, lacks the ability to inhibit alkali metal ion migration or regulate the pore environment, and thus fails to synergize with other additives. This results in a material with lower efflorescence inhibition and overall performance than the examples.

[0120] In Comparative Example 10, the fly ash was not calcined. The unburned carbon in the fly ash adsorbed the alkali activator, reducing its effective concentration and slowing down and hindering the polymerization reaction of the silicon-alumina material. The unburned carbon also formed a weak structure within the material, affecting its density. This reduced its compressive strength, increased its porosity, facilitated the migration of alkali metal ions, led to severe efflorescence, and reduced its corrosion resistance.

[0121] In Comparative Example 11, too little modified layered double hydroxide is added, which cannot provide sufficient ion adsorption sites and has insufficient fixation capacity for alkali metal ions, resulting in a decrease in the efflorescence inhibition rate; excessive efflorescence inhibition adjuvant will form excess fillers inside the material, interfering with the normal hydration reaction and structure formation of the material, making the internal structure of the material uneven and reducing the compressive strength; excessive adjuvant also affects the uniformity of pore size and reduces the corrosion resistance.
