Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of dust suppressant preparation, in particular to a special dust suppressant for tunnel blasting conditions and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The dust generated during tunnel construction blasting is an important source of dust generation during the construction process. During the tunnel construction process, due to the need for blasting, a large amount of dust will be generated in a short period of time, which will affect the construction efficiency. According to the occupational health regulations of the "Technical Specifications for Highway Tunnel Construction" (JTG / T 3660-2020), the dust concentration on the tunnel working face should not exceed 2 mg / m 3 Therefore, if dust cannot be effectively suppressed, the presence of large amounts of dust will be an important factor endangering the occupational health of construction workers. Therefore, it is of great significance to reduce dust efficiently and quickly. This can not only protect the health of workers, but also speed up the construction process and improve construction efficiency.

[0003] To address the problems of dust being difficult to settle in a short period of time, polluting the environment, and affecting construction operations, the traditional method is to spray large amounts of water and some chemical dust suppressants. These methods have solved the problem of flying dust to a certain extent, but there are still some shortcomings. For example, the use of water spraying is inconvenient to operate during tunnel construction, a large amount of water resources is wasted, and the effective dust suppression time is short. Some dust suppressants focus on forming a shell layer to prevent materials from piling up dust. The existing dust suppressants on the market include wetting type, condensing type, bonding type, composite type and other dust suppressants. For example, wetting type dust suppressants mainly suppress dust by increasing the humidity of the dust surface, but once the water evaporates, the dust will dissipate into the air again; the bonding type focuses on forming a shell to prevent the material from piling up dust; the ordinary dust suppressants on the market have relatively single dust suppression functions and are basically suitable for open-air occasions. They fail to take into account the characteristics of blasting and environmental closure in highway and railway tunnel construction, and must not be corrosive, eco-toxic, or have residues that are difficult to clean up. This limits the application scope of ordinary dust suppressants to occasions with low requirements, such as roads, material transport vehicles, material yards, etc., and cannot be widely used in tunnel construction scenarios of highway and railway construction.

[0004] Common dust suppressants typically contain polyacrylamide, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate. The chemical surfactant sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, currently used extensively in mines, is toxic and corrosive, potentially harmful to humans. Commercially available polymers, such as sodium polyacrylate, retain water but are expensive. Inorganic salts, such as calcium chloride, can easily seep into water bodies with rainwater, increasing groundwater chloride concentrations and threatening agricultural irrigation.

[0005] Dust suppressants used during tunnel blasting have stringent viscosity requirements. High viscosity makes spraying difficult, resulting in heavy droplets that struggle to capture fine dust particles and risk clogging the spraying equipment. Low viscosity results in poor dust suppression, making it difficult to capture and settle dust generated during blasting. Therefore, the optimal viscosity range for the prepared dust suppressant solution is 20mPa·s to 40Pa·s.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a special dust suppressant for tunnel blasting conditions and a preparation method thereof to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0016] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, the following briefly introduces the drawings required for use in the embodiments. Obviously, for ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without paying any creative labor.

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments of the present invention and corresponding drawings.

[0019] See also Figure 1The present invention uses deionized water as a solvent, sodium carboxymethyl starch as a skeleton, acrylic acid as a monomer, sodium bisulfite and potassium persulfate redox system as an initiator, and then uses N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide as a monomer for synthesis. The obtained product is then compounded with a surfactant. The present invention is aimed at the synthesis of dust suppressants under tunnel construction blasting conditions. Therefore, the viscosity requirements are relatively strict. When the viscosity is high, it is not easy to spray, the sprayed droplets are heavy, and it is not easy to capture fine particles of dust. There is also a risk of clogging the spraying equipment. When the viscosity is too low, the dust suppression effect is not good, and the dust generated during blasting is not easy to be captured and precipitated. Therefore, the viscosity of the prepared dust suppressant solution needs to be within a certain range, and then by compounding with a surfactant, the wettability and permeability are enhanced to improve the dust capture efficiency. At the same time, the synthesized dust suppressant is formed by adding a cross-linking agent to form a polymer three-dimensional network structure, which can enhance the toughness of the solidified layer and make tunnel construction more convenient.
