[0020] 2. Modifying the polyurea aerogel with triethanolamine renders it hydrophilic, reducing the mortar's consistency, increasing its dry density, and improving its strength. Further modification is achieved by adding a copper chloride dihydrate solution. The copper ions in the copper chloride dihydrate react with triethanolamine to enhance the copper chloride's loading on the polyurea aerogel, thereby improving the mortar's mechanical properties and compressive strength.

The present invention also prepares an epoxidized acrylic emulsion. This epoxidized acrylic emulsion is first uniformly mixed with the straw fiber-loaded polyurea aerogel, and then added to the remaining cement mortar materials for blending. This improves the dispersion of the straw fiber-loaded polyurea aerogel in the cement mortar, thereby enhancing the mechanical and thermal insulation properties of the mortar. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The mixture was aged for 24 hours to obtain a gel material. The mixture was impregnated with tert-butanol at a volume ratio of tert-butanol to gel material of 4:1 and freeze-dried to obtain a polyurea aerogel.

[0102] Step 2: Preparation of modified polyurea aerogel:

[0103] 30 g of polyurea aerogel and 100 mL of anhydrous ethanol were ultrasonically dispersed for 13 min, 2 g of triethanolamine was added, and the mixture was stirred for 22 min. 7 mL of 20 mg / mL copper chloride dihydrate solution was added and the mixture was stirred for 22 min. The mixture was washed and dried to obtain a modified polyurea aerogel.

[0104] Step 3: Preparation of polyurea aerogel loaded with straw fibers:

[0105] Take 13g of straw fiber and 500mL of deionized water, ultrasonically disperse for 35min, add 0.5g of dopamine, stir for 30min, add 1.2g of tris (hydroxymethyl)aminomethane buffer, add hydrochloric acid to adjust the pH to 8.5, stir for 23h, add 10g of modified polyurea aerogel, stir for 23h, centrifuge, wash, and dry to obtain polyurea aerogel loaded with straw fiber;

[0106] Step 4: Preparation of lightweight thermal insulation cement mortar:

[0107] Mixing silicate cement, kaolin, fly ash and silica fume uniformly to obtain an inorganic gelling material;

[0108] The inorganic gelling material comprises the following components, by weight: 73 parts of Portland cement, 8 parts of kaolin, 5 parts of silica fume, and 3.5 parts of fly ash;

[0109] Take straw fiber-loaded polyurea aerogel, acrylic emulsion, machine-made sand, inorganic gelling material, slag, deionized water, redispersible latex powder, water reducing agent, and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose ether, stir evenly to obtain a lightweight thermal insulation cement mortar;

[0110] The lightweight thermal insulation cement mortar includes the following components, by weight: 50 parts of acrylic emulsion, 47 parts of straw fiber-loaded polyurea aerogel, 34 parts of inorganic gelling material, 32 parts of machine-made sand, 11 parts of slag, 16 parts of deionized water, 2.5 parts of redispersible latex powder, 2.5 parts of water reducer, and 0.8 parts of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether.

[0111] experiment:

[0112] The lightweight thermal insulation cement mortars prepared in Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 were cured at a constant temperature and humidity of 23°C and 60% for 28 days to prepare 40 mm × 40 mm × 160 mm test pieces. The test pieces were then uniformly loaded at a rate of 2400 N / s ± 200 N / s to test the compressive strength. The thermal conductivity of the 300 mm × 300 mm × 30 mm test pieces was tested using a flat-plate thermal conductivity meter in accordance with GB / T 10294-2008. The results are shown in Table 1 below.

[0114] Compressive strength / Mpa Thermal conductivity w / m·k Example 1 11.1 0.06 Example 2 11.3 0.07 Example 3 11.0 0.06 Comparative Example 1 9.8 0.07 Comparative Example 2 10.2 0.06 Comparative Example 3 10.3 0.10

[0115] Conclusion: From the comparison of the data in the table, it can be seen that in Comparative Example 1, triethanolamine is not used to modify the polyurea aerogel, and the hydrophilicity of the polyurea aerogel decreases, the dry density decreases, and the strength of the mortar also decreases. In Comparative Example 2, copper chloride dihydrate solution is not added. The copper ions in copper chloride dihydrate can undergo a chelating reaction with triethanolamine, the loading amount of copper chloride on the polyurea aerogel decreases, and the mechanical properties of the mortar decrease. In Comparative Example 3, no epoxidized acrylic emulsion is added. The polyurea aerogel loaded with straw fibers is unevenly dispersed in the cement mortar, and the mechanical properties and thermal insulation properties of the mortar are reduced. Examples 1-3 of the present invention use triethanolamine to modify the polyurea aerogel, so that the polyurea aerogel becomes a hydrophilic substance, reduces the consistency of the mortar, increases the dry density, and improves the strength of the mortar. Copper chloride dihydrate solution was added for further modification. The copper ions in copper chloride dihydrate can undergo a chelating reaction with triethanolamine, thereby increasing the loading of copper chloride on the polyurea aerogel, thereby improving the mechanical properties of the mortar and enhancing the compressive strength.
