Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fire extinguishing materials, and in particular to a fire extinguishing material for mines and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] As key locations for the extraction of coal and other mineral resources, mine safety is paramount. However, mine fires remain a major threat to mine safety. Mine fires not only destroy large quantities of coal, resulting in significant economic losses, but also generate high temperatures, toxic and hazardous gases, and smoke, seriously threatening the lives of underground workers. They can even trigger secondary disasters such as gas explosions, further expanding the scope of the accident. Therefore, the development of efficient and reliable mine fire extinguishing materials is of great practical significance for preventing and controlling the occurrence of mine fires and ensuring safe mine production.

[0003] However, the existing fire-fighting materials for mines have many limitations in practical applications. Taking certain gel materials as an example, this type of material has good heat insulation and oxygen isolation properties at room temperature and can effectively prevent the spread of fire. However, in high-temperature environments, gel materials are prone to dehydration. As water is lost, the structure of the gel is gradually destroyed, and its heat insulation and oxygen isolation functions are also lost. Therefore, this type of gel material may only be suitable for the prevention and control of coal spontaneous combustion in low-temperature environments. In the early stages of coal spontaneous combustion, the temperature is relatively low, and the gel material can play a better role. However, as the coal spontaneous combustion develops, the temperature rises, and the gel material cannot maintain good fire extinguishing performance, making it difficult to meet the fire prevention and extinguishing needs of high-temperature fires. In addition to unstable performance at high temperatures, the lack of stability of existing fire-fighting materials is also reflected in other aspects. Some fire-fighting materials are prone to physical or chemical changes during storage, resulting in a decrease in their performance. Based on this, the present invention proposes a fire-fighting material for mines and a preparation method thereof. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention proposes a fire-proofing and extinguishing material for mines and a preparation method thereof, which improves the problem that existing fire-proofing and extinguishing materials for mines are easily dehydrated and structurally damaged in high-temperature environments, resulting in loss of heat insulation and oxygen isolation properties, and improves the performance stability of the material in high-temperature fire prevention and extinguishing; it also improves the problem that existing fire-proofing and extinguishing materials are prone to physical or chemical changes during storage, resulting in performance degradation, and improves the storage stability and comprehensive fire-proofing and extinguishing performance of the material.

[0005] The technical solutions of the present invention are as follows: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a fire extinguishing material for mines, which is composed of the following raw materials in parts by weight: 30-40 parts of sulfoaluminate cement, 20-25 parts of acid-activated coal gangue, 5-10 parts of bentonite-based composite phase change agent, 3-5 parts of hollow glass microspheres, 0.5-1 part of polypropylene fiber, 3-4 parts of chitosan-acrylic acid copolymer, 1-2 parts of foaming agent, 2-3 parts of expanded graphite, 1-3 parts of zinc borate, 2-4 parts of nano-silicon dioxide and 260-320 parts of water.

[0006] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of the acid-activated coal gangue includes drying the coal gangue at 100-110°C for 2-3 hours and then crushing it to 200 mesh, mixing the crushed coal gangue with a 10% volume concentration of sulfuric acid solution at a solid-liquid ratio of 1g:3-4mL, stirring at a temperature of 80±2°C and 180-220rpm for 2-3 hours, vacuum filtration separation, and washing, placing the acid-washed coal gangue in a muffle furnace, heating it to 560-600°C at 5°C / min, calcining it at a constant temperature for 50-70 minutes, naturally cooling it to room temperature, and grinding it to a particle size of ≤50μm.

[0007] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of the bentonite-based composite phase-shifted product includes: mixing bentonite, anhydrous sodium sulfate and water; ultrasonically dispersing for 30-40 minutes to form a uniform suspension; transferring the suspension to a constant temperature reactor, stirring at 60°C±1°C and 400-500 rpm for 3-4 hours; centrifuging, taking the precipitate and vacuum drying it at 70-80°C for 10-12 hours, and grinding the dried material and passing it through a 200-mesh sieve to obtain the product.

[0008] As a further technical solution, the weight ratio of the bentonite, anhydrous sodium sulfate and water is 3-4:1-2:20-30.

[0009] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of the chitosan-acrylic acid copolymer includes: adding chitosan to an acetic acid solution with a volume concentration of 2%-3%, stirring at 500-600 rpm for 20-30 minutes, heating to 50-55°C to accelerate dissolution to form a chitosan solution; adding acrylic acid monomer dropwise to the chitosan solution at a rate of 1 mL / min, and simultaneously adding potassium persulfate initiator to react, cooling to room temperature, and adjusting the pH to 7±0.2; and spray drying to obtain the product.

[0010] As a further technical solution, the usage ratio of the chitosan, acetic acid solution, acrylic acid monomer and potassium persulfate is 50-60 g: 900-1100 mL: 140-160 g: 2-3 g.

[0011] As a further technical solution, the reaction is carried out under nitrogen protection, 200-300 rpm, and 60°C±1°C for 3-4 hours.

[0012] As a further technical solution, the inlet air temperature of the spray drying is 170-180°C, the outlet air temperature is 80-90°C, and the atomization pressure is 0.2-0.3 MPa.

[0013] As a further technical solution, the foaming agent includes a cement foaming agent and a silicone resin foam stabilizer in a weight ratio of 1:0.2-0.5.

[0014] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a fire extinguishing material for a mine, comprising the steps of: (1) Add sulphoaluminate cement, acid-activated coal gangue, nano-silica, zinc borate and expanded graphite to half of the water in sequence, and stir at 700-800 rpm for 10-15 minutes to form a uniform slurry; (2) Add chitosan-acrylic acid copolymer, adjust the stirring speed to 400-500 rpm, and continue for 5-10 minutes; pre-mix polypropylene fiber and hollow glass microspheres and add them, stirring at 500-600 rpm for 3-5 minutes; add bentonite-based composite phase change agent and stir at a low speed of 300-400 rpm for 2-4 minutes; (3) Add the foaming agent and the remaining weight of water, and stir at 200-300 rpm for 15-20 minutes.

[0015] The working principle and beneficial effects of the present invention are: The present invention introduces acid-activated gangue into mine fire prevention and extinguishing materials, replacing traditional unactivated gangue. Impurities on the gangue surface are removed through the acid washing process, exposing more active sites, significantly improving its surface activity, and enhancing the interfacial bonding between the gangue and the cement matrix, making the internal structure of the material more compact and effectively improving the compressive strength of the material. The calcination process promotes the formation of a porous structure within the gangue, which not only increases the specific surface area of ​​the material, but also improves the adsorption capacity for oxygen and combustible gases, enhancing the chemical resistance. Furthermore, the porous structure itself has good thermal stability, can buffer temperature stress in high-temperature environments, and reduce cracks in the material caused by uneven thermal expansion.

[0016] Furthermore, acid-activated gangue possesses both gelling and adsorption properties, acting synergistically with other components within the material system. Its gelling activity contributes to the formation of a stable material framework, while its adsorption function effectively adsorbs and immobilizes the inhibitor components, ensuring their uniform dispersion within the material and improving the material's thermal stability and performance. Without acid activation (as in Comparative Examples 1 and 2), the material framework becomes loose, the inhibitor components are unevenly dispersed, and thermal stability is significantly degraded.

[0017] This invention utilizes bentonite and anhydrous sodium sulfate to prepare a bentonite-based composite phase-change material for use in mine fire extinguishing materials, replacing conventional bentonite. This material exhibits unique phase-change energy storage properties. Under high-temperature conditions, the phase-change material undergoes a phase transition and absorbs heat, effectively buffering thermal stresses and preventing dehydration and cracking caused by excessive temperatures, significantly improving the material's high-temperature stability. Conventional bentonite lacks this phase-change energy storage capacity (as shown in Comparative Example 3) and is unable to regulate temperature through phase-change heat absorption. This results in the material being susceptible to dehydration and cracking at high temperatures, resulting in reduced storage stability. Furthermore, the bentonite-based composite phase-change material acts as a structural stabilizer within the material system. Uniformly dispersed throughout the material, it modulates the material's internal stress distribution through a phase-change process during temperature fluctuations, mitigating cracking caused by differences in thermal expansion coefficients. Furthermore, the composite phase-change material interacts with other inorganic-organic components within the material to form a stable structural system, enhancing the material's overall strength and stability. If there is no bentonite-based composite phase changer in the material (such as Comparative Example 4), the material loses its thermal management ability, water evaporates quickly, the structure collapses, and the synergistic reinforcement effect of the inorganic-organic components is also weakened.

[0018] The present invention also synthesized a chitosan-acrylic acid copolymer and applied it to mine fire extinguishing materials, replacing other polymers such as sodium alginate. Chitosan-acrylic acid copolymer has excellent film-forming properties, forming a dense protective film on the material surface, effectively preventing the penetration of oxygen and combustible gases and improving the material's resistance to chemical reactions. Furthermore, the active groups in its molecular structure exhibit chelation, forming stable chelates with metal ions and other substances in the inhibitor, enabling sustained release of the inhibitor and prolonging the duration of the resistance. When sodium alginate replaces the chitosan-acrylic acid copolymer (as in Comparative Example 5), the lack of these film-forming and chelating properties reduces the sustained release of the inhibitor, weakening the fiber-matrix interfacial adhesion and resulting in reduced material performance. It also acts as an interfacial binder within the material system, forming a good interfacial bond with components such as polypropylene fibers and hollow glass microspheres, enhancing the adhesion between the fibers and the matrix and improving the overall strength and toughness of the material. This interfacial bonding helps maintain the structural integrity of the material when subjected to external forces or temperature fluctuations, reducing the initiation and propagation of cracks.

[0019] In the present invention, expanded graphite and zinc borate are used in combination to exert a synergistic flame retardant effect. Expanded graphite can rapidly expand at high temperatures to form a dense thermal insulation layer, effectively preventing heat transfer and oxygen diffusion, acting as a physical barrier. Zinc borate decomposes at high temperatures to produce non-combustible gases, diluting the concentration of combustible gases. At the same time, its decomposition products cover the surface of the material, acting as a chemical flame retardant. The two work synergistically, preventing the spread of fire through physical barriers and suppressing the combustion reaction through chemical flame retardancy, significantly improving the material's resistance to fire. If zinc borate is used in place of expanded graphite (as in Comparative Example 6), relying solely on the chemical flame retardant effect of zinc borate alone, without the physical barrier effect of expanded graphite, the resistance rate decreases significantly and the high-temperature mass loss rate is high.

This is because the surface activity of the unactivated coal gangue is low, and it is impossible to remove impurities and calcinate to form a porous structure through acid washing, resulting in weak interfacial bonding with the cement matrix and decreased retardation performance. The compressive strength and retardation rate of the acid-free activated coal gangue in Comparative Example 2 are further reduced, and the crack density is the highest. This is because the acid-activated coal gangue has both gelling activity and adsorption function, and its absence leads to a loose material skeleton, uneven dispersion of the retardation components, and significant deterioration of thermal stability. In Comparative Example 3, bentonite replaces the composite phase changer, and the high-temperature mass loss rate and crack density increase significantly, and the storage stability decreases. This is because ordinary bentonite lacks phase change energy storage capacity and cannot absorb heat through phase change to buffer temperature stress, resulting in dehydration and cracking of the material at high temperature. Comparative Example 4 has no bentonite-based composite phase changer, with the lowest compressive strength and retardation rate and the highest high-temperature mass loss rate. This is because the lack of composite phase variants causes the material to lose its thermal management ability, resulting in rapid evaporation of water and structural collapse, while weakening the synergistic reinforcement effect of inorganic-organic components. In Comparative Example 5, sodium alginate replaces chitosan-acrylic acid copolymer, and the resistance rate is slightly lower than that of Example 1, and the high-temperature crack density increases. This is because chitosan-acrylic acid copolymer has both film-forming properties and chelating effects, and its absence leads to a decrease in the slow-release ability of the inhibitor and a weakening of the fiber-matrix interface adhesion. In Comparative Example 6, zinc borate replaces expanded graphite, and the resistance rate decreases significantly, and the high-temperature mass loss rate is higher. This is because the high-temperature expansion characteristics of expanded graphite can form a dense thermal insulation layer, while single zinc borate only provides chemical flame retardancy and lacks physical barrier effect.
