Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of basalt fiber chopped yarns, in particular to a method for modifying basalt fiber chopped yarns for reducing cracks in cement concrete. Background Art

[0002] Basalt fiber chopped yarn has gradually replaced traditional steel fiber and synthetic fiber due to its high strength, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and environmental protection properties, and has become an important material for reducing cement concrete cracks.

[0003] Although basalt fiber chopped strands are more corrosion-resistant than steel fibers, they are susceptible to surface erosion after long-term use in highly alkaline cementitious environments, resulting in a decrease in mechanical properties. Furthermore, basalt fiber chopped strands are susceptible to wear during cement mixing, leading to clumping and breakage, which affects dispersion. Existing processes improve the wear resistance of basalt fiber chopped strands through dipping and twisting, but this complex process significantly increases production costs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for modifying basalt fiber chopped yarn for reducing cracks in cement concrete, which can improve the durability and use effect of the basalt fiber chopped yarn without significantly increasing production costs.

[0011] In the above technical solution, preferably, the inorganic powder is one or more of fumed silica, titanium dioxide powder, nano-titanium dioxide, and nano-magnesium hydroxide.

[0012] In the above technical solution, preferably, the preparation method of the modifier comprises the following steps: S1.

The inorganic powder in the modifier can reduce the bundling between the basalt fiber chopped yarn strands and improve the dispersion, thereby improving the dispersion uniformity of the basalt fiber chopped yarn in cement concrete.
