Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of mine filling materials, in particular to a high-strength filling material for mines and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Mine filling materials are used to fill voids during mining operations, controlling surrounding rock deformation and preventing surface subsidence. They primarily consist of tailings, cementitious materials, and additives. Blast furnace slag powder is inexpensive, readily available, and highly active, making it a widely used cementitious material in filling materials, grouting materials, and concrete. Increasing the specific surface area and dispersibility of slag powder improves its activity, thereby enhancing the mechanical strength of materials such as fillers.

[0003] Commonly used slag powder modifiers include organic grinding aids, oleic acid, stearic acid, and titanate coupling agents. Chinese patent publication number CN115057636B discloses a slag grinding aid, its preparation method, and cement using the slag grinding aid. Polyols such as tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane and modified glucomannan are used as grinding aids for grinding slag, thereby improving the strength of the cement. However, the grinding aid does not significantly increase the specific surface area of ​​the slag, hindering its activity and the strength of the filler material. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a high-strength filling material for mines and a preparation method, including a polyhydroxysulfonic acid grinding aid and slag powder activated by the grinding aid, which solves the problems of low specific surface area and activity of slag powder and low strength of filling materials for mines.

[0005] The high-strength filling material for mines of the present invention comprises 23.5-30 parts by weight of water, 50-64 parts by weight of chlorine-containing tailings, 5-16 parts by weight of pre-excited gelling slurry, and 2.5-6 parts by weight of polyurethane binder emulsion; The pre-activated gelling slurry is composed of 24-32% by weight of water, 58-68% by weight of grinding aid activated slag powder, and 10-16% by weight of a calcium salt activator.

[0006] The preparation method of high-strength filling material for mines includes the following steps: adding grinding aid activated slag powder and calcium salt activator to water, stirring and mixing to obtain pre-activated gelling slurry, and then adding water, chlorine-containing tailings, and polyurethane binder emulsion, stirring and mixing to obtain high-strength filling material for mines.

[0007] Preferably, the proportion of particles with a diameter of ≦20 μm in the chlorine-containing tailings is 30-65%.

[0008] Preferably, the specific surface area of ​​the calcium salt activator is 400-500m 2 / kg, the calcium salt activator is a solid powder mixture consisting of calcium chloride and calcium sulfate in a mass ratio of 1: (1.6-2).

[0009] The preparation method of the grinding aid activated slag powder is: Step (1) adding water, 100 parts by weight of N,N'-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine, 420-530 parts by weight of 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropanesulfonate sodium, and 140-180 parts by weight of sodium carbonate to ethanol, heating to 75-85°C, condensing and refluxing for 36-48 hours, filtering, heating and evaporating the filtrate, cooling and crystallizing, to obtain a polyhydroxysulfonic acid grinding aid. The reaction formula is: .

[0010] Step (2) adding polyhydroxysulfonic acid grinding aid to water, stirring, adding the solution and water-quenched blast furnace slag powder into a ball mill for ball milling, and drying after ball milling to obtain grinding aid activated slag powder.

[0011] Preferably, the ball milling time in step (2) is 60-120 min.

[0012] Preferably, in step (2), the amount of water-quenched blast furnace slag powder used is 100 parts by weight, and the amount of polyhydroxysulfonic acid grinding aid used is 0.05-0.15 parts by weight.

[0013] Preferably, the preparation method of the polyurethane binder emulsion is: 100 parts by weight of vacuum-dehydrated polyether polyol is mixed with 21-30 parts by weight of isocyanate monomer and 11-14 parts by weight of 2,2-dihydroxymethylpropionic acid, reacted at 70-80°C in a nitrogen atmosphere for 2.5-3h, acetone and 3.8-5.2 parts by weight of 1,4-butanediol are added, stirred and reacted at 40-50°C for 30-40min, triethylamine is added for neutralization, water is added, and the mixture is stirred and dispersed to obtain the polyurethane binder emulsion.

[0014] Preferably, the polyether polyol is polytetramethylene glycol or polyethylene glycol, and the isocyanate monomer is toluene diisocyanate or diphenylmethane diisocyanate.

[0015] Beneficial technical effects: The polyhydroxysulfonic acid grinding aid prepared by the present invention contains multiple hydroxyl and sulfonic acid groups, which have a stronger interaction with the slag surface and a greater wetting effect. After ball milling, the grinding aid can be strongly adsorbed into microcracks on the slag surface, reducing the surface energy of the slag particles and improving their dispersibility. Furthermore, the grinding aid contains multiple nitrogen atoms, which have lone pairs of electrons and exhibit electronegativity. This creates electrostatic repulsion between the slag particles, further improving their dispersibility and increasing their specific surface area. This allows for greater activation of the slag powder, which in turn helps to enhance the compressive strength of the filling material.

[0016] The present invention utilizes a polyhydroxy sulfonic acid grinding aid to perform ball milling modification on slag particles, and then introduces active groups such as sulfonic acid and polyhydroxy into the slag particles to form hydrogen bond interaction forces with groups such as carbamate and carboxyl of the polyurethane binder, thereby improving the interfacial bonding force between the slag powder and the polyurethane binder, making the polyurethane binder have better bonding properties, and further improving the compressive strength of the filling material.

[0028] The specific surface area of ​​the grinding aid-activated slag powder (comparative example 1 is ball-milled slag powder) was tested using a pneumatic Blaine surface area meter.

[0030] Table 1: Specific surface area and compressive strength test results of various embodiments and comparative examples

[0031] Example 1-Example 4: Water-quenched blast furnace slag powder was ball-milled using polyhydroxysulfonic acid grinding aid, and its specific surface area reached 421.2-449.7m 2 / kg, which is significantly higher than that of Comparative Examples 1 to 4. This is mainly because compared with the conventional propylene glycol, triethanolamine and sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate grinding aids in Comparative Examples 2 to 4, the grinding aids in each embodiment contain multiple hydroxyl and sulfonic acid groups, which have stronger interaction with the slag surface and greater wetting effect. They can be strongly adsorbed in the microcracks on the slag surface, reducing the surface energy of the slag particles and improving the dispersibility of the slag particles. In addition, the grinding aids in each embodiment contain multiple nitrogen atoms, have lone pairs of electrons, and are electronegative, so that the slag particles have electrostatic repulsion, further improving the dispersibility of the slag particles, thereby increasing the specific surface area, so that the activity of the slag powder can be stimulated to a greater extent, which is beneficial to improving the compressive strength of the filling material. After the grinding aid modifies the slag particles, active groups such as sulfonic acid and polyhydroxyl are introduced, which form hydrogen bond interaction forces with the carbamate, carboxyl and other groups of the polyurethane binder, thereby improving the interfacial bonding force between the slag powder and the polyurethane binder. The polyurethane binder has better bonding performance, further improving the compressive strength of the filling material.
