Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of building materials, in particular to a composite thermal insulation and sound insulation building block. Background Art

[0002] In traditional architecture, commonly used wall materials such as bricks and concrete were once the primary choice due to their high strength and durability. However, despite their excellent mechanical properties, these materials suffer from heat transfer through exterior walls, leading to internal temperature fluctuations and increased energy consumption for air conditioning, heating, and other equipment. This heat loss not only increases the building's energy burden but also places significant strain on the environment.

[0003] Furthermore, with the acceleration of urbanization and the development of the construction industry, the requirements for energy conservation, environmental protection, and comfort in buildings are becoming increasingly higher. In modern building design, heat and noise are two common problems that continue to threaten the rental comfort and living experience of modern buildings. At present, in order to achieve sound insulation and thermal insulation performance and meet energy-saving and environmental protection requirements, new materials such as foam concrete and lightweight blocks are gradually entering the construction field. These materials are not only lightweight and easy to construct, but also have good thermal insulation and sound insulation performance. However, traditional foam concrete and lightweight blocks have poor stability, are prone to dust generation, have poor waterproof performance, high water absorption, and have the microstructure characteristics of interconnected pores, resulting in less than ideal thermal insulation performance.

[0004] To address these issues, silica aerogel is gaining increasing attention as a new filler for thermal insulation and sound insulation. Silica aerogel's unique nano-network structure and high porosity give it low thermal conductivity. Its high surface area and complex pore structure aid in the scattering and dissipation of sound waves, imparting acoustic delay properties that have led to its application as a filler for thermal insulation and sound insulation. However, due to its brittleness and structural collapse, silica aerogel can easily lead to irreversible structural collapse when added to composite materials, resulting in a loss of thermal and sound insulation performance in practical applications.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a composite thermal insulation and sound insulation building block to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides a composite thermal insulation and sound insulation building block, which can achieve good thermal insulation performance and a certain sound insulation effect.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a composite thermal insulation and sound insulation building block, which is prepared by mixing the following raw materials in parts by weight: 660-720 parts of cement, 210-240 parts of fly ash, 40-60 parts of fiber / modified silica aerogel, 300-350 parts of water, 4.5-10 parts of water reducer, 52-97 parts of prefabricated foam, and 40-60 parts of hydrophobic mixture; The fiber / modified silica aerogel is prepared by mixing tetraethyl orthosilicate, ethanol and deionized water, adding γ-aminoethylaminopropyltrimethoxysilane ethanol aqueous solution and stirring, adjusting the pH value to acidic, ultrasonically treating, adjusting the pH value to alkaline, adding a fiber suspension, ultrasonically treating, aging, impregnating with a n-hexane / ethanol mixed solution, and freeze-drying. The fiber suspension is a plant fiber suspension, which is prepared by adding plant fibers to an ethanol solution, soaking them, and ultrasonically treating them. The prefabricated foam is prepared by mixing nano-alumina, nano-silicon dioxide and water, ultrasonically treating, adding a surfactant, and magnetically stirring to prepare a foaming liquid, and finally using an air compressor; The hydrophobic mixture is made of polydimethylsiloxane, tetraethyl orthosilicate, and dibutyltin dilaurate; The composite thermal insulation and sound insulation building block is prepared by the following preparation method: The cement, fly ash, and fiber / modified silica aerogel are mixed and stirred, and then water and polycarboxylate water reducer are added and continued to be stirred. Then, the hydrophobic mixture is added and stirred alternately at slow and fast speeds. The prefabricated foam is added and slowly stirred until completely dispersed. Then, the mixture is poured into a mold, covered with plastic wrap, allowed to stand, and demolded to obtain a composite thermal insulation and sound insulation block.

[0008] The present invention prepares fiber / modified silica aerogel as a filler to improve the thermal insulation performance of composite thermal insulation and sound insulation blocks. Silica aerogel has low density and ultra-low thermal conductivity, and its highly open pore structure slows heat transfer. This enables it to provide excellent thermal insulation performance, thereby imparting a certain degree of thermal insulation to the overall composite block. However, using silica aerogel alone as a filler significantly reduces the mechanical properties of the composite block, causing the overall structure to collapse. The present invention uses tetraethyl orthosilicate as a silica precursor and γ-aminoethylaminopropyltrimethoxysilane as a modifier. In an alkaline environment, tetraethyl orthosilicate and γ-aminoethylaminopropyltrimethoxysilane are dehydrated and condensed to form a network backbone structure of silica gel, while forming a dense cross-linked network with the fiber. The hydroxyl groups on the surface of the fiber form hydrogen bonds or covalent bonds with the amino groups of γ-aminoethylaminopropyltrimethoxysilane, thereby improving the interfacial bonding ability between the fiber and the silica aerogel, thereby improving the interfacial bonding strength between the two, and improving the shortcomings of the silica aerogel alone, such as certain brittleness and easy structural collapse. In addition, the fiber itself can play a role in buffering stress when added to the matrix, and the tightly cross-linked structure formed by the two can also effectively prevent the generation and expansion of cracks; the modified silica aerogel also effectively isolates the thermal conductivity between the fibers, thereby reducing thermal bridges and heat transfer in the overall material, and ultimately improving its thermal insulation performance. The highly open pore structure of silica aerogel and the cross-linked network structure of fiber / modified silica aerogel greatly increase the porosity of the material. The complex pore structure helps to reflect and scatter low-frequency sound waves, thereby effectively disrupting their propagation path and further improving the overall sound insulation performance.

[0009] The present invention uses nanoparticles to stabilize foam, acting as stabilizers within the foam structure by enhancing interfacial strength and overall stability, allowing for the production of foam-based composite building blocks. The nanoparticles adsorb at the gas-liquid interface of the foam film, reducing the gas-liquid contact area and slowing the foam dissolution rate, thereby enhancing foam stability. Furthermore, the presence of the nanoparticles within the film reduces the foam's diffusion rate and hinders the flow of the foam liquid, helping to maintain a low surface tension within the film and thus improving foam stability. Furthermore, nanosilica reacts with Ca(OH)2 to promote cement hydration, while nanoalumina acts as a filler in cement-based composite materials, resulting in a denser microstructure. Therefore, the addition of nanosilica and nanoalumina to the foam simultaneously stabilizes the foam and promotes hydration. The resulting foam-based composite building block features uniformly distributed pores, effectively attenuating the propagation of sound waves and reducing their transmission efficiency, thereby achieving sound insulation. Furthermore, the presence of internal pores reduces heat conduction, further enhancing the overall thermal insulation effect.

[0010] A water-reducing agent is added to the components of the present invention to improve the fluidity of the slurry. The addition of the fiber / modified silica aerogel component not only has thermal insulation and sound insulation effects, but also has thickening and water retention properties. By adopting the above-mentioned mass proportion matching ratio, the prepared composite thermal insulation and sound insulation building block can achieve good thermal insulation performance and sound insulation effect, and can meet the overall mechanical strength requirements.

[0011] Optionally, the mass ratio of polydimethylsiloxane, tetraethyl orthosilicate and dibutyltin dilaurate in the hydrophobic mixture is 100:10:1.

[0012] The components of the present invention contain a hydrophobic mixture, wherein polydimethylsiloxane is used to perform super-hydrophobic modification on the base material, tetraethyl orthosilicate serves as a crosslinking agent for the polydimethylsiloxane, and dibutyltin dilaurate serves as a reaction catalyst. The hydrophobic modification can reduce the water absorption rate of the overall composite building block, further reducing heat dissipation to improve the thermal insulation effect.

[0013] Optionally, the plant fiber suspension is prepared by adding plant fibers to an ethanol solution with a volume concentration of 30%, soaking the solution for 40 minutes, and then ultrasonically treating the solution for 15 minutes.

[0014] Optionally, the fiber / modified silica aerogel is prepared by mixing tetraethyl orthosilicate, ethanol and deionized water and stirring for 15 to 20 minutes, adding γ-aminoethylaminopropyltrimethoxysilane ethanol aqueous solution and stirring for 15 to 20 minutes, adding hydrochloric acid to adjust the pH value to 2 to 3, ultrasonically treating at 20 to 30°C for 10 to 30 minutes, adding ammonia water to adjust the pH value to 7.2 to 8, adding fiber suspension and ultrasonically treating at 50°C for 30 to 50 minutes, aging for 24 to 36 hours, adding n-hexane / ethanol mixed solution and immersing for 6 to 8 hours, and freeze-drying for 24 to 36 hours.

[0015] During the preparation process of the present invention, the aerogel is finally immersed in a mixed solution of n-hexane / ethanol to strengthen the main chain structure of the aerogel network and improve the overall strength.

[0016] Optionally, the mass concentration of the γ-aminoethylaminopropyltrimethoxysilane ethanol aqueous solution is 30% to 50%.

[0017] Optionally, the prefabricated foam is prepared by mixing nano-alumina, nano-silicon dioxide and water, ultrasonically treating for 10 to 20 minutes, adding a surfactant, and magnetically stirring at 200 rpm at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours to prepare a foaming liquid, and finally using an air compressor.

[0018] Optionally, the surfactant is one of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate, sodium polyvinyl alcohol sulfonate, and sodium stearate.

[0019] Optionally, the composite thermal insulation and sound insulation building block is prepared by the following preparation method: Cement, fly ash, and fiber / modified silica aerogel were mixed and stirred for 2 to 5 minutes, and then water and polycarboxylate water reducer were added and stirred for 2 to 5 minutes. Then, the hydrophobic mixture was added and stirred alternately at slow and fast speeds for 2 to 5 minutes each. Prefabricated foam was added and stirred slowly until completely dispersed. Then, the mixture was poured into a mold, covered with plastic wrap, and allowed to stand at 20 to 30°C for 36 to 48 hours. The composite thermal insulation and sound insulation blocks were demoulded to obtain the composite thermal insulation and sound insulation blocks.

[0020] In the present invention, after the slurry is poured into the mold, the mold is covered with a preservative film to prevent water evaporation.

[0021] Optionally, the plant fiber is obtained by scraping off the outer layer of pineapple leaves with a manual spatula, extracting the inner fibers by combing and manual methods, rinsing with water, drying at room temperature for 36 to 48 hours, and then cutting.

[0022] The present invention extracts the fibers inside the pineapple leaves and then rinses them with water to remove impurities. When the plant leaves are reused as plant fibers as fillers, the total discard of potentially useful materials can be minimized, thereby ensuring good environmental sustainability.

[0023] The above technical solution of the present invention includes at least the following beneficial effects: 1. This invention effectively improves thermal and sound insulation performance by grafting modified silica aerogel onto fibers as a filler in composite thermal insulation and sound insulation blocks. While silica aerogel provides excellent thermal insulation, its use alone can reduce overall mechanical properties. The interface between the modified aerogel and the fibers enhances structural strength, preventing cracks. Furthermore, by isolating the thermal conductivity between the fibers, thermal bridges are reduced, improving insulation effectiveness.

[0024] 2. This invention stabilizes the foam structure and promotes cement hydration by adding nano-silica and nano-alumina to the foam. The nanoparticles adsorb within the foam liquid film, enhancing foam stability, reducing the contact area at the gas-liquid interface, and slowing the foam dissolution rate. Nano-silica promotes cement hydration, while the filling action of nano-alumina creates a dense microstructure, enhancing the mechanical strength of the foam. The uniform distribution of pores within the foam composite building block effectively attenuates sound wave transmission, improving sound insulation, while also reducing heat conduction and enhancing thermal insulation.

Furthermore, compared to Comparative Example 3, the thermal conductivity and density of the sample in Example 1 also decrease significantly, indicating a significant improvement in thermal insulation performance. Compared to Comparative Example 2, the addition of nanoparticles to the prefabricated foam in Example 1 significantly reduces thermal conductivity and increases sound absorption, resulting in excellent overall thermal and sound insulation performance. Furthermore, the absence of a hydrophobic mixture in Example 5 significantly impacts water resistance, which in turn affects subsequent thermal insulation and durability.

[0053] The above is a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Those skilled in the art may make several improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
