Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of concrete, in particular to a mineral admixture for concrete, a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the development of modern concrete technology, the components in the concrete include mineral admixtures in addition to cement, coarse and fine aggregates, water reducing agent and water; the mineral admixture refers to inorganic mineral powder added during the preparation of concrete to improve the performance of fresh concrete and hardened concrete, and the fineness is the same as or finer than that of cement. Common mineral admixtures include fly ash, granulated blast furnace slag, silica fume, limestone powder, steel slag powder, phosphorus slag powder, zeolite powder, and composite mineral admixture.

[0003] Although the mineral admixture is widely used, its application still faces significant technical bottlenecks in the pursuit of high performance and multifunctional modern concrete engineering practice. For example, two or more admixtures are often used in engineering (such as fly ash and mineral powder) to make up for each other. However, this simple physical compounding often fails to achieve optimal synergy and balance of performance. The differences in the optimal dosage range, reaction rate, particle size distribution complementarity, and water reducing agent adsorbability of different admixtures interact, so that while meeting one or several performance (such as high compressive strength), other key performance (such as crack resistance or impermeability) may be sacrificed. For example, high strength and impermeability may require high silica fume, but will worsen the workability and crack resistance; good workability and crack resistance may depend on fly ash, but will weaken early strength and frost resistance.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a mineral admixture for concrete, so that the concrete has good compressive strength and durability. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application aims to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the first aspect of the present application provides a mineral admixture for concrete, which can effectively improve the compressive strength and durability of the concrete.

[0028] The mineral admixture according to the present application, which is prepared from steel slag micro-powder, phosphogypsum, silica fume, fly ash, modified chitosan fiber and activator, can improve the durability and strength of concrete.

[0030] Further, on one hand, the polyglutamic acid modified chitosan fiber in the present application is chemically bonded with C-S-H gel to form a "reinforced concrete" nanostructure, which improves the toughening effect of the concrete and inhibits the generation of cracks; on the other hand, the polyglutamic acid modified chitosan fiber can block the penetration of chloride ions.
