Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of building materials and floor construction engineering, and particularly relates to an environment-friendly polishing dust-free floor concrete as well as a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The concrete floor is widely used in industrial plants, warehouse logistics, underground garages and large commercial spaces, and the mechanical properties, wear resistance and surface cleanliness of the concrete floor are directly related to the service life and environmental friendliness of the floor system. In the long-term use or later maintenance process, the surface of the floor is prone to produce micro-cracks, dust falling and surface strength degradation due to wear, impact or polishing, which not only affects the appearance and safety, but also increases the cleaning and maintenance cost.
[0003] In order to improve the above problems, the industry usually uses the method of spraying inorganic curing agent (such as sodium-based or lithium-based silicate) on the surface to enhance the surface performance of the concrete floor. Such materials form a dense structure by reacting with the cement hydration products, thereby improving the surface strength and impermeability. However, the traditional curing agent treatment method still has the following technical defects:
[0004] 1. The enhancement effect is limited to the surface layer, the reaction depth is limited, and it is difficult to maintain the strengthening structure for a long time;
[0005] 2. Dusting is still easy to occur during polishing, especially under the action of high-speed machinery, the pulverization phenomenon is obvious, which affects the construction environment and the health of personnel;
[0006] 3. It is difficult to realize the secondary reaction or self-healing function, the material lacks a responsive mechanism, and it cannot actively repair micro-cracks and stress concentration areas;
[0007] 4. Most surface treatment schemes are post-strengthening, which is disconnected with the concrete body, has poor integrity, and insufficient durability;
[0008] 5. The carbon footprint and VOC emission problems of the material have not been effectively controlled, and it is difficult to meet the requirements of green building development.
[0009] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a floor concrete product that is based on the concrete body, introduces enhancement function in the preparation stage of the concrete, and has good wear resistance, low dust emission and green environmental protection characteristics in the later period, to meet the engineering requirements of modern high performance, low maintenance cost and sustainable development.

[0049] An application of an environmentally friendly polishing dust-free floor concrete, which is applied to industrial plants, warehouse logistics, commercial facilities, underground parking lots and other ground paving scenes with high requirements for wear resistance and dust-free environment.
[0050] The reaction principle of the application is as follows:
[0051] The action mechanism of the environmentally friendly polishing dust-free floor concrete system of the application is based on the two-stage reaction path of "primary reaction + friction activation" of the solidifying agent, and the continuous strengthening and re-densification of the surface structure of the concrete floor are realized through multi-component cooperation.
[0052] 1. Preliminary reaction mechanism of lithium silicate and cement hydration products
[0053] Lithium silicate (Li2SiO3) dissociates in aqueous solution to produce lithium ions (Li⁺) and silicate ions (SiO3²⁻). When it penetrates into the surface layer of concrete, it will react with a large amount of calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) generated during the hydration of cement to form a dense calcium-silicate hydrate gel (C-S-H):
[0054] SiO3²⁻+Ca²⁺+H2O→C-S-H gel↓;
[0055] This C-S-H gel can seal capillary pores and improve the density and wear resistance of the concrete surface. At the same time, the small radius of lithium ions helps them penetrate deeply into the concrete pore structure and partially replace sodium and potassium ions, improving their resistance to alkali-aggregate reaction (ASR).
[0056] 2. Delayed release and activation of phase change nanocapsules
[0057] The phase change nanocapsule structure introduced in this invention uses a polyurethane / polyurea microcapsule shell to coat the core reactant (such as water glass solution, alkali metal salt, or reaction-promoting alkaline additive). This structure remains stable at ambient temperature, but is released when the core components are released due to local friction heating (40-70°C) or mechanical shear rupture during polishing.
[0058] Frictional heat during polishing triggers capsule rupture, releasing reactants such as water glass (Na2SiO3), which further reacts with unreacted Ca²⁺ and OH⁻ in cement to form secondary C-S-H gel layers, supplementing and strengthening the previous structure:
[0059] Na2SiO3+Ca(OH)2+H2O→C-S-H gel↓+NaOH↑;
[0060] The generated NaOH further increases the local pH, which helps to trigger the reaction of aluminum salt additives such as Al2(SO4)3) that may be present in the capsules to form calcium aluminate hydrate (C-A-H) gel, enhancing the chemical stability and density of the surface layer:
[0061] Al³⁺+Ca²⁺+H2O→C-A-H gel↓;
[0062] 3. Physical filling and interfacial strengthening of nanofillers
[0063] The added nano-silicon dioxide (SiO2) can adsorb Ca2+ and OH- as a reaction active site due to its extremely high specific surface area, and react with them to form a polymeric silica gel in an alkaline environment, thereby promoting the formation of C-S-H gel and enhancing the interfacial bonding strength. In addition, nano-SiO2 also has excellent physical filling effect, which can effectively fill the micro-pores in concrete, improve the overall structural density, and further inhibit the formation of water vapor permeation and carbonization path. In addition, there is a strong interfacial bonding force between the nano-filler and the reaction product, such as Si-O-Si, Al-O-Ca, etc. Bridge structure, further stabilizing the hardened layer.
[0064] 4. Regulation of reaction rhythm by slow-release chelating agent
[0065] The chelating agent (such as EDTA) has a reversible complexation reaction with free Ca2+, Mg2+ and other metal ions in the system, which temporarily slows down the reaction rate, avoiding the formation of clumps or agglomerates due to too fast initial reaction. At the same time, its complex release mechanism has certain responsiveness to temperature rise or shear triggering in the later period, which is helpful for "time release" or "activation response". When the local pH rises or is heated, the complex partially dissociates, releasing Ca2+ to participate in the reaction.
[0066] EDTA 4 -Ca2+ ⇌ [Ca-EDTA]2- (stable complex).
[0067] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of the present application are:
[0068] (1) No obvious dust during polishing process, friendly to construction and use environment: by introducing a composite solidifying agent with active response mechanism into the concrete, the density and strength of the surface layer structure of the concrete are effectively improved, and the dust emission is significantly reduced during the polishing process of the floor use or maintenance, meeting the needs of green construction and high cleanliness scene;
[0069] (2) Surface hardness and wear resistance are greatly improved: the lithium silicate in the concrete and the cement hydration product generate dense C-S-H gel, combined with the physical filling effect of nano-filler and the secondary reaction mechanism of phase change capsule, the surface layer of the floor has excellent wear resistance and scratch resistance;
[0070] (3) Self-healing and strengthening ability, prolonging the service life: the phase change capsule breaks under the action of heat or shear stress in the later period, releasing the internal reactants, inducing the formation of secondary C-S-H / C-A-H gel, realizing the re-densification and self-repair of the micro-crack area, effectively delaying the damage development, and prolonging the service life of the floor;
[0071] (4) Green low carbon, life cycle environmental benefits are obvious: the curing agent of the application adopts water-based formula, no organic solvent, no VOC release; at the same time, the durability of concrete can be improved to reduce the frequency of later maintenance and repair, significantly reduce carbon emissions and resource consumption, and has good carbon emission reduction potential;
[0072] (5) Compatible with conventional concrete production process, strong adaptability: the composite curing agent can be directly mixed uniformly in the concrete mixing stage, the construction process is not changed, and it can adapt to the existing commercial concrete production line and pumping process, and has good engineering popularization and large-scale application foundation;
[0073] (6) Wide application range, meet the demand of high-performance floor in multiple scenarios: the concrete of the application is suitable for industrial plants, logistics warehouses, electronic workshops, underground garages and green buildings, and is especially suitable for high-performance floor systems with high requirements of "wear resistance + low dust + low maintenance".

[0137] The data analysis is as follows:
[0138] After the incorporation of the composite curing agent in the examples, the 28d compressive strength of the concrete is significantly improved, among which the strengths of examples 1 and 3 reach 55.1 MPa and 52.1 MPa respectively, which are obviously better than that of blank comparative example 5 (37.0 MPa) without curing agent, and the improvement rates are 49% and 41% respectively. In the comparative example group, the strengths of comparative examples 1 without adding nano-silica, comparative example 2 without adding capsules, comparative example 3 without adding EDTA and comparative example 4 using sodium-based curing agent are all between 41.5-45.1 MPa, which are obviously lower than those of the examples, indicating that the components of the present application have a significant enhancement effect on the mechanical properties under the combined action.
[0139] The abrasion loss results show that the abrasion value of example 1 is 0.8 kg / m², which is much lower than that of comparative example 5 (3.2 kg / m²) and comparative example 1 (2.1 kg / m²), indicating that the composite curing agent of the present application can significantly improve the surface wear resistance of the floor concrete. Especially the synergistic effect of nano-filler and phase change capsules effectively strengthens the surface structure and improves the mechanical damage resistance.
[0140] The water absorption of the concrete after incorporating the solidifying agent in the examples is less than 1.6%, wherein the water absorption of example 1 is the lowest (1.1%), and the water absorption of comparative example 5 is as high as 4.3%, and the water absorption of the comparative example group is generally greater than 2%. It can be seen that the composite solidifying agent of the application effectively seals the capillary pores through the mechanisms of nano-filling, gelation reaction and structure densification, thereby improving the impermeability and durability of the concrete.
[0141] The surface Mohs hardness of example 1 and example 5 reaches grade 7, which is better than other groups, indicating that the solidifying agent of the application has a significant effect on improving the surface densification and scratch resistance. The comparative example group is generally not more than grade 6, the sodium-based solidifying agent comparative sample (comparative example 4) and the blank group (comparative example 5) are only grade 4, and the difference is obvious.
[0142] The dust concentration during polishing of the example is controlled between 85 and 140 μg / m³, which is significantly lower than that of comparative example 5 (390 μg / m³) and the traditional sodium-based comparative sample (comparative example 4, 190 μg / m³), fully indicating that the solidifying agent used in the application effectively suppresses the dust dispersion in the polishing process by enhancing the integrity and densification of the surface layer structure. The secondary reaction enhancement mechanism of the phase change capsule is particularly crucial for delaying damage and dust prevention.
[0143] The software simulation results show that the carbon emission of the solidifying agent of the application is controlled between 340 and 348 kg / ton, which is basically equivalent to that of the ordinary concrete comparative example 5 (337 kg / ton) without incorporating the solidifying agent, and is significantly better than that of the traditional sodium-based solidifying agent comparative example 4 (383 kg / ton). It indicates that although the composite reinforcing component is added in the application, the overall carbon footprint is well controlled due to the high activity of the system, the low dosage, and the reasonable water-based formulation, which meets the development direction of green building materials.
[0144] According to the analysis of the results of example 4 (reduced dosage) and example 5 (increased dosage), the dosage of the solidifying agent has a regulating effect on the performance. The strength, wear resistance and dust prevention performance of example 4 are slightly lower than those of example 1, while example 5 performs similarly to or even slightly better than example 1, indicating that appropriately increasing the dosage is effective in performance enhancement, but economic efficiency and carbon emission control need to be considered.
[0145] The test results show that the composite environmental protection solidifying agent designed in the application can significantly improve the mechanical properties, wear resistance, dust prevention ability and surface densification of the concrete floor, and has low carbon emission, which is better than the traditional sodium-based solidifying agent or the blank system. The key components (lithium silicate, nano-silicon dioxide, phase change capsule, EDTA, etc.) have a synergistic effect on the performance, which verifies the scientificity and practicability of the formulation of the application, and has good industrial promotion and application prospect.
[0146] 1、Traditional concrete floor is easy to produce a large amount of dust in the later maintenance grinding or long-term use due to the loose surface structure, which not only pollutes the environment, but also may cause respiratory diseases and other health problems. The invention introduces a composite solidifying agent in the preparation stage of concrete to solve the problem of dust from the root, and the lithium silicate in the solidifying agent reacts with the cement hydration product to generate dense C-S-H gel, which directly fills the surface capillary pores of concrete, reduces the surface porosity; nano-silicon dioxide further physically fills the micropores to form a double dense structure of "gel + nanoparticles", reducing the particle shedding during grinding; the active components are released by the phase change nano-capsule when the temperature rises during grinding and friction, and the secondary gel is generated to supplement the surface structure, avoiding dust due to local damage. Actual test shows that the dust concentration of the concrete of the invention during grinding is only 85-160 μg / m³ (Examples 1-5), which is far lower than that of traditional concrete (390 μg / m³) and traditional sodium-based solidifying agent treated concrete (190 μg / m³), and can meet the needs of high cleanliness scenes such as industrial plants and electronic workshops.
[0147] 2、The traditional concrete floor is easy to appear sanding and wear after long-term use due to the insufficient surface strength, which affects the service life. The invention significantly improves the surface mechanical properties through the synergistic effect of multiple components: the C-S-H gel generated by lithium silicate and cement hydration is the core carrier of concrete strength, which can improve the surface compressive strength; the gas phase nano-silicon dioxide (specific surface area 180-220 m² / g) can promote gel generation by adsorbing Ca²⁺ in cement due to its high activity, and its nanoscale can enhance the interfacial bonding force between gel and aggregate; the active components released by the phase change capsule can generate C-S-H / C-A-H gel in the wear or grinding area, dynamically supplementing the wear-resistant layer. Performance test shows that the 28d compressive strength of the concrete of the invention is 50.9-55.1 MPa (Examples 1-3), the 45-cycle abrasion loss is only 0.8-0.9 kg / m², and the surface Mohs hardness is 6-7 grade, which is far superior to the blank control group (compressive strength 37.0 MPa, abrasion 3.2 kg / m², hardness 4 grade), and can withstand long-term rolling and high-frequency friction of heavy machinery.
[0148] 3. Traditional curing agents can only achieve "one-time reinforcement" and cannot cope with structural damage caused by later wear and tear. The present application innovatively introduces a "responsive self-healing mechanism": the phase change temperature of the phase change nano-capsule is designed to be "higher than the storage / construction temperature and lower than the polishing friction temperature" (such as 40-70℃), which remains stable during normal use and only breaks down when polishing or local overheating occurs; the components released by the capsule, such as water glass, and the unreacted cement components generate C-S-H gel again, filling in micro-cracks or worn areas; the slow-release chelating agent EDTA can delay the initial reaction rate, leaving some unreacted active components to ensure sufficient reactants for later self-healing. This dual mechanism of "initial reinforcement + later self-healing" enables the floor to dynamically repair damage during long-term use. Comparative tests show that the wear amount of Comparative Example 2 without phase change capsules is 2.2 kg / m², which is significantly higher than that of Example 1 containing capsules (0.8 kg / m²), proving the role of the self-healing mechanism in improving wear resistance.
[0149] 4. While improving performance, the present application also considers the environmental friendliness of the material throughout its life cycle: the curing agent uses a water-based formulation without the addition of organic solvents, avoiding VOC emissions; the preparation process does not require high temperature and high pressure, with low energy consumption; high wear resistance and self-healing ability reduce the frequency of floor renovation, reducing the consumption of materials (such as cement, sand) and construction energy consumption for later repair; compared with traditional sodium-based curing agents (carbon emissions of 383 kg / ton), the carbon emissions of the curing agent of the present application are only 340-348 kg / ton, close to that of blank concrete (337 kg / ton), and due to the extended service life, the carbon emissions throughout the life cycle can be further reduced. In addition, the curing agent can be stored stably at room temperature for more than 6 months (nano-capsule integrity rate ≥95%), reducing material waste during storage and meeting the green building concept of low carbon and high efficiency.
[0150] 5. Traditional surface curing agents need to be sprayed after concrete pouring, increasing construction procedures and costs, and are easily affected by construction environment (such as temperature, humidity). The curing agent of the present application can be directly incorporated into the existing concrete production process: the curing agent is added in liquid form during the concrete mixing stage, without the need to change the existing "dry mixing-liquid mixing-homogenization" production process of commercial concrete; the viscosity of the curing agent is controlled at 15-50 mPa・s, which can be uniformly mixed with the concrete mixture without affecting the construction operations such as pouring and vibrating; only 7-28 days of curing is required in a natural environment with a temperature of 20-30℃ and a humidity of ≥70%, without the need for special curing equipment, which is suitable for most construction site scenarios. This "mix and use" feature can directly interface with existing concrete mixing stations and construction systems, reducing promotion costs and being suitable for large-scale applications.
[0151] 6. The concrete of the present application can cover a variety of high-demand scenarios due to its comprehensive advantages of "wear resistance, dust-free, environmental protection, and strong adaptability":
[0152] Industrial plants: They can withstand the impact of heavy equipment and wear from material handling, and their low dust emission characteristics meet the cleanliness standards of workshops.
[0153] Warehousing and logistics: Withstands high-frequency reciprocating friction from forklifts, the wear-resistant layer is not easily damaged, and reduces the impact of ground maintenance on logistics efficiency;
[0154] Underground parking lot: High compressive strength can bear the weight of vehicles, and low water absorption rate (1.1% to 1.6%) can reduce sanding caused by groundwater infiltration;
[0155] Commercial facilities: The surface has a Mohs hardness of 6-7 and strong scratch resistance, which can maintain long-term beauty and reduce the frequency of renovation.
[0156] Compared with traditional floor materials, the present invention does not require adjustment of the core formula for different scenarios. It can adapt to the needs by only fine-tuning the dosage of the curing agent, and has the flexibility of multiple uses of one material.
[0157] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
