Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of geopolymer concrete preparation, and particularly relates to a geopolymer concrete material, a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Geopolymer, short for geopolymer, is a new type of high-performance inorganic polymer. Compared with ordinary Portland cement, there is no calcium silicate hydration reaction in the reaction process, and the final product is mainly composed of ionic bond and covalent bond, supplemented by van der Waals bond. It not only can reduce the emission of harmful gas, but also has excellent performance in all aspects.
[0003] Although the geopolymer has good high temperature resistance and environmental protection, and the raw material sources are widely available and the production energy consumption is low, the compressive strength of the geopolymer is low in a short time under the condition of room temperature curing, and high temperature curing can accelerate the reaction, but it is easy to cause surface cracking, which affects the rapid construction and cannot guarantee the mechanical strength.
[0004] The conventional alkali activator is often used to activate the silicate and aluminate raw materials in the preparation method of the geopolymer concrete. In terms of mechanical strength, the raw materials such as fly ash and slag have a complex pore structure, and micrometer-sized macropores and nanometer-sized mesopores coexist. The reaction product is difficult to uniformly fill the pores, which weakens the matrix density. In addition, the gel network generated by the geopolymer reaction has defects, poor impermeability, and harmful ions easily invade, which accelerates the material degradation, reduces the mechanical properties, and affects the long-term service performance.
[0005] The durability of concrete not only determines whether it can be applied in harsh environments, but also determines the service life of the structure. Taking municipal engineering as an example (such as soundproof wall columns, electric poles, etc.), on the one hand, it needs to withstand the influence of rain, strong wind and other harsh environments while meeting the basic bearing requirements, on the other hand, in the production of ordinary concrete, the process of producing cement will emit a large amount of carbon dioxide, and a standard electric pole needs to consume hundreds of kilograms of cement, so the large-scale use of ordinary concrete electric poles aggravates the carbon emission pressure.

[0080] In addition, the preparation method of the modified glass microbeads is:
[0081] Preparation of the pretreated glass microbeads: 110 g of glass microbeads were immersed in a composite acid solution (3 wt% of hydrochloric acid and 0.1 wt% of oxalic acid) for 1.8 h, washed with water until neutral, and then dried.

[0093] The difference between it and Example 1 is that the metakaolin is not modified, i.e., the modified metakaolin in Example 1 is replaced with an equal amount of metakaolin.
[0094] It should be noted that in the preparation of modified glass beads of the examples and comparative examples, the 1wt% dopamine hydrochloride solution therein is Tris-HCl buffer solution, pH=8.5, that is, 1 gram of dopamine hydrochloride solute is contained in 100g of the solution. The Tris-HCl buffer solution is a buffer system prepared from tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris) and hydrochloric acid, and the pH of the solution is stabilized at 8.5 by adjusting the proportion of the two, and this pH condition is conducive to the self-polymerization reaction of dopamine hydrochloride; the entire solution system is a reaction medium formed by dissolving dopamine hydrochloride in Tris-HCl buffer solution (pH 8.5).
[0095] In the above examples and comparative examples, the chemical composition of the metakaolin used is shown in Table 1.
[0096] Table 1 Chemical composition of metakaolin
[0097]
[0098] The slag used is S105 grade slag in accordance with Chinese standard GB / T 18046-2017, provided by Longze Water Purification Material Co., Ltd. in Gongyi City. The average particle size is 7.264µm, and the chemical composition of the slag is shown in Table 2.
[0099] Table 2 Chemical composition of slag
[0100]
[0101] In addition, the azodicarbonamide used is VAE of model 5044N of German Wacker brand, which appears as white powder; the sodium silicate used is powdered instant sodium silicate provided by a company in Xi'an, Shaanxi, with a molar ratio of SiO2 to Na2O of 2.86, that is, the modulus of sodium silicate is 2.86.
[0102] In addition, the glass beads used are provided by Shenzhen Tongcheng New Material Technology Co., Ltd., with a bulk density of 0.75g / cm 3 , a crystal structure of amorphous state, and an activity coefficient of 115% at 28 days (calculated according to Chinese standard GB / T 1596-2017 fly ash activity). The average particle size is 0.919µm, and the main components are SiO2 and Al2O3, with mass fractions of 56.51% and 24.53% respectively.
[0103] The geopolymer concrete materials (hereinafter referred to as concrete) prepared in Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were tested.
[0104] Expansion rate test:
[0105] According to GB / T 23439-2017 "Concrete Expanding Agent", the expansion rate is calculated according to the following formula:
[0106]
[0107] In the formula, ε is the limited expansion rate (%) of the measured age (28d), L1 is the length measurement value (mm) of the test body at the measured age, L is the initial length measurement value (mm) of the test body, and L0 is the reference length of the test body, which is 100 mm.
[0108] The test results are shown in Table 3.
[0109] Table 3: Expansion rates of geopolymer concrete materials prepared in Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-3
[0110]
[0111] Example 2 lacks ethylene-vinyl acetate (VAE) compared to Example 1, the interfacial adhesion decreases, the azodicarbonamide (AC) foaming is insufficiently constrained by the matrix, the expansion inhomogeneity increases, and the porosity slightly increases due to uncontrolled expansion. Example 3 reduces the amount of modified glass beads compared to Example 1, resulting in insufficient pore filling, and the proportion of mixed modifier is reduced, foaming is reduced, the internal pores of the concrete are not effectively filled, and the expansion driving force is insufficient, resulting in high porosity and low expansion rate.
[0112] In Example 4, compared to Example 1, the total amount of modified metakaolin and slag increases, more silicate gel is generated by reaction, the matrix is denser, the porosity is reduced, and the proportion of mixed modifier increases (close to 1%), the expansion driving force is enhanced, so the expansion rate is not much different from that of Example 1.
[0113] In Example 5, the proportion of molybdenum disulfide in the modified glass beads is reduced, and the proportion of sodium silicate in the activator is increased, the reaction rate is accelerated, local heat release may cause uneven decomposition of AC, and the expansion dispersion increases relatively.
[0114] In Example 6, the amount of modified glass beads is increased compared to Example 1, but the proportion of mixed modifier is consistent with Example 1, which cannot match the matrix constraint brought by high microbead filling, resulting in some pores not being effectively regulated; at the same time, the alkalinity of the activator is increased, the structure of the reaction product is loose, and the porosity of the concrete is increased.
[0115] The unmodified glass beads in Comparative Example 1 have poor interfacial bonding with the matrix, so the interfacial porosity increases accordingly, the expansion rate is high and dispersed, and the porosity increases significantly; Comparative Example 2 does not add mixed modifier based on Comparative Example 1, and the expansion rate is greatly increased; Comparative Example 3 does not modify the metakaolin, resulting in a decrease in active sites and insufficient reaction with slag, and the porosity increases.
[0116] The relevant properties of the modified glass microspheres were tested.
[0117] Regarding the elemental dissolution and leaching of modified glass microspheres (hereinafter referred to as GB) in alkaline solution: 10g of GB powder was added to 40mL of 4.5mol / L NaOH solution, mixed thoroughly, and then left to stand at room temperature. After soaking for 12h, 24h, 48h, and 72h respectively, the solid and liquid were separated using a 0.1μm nylon microporous membrane. To meet the sample concentration requirements of Agilent 720ES inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), the solution was diluted to two different degrees (10-fold and 1-fold, respectively). The diluted solutions were used to determine Si. 4+ Al 3+ and Ca 2+ The concentration of elements dissolved and the concentration of elements leached (R) l With leaching change rate V r Calculate according to the following formulas respectively:
[0118]
[0119] In the formula, R l The leaching concentration is t (mg / g), t is the dilution factor, and C is the concentration of the leaching solution. x V represents the element leaching concentration (mg / L), V represents the volume of the diluent used (L), and M represents the mass of GB used (g).
[0120]
[0121] In the formula, V r R represents the leaching change rate (%). i (i=12h, 24h, 48h, 72h) represents the concentration (mg / g) of element leaching at hour i, R N This represents the elemental concentration (mg / g) in the NaOH solution.
[0122] See Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 GB in NaOH solution Si 4+ Al 3+ and Ca 2+ The leaching concentration changes over time. It can be seen that within 72 hours, Si... 4+ And Al 3+The leaching concentration of GB increases linearly with time, meaning that GB can provide more Si and Al monomers—[SiO4] and [AlO4]—in the polymerization reaction of geopolymer concrete, and can also promote the formation of more Si-O-Al polymer bonds. These polymer bonds will eventually condense into a three-dimensional network of polyaluminosilicate gel, which will then gradually solidify and harden into geopolymer material.
[0123] Figure 3 The leaching rates of Si, Al, and Ca ions in GB in NaOH solution at different times represent the leaching changes.
[0124] Taking 72 hours as an example, Si 4+ V r The variation range was 43.1% to 307.17%, while Al 3+ V r The variation range was 21.56% to 94.93%, indicating that silicon was more easily leached than aluminum in a highly alkaline medium. Based on the above formula, the leaching concentrations of calcium ions at 12h, 24h, 48h, and 72h were 0.0064 mg / g, 0.0022 mg / g, 0.0036 mg / g, and 0.019 mg / g, respectively, which were relatively low.
[0125] The effect of the amount of modified glass microspheres added was tested.
[0126] The modified glass microspheres were named GB, and geopolymer concrete materials with different GB contents were prepared according to the preparation method of Example 1. According to the GB addition ratio, they were named GB-0, GB-2%, GB-4%, GB-6%, GB-8% and GB-10%, respectively.
[0127] The GB addition ratio is the proportion of modified glass microspheres to the total mass of modified metakaolin, slag, modified glass microspheres, activator solution and mixed modifier. For example, in Example 1, the GB addition ratio is 5.38%.
[0128] See Figure 4 As shown, it is a SEM image of GB-0 and GB-2% concrete after 28 days of curing.
[0129] Figure 4 (a) Modified metakaolin (MK) particles can be seen in GB-0, which are embedded in the matrix in a multi-layered structure; Figure 4 (b) It can be seen that GB-2% has spherical traces of GB falling off due to cracks, and it is clear that the incorporation of GB makes the whole system more compact, which is beneficial to improving the strength of concrete, indicating that GB has a pore filling effect. Figure 4 In (b), SL stands for slag, and "Steading GB" means stable modified glass microspheres.
[0130] Figure 5 The compressive strength of geopolymer concrete materials after curing for 1, 3, 7 and 28 days is shown in the figure for different GB contents.
[0131] As can be seen, under the same curing age, the compressive strength of concrete shows a trend of first increasing and then decreasing with the increase of GB content, and this trend becomes more significant with increasing age; when the GB content is 4%, the compressive strength reaches its maximum value at all ages. Compared with GB content of 0, except for the similar strength at 1 day, the strength at 3, 7, and 28 days with GB-4% increased by 10.38%, 12.09%, and 24.16%, respectively, indicating that the addition of modified glass microspheres (GB) enhances the compressive strength of concrete; when the GB content exceeds 4%, the strength begins to show a decreasing trend. Although modified glass microspheres can enhance reactivity, excessive addition will lead to a decrease in the bulk density of concrete, thereby reducing strength.
[0132] See Figure 6 As shown, pores can be divided into three types: harmless pores with a diameter of less than 20 nm, relatively harmless pores with a diameter between 20 and 50 nm, and harmful pores with a diameter of more than 50 nm. Figure 6 The percentages of harmless pores, relatively harmful pores, and harmful pores in geopolymer concrete at different GB contents are shown. Compared to GB-0%, GB-2% significantly increases the proportion of harmless pores smaller than 20 nm and correspondingly reduces the proportion of harmful pores larger than 50 nm. This phenomenon gradually weakens with increasing GB content until the opposite trend is observed when the dosage exceeds 6%. This is mainly because the potential filling effect and gel enrichment effect of GB reduce the number of harmful pores larger than 50 nm, and a smaller number of harmful pores may be one of the main factors contributing to enhanced mechanical properties. Furthermore, GB has almost no effect on relatively harmless pores between 20 and 50 nm; the proportion of harmful pores larger than 50 nm shows a trend of first decreasing and then increasing with increasing GB content, indicating that the effect is better when the GB content of modified glass microspheres is 4-6%.
[0133] When the amorphous or low-crystallinity silica phase in the aggregate is coupled with water by OH- ions from alkali hydroxide in the matrix pores, an alkali-silica reaction (ASR) occurs:
[0134] The dissolution of reactive silica is shown in the following formula:
[0135] (1)
[0136] pH > 13 and the solution is rich in Na + or K + When ions are present, ASR gel is formed, and the reaction formula is shown below:
[0137] (2)
[0138] (3)
[0139] (4)
[0140] pH<13, the high reactivity of silica and Ca 2+ The dissolution rate of ions will significantly enhance the pozzolanic effect, thus promoting the formation of additional C-S-H or C-A-S-H gel in the system. When PH>13, the high alkaline environment will destroy the dissolution equilibrium between reactive silica and Ca 2+ , making the amorphous silica activity further enhanced (equation 2) and easily reacting to generate ions (equation 3), resulting in the system more easily generating harmful ASR gel. The accumulation of this gel will eventually produce internal stress, causing structural swelling and deformation, cracking, and reducing the durability of the system.
[0141] The characteristic band of C-A-S-H gel is usually in the range of 950-980 cm -1 From Figure 7 it can be seen that the most obvious bands appear at 970.89 cm -1 and 432.50 cm -1 , respectively, of which 970 cm -1 is a typical band of glassy aluminosilicate materials. Specifically, this band may be related to the vibration of Si-O-Si bonds. With the increase of GB content, the peak at 970 cm -1 shows a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, and when the GB content is 4%, the peak reaches a maximum, which is consistent with the mechanical performance test, indicating that the appropriate GB incorporation will promote the formation of Si-O-Si bonds. The bond energy of Si-O-Si is higher than that of Si-O-Al, and the formation speed is slower than that of Si-O-Al, which is also an important reason why the 28-day mechanical performance is significantly higher than that of other groups when the GB content is 4%.
