Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of waterproofing agent technology, specifically to an aqueous silane waterproofing agent and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Among existing building waterproofing materials, organic solvent-based waterproofing agents (such as paraffin and asphalt-based agents) contain large amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which easily cause environmental pollution and health hazards during construction and use, and have been gradually replaced by water-based environmentally friendly waterproofing agents. However, although early water-based silane waterproofing agents had the advantage of low VOCs, their waterproofing performance was often limited by the following problems: Insufficient permeability: The interfacial bonding force between silane molecules and the substrate (such as concrete, brick and stone) is weak, making it difficult to form a deep-penetrating waterproof layer; Poor durability: When exposed to ultraviolet rays, moisture or temperature changes for a long time, the coating is prone to aging and peeling. Low reaction efficiency: Silane hydrolysis and condensation reactions require strict conditions (such as pH and temperature). Traditional formulations do not optimize the synergistic effect of catalysts and solvents, resulting in unstable film quality. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The problem with existing technologies is that conventional solvent-based waterproofing agents for building walls contain a large amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which can easily cause environmental pollution and health hazards during construction and use. To address the above technical problems, this invention provides a water-based silane waterproofing agent, which, by weight, comprises the following raw material components: 100 parts of long-chain alkylsiloxane; 30-200 parts of silane coupling agent; 17-83 parts of acidic catalyst; Solvent: 50-300 parts.
[0004] Preferably, the long-chain alkylsiloxane includes one or both of octyltrimethoxysilane or hexadecyltrimethoxysilane.
[0005] Preferably, the silane coupling agent is one or both of KH550 and KH540.
[0006] Preferably, the acidic catalyst is one or both of formic acid or acetic acid aqueous solution.
[0007] Preferably, the solvent is isopropanol or butanol.
[0008] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) The present invention uses a water-based system to replace the traditional organic solvent-based waterproofing agent. The VOC content can be controlled at ≤50g / L, which is much lower than that of paraffin or asphalt waterproofing materials (usually VOC≥500g / L). This effectively reduces the release of harmful substances during construction and use, and meets the requirements of green building and environmental protection regulations. (2) The hydrophobic segments of long-chain alkylsiloxanes (such as octyl / hexadecyltrimethoxysilane) in the waterproofing agent of the present invention can penetrate deep into the micropores of building substrates (concrete, masonry) (penetration depth ≥3mm) to form a physical water-blocking layer; (3) The amino or epoxy groups of the silane coupling agent (KH550 / KH540) in the waterproofing agent of the present invention react with Si-OH on the substrate surface to generate covalent bonds (Si-O-Si), which significantly improves the adhesion strength between the coating and the substrate (adhesion ≥1.5MPa). (4) The acidic catalyst (formic acid / acetic acid) in the waterproofing agent of the present invention optimizes the hydrolysis-condensation reaction rate, forming a denser three-dimensional siloxane network, resulting in excellent waterproofing effect; (5) The water-based waterproofing agent obtained in this invention is diluted to a concentration of 5-10% with warm water at 60-70℃. This accelerates the hydrolysis of silane (endothermic reaction) and avoids uncontrolled solvent evaporation caused by high temperature, ensuring the uniformity of the coating (leveling time after coating ≤10min). The diluted solution is applicable to various construction methods such as spraying, rolling or brushing, and the coverage efficiency of complex wall surfaces (such as cracks and uneven surfaces) is improved by ≥30%. (6) The isopropanol / butanol component in the waterproofing agent of the present invention has excellent compatibility with the silane component, which solves the precipitation problem caused by traditional alcohol solvents and has excellent storage stability; (7) Compared with imported similar products, the raw material cost of the water-based waterproofing agent obtained by the present invention is reduced by about 25%, and no special equipment (such as high temperature oven) is required for construction. The labor cost is reduced by 15-20%, which gives it significant market competitiveness. Detailed Implementation
