Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of concrete processing technology, specifically to a fiber-reinforced crack-resistant and impermeable concrete material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Concrete, as one of the most widely used structural materials in modern civil engineering, has a decisive impact on structural safety and durability due to its crack resistance and impermeability. With the increasing demands for durability in underground engineering, high-rise buildings, water conservancy facilities, and marine structures, the problems of easy cracking and high permeability in traditional ordinary concrete have become increasingly apparent, prompting crack-resistant and impermeable concrete materials to become a key research and engineering application area. Currently, common methods for improving the crack resistance and impermeability of concrete mainly include inorganic chemical admixture technologies such as expansive agents, water-reducing agents, water-repellent agents, and fine mineral admixtures, as well as fiber reinforcement technology. Among these, fiber reinforcement methods, by introducing high-molecular or inorganic fibers such as steel fibers, polypropylene fibers, basalt fibers, and PVA fibers into concrete, can effectively inhibit the initiation and propagation of microcracks, improving the ductility and crack resistance of concrete.

[0003] While the aforementioned materials and modification methods have improved the crack resistance and impermeability of concrete to some extent, existing technologies still have several limitations. Conventional fibers tend to agglomerate in concrete, resulting in uneven dispersion. Furthermore, some fibers have weak interfacial bonding with the cement matrix, making it difficult to achieve the expected reinforcement effect on concrete. In addition, although adding fibers to concrete can inhibit crack formation in the early stages and improve the tensile and flexural mechanical properties of concrete, it cannot repair existing cracks in concrete. The seepage channels persist, leading to a decrease in the overall impermeability of concrete. Moreover, the impermeability performance of fibers depends on the physical barrier of the fiber structure rather than chemical sealing, resulting in limited long-term service stability.

[0004] To address this technical deficiency, a solution is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fiber-reinforced crack-resistant and impermeable concrete material and its preparation method, in order to solve the technical problem that the crack resistance and impermeability of concrete materials in the prior art need to be further improved.

[0006] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solution: a fiber-reinforced crack-resistant and impermeable concrete material, comprising the following components by weight: 80-100 parts cement, 3-6 parts modified fiber, 6-12 parts modified capsule, 250-300 parts aggregate and 30-50 parts auxiliary materials;

[0007] The cement is silicate cement, and the aggregate is composed of coarse aggregate and fine aggregate in a mass ratio of 2-4:3-5. The coarse aggregate is crushed stone of 5-20mm, and the fine aggregate is quartz sand of 1-4mm. The auxiliary materials are composed of water-reducing agent, curing agent and dispersant in a mass ratio of 1-2:2-4:6-8. The water-reducing agent is polycarboxylate water-reducing agent, the curing agent is diethylenetriamine, and the dispersant is water.

[0008] Furthermore, the modified capsule is prepared by the following steps:

[0009] A1. Place urea and formaldehyde aqueous solution in a reaction vessel and stir. Add triethanolamine to adjust the pH to 8-9. Heat the reaction vessel to 65-75℃ and keep it at this temperature for 60-90 minutes to obtain a mixed solution.

[0010] The reaction principle for preparing the mixture is as follows:

[0011] During the reaction, under alkaline heating conditions, the carbonyl carbon of formaldehyde is nucleophilically attacked by the amino group of urea to generate hydroxymethyl urea intermediate. The methyl groups further undergo condensation and dehydration with each other or with other urea molecules to generate cross-linked structures such as C–N–C or C–NH–CH2–NH–C. The system gradually becomes viscous and forms a milky white prepolymer mixture.

[0012] A2. Place the modified epoxy monomer, sodium dodecyl sulfonate and deionized water in a reaction vessel and stir at room temperature for 30-60 min. Add the mixture and stir at room temperature for 15-30 min. Add resorcinol solution and add dilute hydrochloric acid to adjust the pH to 3-4. Heat the reaction vessel to 55-65℃ and keep it at that temperature for 2-4 h. Post-process to obtain the modified capsule precursor.

[0013] The reaction principle for preparing modified capsule precursors is as follows:

[0014] During the reaction, the modified epoxy monomer is stirred in the presence of an emulsifier to form a stable emulsion. Dilute hydrochloric acid is added to adjust the reaction system to be acidic, which promotes further condensation and cross-linking of urea-formaldehyde resin and deposits it at the oil-water interface to form a solid microcapsule structure. Resorcinol acts as a co-crosslinking agent to enhance the rigidity and thermal stability of the urea-formaldehyde resin wall material. Sodium chloride changes the ionic strength of the aqueous phase, which helps the microcapsule structure to form a dense nucleation. The result is a modified capsule precursor with a core material of modified epoxy monomer and a shell of cross-linked urea-formaldehyde resin.

[0015] A3. The modified capsule precursor, 3,3,3-trifluoropropyltriethoxysilane, ethanol and deionized water were placed in a reaction vessel and stirred. The reaction vessel was heated to 45-55℃, and an ammonia solution was added. The reaction was kept at this temperature for 2-4 hours, and the modified capsules were obtained after post-treatment.

[0016] The reaction principle for the preparation of modified capsules is as follows:

[0017] During the reaction, under alkaline conditions, the siloxane bonds of 3,3,3-trifluoropropyltriethoxysilane hydrolyze into silanols, which then undergo a condensation reaction with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the modified capsule precursor to obtain modified capsules modified with silane coupling agents.

[0018] Further, in step A1, the ratio of urea to formaldehyde aqueous solution is 2-4g:15-20mL, and the concentration of formaldehyde aqueous solution is 37-40wt%; in step A2, the ratio of modified epoxy monomer, sodium dodecyl sulfonate, deionized water, mixed solution, and resorcinol solution is 5-10g:0.5-1.5g:80-120mL:20-25mL:100-120mL, the resorcinol solution is composed of resorcinol, sodium chloride, and deionized water in a ratio of 2-4g:1-2g:80-100mL, the concentration of dilute hydrochloric acid is 0.5-1mol / L, and the post-treatment step includes: after the reaction is completed, waiting for the reaction system to cool to a certain temperature. At room temperature, filter under vacuum. Wash the filter cake 2-4 times with deionized water and ethanol, transfer it to an oven at 50-60℃, and dry it to constant weight to obtain the modified capsule precursor. In step A3, the ratio of the modified capsule precursor, 3,3,3-trifluoropropyltriethoxysilane, ethanol, deionized water, and ammonia solution is 4-6g:1-2g:50-70mL:5-10mL:2-4mL, and the concentration of the ammonia solution is 50-70wt%. The post-processing steps include: after the reaction is completed, wait for the reaction system to cool to room temperature, filter under vacuum, wash the filter cake 2-4 times with deionized water and ethanol, transfer it to an oven at 50-60℃, and dry it to constant weight to obtain the modified capsules.

[0019] Furthermore, the dosage ratio of the modified epoxy monomer is:

[0020] B1. Tris(2-aminoethyl)amine, 5-hydroxyfurfural and ethanol were placed in a reaction vessel and stirred. The reaction vessel was heated to 70-80℃ and kept at this temperature for 2-4 hours. After post-treatment, intermediate I was obtained.

[0021] B2. Place epichlorohydrin, tetrabutylammonium bisulfate and N,N-dimethylformamide in a nitrogen-protected reactor and stir. Slowly add intermediate I. During the addition process, maintain the reaction system temperature at 20-25℃ and keep the reaction at this temperature for 4-6 hours. Add sodium hydroxide aqueous solution and keep the reaction at this temperature for 1-2 hours. Post-treatment yields the modified epoxy monomer.

[0022] The reaction formula for preparing modified epoxy monomers is as follows:

[0023]

[0024] The reaction principle for the preparation of modified epoxy monomers is as follows:

[0025] During the reaction, under heating conditions, the three amino groups of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine undergo condensation reactions with the aldehyde group of 5-hydroxyfurfural to generate intermediate I with an imine structure. Furthermore, the hydroxyl group in 5-hydroxyfurfural forms an alkoxy anion under alkaline conditions, which undergoes a ring-opening reaction with the epoxy group on the epichlorohydrin molecule. After the addition of sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, the terminal –CH2Cl group undergoes further intramolecular cyclization under alkaline conditions to obtain a modified epoxy monomer.

[0026] Further, in step B1, the ratio of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine, 5-hydroxyfurfural, and ethanol is 4-6 g: 2-4 g: 100-120 mL. The post-processing steps include: after the reaction is complete, the reaction system is cooled to room temperature, filtered, the filter cake is washed 2-4 times with ethanol and deionized water, transferred to an oven at 50-60°C, and dried to constant weight to obtain intermediate I; in step B2, the epichlorohydrin, tetrabutylammonium bisulfate, N,N-dimethylformamide, The ratio of intermediate I to sodium hydroxide aqueous solution is 6-8g:0.2-0.4g:80-100mL:4-6g:100-150mL, and the concentration of sodium hydroxide aqueous solution is 50-60wt%. The post-treatment steps include: after the reaction is completed, adding 80-100mL of diethyl ether, washing 2-4 times, adding deionized water, washing 2-4 times, transferring the organic phase to a rotary evaporator at a temperature of 90-100℃, and evaporating until no liquid is collected to obtain the modified epoxy monomer.

[0027] Furthermore, the modified carbon fiber is prepared by the following steps:

[0028] C1. Place carbon fiber and nitric acid solution in a reaction vessel and stir. Heat the reaction vessel to 65-75℃ and keep it at this temperature for 1-2 hours. Post-treatment yields acidified carbon fiber.

[0029] The reaction principle for preparing acidified carbon fiber is as follows:

[0030] During the reaction, under heating conditions, nitric acid acts as an oxidant, causing the carbon atoms on the surface of the carbon fiber to lose electrons and generate carboxyl groups, thus obtaining acidified carbon fiber.

[0031] C2. Place acidified carbon fiber, 2-aminoterephthalic acid, zirconium tetrachloride and N,N-dimethylformamide in a reaction vessel, heat the reaction vessel to 75-85℃, keep the reaction at this temperature for 6-8 hours, and then process to obtain ammoniated carbon fiber.

[0032] The reaction principle for preparing ammoniated carbon fiber is as follows:

[0033] During the reaction, zirconium tetrachloride hydrolyzes to Zr in N,N-dimethylformamide. 4 The two carboxyl groups in ⁺,2-aminoterephthalic acid and the carboxyl groups on the surface of acidified carbon fibers react with Zr.4 ⁺ Coordination occurs, forming Zr6O4(OH)4(CO2) 12 With a three-dimensional topological structure as the core, under hydrothermal conditions, the metal-organic framework is grown on the surface of carbon fiber, and ammoniated carbon fiber is obtained.

[0034] C3. Place ammoniated carbon fiber and acetone in a reaction vessel and stir. Slowly add maleic anhydride solution and react at room temperature for 1-2 hours. Add sodium acetate, acetic anhydride and triethylamine. Heat the reaction vessel to 55-65℃ and keep it at that temperature for 10-12 hours. Post-treatment yields modified fiber.

[0035] The reaction principle for the preparation of modified fibers is as follows:

[0036] During the reaction, the amino groups of the ammoniated carbon fiber undergo a nucleophilic addition reaction with maleic anhydride. After the addition of sodium acetate, acetic anhydride and triethylamine, the intermediate is further dehydrated and cyclized to form a maleimide structure, thus obtaining the modified fiber.

[0037] Further, in step C1, the ratio of carbon fiber to nitric acid solution is 5-10g:100-150mL, the nitric acid solution is a 50-60wt% aqueous nitric acid solution, and the post-processing steps include: after the reaction is completed, the reaction system is cooled to room temperature, filtered, the filter cake is washed with deionized water until neutral, transferred to an oven at 90-100℃, and dried to constant weight to obtain acidified carbon fiber;

[0038] Further, in step C2, the ratio of the acidified carbon fiber, 2-aminoterephthalic acid, zirconium tetrachloride and N,N-dimethylformamide is 5-10g:0.5-1g:0.5-1g:150-200mL. The post-processing steps include: after the reaction is completed, the reaction system is cooled to room temperature, filtered, the filter cake is washed with ethanol 2-4 times, transferred to an oven at 90-100℃, and dried to constant weight to obtain ammoniated carbon fiber.

[0039] Further, in step C3, the ratio of the ammoniated carbon fiber, acetone, maleic anhydride solution, sodium acetate, acetic anhydride, and triethylamine is 10-15g:50-100mL:40-60mL:0.5-1g:4-6mL:2-4mL. The maleic anhydride solution is a 1-1.5mol / L maleic anhydride-acetone solution.

[0040] A method for preparing a fiber-reinforced crack-resistant and impermeable concrete material includes the following steps:

[0041] S1. Add cement, aggregate and modified capsules to the mixer and mix for 2-4 minutes to obtain the mixture;

[0042] S2. Add the mixture and auxiliary materials to the mixer, mix at low speed for 1-2 minutes, mix at high speed for 1-2 minutes, add the modified fiber, and mix at high speed for 2-4 minutes to obtain the concrete material.

[0043] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0044] 1. This invention introduces carboxyl groups into carbon fibers through acidification treatment, and further synthesizes a metal-organic framework containing amino groups on the acidified carbon fibers via a hydrothermal method. Further post-synthetic modification of the metal-organic framework yields modified fibers with a maleimide-modified surface. These modified fibers can undergo a Diels-Alder reaction with modified epoxy monomers released from modified capsules at crack locations, generating a stable covalent cross-linked network. This forms a new network structure locally within the crack, effectively sealing the crack and blocking media penetration, restoring the mechanical properties of concrete, and improving the crack resistance and impermeability of concrete materials. After surface functionalization, the roughness of the fiber is significantly increased, which not only improves its dispersibility in concrete but also enhances its mechanical embedding and interfacial bonding with the cement matrix. The rough surface provides more micro-protrusions and pores, which is conducive to the adhesion of cement hydration products and improves the density and stability of the interfacial transition zone. At the same time, the rough structure promotes the effective transfer of stress between the fiber and the matrix, significantly improving the fiber's pull-out resistance and overall crack resistance. Combined with the chemical reactivity of the surface functional groups, a dual reinforcement mechanism of physical embedding and chemical bonding is achieved, effectively improving the mechanical properties and crack resistance and impermeability of concrete.

[0045] 2. This invention prepares modified epoxy monomers through phenolic condensation and epoxy group end-capping. A modified capsule precursor, using polyurea-formaldehyde resin as the wall material and the modified epoxy monomer as the core material, is then prepared via interfacial polymerization. The modified capsule precursor is further modified with a silane coupling agent to obtain modified capsules. These modified capsules can rupture when concrete cracks form, releasing the epoxy monomers. The epoxy monomers react with the curing agent and the maleimide structure on the surface of the modified fibers to form a new reversible cross-linked network structure, thereby sealing the cracks and restoring structural strength, thus improving the crack resistance of the concrete. The modified capsules exhibit improved impermeability and mechanical properties. Furthermore, the trifluoropropyl groups on the exterior of the capsules possess low surface energy and strong hydrophobicity. After modification, the van der Waals forces and polar attraction between capsule particles can be effectively reduced, thereby inhibiting the agglomeration of capsules in the cement system and improving their fluidity and dispersion uniformity in the mixing system. When concrete curing specimens are subjected to external forces, the modified capsules can disperse local stress concentration at the microscale, slowing down the initiation of microcracks. This structure can reduce peak stress before the material cracks, delay crack formation, and improve the crack resistance, impermeability, and mechanical properties of concrete materials.

[0146] See Table 1 for specific data.

[0147] Table 1 - Performance Test Data for Each Sample

[0148]

[0149] Data Analysis:

[0150] Comparative analysis of the data in Table 1 reveals that the concrete material prepared by this invention, after curing, exhibits a permeability grade of P10, a water absorption rate of 4.3%, a splitting tensile strength of 3.6 MPa, and a flexural strength of 8.5 MPa. All these data are superior to those of the comparative example. This invention achieves this by acidifying carbon fibers to introduce carboxyl groups, and then synthesizing a metal-organic framework containing amino groups on the acidified carbon fibers via a hydrothermal method. Post-synthetic modification of the metal-organic framework yields modified fibers with a maleimide structure. A modified epoxy monomer is prepared through phenolic condensation and epoxy group end-capping. A modified capsule precursor, using polyurea-formaldehyde resin as the wall material and the modified epoxy monomer as the core material, is then prepared via interfacial polymerization. Further modification of the modified capsule precursor with a silane coupling agent yields modified capsules. Adding modified capsules and modified fibers during the preparation of concrete materials not only improves their crack resistance and permeability but also enhances their mechanical properties.
