Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of building materials technology, and in particular to a fluidized solidified soil curing membrane and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Fluidized solidified soil, a novel green building material, is composed of engineering waste or slurry, a curing agent, and water. It boasts advantages such as high fluidity, convenient construction, and low cost, and is widely used in engineering applications such as trenching, foundation pits, and roadbed backfilling. However, it suffers from cracking during its early hardening stage, especially under high temperatures, direct sunlight, or strong winds, where the cracking rate can reach 30% to 50%. This not only affects the appearance quality of the fluidized solidified soil but also reduces its strength and durability, ultimately impacting the overall quality and service life of the project.
[0003] The inherent mechanism of easy cracking of fluidized solidified soil mainly includes two aspects: (1) the surface evaporation rate is significantly higher than the internal bleeding rate of fluidized solidified soil, resulting in a large water evaporation gradient; (2) the surface temperature of fluidized solidified soil is 25-35℃ higher than that of the interior, resulting in a large temperature stress gradient. At present, strengthening maintenance is the main means to reduce the cracking rate of fluidized solidified soil, but the existing maintenance methods still have certain defects. For example, water covering maintenance will dilute the surface ion concentration of fluidized solidified soil, affecting the surface hardening speed and strength growth rate, and reducing its ability to resist plastic shrinkage cracks. The water retention of geotextile covering maintenance is poor, and it cannot suppress water evaporation. The surface humidity gradient of fluidized solidified soil is large, and the crack control effect is limited. The plastic film covering maintenance is easy to form a closed space, which leads to the accumulation of internal vapor pressure of fluidized solidified soil under high temperature and sun exposure, forming a high stress gradient that causes cracking. At the same time, condensation water impact is easy to form on the inner wall of the film, which aggravates the loss of surface fluidized solidified soil slurry. In addition, plastic film is easy to be damaged during use and needs to be replaced in time, which increases the maintenance cost and workload.
[0004] Currently, existing technologies lack targeted solutions to the aforementioned practical engineering challenges. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a special curing membrane for fluidized solidified soil that can dynamically regulate moisture migration and buffer temperature stress.

[0037] Step 2: Preparation of Water Molecule Release Layer
[0038] S1: By mass percentage, 20-30% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), 15-25% polyethylene glycol / bentonite intercalation complex, 0.5-1.5% trisodium citrate, 1-2.5% glycerol, and the balance being deionized water.

[0051] The present invention further provides the application of the above-mentioned fluidized solidified soil curing membrane in the curing of fluidized solidified soil.
[0052] This invention is based on the two core mechanisms of cracking in fluidized solidified soil (moisture evaporation gradient and temperature stress accumulation), and achieves precise control through a dual-layer functional structure. Its basic principle is as follows:
[0053] (1) The synergistic effect of the reflective insulation layer on temperature stress suppression.
[0054] Firstly, rutile titanium dioxide, as the main functional filler, has a high refractive index and extremely strong reflection and scattering capabilities for sunlight in the 400–2500 nm wavelength band (accounting for more than 95% of the total solar radiation energy), with a reflectivity ≥85%. Its nanoscale particle size (30±2 nm) ensures the best scattering effect in the visible light region, thereby directly reflecting most of the solar radiation energy back to the atmosphere, reducing heat accumulation from the source, and actually reducing the surface temperature of fluidized solidified soil by 16–23℃.
[0055] Secondly, after surface treatment, fumed silica forms a nanoporous aerogel network structure in the polymer matrix. Its inherent low thermal conductivity (≤0.03W / (m·K)) and the air trapped in the nanopores can effectively block heat transfer to the surface of the fluidized solidified soil, forming a highly efficient heat insulation barrier and inhibiting heat penetration from top to bottom.
[0056] Thirdly, the core-shell structured polyacrylate emulsion serves as the film-forming matrix and mechanical framework for the reflective heat insulation layer. The hard core (MMA / BA copolymer, Tg = 35℃) provides the coating with the necessary mechanical strength, wear resistance, and creep resistance, ensuring that the film is not easily damaged during construction and use, and can withstand certain wind loads. The soft shell (2-EHA / AA copolymer, Tg = 10℃) endows the coating with excellent flexibility and film-forming properties, enabling it to adapt to the minor deformations of the fluidized solidified soil base without cracking. The carboxyl groups (-COOH) in the shell not only provide emulsion stability but also act as coupling sites, tightly binding with the surfaces of fillers such as TiO2 and SiO2 through hydrogen bonds and other forces, significantly improving interfacial compatibility, preventing filler agglomeration and detachment, and ensuring the long-term stable function of the functional fillers.
[0057] Through the aforementioned synergistic mechanism, the designed reflective heat insulation layer reduces the temperature difference between the surface and interior of the fluidized solidified soil from 25–35℃ to ≤10℃, and reduces the temperature stress by about 70%, thereby effectively weakening the adverse effects of temperature stress on the cracking behavior of the fluidized solidified soil.
[0058] (2) The synergistic regulatory effect of the water molecule slow-release layer on the water gradient.
[0059] Firstly, while original sodium-based bentonite has a layered structure, its interlayer spacing is approximately 1.2–1.5 nm. Through a melt intercalation process, polyethylene glycol (PEG) molecular chains are inserted into the interlayer domains of bentonite, significantly expanding the interlayer spacing to 3.5–4.0 nm. This nanoscale space, expanded by PEG, constitutes a "nanoscale reservoir" and "channel" for storing and transporting water molecules. When the ambient humidity is >80%, water molecules in the environment are adsorbed into the interlayer domains of bentonite and the hydrophilic segments of PEG through capillary action and hydrogen bonding. The PEG chains hydrate and swell, further widening the interlayer spacing and locking a large amount of water within the nanoscale space. When the ambient humidity is <40%, the PEG segments dehydrate and shrink, narrowing the interlayer domains and "squeezing out" the stored water molecules, slowly releasing them to the surface of the fluidized solidified soil, maintaining its humidity. The design of this intercalation structure is one of the core elements of the water molecule slow-release layer design in this invention, because this intelligent response to humidity (hygroscopic absorption and release) depends entirely on the intercalation structure of PEG / bentonite. If no intercalation structure is formed, it is merely a physical mixture, where PEG is prone to migration and bentonite is prone to aggregation, making it impossible to form a stable, efficient and reversible nanoscale water storage unit.
[0060] Secondly, HPMC forms a hydrophilic three-dimensional network colloid, where numerous hydroxyl groups (-OH) adsorb and solidify a large amount of free water through hydrogen bonds, constituting a macroscopic "moisture reservoir." Its excellent water retention and high viscosity ensure that moisture does not evaporate rapidly, but rather is continuously supplied to the base layer at a slow rate (≥8h), suppressing the surface moisture evaporation rate of the fluidized solidified soil to 0.8 g / (m³). 2 ·h) and below.
[0061] Thirdly, trisodium citrate, as an environmentally friendly crosslinking agent, undergoes an esterification reaction between its carboxyl groups (-COOH) and the hydroxyl groups on the HPMC molecular chain during the heating and curing process, forming a stable covalent crosslinking network. This significantly improves the mechanical strength and wear resistance of the slow-release membrane in both dry and wet conditions, making it less prone to damage during construction and use. In addition, the crosslinking network limits the unlimited swelling of HPMC and bentonite when exposed to water, preventing the gel structure from being destroyed and ensuring the long-term stability of the structure and the durability of repeated moisture absorption and desorption cycles. At the same time, moderate crosslinking can regulate the diffusion rate of water molecules in the gel network, avoiding instantaneous release of water and achieving a smoother slow release.
[0062] Fourth, glycerol, as a small molecule plasticizer, forms hydrogen bonds with HPMC molecular chains through its hydroxyl groups, effectively weakening the hydrogen bonding between HPMC molecular chains and increasing the free volume and mobility between molecular chains. This makes the cured film soft and elastic, preventing it from becoming brittle and cracking due to drying or cross-linking, and ensuring that it can adhere well to the surface of the fluidized solidified soil. In addition, using glycerol as a plasticizer can effectively improve the rheology and film-forming properties of the slurry, which helps to form a dense, defect-free continuous film, which is the basis for achieving uniform moisture control.
[0063] Through the aforementioned synergistic mechanism, the designed water molecule slow-release layer reduces the ratio of surface water evaporation rate to internal water seepage rate of fluidized solidified soil from 3.2 to less than 1.1, thereby effectively weakening the adverse effects of the water evaporation gradient on the cracking behavior of fluidized solidified soil.
[0064] The present invention discloses the following technical effects:
[0065] This invention addresses the problem of easy cracking in the early hardening of fluidized solidified soil by providing a composite curing membrane. The curing membrane consists of a reflective heat insulation layer and a water molecule slow-release layer from the outside to the inside. It can achieve a surface cracking rate of ≤5% and a crack width of ≤0.1mm for fluidized solidified soil, which greatly solves the engineering pain point and difficulty of easy cracking of fluidized solidified soil, improves the appearance quality and durability of fluidized solidified soil, and improves the engineering quality and service life.

[0126] Example of effect verification:
[0127] Comparative Example 1
[0128] A 0.1mm PE plastic film is used for full-coverage curing.
[0129] Comparative Example 2
[0130] Using 400g / m 2 Polyester geotextile full-coverage maintenance method.
[0131] Comparative Example 3
[0132] The surface is continuously covered with water (5mm water depth) for curing.
[0133] Comparative Example 4
[0134] Full coverage maintenance was performed using only the water molecule slow-release monolayer membrane prepared in Example 1.
[0135] Comparative Example 5
[0136] Full coverage maintenance was performed using only the single-layer reflective heat insulation film prepared in Example 1.
[0137] Comparative Example 6
[0138] Same as Example 1, except that an equal amount of sodium-based bentonite is used instead of polyethylene glycol / bentonite intercalation compound.
[0139] Referring to GB / T 50082 "Standard for Test Methods of Long-Term Performance and Durability of Concrete", the cracking (cracking rate, maximum crack width) and water loss rate of the fluidized solidified soil of Examples 1-3 (composite curing membrane of the present invention) and Comparative Examples 1-5 (traditional curing method and single-layer membrane curing) were observed and recorded during the 3-day curing period. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0140] Table 1
[0141] Example 1 1.2 0.04 4.5 Example 2 4.8 0.09 7.6 Example 3 3.5 0.06 7.3 Comparative Example 1 37.3 1.3 36.5 Comparative Example 2 48.8 2.1 64.1 Comparative Example 3 26.4 0.8 - Comparative Example 4 17.6 0.15 21.2 Comparative Example 5 23.1 0.24 18.5 Comparative Example 6 10.5 0.12 13.1
[0142] The test data from Examples 1 to 3 show that the double-layer composite curing membrane provided by the present invention has excellent curing effect on fluidized solidified soil: the cracking rate is less than 5%, the maximum crack width is less than 0.1 mm, and the water loss rate after 72 hours is less than 8%, which can effectively solve the problem of easy cracking in the early hardening stage of fluidized solidified soil.
[0143] Comparative Examples 1-3 of traditional curing methods: Comparative Example 1, using 0.1mm PE plastic film for full coverage curing, 400g / m 2 Comparative Example 2, which involved full coverage curing with polyester geotextile, and Comparative Example 3, which involved continuous surface water covering (5 mm water depth), both failed to effectively control surface cracking of the fluidized solidified soil. The cracking rates of the three examples ranged from 26.4% to 48.8%, with the maximum crack width ranging from 0.8 to 2.1 mm. Furthermore, except for Comparative Example 3, which involved water covering, the 72-hour water loss rates of Comparative Example 1 (PE membrane) and Comparative Example 2 (geotextile) remained at a relatively high level of 36.5% to 64.1%, fully demonstrating that the crack control effect of traditional curing methods on fluidized solidified soil is far inferior to that of the crack-resistant composite curing membrane of this invention.
[0144] Comparing Example 1 with Comparative Example 4 (cured using only a single-layer water-molecule slow-release membrane) and Comparative Example 5 (cured using only a single-layer reflective heat-insulating membrane), it is evident that the curing effect of using any single-layer membrane alone is significantly inferior to the composite curing membrane of this invention. The single-layer reflective heat-insulating membrane and the water-molecule slow-release membrane provided by this invention have functional mutual support, exhibiting excellent curing effects for fluidized solidified soil. Comparing Example 1 with Comparative Example 6, it is evident that the beneficial effects of the polyethylene glycol / bentonite intercalation are significant and indispensable.

Various modifications and improvements made by those skilled in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit of the present invention should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
