Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of building materials technology and relates to a low thermal conductivity concrete and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Green building has become a core direction for the transformation and upgrading of the construction industry, and it places stringent requirements on the energy efficiency, environmental protection, and structural performance of building materials. Among these, foamed concrete, as a lightweight thermal insulation material, is widely used in the walls and roof insulation layers of green buildings due to its excellent thermal insulation performance, lightweight and high-strength characteristics, and environmental friendliness. The thermal conductivity of foamed concrete is a key indicator for evaluating its insulation performance and directly affects the building's energy consumption level. To reduce the thermal conductivity of foamed concrete, existing technologies often employ methods such as incorporating lightweight aggregates, optimizing the foam pore size distribution, or introducing fiber materials. Polypropylene fibers, due to their low density, strong chemical corrosion resistance, moderate cost, and low thermal conductivity, are widely used in the modification research of foamed concrete. Studies have shown that the incorporation of polypropylene fibers can form a three-dimensional randomized support system in the concrete matrix, which has a certain barrier effect on heat transfer and may reduce the thermal conductivity to some extent; at the same time, the fibers can also inhibit the generation and propagation of internal cracks in concrete, improving its toughness and crack resistance. However, in practical applications, it has been found that the interfacial bonding between polypropylene fibers and the foamed concrete matrix is poor. When the fiber content exceeds a certain proportion, it leads to an increase in the internal porosity of the concrete and an increase in defects in the interfacial transition zone, resulting in a significant decrease in the compressive strength and other mechanical properties of the foamed concrete. To balance the thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of polypropylene fiber-modified foamed concrete, researchers have attempted to improve it by adjusting the fiber content, optimizing the fiber length, or improving the mixing process. For example, controlling the polypropylene fiber content within a small range can reduce the negative impact on strength, but this method limits the reduction in thermal conductivity, making it difficult to meet the requirements of ultra-low thermal conductivity for high-star green buildings. Another example is using surface coating with silane coupling agents to improve the interfacial bonding between the fibers and the matrix, but silane coupling agents have poor hydrolytic stability and are prone to failure in alkaline cementitious matrices, leading to unstable modification effects. In addition, some studies have used steel fibers and glass fibers to replace polypropylene fibers. Although this can improve mechanical properties to some extent, these fibers themselves have high thermal conductivity, which will offset the thermal insulation advantages of foamed concrete and significantly increase costs, hindering large-scale application. Summary of the Invention
[0003] This invention aims to address the technical problem that the incorporation of polypropylene fibers into foamed concrete significantly reduces its compressive strength, making it difficult to simultaneously achieve low thermal conductivity and high strength.

[0020] This invention effectively solves the technical challenge of achieving both significant strength reduction and low thermal conductivity in traditional foamed concrete by synergistically modifying polypropylene fibers with tannic acid and polydimethylsiloxane. Tannic acid modification forms a physical adsorption layer on the surface of the polypropylene fibers through its polyphenolic structure, enhancing the fibers' polarity and hydrophilicity and providing active sites for subsequent modification. Polydimethylsiloxane modification introduces a hydrophobic and flexible coating on the surface, improving the interfacial adhesion between the fibers and the concrete matrix, reducing interfacial defects, and thus enhancing overall mechanical properties. The synergistic effect of these two modification steps optimizes fiber dispersion and interfacial bonding in concrete, both blocking heat conduction paths to reduce thermal conductivity and maintaining concrete strength through the fiber's reinforcing effect, ultimately achieving a balance between low thermal conductivity and high strength. The modified polypropylene fibers in concrete not only further reduce thermal conductivity but also significantly increase compressive strength, achieving a synergistic optimization of high strength and low thermal conductivity. In addition, this concrete meets relevant performance indicators in practical applications, has low dry density, high construction efficiency, and reduces cement usage, thus exhibiting good economic and environmental benefits.

[0072] By weight, the formula for conventional foamed concrete 2 is as follows: 950 parts cement, 50 parts fly ash, 8 parts foaming agent, 450 parts water, 2 parts early strength agent, 3 parts water-reducing agent, 10 parts quick-setting agent, and 4 parts polypropylene fiber.
[0073] By weight, the formula for conventional foamed concrete is as follows: 950 parts cement, 50 parts fly ash, 8 parts foaming agent, 450 parts water, 2 parts early strength agent, 3 parts water-reducing agent, 10 parts quick-setting agent, and 5 parts polypropylene fiber.
[0074] The modified foamed concrete 1 formula, by weight, consists of 950 parts cement, 50 parts fly ash, 8 parts foaming agent, 450 parts water, 2 parts early strength agent, 3 parts water-reducing agent, 10 parts quick-setting agent, and 3 parts modified polypropylene fiber prepared in Example 2.

[0077] The modified foamed concrete formula 4, by weight, consists of 950 parts cement, 50 parts fly ash, 8 parts foaming agent, 450 parts water, 2 parts early strength agent, 3 parts water-reducing agent, 10 parts quick-setting agent, and 5 parts modified polypropylene fiber prepared in Example 5.
[0078] The modified foamed concrete 5 formula, by weight, consists of 950 parts cement, 50 parts fly ash, 8 parts foaming agent, 450 parts water, 2 parts early strength agent, 3 parts water-reducing agent, 10 parts quick-setting agent, and 5 parts modified polypropylene fiber prepared in Example 6.
[0079] Following the preparation method of Example 1, conventional foamed concrete 1-3 and modified foamed concrete 1-5 were prepared. After conventional curing for 28 days, the 28-day compressive strength was measured according to "JG / T 266-2011 Foamed Concrete", and the thermal conductivity was measured according to "GB / T 1024-2008 Determination of Steady-State Thermal Resistance and Related Properties of Thermal Insulation Materials - Protective Hot Plate Method". The test results are shown in Table 1.
[0080] Table 1 28d compressive strength and thermal conductivity
[0081]
[0082] Table 1 shows that as the amount of conventional polypropylene fiber increased from 0 to 5 parts, the thermal conductivity of the foamed concrete decreased slightly from 0.1221 W / (m·K) to 0.1144 W / (m·K) (a decrease of 6.3%), but the 28-day compressive strength plummeted from 3.0 MPa to 1.1 MPa (a loss of 63.3%), confirming that the incorporation of polypropylene fiber reduces the thermal conductivity of foamed concrete while also negatively impacting its strength. This application uses tannic acid and polydimethylsiloxane for synergistic modification. The 28-day compressive strength of modified foamed concrete 1-3 increased by 40.0%-53.3% compared to the fiber-free reference sample, while the thermal conductivity decreased to 0.0938-0.0971 W / (m·K), achieving a synergistic optimization of high strength and low thermal conductivity. The single-step modification schemes, with only tannic acid modification achieving the same strength as the benchmark sample and limited reduction in thermal conductivity, and only polydimethylsiloxane modification resulting in lower strength and insignificant improvement in thermal conductivity, fail to achieve the synergistic effect of the two-step modification.
[0083] Based on the optimized formula, modified foamed concrete 2 was used to complete the sample construction of Building 17. The implementation effect was checked according to the set objectives.
