Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of building waste resource utilization and high-performance concrete preparation, and relates to a preparation method of super-high-strength full-recycled coarse aggregate concrete. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, carbon reduction in the construction industry has received high attention from the global academic community. Preparing recycled aggregate from waste concrete and replacing natural aggregate to prepare recycled aggregate concrete is an important path for energy saving and carbon reduction in the construction industry, and has become a research hotspot in the current construction field. However, the mixing ratio of recycled aggregate in previous research and engineering is usually about 30%, which limits the carbon reduction potential of recycled aggregate concrete. Full-recycled coarse aggregate concrete is a recycled concrete with a mixing ratio of recycled coarse aggregate reaching 100%. It not only maximizes the high-value utilization of waste concrete, but also saves more natural sand and stone, and has more significant environmental benefits.

[0003] However, due to the attachment of old mortar on the surface of recycled aggregate and the inevitable production of micro-cracks in the production process, the crushing index of recycled aggregate is lower than that of the same type of natural aggregate, and the porosity and water absorption are higher than those of the same type of natural aggregate. Therefore, the strength and elastic modulus of recycled aggregate concrete are often lower than those of natural aggregate concrete with the same mixing ratio, thereby limiting the application of recycled aggregate concrete. The compressive strength and modulus of full-recycled coarse aggregate concrete are further reduced due to the use of 100% recycled coarse aggregate, so the mechanical property improvement path must be studied. The mechanical properties of recycled aggregate concrete used in current engineering are usually C30 and C40, and some research reports the preparation method of recycled aggregate concrete above C40, such as the preparation method of full-recycled coarse aggregate concrete with 28-day compressive strength above 50MPa proposed by Professor Cao Wanlin of Beijing University of Technology (CN102887679B). However, full-recycled coarse aggregate concrete with compressive strength above C60 is still rare.

[0004] Carbon nanotubes have ultra-high specific surface area and chemical stability, and can play key roles such as mechanical enhancement and pore filling in concrete, and have great potential in enhancing the mechanical properties of full-recycled coarse aggregate concrete. However, carbon nanotubes have poor dispersibility in concrete and are prone to aggregation, which weakens the enhancement effect; at the same time, carbon nanotube materials are expensive, which will significantly increase the cost of concrete. Therefore, the application not only needs to solve the problem of dispersibility of carbon nanotubes, but also needs to solve the problem of source of carbon nanotubes. SUMMARY

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for preparing ultra-high strength fully recycled coarse aggregate concrete. This method utilizes waste polymer waterproof membrane to prepare carbon nanomaterials, and then pre-treats these carbon nanotubes to enhance the fully recycled coarse aggregate concrete. This invention not only enables the fully recycled coarse aggregate concrete to achieve a compressive strength exceeding C80 and an elastic modulus exceeding 40 GPa, but also solves the problem of carbon nanotube dispersion while reducing its cost, and provides a feasible high-value resource utilization path for waste waterproof materials.

[0006] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A method for preparing ultra-high strength fully recycled coarse aggregate concrete includes the following steps: 1) Waste polymer waterproof membrane was pyrolyzed in an inert atmosphere to obtain a pyrolysis product containing carbon nanotubes; The pyrolysis product, silane coupling agent, and water were mixed to obtain a carbon nanotube dispersion. Carbon nanotube dispersion was sprayed onto the surface of a mixture of recycled coarse aggregate and sand, and then dried to obtain reinforced aggregate; Pyrolysis products are mixed with cement to obtain modified cement; 2) Mix reinforced aggregate, modified cement, mineral admixtures and water to obtain fully recycled coarse aggregate concrete.

[0007] Plastics can be chemically reacted (pyrolysis carbonization, chemical vapor deposition, etc.) to prepare carbon nanotubes and graphene, providing a feasible path to reduce the cost of carbon nanotubes. Waste waterproofing materials contain a large amount of polymers, such as TPO and PVC. Using these as raw materials for preparing carbon nanomaterials can not only solve the problem of high-quality resource utilization of my country's waste waterproofing materials, which have reserves of hundreds of billions of square meters, but also enhance the mechanical properties of fully recycled coarse aggregate concrete. Regarding the dispersion problem of carbon nanotubes, they can be separately coated onto the surface of recycled aggregates and sand, and then uniformly mixed with cement to reduce the aggregation problem. Based on the above ideas, this invention proposes a method for preparing ultra-high strength fully recycled coarse aggregate concrete, successfully producing fully recycled coarse aggregate concrete with a 28-day compressive strength exceeding C80, while maintaining good durability and workability.

[0008] This invention mixes carbon nanotubes with recycled aggregate, sand, and cement, allowing the carbon nanotubes to be uniformly distributed in the interfacial transition zone and within the mortar of fully recycled coarse aggregate concrete. The carbon nanotubes located in the interfacial transition zone not only reduce the porosity and water absorption of the recycled aggregate, improving the mechanical properties of the transition zone, but also enhance the bond strength between the recycled aggregate and the mortar through a bridging effect. Meanwhile, the carbon nanotubes dispersed within the mortar form a network, significantly enhancing the mechanical properties of the mortar.

In the ultrasonic cleaning process, the ultrasonic temperature is 50-60℃, the ultrasonic frequency is 40-50kHz, and the ultrasonic time is 30-60min. The drying process involves natural air drying, which takes 2-3 hours. After grinding, the particle size is ≤1mm.

In the ultrasonic treatment, the ultrasonic frequency is 20-40kHz and the ultrasonic time is 30-60 min. During the centrifugation, the centrifugation speed is 2000-3000 rpm and the centrifugation time is 20-60 min; The solid content of the carbon nanotube dispersion is 0.5-2 wt%.

[0014] In some specific embodiments, in step 1), the water absorption rate of the recycled coarse aggregate does not exceed 3%, the crushing index does not exceed 15%, and the particle size distribution is 5-25mm; the particle size distribution of the sand is 0.15-4.75mm. During the preparation of the reinforced aggregate, the spraying pressure is 0.25-0.3 MPa; the spraying time is 25-30 s / kg per kilogram of the mixture; the drying is carried out by static drying at room temperature for 24-48 h.

[0015] In some specific embodiments, in step 1), the cement is Portland 42.5 cement; the mass ratio of the cement to the pyrolysis product is 1-2:50, the mixing method is stirring, the stirring speed is 500 rpm, and the stirring time is 30-60 min.

[0016] In some specific embodiments, in step 2), the mineral admixture includes slag powder and fly ash in a mass ratio of 2-3:1; The slag powder is S95 grade slag powder; the fly ash is Grade I fly ash.

[0017] In some specific implementations, in step 2), the mass ratio of the recycled coarse aggregate, cement, mineral admixture, sand, and water is 100-110:40-46:21-28:75-85:16-18. The mixing process includes stirring for 10-15 minutes, followed by standing for 15-20 minutes.

[0018] In some specific embodiments, in step 2), a water-reducing agent is also added during the mixing process of the reinforcing aggregate, modified cement, and mineral admixture; the mass ratio of the recycled coarse aggregate to the water-reducing agent is 1000-1100:5.4-8.4.

[0019] This invention utilizes a pyrolysis carbonization method to prepare carbon nanotubes from waste polymer waterproof membranes. These nanotubes are then used for surface modification of recycled coarse aggregates and optimization of the sand and cementitious system. By adjusting the mix proportions, ultra-high compressive strength fully recycled coarse aggregate concrete is obtained.

By utilizing the filling and bridging effects of carbon nanotubes, the 28-day compressive strength of concrete reaches 80-95 MPa, the elastic modulus is increased by 20%-30%, and it also has excellent resistance to deformation, impermeability and durability.

Moreover, its mechanical properties are excellent, which can significantly expand the application scenarios of recycled aggregate concrete.

[0023] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments.

[0024] A method for preparing ultra-high strength fully recycled coarse aggregate concrete includes the following steps: (1) Carbon nanotubes were prepared from waste polymer waterproofing materials. Select waste polymer waterproof membranes with thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) or polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as the main components. First, rinse with clean water for 5-10 minutes to remove impurities such as dust, sand, and nails from the surface. Then, ultrasonically clean at 50-60℃ for 30-60 minutes to remove oil stains and surface additives from the waste polymer waterproof membranes. After cleaning, let the waste polymer waterproof membranes air dry naturally for 2-3 hours to remove moisture. Next, use a crusher and grinder to crush and grind the waste polymer waterproof membranes into powder with a particle size of less than 1mm.

[0025] 100mg of waste polymer waterproof membrane powder was placed in a horizontal tube furnace, with inert argon as the protective gas and nickel nitrate as the catalyst. The temperature was gradually increased to about 900-1000℃ at a rate of 5℃ / min. The powder was then allowed to fully pyrolyze and carbonize for 2-3 hours. After cooling and fine grinding (D50≤5μm), carbon nanotubes with a purity of 30%-35% were obtained.

[0026] (2) Modification of recycled aggregates, sand and cement using carbon nanotubes First, carbon nanotubes, silane coupling agent (KH550 or KH560), and water are mixed in a mass ratio of 1:0.1:100 and stirred at a frequency of 20-40 kHz for 10-20 min. Then, the mixture is treated with an ultrasonic disruptor for 30-60 min. To remove undispersed agglomerates, the mixture is centrifuged at 2000-3000 rpm for 30-60 min to obtain a uniform carbon nanotube dispersion with a solid content of 0.5-2 wt%.

[0027] Recycled aggregate (5-25mm) that has undergone two crushing and screening pretreatments, with a water absorption rate controlled below 3% and a crushing index ≤15%, is selected. The sand selected meets the requirements of the national standard GB / T 14684-2022 for construction sand.

Then, it is left to stand for more than 24 hours until the moisture evaporates completely.
