Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to an interlayer composite structure, its preparation method, and a dam, and more particularly to an interlayer composite structure, its preparation method, and a dam that combines high-efficiency waterproofing and low thermal conductivity, belonging to the technical field of building waterproofing and thermal insulation materials. Background Technology
[0002] Dams in hydropower projects are typically made of cement concrete, which is prone to surface cracks due to drying shrinkage and temperature stress. Appropriate and effective insulation and moisture retention measures can significantly reduce the likelihood of crack formation.
[0003] Polyurea waterproof coatings are widely used in building roofs, underground engineering, and other scenarios due to their excellent mechanical properties (tensile strength ≥15MPa), rapid curing (surface drying time <10min), and seamless waterproof characteristics. However, traditional polyurea coatings have a high thermal conductivity (approximately 0.2-0.3W / (m•K)), requiring an additional insulation layer in scenarios requiring thermal insulation, increasing construction costs and thickness. Aerogel coatings, as a new type of thermal insulation material, have ultra-low thermal conductivity (0.02-0.04W / (m•K)) and lightweight properties, but when used alone, they suffer from insufficient mechanical strength (hardness <2H) and weak adhesion to the substrate (cross-cut test ≥2 level), and are susceptible to moisture erosion when directly exposed outdoors, leading to a decrease in thermal insulation performance. Currently, there is no technical solution to achieve integrated waterproofing and thermal insulation by combining polyurea waterproof coatings and aerogel coatings through interlayer lamination. There is an urgent need to develop a structurally stable and performance-synergistic composite coating system to provide good waterproofing and thermal insulation for target structures such as dams.

Introducing nano-silica into the polyurea coating can further enhance its density, resulting in a water absorption rate of ≤0.5%. A transition layer is set between the polyurea coating and the aerogel layer.

[0026] (2) Synergistic efficiency mechanism Waterproof and heat-insulating integrated: The polyurea coating layer blocks the penetration of liquid water, and the aerogel layer isolates the diffusion of gaseous water (water vapor transmission rate ≤ 0.1g / (m²)). 2 •h)) forms a double moisture barrier, effectively improving the waterproof performance of the interlayer composite structure.
