Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of building materials technology, specifically relating to a single-component, wet-spray, cement-based protective coating suitable for concrete structures such as tunnels and underground engineering projects. It is a single-component dry powder premix. Specifically, it relates to the wet-spray protective coating for tunnels and underground engineering projects, its preparation method, and its application method. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, epoxy resin-based coatings or polyurethane waterproof membranes are commonly used for concrete protection in tunnels and underground structures. While epoxy resin coatings offer excellent impermeability, they are brittle, their adhesion to concrete is easily affected by interface humidity, and they release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during curing, resulting in harsh construction environments. Polyurethane materials, although possessing a certain degree of elasticity, rely on isocyanate-based curing agents, posing a fire and explosion risk, and have poor resistance to UV aging, easily powdering and failing with long-term exposure. Furthermore, the significant difference in thermal expansion coefficients between these organic coatings and concrete makes them prone to peeling cracks under alternating temperature conditions, failing to meet the long-term protection requirements under complex working conditions. While ordinary cement-based mortar is more environmentally friendly, its brittleness and insufficient impermeability make it unsuitable for the deformation adaptability requirements of dynamically loaded tunnels. Single-component dry powder mortars often rely on latex powder compounding. By adding VAE latex powder and cellulose ether to ordinary cement-based materials to make up for the mortar's deficiencies, this results in a high elastic modulus (>15GPa) and a low ultimate strain (<5%), which cannot adapt to the micro-deformation of the concrete matrix. In addition, the Cl⁻ diffusion coefficient is generally higher than 1×10⁻¹² m² / s, resulting in insufficient resistance to ion penetration. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the problems of existing technologies, this invention proposes a wet spray protective coating for tunnels and underground engineering, along with its preparation and application methods.
[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:
[0005] A wet-spray protective coating for tunnels and underground structures, comprising the following components by weight percentage:
[0006] Ordinary silicate cement 40-55%, sulfoaluminate cement 0.3-2%, silica fume (SiO2≥92%) 10-15%, acrylic latex powder 12-16%, hydrophobically modified nano-silica 2-5%, graded quartz sand 12-20%, antistatic fiber 0.1-0.5%, polycarboxylate superplasticizer 1-2.5%, calcium nitrite 0.8-1.5%, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) 0.2-0.5%, bentonite 0.05-0.3%; total components 100%.
[0007] The hydrophobically modified nano-silica is nanoparticles surface-treated with silane coupling agent KH-550 or KH-570. The amount of silane coupling agent added is 1-2% of the mass of nano-silica, and the contact angle after modification is ≥120°. The hydrophobically modified nano-silica can be replaced with hydrophobically modified nano-alumina or nano-calcium carbonate. After replacement, the specific surface area of the nanoparticles is ≥150 m² / g, and the surface contact angle is ≥110°.
[0008] The antistatic fiber is selected from at least one of polypropylene fiber, polyvinyl alcohol fiber, or basalt fiber, with a fiber diameter of 6-20 μm and a length of 2-5 mm. The surface is treated with 0.3-0.8% quaternary ammonium salt antistatic agent, resulting in a surface resistivity ≤1×10⁻⁶. 8 Ω.
[0009] The particle size distribution of the graded quartz sand meets the following ratios: 60-70% for 0.15-0.3mm, 25-35% for 0.1-0.15mm, and ≤5% for fine powder <0.1mm; the fineness modulus is 1.8-2.6, and the maximum particle size does not exceed 0.3mm; the graded quartz sand can be replaced with manufactured sand, recycled sand, or lightweight aggregate, and the replaced aggregate must meet the following conditions:
[0010] Particle size distribution: The proportion of particles with a diameter of 0.1-0.3 mm should not be less than 90%, and the maximum particle size should not exceed 0.35 mm; Mud content: ≤0.5%; Water absorption rate: For manufactured sand and recycled sand, the water absorption rate should be ≤5%.
[0011] For lightweight aggregates, the apparent density should be in the range of 300-900 kg / m³, the water absorption rate should be ≤30%, and the compressive strength should be not less than 0.5 MPa.
[0012] The polycarboxylate superplasticizer is replaced with a naphthalene-based superplasticizer or an aminosulfonate superplasticizer, and the water reduction rate after replacement must be ≥20%.
[0013] The ordinary Portland cement is grade 42.5-52.5, preferably 52.5R early-strength type; C3A content is 6-8%, and specific surface area is 350±10 m² / kg. Ordinary Portland cement can be wholly or partially replaced with slag Portland cement, fly ash Portland cement, or composite Portland cement. After replacement, the total amount of cementitious materials should remain at 40-55%, and the specific surface area of the replaced cement should be ≥340 m² / kg, with a C3A content ≤8%.
[0014] The sulfoaluminate cement contains ≥28% Al2O3 and ≥10% SO3.
[0015] The acrylic latex powder has a glass transition temperature (Tg) ≤ 0℃ and a minimum film-forming temperature ≤ -5℃. After film formation, it forms a continuous phase in the coating and forms an interpenetrating network structure with cement hydration products. The acrylic latex powder can be replaced with styrene-acrylic latex powder or styrene-butadiene latex powder. After replacement, the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the latex powder is ≤ 5℃ and the minimum film-forming temperature is ≤ 0℃.
[0016] After all the above materials are replaced, the core properties of the cured coating must meet the following requirements: elastic modulus 5-10 GPa; Cl⁻ diffusion coefficient < 5 × 10⁻¹³ m² / s; tensile strength > 12 MPa; bond strength with concrete matrix > 5 MPa.
[0017] The preparation method of the wet-spray type protective coating for tunnels and underground engineering structures according to the present invention includes the following steps:

After classification, the content of particles >0.3mm in the quartz sand is ≤0.1%;
[0019] (2) Modification of nano-silica: Nano-SiO2 and silane coupling agent are mixed at a mass ratio of 98:2-97:3 and treated in a high-speed disperser at 1800-2200r / min for 8-12min;
[0020] (3) Fiber treatment: Apply 0.3-0.8% quaternary ammonium salt antistatic agent solution by spraying, with atomization pressure of 0.1-0.3MPa, coverage rate ≥95%, and drying temperature of 50-70℃;
[0021] (4) Phased mixing:

[0023] Fiber dispersion: Turn on a pulsed airflow of 0.2-0.5MPa at a frequency of 6-10 times / min, and mix for 3-5 minutes after sprinkling in the fiber;
[0024] Final mixing: Add quartz sand, latex powder, water-reducing agent, and calcium nitrite, and mix at 60±5 r / min for 12-18 min;
[0025] Vacuum packaging: Uses aluminum foil composite bags with a thickness of ≥80μm, a vacuum degree of ≥90kPa, and contains silica gel desiccant.
[0026] The application method of the wet-spray protective coating for tunnels and underground structures of the present invention includes the following steps:
[0027] (1) Base surface treatment: The moisture content of the concrete surface is controlled at 6-10% and there is no standing water. The crack grouting uses epoxy resin-cement composite grout with a viscosity ≤30s.
[0028] (2) Slurry preparation: water-cement ratio 0.20-0.28, the mixing procedure is as follows: dry powder premix and 80% water are mixed at a mixing speed of 300±50r / min for 1-2min → the remaining water is added and mixed at 1200±100r / min for 2-3min → stand for 3-5min to mature;
[0029] (3) Wet spraying construction: Use a rotor piston wet spraying machine with a working pressure of 0.6-0.8MPa, a nozzle diameter of 8-12mm, a spraying distance of 20-40cm, and spray in layers to a total thickness of 2.0±0.3mm;
[0030] (4) Maintenance and management: After initial setting, cover with a 0.1mm thick PE water-retaining film, spray with moisture every 2 hours within 24 hours, maintain the temperature at ≥5℃ and the humidity at ≥90%.
[0031] When applying the wet spray method described above, the thickness of a single coat should be ≤1mm, the interval between coats should be 10-15min, the ambient temperature should be 5-35℃, and the wind speed should be ≤3m / s.
[0032] After spraying and curing, a flame-retardant and impermeable layer with a thickness of 1.8~2.2mm is formed.
[0033] The powder mixing equipment is a twin-shaft forced mixer, and the mixing temperature is controlled at 15~35℃.
[0034] The water-cement ratio of the slurry is 0.20~0.28, preferably 0.22~0.25. When the ambient temperature is >30℃, the water-cement ratio is increased to 0.25~0.28, and a retarder (sodium gluconate) of 0.1%~0.3% is added.
[0035] During the staged mixing process, the mixing temperature is controlled at ≤35℃ in the premixing stage and ≤40℃ in the final mixing stage, and the uniformity of mixing is qualified by the coefficient of variation of Ca²⁺ content ≤3%.
[0036] The nozzle of the wet sprayer is made of hard alloy with an inner wall roughness Ra≤0.8μm and a nozzle length-to-diameter ratio (L / D) of 6:1-8:1.
[0037] 0.1-0.5% pigment or 0.05-0.2% rust inhibitor slow-release microcapsules can be added to the coating, and the fluctuation range of the core performance indicators after addition is ≤5%.
[0038] Used for surface protection of tunnels, underground utility tunnels, bridge piers or marine concrete structures, the coating forms a flame-retardant and impermeable layer with a thickness of 1.8~2.2mm after spraying and curing.
[0039] The formulation of this invention comprises a cementitious material system, a polymer and nano-reinforcing system, an aggregate and fiber system, and a functional additive system; wherein: hydrophobically modified nano-SiO is surface-modified with a silane coupling agent (KH-570), polypropylene fibers are treated with quaternary ammonium salts for antistatic properties (surface resistivity ≤1×10⁻⁶). 8 Ω), sulfoaluminate cement regulates setting time and compensates for shrinkage, silica fume fills pores and participates in pozzolanic reaction, acrylic latex powder forms a flexible polymer network, calcium nitrite is a rust inhibitor, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose is a water-retaining and thickening agent, and bentonite is a thixotropic modifier.
[0040] The preparation method of the wet-spray protective coating for tunnels and underground engineering structures of the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, it includes the following steps:
[0041] (1) Quartz sand pretreatment: dry at 105±5℃ until the moisture content is ≤0.2%, and control the particle size distribution by vibrating screen grading;
[0042] The vibrating screen uses a three-layer screen for grading: the upper layer has a screen aperture of 0.3 mm (rejection rate ≥99%), the middle layer has a screen aperture of 0.15 mm, and the lower layer has a screen aperture of 0.1 mm. After grading, the content of particles >0.3 mm in the quartz sand is ≤0.1%.
[0043] (2) Modification of nano-silica: Nano-SiO2 and silane coupling agent are mixed at a mass ratio of 98:2-97:3 and treated in a high-speed disperser at 1800-2200r / min for 8-12min;
[0044] (3) Fiber treatment: Apply 0.3-0.8% quaternary ammonium salt antistatic agent solution by spraying, with atomization pressure of 0.1-0.3MPa, coverage rate ≥95%, and drying temperature of 50-70℃;
[0045] (4) Phased mixing:
[0046] 1. Premixing stage: Add cement, silica fume, sulfoaluminate cement, nano silica, HPMC and bentonite into a twin-shaft mixer and mix at a low speed of 40±5 r / min for 5~8 min;
[0047] 2. Fiber dispersion: Add the fiber and turn on the pulse airflow device (pressure 0.2~0.5MPa, frequency 6-10 times / min). After sprinkling the fiber, mix for 3~5 minutes until the fiber monofilaments are dispersed.
[0048] 3. Final mixing stage: Add quartz sand, latex powder, water-reducing agent and calcium nitrite in sequence, increase the speed to 60±5 r / min and mix for 12-18 min until homogeneous;
[0049] 4. Packaging and storage: Sealed in a moisture-proof aluminum foil bag, using an aluminum foil composite bag with a thickness of ≥80μm, a vacuum degree of ≥90kPa, and a humidity of ≤60%. It contains silica gel desiccant and has a shelf life of 6~12 months.
[0050] The coating described in this invention is a single-component dry powder premix, which is shipped as a solid powder (water-free). The amount of water added needs to be dynamically adjusted according to on-site construction conditions (such as substrate humidity and ambient temperature).
[0051] In the preparation method of the wet spray protective coating for tunnel structures, during the staged mixing process, the premixing temperature of the base material is ≤35℃, the mixing temperature of the final mixing stage is ≤40℃, and the uniformity of mixing is qualified by the coefficient of variation of Ca²⁺ content CV ≤3% (tested according to GB / T 176-2017).
[0052] Compared to the traditional "extensive one-step mixing" production model of coatings, this invention establishes a systematic preparation method based on "precision pretreatment, multi-stage energy-sequential construction, and end-to-end activity assurance." First, a dedicated raw material pretreatment process (precision gradation of quartz sand, in-situ hydrophobic modification of nano-silica, and antistatic treatment of fibers) lays the material foundation for the high-performance system. Then, a staged mixing process—sequentially premixing of the base material, pulsed airflow-assisted fiber dispersion, and final mixing—with precisely controlled rotation speed and airflow, solves the problems of fiber agglomeration and component separation. Finally, high-vacuum aluminum foil packaging ensures the chemical stability of the highly active components during storage and transportation. This entire process is deeply coupled with the high-performance formulation, becoming an indispensable core technological guarantee for achieving the product's superior performance.
[0053] The construction method of the wet-spray type protective coating for tunnel structures of the present invention is as follows: Figure 2 ,include:
[0054] (1) Base surface treatment: The moisture content of the concrete surface is controlled at 6-10% and there is no standing water. The crack grouting uses epoxy resin-cement composite grout (viscosity ≤30s).
[0055] (2) Slurry preparation: water-cement ratio 0.20-0.28, the mixing procedure is as follows: dry powder premix is mixed with 80% water at low speed (300±50r / min) for 1-2min → the remaining water is added and mixed at high speed (1200±100r / min) for 2-3min → stand for maturation for 3-5min;
[0056] (3) Wet spraying construction: Use a rotor piston wet spraying machine with a working pressure of 0.6-0.8MPa, a nozzle diameter of 8-12mm, a spraying distance of 20-40cm, and spray in layers to a total thickness of 2.0±0.3mm. See the support diagram. Figure 3 .
[0057] The nozzle of the wet sprayer is made of hard alloy with an inner wall roughness Ra≤0.8μm and a nozzle length-to-diameter ratio (L / D) of 6:1-8:1.
[0058] (4) Maintenance and management: After initial setting, cover with a 0.1mm thick PE water-retaining film, spray with moisture every 2 hours within 24 hours, maintain the temperature at ≥5℃ and the humidity at ≥90%.
[0059] In the substrate treatment stage, setting the optimal interface moisture content and employing epoxy-cement composite grouting technology laid a stable foundation for high bonding strength. In the grout preparation stage, a programmed step-by-step mixing and maturation process ensured the uniformity and workability of the ultra-high density grout. In the core spraying stage, a dense and uniform ultra-thin coating was achieved through customized hard alloy nozzles (with specific aspect ratios and extremely low roughness) and precise process parameter control. In the curing stage, an active water-retaining curing system combining "covering and timed spraying" thoroughly guaranteed the final performance and future development of the material.
[0060] When applying the wet spray method described above, the thickness of a single coat should be ≤1mm, the interval between coats should be 10-15min, the ambient temperature should be 5-35℃, and the wind speed should be ≤3m / s.
[0061] The coating differs from traditional coatings in that it can contain 0.1-0.5% pigment or 0.05-0.2% rust inhibitor slow-release microcapsules, depending on actual needs, and the fluctuation range of the core performance indicators after addition is ≤5%.
[0062] The moisture content of the substrate is controlled as follows: the moisture content of the substrate before spraying is 6%~10%, and there is no standing water.
[0063] Used for surface protection of tunnels, underground utility tunnels, bridge piers or marine concrete structures, the coating forms a flame-retardant and impermeable layer with a thickness of 1.8~2.2mm after spraying and curing.
[0064] The coating exhibits an initial impermeability pressure of ≥0.8MPa (7 days) and a long-term impermeability pressure of ≥1.5MPa (28 days) after spraying. Its long-term impermeability performance (≥1.5MPa) is 50% to 275% higher than that of conventional cement-based protective materials, and it achieves a leap in early impermeability (≥0.8MPa in 7 days), demonstrating a strong ability to continuously improve performance. It overcomes the inherent defects of organic coatings, such as high brittleness, easy aging, and poor compatibility with concrete.
[0065] The powder mixing equipment is a twin-shaft forced mixer, and the mixing temperature is controlled at 15~35℃.
[0066] The water-cement ratio of the slurry is 0.20~0.28, preferably 0.22~0.25. When the ambient temperature is >30℃, the water-cement ratio is increased to 0.25~0.28, and a retarder (sodium gluconate) of 0.1%~0.3% is added.
[0067] This invention proposes an enhancement system: an interpenetrating network formed by hydrophobically modified nano-SiO2 (2.5-4.0%) and acrylic latex powder (12-16%), wherein the surface of nano-SiO2 is modified by a silane coupling agent, the contact angle is ≥120°, and the glass transition temperature Tg of the latex powder is ≤0℃ to ensure low-temperature film formation.
[0068] In a method for preparing a single-component dry powder premix of the present invention, a three-stage mixing process is proposed: base material premixing → pulsed airflow dispersion of fibers → final mixing, so that the fiber monofilament rate is ≥95%.
[0069] The application of the single-component dry powder premix of the present invention in construction requires the addition of water and mixing on site, with a water-cement ratio of 0.20-0.28. A rotor piston wet spraying machine is used to achieve an ultra-thin spraying of 2.0±0.3mm. Compared with traditional processes, the coating has strong adhesion, can be formed in one spraying, and the mechanization saves time and manpower, improving the overall construction efficiency by 50%.
[0070] The micro-expansion of sulfoaluminate cement compensates for shrinkage, and silica fume fills the micropores to make the porosity ≤5%.
[0071] The performance indicators of the coating of the present invention after curing meet the following requirements:
[0072] Elastic modulus 5-10 GPa (GB / T 50081-2019), tensile strength >12 MPa (GB / T 2567-2008), ultimate strain ≥10% (GB / T 50082-2009), Cl⁻ diffusion coefficient <5×10⁻¹³ m² / s (ASTM C1556), bond strength >5 MPa (JGJ / T 70-2009), oxygen index ≥28% (GB / T 2406.2-2009). Linear shrinkage rate: ≤0.02%; initial impermeability pressure (7 days): ≥0.8 MPa; long-term impermeability pressure (28 days): ≥1.5 MPa.
[0073] Existing technologies are typically based on simple physical modification of a single cementitious system (ordinary cement or ordinary cement + a small amount of admixtures) and low-dosage ordinary latex powder. This invention, through a composite cementitious system of "ordinary cement + sulfoaluminate cement", utilizes the complementary hydration characteristics of the two cements to achieve a balance between "rapid hardening and early strength" and "long-term stability", and improves volume stability. It uses ultra-high dosage (12-16%) of acrylic latex powder to form a continuous organic network, realizing the transformation from rigidity to significant flexibility, giving the material excellent crack bridging and deformation adaptability. It also innovatively introduces hydrophobically modified nano-silica, which, while achieving nanoscale physical filling, gives the coating active hydrophobicity. Combined with calcium nitrite rust inhibitor, it jointly constructs an active multi-protection system from physical barrier to chemical and electrochemical protection.
[0074] This invention's coating uses ordinary silicate cement as a base material. Through the compounding of acrylic latex powder, nano-modified materials, and functional admixtures, it achieves high toughness characteristics with an elastic modulus of 5-10 GPa, tensile strength >12 MPa, and ultimate strain ≥10%, while also possessing excellent impermeability with a Cl⁻ diffusion coefficient <5×10⁻¹³ m² / s. This material employs a solvent-free wet spraying process. Its formulation design eliminates traditional toxic and harmful components (such as isocyanates and amine curing agents), using an environmentally friendly material system. After curing, it forms a dense waterproof membrane layer approximately 2 mm thick, effectively blocking chloride ion penetration and improving structural durability. It also possesses flame retardancy, chemical corrosion resistance, and a bonding strength to the substrate >5 MPa, adapting to the needs of mechanized spraying construction and suitable for concrete surface protection under complex working conditions.
