Description
Low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete based on multi-source industrial solid waste and its preparation method Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of building materials technology, specifically relating to a low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] With the acceleration of global industrialization, the massive accumulation of industrial solid waste has placed severe pressure on the ecological environment. The traditional concrete industry, a typical high-energy-consuming and high-carbon-emission sector, consumes vast amounts of resources and releases huge amounts of CO2 during the production of its core raw material, cement. Meanwhile, traditional solid waste concrete generally suffers from insufficient strength, high brittleness, and susceptibility to shrinkage cracking, making it difficult to meet the stringent material performance requirements of modern engineering structures. Therefore, the construction industry's demand for high-performance, green, and low-carbon materials is increasingly urgent, especially in prefabricated buildings, large-span structures, and complex engineering scenarios. The contradiction between the lightweight requirements of prefabricated building components and the energy consumption of transportation and hoisting is prominent, necessitating concrete materials that combine lightweight, low-shrinkage deformation, and high strength. Against this backdrop, developing a new low-carbon, low-shrinkage concrete technology that uses multi-source industrial solid waste as the main raw material and significantly increases the solid waste content (to 50%–80%) can not only promote the large-scale disposal of solid waste and the development of the circular economy industry, but also respond to the national "dual-carbon" strategic goal, assist in the green transformation of the construction industry, and fill the market's technological gap for high-performance ecological building materials.
[0003] Currently, the preparation of lightweight solid waste-based concrete using low-carbon cementitious material systems composed of solid waste as composite aggregates faces challenges. These include limited solid waste utilization rates, immature multi-source solid waste co-utilization technologies, and low solid waste resource recovery efficiency. Furthermore, most low-carbon lightweight concretes have low strength, making it difficult to balance high compressive strength and low shrinkage, a significant challenge in the field. Related technologies focus on the mix design and development of low-carbon lightweight concrete. While some progress has been made in solid waste resource recovery and lightweighting, the utilization rate of the currently abundant lightweight solid waste materials remains low, limiting its application. Additionally, methods to reduce concrete weight, such as adding air-entraining agents and foam, create pores within the concrete to lower density. However, the uneven pore structure significantly reduces the mechanical properties of the concrete, failing to produce high-performance lightweight solid waste concrete. While incorporating ultrafine aggregates and fibers is an effective way to improve concrete performance, this solution increases concrete density, fundamentally conflicting with the lightweight requirements of prefabricated buildings.
[0004] Therefore, the main problem we face is how to comprehensively improve the utilization rate of solid waste in building materials, develop a low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete by combining the intrinsic characteristics and limitations of various solid waste materials, and make the new concrete have excellent workability and mechanical properties, so as to provide a new generation of structural materials for prefabricated buildings that have both ecological benefits and engineering applicability. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This invention aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in related technologies. Therefore, one objective of this invention is to propose a low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste and its preparation method. The low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste provided by this invention can significantly improve the synergistic utilization efficiency of multi-source industrial solid waste, promote the high-value transformation of solid waste resources, and simultaneously achieve low-carbon, lightweight, and high-strength comprehensive performance, meeting the multiple performance requirements of modern structural materials.
[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention proposes a low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, wherein the low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste comprises the following raw materials by weight: 250-640 parts cement, 150-250 parts silica fume, 190-210 parts fly ash microspheres, 260-650 parts phosphorus slag, 1100-1300 parts quartz sand, 10-15 parts defoamer, 12-20 parts water-reducing agent, 200-300 parts water, and 120-200 parts fiber.
[0007] According to the above embodiments of the present invention, the low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, compared with the concrete systems of the prior art that only use a single or small amount of industrial solid waste, achieves the synergistic substitution of cement by multiple industrial solid wastes such as fly ash microspheres, silica fume, and phosphorus slag through optimized raw material ratios. The high admixture content significantly increases the application ratio of lightweight solid waste materials. This synergistic composite system fully leverages the reinforcing and synergistic properties of various solid wastes, achieving the formation of a cementitious system with balanced and complementary performance. This effectively solves the problems of low solid waste utilization and limited applicability in the prior art, significantly improving the resource utilization efficiency of industrial solid waste. Furthermore, by optimizing the mix design and process control, the present invention, without introducing a large number of porous structures, utilizes the synergistic reinforcement mechanism of ultrafine powder active components and steel fibers to prepare lightweight concrete materials with both C60 and above strength grades and low shrinkage performance, breaking through the technical bottleneck of "lightweight and strength cannot be simultaneously achieved" in the prior art. This low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete, prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, not only meets the requirements of lightweighting, but also possesses excellent crack resistance and deformation coordination due to the retarding effect of phosphorus slag on the materials in the cementitious system and the subsequent pozzolanic reaction. It is particularly suitable for the high-performance requirements of prefabricated building structural components and joint structures.
[0008] In addition, the low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste according to the above embodiments of the present invention may also have the following additional technical features: In some embodiments of the present invention, the cement comprises P·O 52.5 grade silicate cement; and / or, based on the total mass of the cement, the mass percentage of CaO is 55%~57%; and / or, the specific surface area of the cement is 410 m². 2 / kg~430m 2 / kg; and / or, based on the total mass of the raw materials for the low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, the sum of the mass percentages of the fly ash microspheres, the silica fume, and the phosphorus slag is 50% to 80%. Therefore, the low-carbon, lightweight, and high-strength comprehensive properties of the low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste can be considered.
[0009] In some embodiments of the present invention, the specific surface area of the silica fume is ≥1.5×10⁻⁶. 4 m 2 / kg; and / or, based on the total mass of the silica fume, the mass percentage of SiO2 is ≥85%. Thus, the low-carbon, low-shrinkage, and high-strength comprehensive properties of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste can be achieved.
[0010] In some embodiments of the present invention, the specific surface area of the fly ash microspheres is ≥1200 m². 2 / kg; and / or, the volume average particle size d50 of the fly ash microspheres is ≤3μm. Thus, the low-carbon, low-shrinkage, and high-strength comprehensive properties of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste can be achieved.
[0011] In some embodiments of the present invention, the particle size of the quartz sand is 20-40 mesh. This allows for a balance of low carbon content, lightweight properties, and high strength in low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0012] In some embodiments of the present invention, the specific surface area of the phosphorus slag is ≥350 m². 2 / kg; and / or, the calcination vector of the phosphorus slag is ≤3.0%; and / or, based on the total mass of the phosphorus slag, the mass percentage of P2O3 is ≤3.5%; and / or, the 7-day activity index of the phosphorus slag is ≥60%. Thus, the low-carbon, low-shrinkage, lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste can achieve a comprehensive performance of low carbon content, lightweight, and high strength.
[0013] In some embodiments of the present invention, the fiber comprises copper-plated steel fiber; and / or, the fiber is straight rod-shaped; and / or, the fiber length is 11.7 mm to 14.3 mm; and / or, the effective diameter of the fiber is 180 μm to 220 μm. Thus, the low-carbon, low-shrinkage, lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste can achieve a combination of low carbon content, lightweight properties, and high strength.
[0014] In some embodiments of the present invention, the defoamer is a mixture of liquid hydrocarbons and polyglycerols with an inorganic carrier as the base; and / or, the water-reducing agent comprises modified polycarboxylic acid; and / or, the water-reducing agent has a density of 0.40 g / cm³. 3 ~0.55g / cm 3 Therefore, it is possible to take into account the comprehensive properties of low carbon, lightweight and high strength of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0015] In a second aspect of the invention, a method for preparing low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete based on multi-source industrial solid waste as described in the first aspect is proposed, comprising: mixing cement, silica fume, fly ash microspheres, phosphorus slag and defoamer evenly; adding a pre-mixed water-reducing agent and water mixture; stirring to form a homogeneous slurry; adjusting the stirring speed to 275 r / min to 295 r / min; adding quartz sand to the homogeneous slurry; stirring to form a homogeneous mortar; reducing the stirring speed to 135 r / min to 145 r / min; and adding fiber evenly multiple times; stirring to form a fiber mixture; loading the fiber mixture into a mold whose inner wall has been coated with a thin layer of mineral oil; allowing it to stand for 20 h to 25 h; removing the mold; and curing to obtain low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete based on multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0016] Therefore, the method for preparing low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete based on multi-source industrial solid waste proposed in this invention, compared with some existing technologies that require complex chemical foaming and air entrainment processes to reduce concrete density, resulting in uneven pore structure and unstable product performance, adopts conventional mechanical mixing and step-by-step feeding processes, combined with multiple low-speed fiber dispersion methods, to ensure uniform material distribution and fiber dispersion effect. The process is simple and controllable, easy to standardize and promote, and is particularly suitable for the factory-based and large-scale production of precast components, significantly improving the engineering applicability and universality of the new material.
[0017] In some embodiments of the present invention, the settling temperature is 18°C to 22°C; and / or, the relative humidity of the environment during settling is 50%RH to 70%RH; and / or, the curing temperature is 18°C to 22°C; and / or, the relative humidity of the curing environment is ≥95%RH. Thus, the resulting concrete can balance both strength and ductility.

Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0021] In a first aspect, the present invention proposes a low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, wherein the low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste comprises the following raw materials by weight: 250-640 parts cement, 150-250 parts silica fume, 190-210 parts fly ash microspheres, 260-650 parts phosphorus slag, 1100-1300 parts quartz sand, 10-15 parts defoamer, 12-20 parts water-reducing agent, 200-300 parts water, and 120-200 parts fiber.
[0022] For example, the weight percentages of cement can be 250 parts, 300 parts, 350 parts, 400 parts, 450 parts, 500 parts, 550 parts, 600 parts, 640 parts, etc.; the weight percentages of silica fume can be 150 parts, 175 parts, 200 parts, 225 parts, 250 parts, etc.; the weight percentages of fly ash microspheres can be 190 parts, 195 parts, 200 parts, 205 parts, 210 parts, etc.; and the weight percentages of phosphorus slag can be 260 parts, 300 parts, 350 parts, 400 parts, 450 parts, 500 parts, 550 parts, 600 parts, etc. The weight parts of the following materials can be as follows: 650 parts, etc.; the weight parts of the quartz sand can be 1100 parts, 1150 parts, 1200 parts, 1250 parts, 1300 parts, etc.; the weight parts of the defoamer can be 10 parts, 12 parts, 14 parts, 15 parts, etc.; the weight parts of the water-reducing agent can be 12 parts, 14 parts, 16 parts, 18 parts, 20 parts, etc.; the weight parts of the water can be 200 parts, 220 parts, 240 parts, 260 parts, 280 parts, 300 parts, etc.; and the weight parts of the fiber can be 120 parts, 140 parts, 160 parts, 180 parts, 200 parts, etc.
[0023] According to the above embodiments of the present invention, the low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, compared with the concrete systems of the prior art that only use a single or small amount of industrial solid waste, achieves the synergistic substitution of cement by multiple industrial solid wastes such as fly ash microspheres, silica fume, and phosphorus slag through optimized raw material ratios. The high admixture content significantly increases the application ratio of lightweight solid waste materials. This synergistic composite system fully leverages the reinforcing and synergistic properties of various solid wastes, achieving the formation of a cementitious system with balanced and complementary performance. This effectively solves the problems of low solid waste utilization and limited applicability in the prior art, significantly improving the resource utilization efficiency of industrial solid waste. Furthermore, by optimizing the mix design and process control, the present invention, without introducing a large number of porous structures, utilizes the synergistic reinforcement mechanism of ultrafine powder active components and steel fibers to prepare lightweight concrete materials with both C60 and above strength grades and low shrinkage performance, breaking through the technical bottleneck of "lightweight and strength cannot be simultaneously achieved" in the prior art. This low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete, prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, not only meets the requirements of lightweighting, but also possesses excellent crack resistance and deformation coordination due to the retarding effect of phosphorus slag on the materials in the cementitious system and the subsequent pozzolanic reaction. It is particularly suitable for the high-performance requirements of prefabricated building structural components and joint structures.
[0024] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the cement comprises P·O 52.5 grade Portland cement, wherein P·O represents "Portland Ordinary cement"; 52.5 indicates that the cement has a 28-day compressive strength of not less than 52.5 MPa under standard curing conditions. Therefore, by using the above-mentioned Portland cement, the strength and long-term stability of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste can be improved, resulting in high performance of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0025] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the mass percentage of CaO based on the total mass of the cement is 55% to 57%. For example, it can be 55%, 55.5%, 56%, 56.5%, 57%, etc. Thus, by controlling the calcium oxide content in the cement within the above range, the strength and safety of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste can be improved.
[0026] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the specific surface area of the cement is 410 m². 2 / kg~430m 2 / kg. For example, it could be 410m 2 / kg, 415m 2 / kg, 420m 2 / kg, 425m 2 / kg, 430m 2 By controlling the specific surface area of cement within the above range (e.g., / kg), the density of the paste is optimized and improved, effectively enhancing mechanical properties and shrinkage control capabilities. This constructs an internally self-compacting, highly filled cementitious system, achieving a significant reduction in self-shrinkage without the addition of shrinkage-reducing agents or expansion agents. This addresses the root cause of the problems of strong shrinkage dependence and poor long-term stability in traditional high-performance low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, thereby improving the material's strength, structural safety, and service life.
[0027] According to an embodiment of the present invention, based on the total mass of the raw materials for the low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, the sum of the mass percentages of the fly ash microspheres, the silica fume, and the phosphorus slag is 50% to 80%. For example, it can be 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, etc. The fly ash microspheres, the silica fume, and the phosphorus slag are all industrial solid wastes. By controlling the content of the above-mentioned solid wastes in the raw materials for the low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid wastes within the above range, the above-mentioned substances can synergistically replace cement, with high admixture content, significantly increasing the application ratio of lightweight solid waste materials, and having high environmental protection significance.
[0028] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the specific surface area of the silica fume is ≥1.5×10⁻⁶.4 m 2 / kg, for example, could be 1.5 × 10 4 m 2 / kg, 1.6×10 4 m 2 / kg, 1.7×10 4 m 2 / kg, 1.8×10 4 m 2 / kg, 1.9×10 4 m 2 / kg, etc., control the specific surface area of silica fume within the above range, improve the slurry density through particle size distribution optimization, effectively enhance mechanical properties and shrinkage control capabilities, and achieve a synergistic unity of low carbon and high performance.
[0029] According to an embodiment of the present invention, based on the total mass of the silica fume, the mass percentage of SiO2 is ≥85%, for example, it can be 85%, 87.5%, 90%, 92.5%, 95%, etc. By controlling the mass percentage of SiO2 in the silica fume within the above range, a high degree of compatibility between silica fume and water-reducing agent can be achieved, thereby realizing high strength and high durability of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0030] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the specific surface area of the fly ash microspheres is ≥1200 m². 2 / kg, for example, could be 1200m 2 / kg, 1300m 2 / kg, 1400m 2 / kg, 1500m 2 / kg, 1600m 2 / kg, 1700m 2 / kg, 1800m 2 / kg, 1900m 2 / kg, 2000m 2 By controlling the specific surface area of fly ash microspheres within the specified range (e.g., per kg), the particle size of the fly ash microspheres becomes smaller, which is beneficial for constructing an internally self-compacting, highly filled cementitious system. Furthermore, the fly ash microspheres are lightweight, enabling the production of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete based on multi-source industrial solid waste. This achieves the formation of a cementitious system from various raw materials, with balanced and complementary performance. It significantly reduces the self-shrinkage of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete based on multi-source industrial solid waste without adding shrinkage-reducing or expanding agents. This addresses the root cause of the strong shrinkage dependence and poor long-term stability issues inherent in traditional high-performance low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete based on multi-source industrial solid waste, thereby improving the strength and low carbon content of the concrete.
[0031] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the volume average particle size d50 of the fly ash microspheres is ≤3μm. For example, it can be 0.1μm, 0.5μm, 1μm, 1.5μm, 2μm, 2.5μm, 3μm, etc. Controlling the volume average particle size d50 of the fly ash microspheres within the above range further facilitates the construction of an intrinsically self-compacting, highly filled cementitious system. This significantly reduces self-shrinkage without adding shrinkage-reducing agents or expansion agents, fundamentally solving the problems of strong shrinkage dependence and poor long-term stability of traditional high-performance low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste. This further improves the structural safety and service life of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0032] It is understood that volume average particle size is a well-known term in the field, also known as median particle size or average particle size d50, used to represent the average particle size of powder. Physically, it means that particles smaller than this size account for 50% of the total particle volume, and particles larger than this size also account for 50% of the total particle volume. Volume average particle size can be conveniently determined using a laser particle size analyzer, such as GB / T19077-2016 "Particle Size Distribution - Laser Diffraction Method", using the Mastersizer 3000 laser particle size analyzer from Malvern Instruments Ltd., UK.
[0033] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the particle size of the quartz sand is 20 mesh to 40 mesh, for example, it can be 20 mesh, 25 mesh, 30 mesh, 35 mesh, 40 mesh, etc. Controlling the particle size of the quartz sand within the above range is beneficial to the particle size matching with other components of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste, optimizes and improves the density of the paste, effectively enhances the mechanical properties and shrinkage control capability of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste, and achieves the synergistic unity of low carbon and high performance in low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0034] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the specific surface area of the phosphorus slag is ≥350 m². 2 / kg, for example, could be 350m 2 / kg, 360m 2 / kg, 370m 2 / kg, 380m 2 / kg, 390m 2 / kg, by controlling the specific surface area of phosphorus slag within the above range, its advantages in improving later strength and durability can be maximized. It can achieve low shrinkage of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste, while controlling the risks of retarded setting and early strength loss.
[0035] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the loss on ignition of the phosphorus slag is ≤3.0%; for example, it can be 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5%, 3.0%, etc. The loss on ignition of phosphorus slag refers to the percentage of mass lost by phosphorus slag after high-temperature ignition. Controlling the loss on ignition of phosphorus slag within the above range can reduce the collapse of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste during use, reduce the carbon content of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, and improve the strength, durability, and stability of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0036] According to an embodiment of the present invention, based on the total mass of the phosphorus slag, the mass percentage of P2O3 is ≤3.5%; for example, it can be 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5%, or 3.0%. Controlling the P2O3 content in the phosphorus slag within the above range can improve the fluidity and setting time of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, and enhance the impermeability, durability, and stability of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0037] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the 7-day activity index of the phosphorus slag is ≥60%. For example, it can be 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, or 80%. Referring to the GB / T 18736 standard, the 7-day activity index is calculated as follows: Activity Index = 7-day compressive strength of reference mortar / 7-day compressive strength of test mortar × 100%. Controlling the 7-day activity index of the phosphorus slag within the above range can further improve the fluidity and setting time of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste, and enhance the impermeability, durability, and stability of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0038] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the steel fiber includes copper-plated steel fiber, which has good mechanical properties and interfacial anchoring effect. It has good dispersibility and stable interfacial bonding performance in low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste, and has high reinforcement efficiency. It can further improve the later-stage ductility and crack resistance of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste, and effectively solve the engineering problem of difficulty in achieving both strength and ductility.
[0039] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the steel fiber is in the shape of a straight rod. Straight rod steel fibers can enhance the strength of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0040] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the length of the steel fiber is 11.7mm to 14.3mm, for example, it can be 12mm, 12.5mm, 13mm, 13.5mm, 14mm, etc. Controlling the length of the steel fiber within the above range can further enhance its dispersibility and interfacial bonding performance in low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste, and further improve the later-stage ductility and crack resistance of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0041] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the effective diameter of the steel fiber is 180μm~220μm, for example, it can be 180μm, 190μm, 200μm, 210μm, 220μm, etc. Controlling the effective diameter of the steel fiber within the above range can further enhance its dispersibility and interfacial bonding performance in low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste, and further improve the later-stage ductility and crack resistance of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0042] It can be understood that the "effective diameter" (also known as the "equivalent diameter") is the calculated diameter obtained by converting a fiber of any cross-sectional shape into a circular cross-section according to the principle of equal cross-sectional area.
[0043] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the defoamer is a mixture of an inorganic carrier as a base, a liquid hydrocarbon and a polyglycerol. This composite defoamer is highly compatible with cement-based materials and can achieve instantaneous defoaming and continuous foam suppression. It can achieve multiple goals such as rapid defoaming, long-term foam suppression, convenient construction, cost optimization and green environmental protection while maintaining the mechanical properties and durability of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0044] It is understandable that inorganic carriers can include SiO2, Al2O3, bentonite, perlite, etc.; liquid hydrocarbons can include white oil, mineral oil, C12-C18 alkanes, etc.
[0045] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the water-reducing agent includes modified polycarboxylic acid. The water-reducing agent has a high compatibility with silica fume, which can further improve the strength and durability of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared based on multi-source industrial solid waste.
[0046] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the density of the water-reducing agent is 0.40 g / cm³. 3 ~0.55g / cm 3 For example, it could be 0.40 g / cm³. 3 0.42 g / cm 3 0.45g / cm 3 0.47 g / cm 3 0.5g / cm3 0.52g / cm 3 0.54 g / cm 3 0.55g / cm 3 By controlling the density of the water-reducing agent within the above range, the strength stability of low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete prepared from multi-source industrial solid waste can be further improved.
[0047] In a second aspect of the present invention, the present invention proposes a method for preparing low-carbon, low-shrinkage lightweight concrete based on multi-source industrial solid waste as described in the first aspect. Please refer to Figure 1.
