Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of building waterproofing and leak-stopping materials, specifically relating to a leak-stopping material and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] During construction and service, concrete structures are prone to developing micro-cracks due to factors such as temperature stress, load changes, and shrinkage deformation. If these cracks are not sealed in time, moisture can seep into the structure, leading to steel corrosion and concrete carbonation, severely impacting the structure's durability and safety. As the core material for solving leakage problems, the performance of leak-sealing materials directly determines the durability of the sealing effect.
[0003] There are many types of existing leak-sealing materials. Traditional cement-based leak-sealing materials, while low in cost and compatible with concrete substrates, have high porosity and water absorption, making them susceptible to erosion in humid or corrosive environments, leading to leak-sealing failure. Polyurethane materials, although possessing certain impermeability, lack chemical stability in harsh corrosive environments such as strong acids and alkalis, and are prone to aging and degradation with long-term use. Furthermore, some products exhibit significant brittleness and poor deformation resistance after curing. Acrylic grouting materials have limited temperature resistance, making it difficult to maintain stable leak-sealing effects in high-temperature corrosive environments.
[0004] Developing a leak-sealing material that combines extremely low water absorption, excellent corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties, and durability to adapt to complex and harsh leakage environments has become an urgent technical problem to be solved in this field.

Detailed Implementation
[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0019] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.
[0020] This invention addresses the problem that existing cement-based sealing materials have poor sealing performance in complex leakage environments by providing a sealing material.
[0021] The leak-sealing material of this invention includes: powder and liquid; by weight, the powder includes: 40-60 parts of sulfoaluminate cement (e.g., 40, 45, 50, 55, or 60 parts), 10-20 parts of ordinary silicate cement (e.g., 10, 13, 16, 18, or 20 parts), 15-25 parts of composite filler (e.g., 15, 17, 20, 23, or 25 parts), and ettringite precursor. 3.0-5.0 parts (e.g., 3 parts, 3.5 parts, 4 parts, 4.5 parts, or 5 parts), 0.04-0.1 parts (e.g., 0.04 parts, 0.05 parts, 0.06 parts, 0.07 parts, 0.08 parts, 0.09 parts, or 0.1 parts) of water-reducing agent, and 0.05-0.1 parts (e.g., 0.05 parts, 0.06 ... 7 parts, 0.08 parts, 0.09 parts, or 0.1 parts) and 1.0-3.0 parts (e.g., 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, or 3.0 parts) of penetrating crystallizing active powder; by weight, the liquid component includes: 50-95 parts (e.g., 50, 60, 70, 80, 85, or 95 parts) of deionized water and 5-50 parts (e.g., 5, 10, 20, 30, or 40 parts) of silicone-acrylic antipermeation emulsion. (or 50 parts); the composite filler is fly ash modified with a silane coupling agent (the fly ash modified with a silane coupling agent forms chemical bonds on a smooth surface, which helps to prevent agglomeration; and it can form physical and chemical crosslinks with organic materials and substrates to form an organic-inorganic interpenetrating network structure, reducing total porosity and enhancing interfacial strength), and the particle size of the composite filler is 5-10 μm (e.g., 5 μm, 6 μm, 7 μm, 8 μm, 9 μm or 10 μm).
[0022] In the sealing material of this invention, the core mineral of sulfoaluminate cement, anhydrous calcium sulfoaluminate (C4A3S), hydrates upon contact with water to form aluminum gel, while the tricalcium silicate (C3S) and dicalcium silicate (C2S) in ordinary silicate cement hydrate rapidly to generate calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2). This calcium hydroxide participates in the conversion reaction of aluminum gel to hydrated calcium sulfoaluminate (CAH) gel, accelerating the hydration process of anhydrous calcium sulfoaluminate and disrupting the hydration balance of ordinary silicate cement due to the consumption of calcium hydroxide. This further promotes the hydration of its own C3S, C2S, and other minerals, significantly increasing the overall hydration rate of the system and shortening the setting time. Furthermore, sulfoaluminate cement suffers from the problem of easy strength reduction in the later stages, while ordinary silicate cement exhibits stable strength development and continuous strength growth in the later stages. When ordinary silicate cement is used to replace part of sulfoaluminate cement, the CSH gel generated by its hydration can fill the tiny cracks that may be generated later, improving the density of the sealing material. On the other hand, it can make up for the lack of hydration power of sulfoaluminate cement in the later stage, so that the composite system not only has high early strength, but also steadily improves mechanical properties at long-term ages such as 28 days, avoiding strength shrinkage.
[0023] In the sealing material of this invention, the silicone-acrylic anti-permeability emulsion can form an organic-inorganic interpenetrating network structure within the cement-based material. This organic-inorganic interpenetrating network structure can fill the capillary channels of the cement-based material, allowing corrosive media (H...) to... + OH - Cl - The infiltration path of (etc.) becomes tortuous and narrow, the diffusion rate is greatly reduced, and a physical barrier is formed.
[0024] In a preferred embodiment of the sealing material of the present invention, the composite filler is prepared by a method comprising the following steps: mixing fly ash with a silane coupling agent solution, adding an ethanol solution, stirring and reacting at 60-70°C (e.g., 60°C, 62°C, 64°C, 66°C, 68°C or 70°C) for 2-3 hours (e.g., 2 hours, 2.2 hours, 2.4 hours, 2.6 hours, 2.8 hours or 3 hours), filtering and drying to obtain the composite filler.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment of the sealing material of the present invention, the silane coupling agent is KH-570, the concentration of the silane coupling agent solution is 0.5wt%-2.0wt% (e.g., 0.5wt%, 1wt%, 1.5wt%, or 2wt%), and the mass ratio of fly ash to silane coupling agent solution is 100:3; the volume ratio of ethanol to water in the ethanol solution is 3:1, and the volume ratio of ethanol solution to silane coupling agent solution is 100:5. If the amount of silane coupling agent is too small, the surface activation degree will be low; if the amount of silane coupling agent is too large, the cost will increase, and multilayer physical adsorption will form on the fly ash surface, resulting in a weak layer between the fly ash and the organic polymer, which will prevent the fly ash from functioning as a single-molecule bridge.
[0026] In a preferred embodiment of the sealing material of the present invention, the sulfoaluminate cement grade is [missing information]. 42.5, the grade of ordinary Portland cement is 42.5; The mass ratio of sulfoaluminate cement to ordinary silicate cement is (3.0-5.0):1 (e.g., 3.0:1, 3.5:1, 4.0:1, 4.5:1 or 5.0:1).
[0027] In a preferred embodiment of the sealing material of the present invention, the ettringite precursor is a mixture of anhydrous aluminum sulfate and calcium hydroxide, wherein the mass ratio of anhydrous aluminum sulfate to calcium hydroxide is (1.3-1.5):1 (e.g., 1.3:1, 1.4:1, or 1.5:1). The ettringite precursor acts as a nucleation site for ettringite, accelerating the hydration reaction process, promoting the rapid formation of hydration products, and shortening the setting time. If the amount of ettringite precursor is too small, the rapid hardening and setting effect will not be achieved. If the amount of ettringite precursor is too large, the setting time will be too fast, causing expansion cracking, structural damage, and affecting the sealing effect.
[0028] In a preferred embodiment of the sealing material of the present invention, the penetrating crystallizing active powder is obtained by mixing the following raw materials in the following mass percentages: 35%-40% sodium sulfate (e.g., 35%, 36%, 37%, 38%, 39% or 40%), 5%-10% sodium carbonate (e.g., 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9% or 10%), 10%-15% lithium carbonate (e.g., 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14% or 15%), 8%-12% tetrasodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate (e.g., 8%, 9%, 10%, 11% or 12%), 30%-35% sodium silicate (e.g., 30%, 31%, 32%, 33%, 34% or 35%), and 0.1%-0.5% sodium diisobutylnaphthalenesulfonate (e.g., 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4% or 0.5%).
[0029] In the sealing material of this invention: cement hydration produces a large amount of Ca(OH)2, and Ca(OH)2 crystals dissolve upon contact with water, thereby ionizing Ca... 2+ The active chemicals in the penetrating crystallizing active powder (e.g., sodium sulfate, lithium carbonate, anhydrous sodium silicate), carried by water, penetrate into the interior of the sealing material through the capillaries and microcracks. Simultaneously, sodium diisobutylnaphthalene sulfonate reduces the surface tension of water, allowing the active chemicals to disperse more quickly and evenly into the pores and cracks within the sealing material. There, they react chemically with free calcium ions in the pore water solution, forming water-insoluble crystals such as CSH gel, CAH gel, and CaCO3 crystals. At the same time, the complexing agent (tetrasodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate) in the penetrating crystallizing active powder diffuses into the concrete and first reacts with free calcium ions... 2+The mixture combines to form unstable, water-soluble complexes. When these complexes encounter free silicate or aluminate ions, the active chemical groups are replaced, leading to the formation of CSH and CAH gels that block pores and cracks. The released active chemical groups then penetrate deeper into the concrete with water molecules, combining again with calcium ions to form complexes. This process repeats, continuously generating crystals that enhance the density of the sealing material, reduce its water absorption, and achieve long-lasting waterproofing.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment of the sealing material of the present invention, the mass ratio of liquid to powder is 0.30-0.35 (e.g., 0.30, 0.31, 0.32, 0.33, 0.34 or 0.35).
[0031] In a preferred embodiment of the sealing material of the present invention, the silicone-acrylic anti-permeability emulsion is prepared by a method comprising the following steps: A1. KH-570 silane coupling agent solution is added dropwise to a silane emulsion at 25-30°C (e.g., 25°C, 26°C, 27°C, 28°C, 29°C, or 30°C); A2. The temperature is raised to 70-80°C (e.g., 70°C, 72°C, 74°C, 76°C, 78°C, or 80°C), and an acrylic emulsion is added dropwise. After the addition is completed, stirring is continued (to promote local cross-linking of some silane and acrylic molecules) to obtain a compound emulsion; A3. The temperature is lowered to 60-70°C (e.g., 60°C, 62°C, 64°C, 66°C, 68°C, or 70°C), and a n-propyl zirconate solution is added to the compound emulsion and stirred to react; A4. After cooling, a thickener is added to adjust the viscosity, and the mixture is allowed to mature to obtain the silicone-acrylic anti-permeability emulsion.
[0032] Among them, silicone-acrylic antipermeable emulsions possess excellent resistance to acid, alkali, and salt corrosion. The core principle is the synergistic effect of physical barrier properties and chemical stabilization mechanisms. Silicone-acrylic antipermeable emulsions can form an organic-inorganic interpenetrating network structure within cement-based materials. For example, when n-butyltriethoxysilane is used as the silane emulsion, the hydrolysis of n-butyltriethoxysilane generates silanol groups (-SiOH), which undergo condensation reactions with the hydroxyl groups of cement hydration products (such as CSH gel and Ca(OH)2) to form stable Si-O-Ca chemical bonds. Simultaneously, the silanol groups themselves condense to form a Si-O-Si inorganic network (forming a siloxane hydrophobic layer), filling the capillary pores of the cement-based material. Acrylic emulsions (preferably styrene-acrylic emulsions) form a continuous organic polymer film in the pores of the cement-based material, interpenetrating with the inorganic network of silanes, further blocking the pores (cutting off the channels between the pores and the outside, acting as a seal), reducing the porosity and connectivity of the material (reducing the channels for water to penetrate into the concrete). The interpenetrating network structure allows corrosive media (H... + OH - Cl - The infiltration path of (etc.) becomes tortuous and narrow, the diffusion rate is greatly reduced, and a physical barrier is formed.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment of the sealing material of the present invention, in step A1, the silane emulsion is n-butyltriethoxysilane emulsion, and the acrylic emulsion is styrene-acrylic emulsion; in step A1, the mass percentage of the n-butyltriethoxysilane emulsion is 15%-20%, the mass of the KH-570 silane coupling agent solution is 0.5%-1.5% of the mass of the silane emulsion, and the concentration is 0.5wt%-2.0wt% (e.g., 0.5wt%, 1.0wt%, 1.5wt%, or 2.0wt%); in step A2, when adding the acrylic emulsion, 20% of the total amount of acrylic emulsion is added each time, and the time interval between two adjacent additions is 10-15 minutes (e.g., 10 minutes, 11 minutes, 12 minutes, 13 minutes, 14 minutes, or 15 minutes). After the addition is complete, continue stirring for 1-1.5 hours (e.g., 1 hour, 1.1 hours, 1.2 hours, 1.3 hours, 1.4 hours, or 1.5 hours); in step A3, the concentration of the n-propyl zirconate solution is 70 wt%, the mass of the n-propyl zirconate solution is 0.2% of the sum of the masses of the silane emulsion and the acrylic emulsion, and the stirring reaction time is 1-1.5 hours (to promote partial cross-linking of some silane and acrylic molecules; e.g., 1 hour, 1.1 hours, 1.2 hours, 1.3 hours, 1.4 hours, or 1.5 hours); in step A4, the mass of the thickener is 0.1% of the sum of the masses of the silane emulsion and the acrylic emulsion; the mass percentage of the silicone-acrylic antipermeable emulsion in the liquid is 20%-40% (e.g., 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, or 40%).
[0034] Preferably, the acrylic emulsion has a mass percentage of 40%-50%, and the mass ratio of the acrylic emulsion to the n-butyltriethoxysilane emulsion is 5:2.
[0035] The Si-O bond energy of n-butyltriethoxysilane (452 kJ / mol) is much higher than that of C-C bonds (347 kJ / mol) and CO bonds (358 kJ / mol), making it less prone to breakage in acidic and alkaline environments. The hydrophobic n-butyl long chains are oriented along the pore walls, reducing contact between the corrosive medium and the substrate. Styrene-acrylic emulsion is used as the acrylic emulsion; the conjugated structure of the benzene ring enhances the polymer's chemical stability, exhibiting stronger alkali resistance and oxidation resistance compared to pure acrylic emulsion. The Si-O network of the compounded silane protects the acrylic acid molecular chains, preventing saponification and hydrolysis in strongly alkaline environments. The silane coupling agent (KH-570) forms a chemical bridge between the silane and acrylic acid, while the chemical bonding between the silane and the cementitious material enhances interfacial adhesion. Even under long-term immersion in corrosive media, the coating or modified layer will not peel off, preventing the corrosive medium from penetrating through the interface.
[0036] The present invention also proposes a method for preparing a sealing material. The method for preparing the sealing material in the embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps: (1) adding sulfoaluminate cement, ordinary silicate cement, composite filler, ettringite precursor, water-reducing agent and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether into a mixer and mixing them evenly to obtain powder; (2) mixing the liquid material and the powder material in proportion to obtain the sealing material.
[0037] In a preferred embodiment of the method for preparing the sealing material of the present invention, in step (1), the mixing speed is 500-700 r / min (e.g., 500 r / min, 550 r / min, 600 r / min, 650 r / min or 700 r / min), and the mixing time is 10-15 min (e.g., 10 min, 11 min, 12 min, 13 min, 14 min or 15 min); the penetrating crystallizing active powder is obtained by adding sodium sulfate, sodium carbonate, lithium carbonate, sodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, sodium silicate and sodium diisobutylnaphthalenesulfonate into a mixer and mixing at a speed of 500-700 r / min (e.g., 500 r / min, 550 r / min, 600 r / min, 650 r / min or 700 r / min) for 10-15 min (e.g., 10 min, 11 min, 12 min, 13 min, 14 min or 15 min).

[0046] Example 4 The only difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the mass ratio of silicone-acrylic antipermeable emulsion to deionized water is 1:19; all other aspects are the same as in Embodiment 1.

[0048] The performance of the sealing material in this comparative example was tested, and the test results are shown in Table 1 below: Table 1
[0049] Note: In the wet-dry cycle test results, "cracking", "peeling" and "detachment" represent three different degrees of damage.
[0050] Comparative Example 2 In this comparative example of a penetrating crystallization sealing material, the powder, by mass parts, includes: fly ash (the mass of fly ash is set to 10 parts, 5 parts, 0 parts, 0 parts, and 0 parts respectively), composite filler (the corresponding mass of composite filler is 10 parts, 15 parts, 20 parts, 25 parts, and 30 parts respectively), 3.5 parts of ettringite precursor, 0.05 parts of polycarboxylate superplasticizer, and 0.05 parts of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether. Correspondingly, the sum of the masses of sulfoaluminate cement and ordinary silicate cement is 76.4 parts, 76.4 parts, 76.4 parts, 71.4 parts (when the amount of composite filler is 25 parts), and 66.4 parts (when the amount of composite filler is 30 parts), with a mass ratio of sulfoaluminate cement to ordinary silicate cement of 4.5:1.
[0051] The composite filler was prepared by the following steps: fly ash microspheres with a particle size of 5-10 μm were mixed with a KH-570 silane coupling agent solution with a concentration of 1.0 wt% at a mass ratio of 100:3. An ethanol aqueous solution was added (ethanol to water volume ratio of 3:1, and ethanol aqueous solution to silane coupling agent solution volume ratio of 100:5). The mixture was stirred and reacted at 70°C for 3 hours. After the reaction was completed, the mixture was filtered and dried to obtain the composite filler.
[0052] Liquid material: deionized water; the mass ratio of powder to liquid material is 1:0.35.
[0053] The performance of the sealing material in this comparative example was tested, and the test results are shown in Table 2 below: Table 2
[0054] Comparative Example 3 The components of the sealing material in this comparative example include powder and liquid. By weight percentage, the powder comprises: 20 parts of sulfoaluminate cement, ordinary silicate cement, composite filler (the same as the composite filler in Example 3), 3.5 parts of ettringite precursor, 0.05 parts of polycarboxylate superplasticizer, 0.05 parts of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose ether, and penetrating crystallizing active powder. The mass fractions of the penetrating crystallizing active powder were set to 1.0, 1.5, 2, 2.5, and 3.0 parts, respectively, and the corresponding total mass fractions of sulfoaluminate cement and ordinary silicate cement (the mass ratio of sulfoaluminate cement to ordinary silicate cement was 4.5:1) were set to 75.45, 74.95, 74.4, 73.95, and 73.45 parts, respectively. The penetrating crystallization active powder includes: 38% sodium sulfate, 7.5% sodium carbonate, 12% lithium carbonate, 12% tetrasodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, 30% sodium silicate, and 0.5% sodium diisobutylnaphthalene sulfonate. Liquid material: deionized water; the mass ratio of powder to liquid material is 1:0.35.
[0055] The performance of the sealing material in this comparative example was tested, and the test results are shown in Table 3 below: Table 3
[0056] Comparative Example 4 The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the liquid used is different (the components of the liquid in this comparative example include deionized water and silicone-acrylic antipermeable emulsion; in the liquid of this comparative example, the mass ratio of silicone-acrylic antipermeable emulsion to deionized water is 1:1); all other aspects are the same as in Example 1.
[0057] The mass ratio of powder to liquid is 1:0.35.
[0058] The performance of the sealing materials in Examples 1-4 and this comparative example was tested, and the test results are shown in Table 4 below: Table 4
[0059] Comparative Example 5 The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is the liquid used. The liquid in this comparative example consists of deionized water and acrylic emulsion (the mass ratio of acrylic emulsion to deionized water in this comparative example is 1:1, 1:4, 1:9, 1:14, and 1:19). Everything else is the same as in Example 1.
[0060] The mass ratio of powder to liquid is 1:0.35.
[0061] The performance of the sealing material in this comparative example was tested, and the test results are shown in Table 5 below: Table 5
[0062] Comparative Example 6 The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is the liquid used. The liquid in this comparative example consists of deionized water and n-butyltriethoxysilane emulsion. (In this comparative example, the mass ratio of n-butyltriethoxysilane emulsion to deionized water is 1:1, 1:4, 1:9, 1:14, and 1:19. The liquid is obtained by stirring evenly with a high-speed mixer.) All other aspects are the same as in Example 1.
[0063] The mass ratio of powder to liquid is 1:0.35.
[0064] The performance of the sealing material in this comparative example was tested, and the test results are shown in Table 6 below: Table 6
[0065] Comparative Examples 5-6 were used to test various properties of the materials when acrylic emulsion and n-butyltriethoxysilane emulsion were used instead of the silicone acrylic emulsion in Example 1. The water absorption performance of Comparative Examples 5-6 was significantly worse than that of Example 1, and the performance of wet-dry cycle and freeze-thaw cycle was also poor when the amount of emulsion was small. This proves that the silicone acrylic antipermeable emulsion technology in this invention can better improve water absorption and enhance durability.
[0066] Experiments were conducted on Comparative Example 1 (mass ratio of sulfoaluminate cement to ordinary silicate cement was 4.5:1), Comparative Example 2 (20 parts of composite filler), Comparative Example 3 (2 parts of penetrating crystallizing active powder), Example 1 and Comparative Example 5 (mass ratio of acrylic emulsion to deionized water was 1:14), and Comparative Example 6 (mass ratio of n-butyltriethoxysilane emulsion to deionized water was 1:19) to test the 90-day sulfate attack resistance coefficient and 28-day chloride ion diffusion coefficient of each group of materials. The test results are shown in Table 7: Table 7
[0067] As can be seen from the test results in the table above, after the combined effects of composite filler, penetrating crystallizing active powder, and silicone-acrylic antipermeable emulsion, Example 1, compared to Comparative Example 1, showed a 33.8% increase in sulfate resistance coefficient and an 88.5% decrease in chloride ion diffusion coefficient. This indicates that the modified plugging material has a dense internal porosity and that the silicone-acrylic antipermeable emulsion outperforms both single acrylic emulsions and n-butyltriethoxysilane emulsions. The resulting polymer film effectively blocks the penetration channels of corrosive media, resisting the intrusion of external moisture, chloride ions, sulfate ions, and other corrosive media, thus significantly enhancing the material's antipermeability and durability. This is consistent with the high sulfate resistance coefficient and low chloride ion diffusion coefficient results shown in Example 1 in Table 7, further verifying the crucial role of the liquid composition and ratio in improving the overall protective effect of the material.

Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
