Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of building materials technology, and in particular to a lightweight thermal insulation mortar material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Building energy consumption accounts for an increasingly large proportion of my country's total energy consumption, with heat loss from walls accounting for approximately 60% of building energy consumption. The most direct way to reduce wall heat loss is to adopt thermal insulation systems with good thermal insulation performance. Traditional building external insulation systems mainly use organic insulation materials such as polystyrene boards and extruded polystyrene boards. These materials have low density and good insulation performance, but they are flammable, posing a significant fire hazard, and releasing large amounts of toxic fumes when burning, causing environmental pollution.
[0003] In recent years, the construction industry has strengthened its requirements for exterior wall insulation materials, and inorganic thermal insulation mortar materials have gradually gained popularity. However, inorganic thermal insulation mortar materials also have significant shortcomings. Existing inorganic thermal insulation mortar materials mainly use vitrified microspheres or expanded perlite as the main raw materials. However, vitrified microspheres or perlite thermal insulation mortars have high thermal conductivity, requiring a thicker insulation layer to meet energy-saving requirements, thus increasing the building load and construction difficulty. Moreover, due to the low strength and high water absorption of these lightweight aggregates, the strength of the thermal insulation mortar materials prepared from them is relatively low, making them prone to problems such as hollowing and cracking. Furthermore, their use in humid environments can affect the thermal insulation effect and structural safety of the mortar materials.
[0004] Therefore, developing a thermal insulation mortar material with excellent thermal insulation performance, high strength, simple construction, and safety and reliability is of great practical significance for the development of thermal insulation materials in the construction field. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a lightweight thermal insulation mortar material, its preparation method, and its application. The lightweight thermal insulation mortar material is prepared using cement and binder as cementitious materials; thermal insulation aggregate, quartz sand, and fiber aggregate as filler aggregate and main functional raw materials; and reinforcing agent, water-reducing agent, and stabilizer as additives. The present invention utilizes the synergistic effect of each raw material component to give the resulting lightweight thermal insulation mortar material excellent thermal insulation performance and high mechanical strength. Furthermore, the raw material components used are safe and reliable, and the material has high workability. The present invention effectively overcomes the shortcomings of existing technologies.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: The first aspect of the present invention provides a lightweight thermal insulation mortar material, comprising the following raw material components in parts by weight: 60-80 parts cement, 60-70 parts thermal insulation aggregate, 20-30 parts quartz sand, 5-10 parts fiber aggregate, 5-10 parts reinforcing agent, 1-5 parts binder, 1-3 parts water-reducing agent and 0.5-2 parts stabilizer; The thermal insulation aggregate includes silica aerogel particles, expanded vitrified microspheres, and zirconia hollow spheres with a surface coated with transition metal oxides. The fiber aggregate includes chopped wood fibers and chopped basalt fibers.
[0007] Compared to existing technologies, the lightweight thermal insulation mortar material provided by this invention comprises cement, thermal insulation aggregate, quartz sand, fiber aggregate, reinforcing agent, binder, water-reducing agent, and stabilizer. Cement and binder are cementitious materials; thermal insulation aggregate, quartz sand, and fiber aggregate are filler aggregates and main functional raw materials. The silica aerogel particles in the thermal insulation aggregate have low thermal conductivity and, together with expanded vitrified microspheres and zirconia hollow spheres coated with transition metal oxides, construct a multi-layered closed-cell structure, thereby reducing the thermal conductivity of the mortar material. The expanded vitrified microspheres are formed by the high-temperature expansion of glass microparticles, containing a closed-cell structure with low thermal conductivity. They can fill large pores and form a gradation with the silica aerogel particles and zirconia hollow spheres coated with transition metal oxides, thus achieving a good design density without increasing cement content and improving the thermal insulation performance of the mortar material. Zirconia hollow spheres coated with transition metal oxides retain the lightweight, high-temperature resistance, and low thermal conductivity of zirconia hollow spheres. Simultaneously, the high emissivity of the transition metal oxides enhances the absorption and re-radiation of radiant heat, thereby reducing the overall thermal conductivity of the material and assisting the mortar material in achieving excellent thermal insulation performance. More importantly, the raw material components in the insulating aggregate used in this invention are all lightweight inorganic materials, maintaining excellent thermal stability even at high temperatures.
[0008] Short-cut wood fibers and short-cut basalt fibers, as fiber aggregates in lightweight thermal insulation mortar, reduce the bulk density and effective thermal conductivity of the mortar by constructing multi-scale closed air gaps and tortuous heat transfer paths within the mortar through their own morphology. On the other hand, they form a uniformly distributed fiber-reinforced network in the cement matrix, which bridges and passivates microcracks, significantly improving the tensile, flexural strength, and crack resistance of the mortar. At the same time, they improve the cohesiveness and anti-sagging properties of fresh mortar, giving the resulting lightweight thermal insulation mortar excellent thermal insulation performance as well as good mechanical and construction properties.
[0009] This invention introduces reinforcing agents, binders, water-reducing agents, and stabilizers. These additives, at the microscale, respectively perform functions such as fiber reinforcement, interfacial thickening, particle dispersion, reducing the water-cement ratio, and stabilizing the system. This results in a mortar material that, while maintaining low density and low thermal conductivity, significantly improves compressive and flexural strength and crack resistance, enhances adhesion to the substrate, and possesses excellent workability. It also reduces engineering quality problems such as hollowing, cracking, and detachment, ensuring the long-term safety and stable insulation effect of the insulation layer. Utilizing the synergistic effect of the various raw material components, the resulting lightweight thermal insulation mortar material exhibits excellent thermal insulation performance, high mechanical strength, and good workability, effectively solving the problems of poor thermal insulation performance, low strength, and poor workability in existing thermal insulation mortar materials.
