Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a lignin derivative-containing dispersant composition for hydraulic compositions and a hydraulic composition containing a lignin derivative-containing dispersant. [Background technology]

[0002] Lignin is a natural polymeric substance found in trees, accounting for approximately 30% of wood. Lignin is found in large amounts in waste liquor from kraft pulp production (kraft pulp waste liquor) and waste liquor from sulfite pulp production (sulfite pulp waste liquor). From the perspective of reducing environmental impact in recent years, lignin has been attracting attention as one of the biomass resources.

[0003] Kraft lignin contained in kraft pulp waste liquor and lignosulfonic acid contained in sulfite pulp waste liquor each have different physical properties and are used for various purposes. In addition, lignin derivatives obtained by sulfomethylating kraft lignin with sulfite and formaldehyde, lignin derivatives obtained by partially desulfonating lignosulfonic acid or a salt of lignosulfonic acid, and lignin purified products obtained by ultrafiltration are widely used as lignin-based dispersants in a wide range of industrial fields, such as dyes, cement, inorganic pigments, organic pigments, gypsum, coal-water slurries, agricultural chemicals, and ceramics.

[0004] As a dispersant for hydraulic compositions such as cement, Patent Documents 1 and 2 disclose a polymer-shaped cement dispersant containing a lignin derivative containing lignin sulfonic acid or a salt thereof, and a copolymer of an acrylic acid and / or methacrylic acid derivative.

[0005] Patent Document 3 discloses a dispersant for hydraulic compositions, which contains Component A, which is water having an oxidation-reduction potential of 0 mV or more at 25° C.; Component B, which is at least one selected from (a) a polycarboxylic acid-based dispersant and (b) a lignin sulfonic acid-based dispersant; and Component C, which is an antiseptic component.

Effect of the Invention

[0009] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a lignin derivative-containing dispersant composition for hydraulic compositions, which is excellent in bleeding rate, flow, etc. Also, it is possible to provide a hydraulic composition containing the lignin derivative-containing dispersant composition of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0010] The dispersant composition for hydraulic compositions of the present invention comprises the following components (A) and (B): (A) Component: Lignin derivative. (B) Ingredients: General formula (b1) [ka] [In the formula, M b represents a hydrogen atom, an alkali metal, an alkaline earth metal (1 / 2 atom), ammonium, or an organic ammonium. A structural unit (B1) represented by the formula: General formula (b2) [ka] [In the formula, R 2brepresents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms. X b represents an alkylene group or a carbonyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms. nb represents the average number of moles added, which is 5 to 200. R 3b represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms. and optionally a structural unit (B2) represented by the general formula (b3) [ka] [In the formula, R 4b represents an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms or a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms which may contain a heteroatom.] The copolymer includes a structural unit (B3) represented by the following formula:

[0011] The dispersant composition for hydraulic compositions of the present invention contains a lignin derivative as component (A). Examples of the lignin derivative include pulp lignin such as kraft lignin, soda lignin, and lignosulfonic acid, lignophenol, phenolized lignin, and modified lignin. Kraft lignin is a lignin derivative whose molecular structure is modified after carbohydrates such as cellulose are extracted from wood in the paper and pulp industry. Lignosulfonic acid is a polymer electrolyte with functional groups such as sulfonic acid, carboxyl acid, and phenolic hydroxyl acid, and there are no particular limitations on its molecular weight or manufacturing method. Lignophenol can be obtained, for example, by treating lignin in lignocellulosic materials with a phenol derivative. There is no particular restriction on the structure. Phenolized lignin is lignin in a stabilized state in which a phenol derivative is chemically bonded to the molecular chains of lignin when lignin and cellulose are separated by treating a plant material with an acid. Modified lignin is lignin with polyethylene glycol chains attached to the backbone of the lignin. Of these, lignosulfonic acid and / or its salts are preferred.

[0012] It is difficult to uniformly specify the chemical structure of lignosulfonic acid and / or its salts by a general formula or the like, because lignin, which is the skeleton of lignosulfonic acid, has a very complex molecular structure.

[0013] The lignin sulfonic acid and / or its salt may be prepared or may be a commercially available product. Here, the preparation method of the lignin derivative is exemplified below. However, the lignin sulfonic acid and / or its salt is not limited to those prepared by the preparation method described below.

[0014] Examples of methods for preparing lignosulfonic acid and / or a salt thereof include a method in which a lignocellulosic raw material is subjected to a sulfite treatment, preferably a method in which a lignocellulosic raw material is subjected to a sulfite cooking treatment.

[0015] The lignocellulose raw material is not particularly limited as long as it contains lignocellulose in the structure, and examples thereof include pulp raw materials such as wood and non-wood. Examples of wood include coniferous trees such as Yezo spruce, red pine, cedar, and cypress, and broad-leaved trees such as white birch and beech. The age and location of the wood are not important. Therefore, wood harvested from trees of different ages or from different locations of a tree may be used in combination. Non-wood materials include, for example, bamboo, kenaf, reed, and rice. The lignocellulosic raw material may be one of these materials, or two or more of them may be used in combination.

[0016] The sulfite treatment can be carried out by contacting at least one of sulfurous acid and a sulfite salt with a lignocellulosic raw material to obtain an intermediate product. The conditions for the sulfite treatment are not particularly limited as long as they allow introduction of a sulfonic acid (salt) group to the α-carbon atom of the side chain of lignin contained in the lignocellulosic raw material.

[0017] The sulfite treatment is preferably carried out by a sulfite cooking method, which allows more quantitative sulfonation of the lignin in the lignocellulosic raw material. The sulfite cooking method is a method in which lignocellulosic raw materials are reacted at high temperatures in a solution of at least one of sulfurous acid and a sulfite salt (e.g., an aqueous solution: cooking liquor). This method has been established and is being used industrially as a method for producing sulfite pulp. Therefore, by carrying out the sulfite treatment by the sulfite cooking method, it is possible to improve the economic efficiency and ease of implementation.

[0018] When sulfite cooking is carried out, examples of the sulfite salt include magnesium salts, calcium salts, sodium salts and ammonium salts.

[0019] There is no limitation on the equipment used in the sulfite treatment, and for example, generally known dissolving pulp manufacturing equipment can be used.

[0020] The intermediate product may be separated from the solution of at least one of sulfurous acid and sulfite salt according to a conventional method, for example, a method for separating the sulfurous acid pulping wastewater after sulfurous acid pulping.

[0021] Next, the intermediate composition is washed and dehydrated to obtain a sulfite-treated product. By washing and dehydrating, components contained in the intermediate composition that cannot be completely removed by the sulfite treatment can be removed.

[0022] The washing may be carried out in the same manner as the washing of unbleached sulfite pulp obtained by the sulfite cooking method. The washing may be a single-stage washing or a multi-stage washing. By carrying out multi-stage washing, the washing can be carried out sufficiently. When carrying out multi-stage washing, dehydration may be carried out each time, or may be carried out only for some of the times. Washing is usually performed using a washing machine. The washing machine used for washing is not particularly limited. For example, a displacement washing type washing machine and a dilution dehydration washing type washing machine can be mentioned.

[0023] The dehydration can be carried out under ordinary conditions, for example, in the same manner as in the dehydration of unbleached sulfite pulp after washing obtained in the sulfite cooking method. Dehydration is usually performed using a dehydrator. The type of dehydrator used for dehydration is not particularly limited. Examples of the dehydrator include a drum-type squeezer dehydrator, a rotary press, and a continuous squeezer dehydrator.

[0024] The sulfite-treated product is then washed and dehydrated, and separated and purified to obtain the desired lignin derivative. Examples of the separation and purification include an alkaline oxidation treatment step and an ultrafiltration treatment step.

[0025] When the alkaline oxidation treatment is carried out, after the sulfite-treated product is subjected to the alkaline oxidation treatment, insoluble matters can be centrifuged and recovered as a supernatant.

[0026] The alkaline oxidation treatment can be carried out by placing the sulfurous acid-treated product under alkaline conditions. Placing under alkaline conditions usually means placing the product in an aqueous solution having a pH value of 8 or more, preferably a pH value of 9 or more. The upper limit of the pH value is usually 14.

[0027] In the alkaline oxidation treatment, an alkaline substance is usually brought into contact with the sulfite treatment product. The alkaline substance is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include calcium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, and ammonia. Among these, sodium hydroxide is preferred. The alkaline substances may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
