Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a dispersant composition for a hydraulic composition for centrifugal molding and a method for producing the same, a hydraulic composition for centrifugal molding, and a method for producing a hardened product of the hydraulic composition. [Background technology]

[0002] Centrifugal molding is a known method for producing hollow cylindrical concrete products such as pipes, piles, poles, etc. In this method, mixed concrete material is poured into a formwork, which is then rotated at high speed to generate centrifugal force that presses the concrete against the inner surface of the formwork, thereby compacting it. Forming by centrifugal molding is carried out before the unhardened concrete hardens, but in production lines where high temperatures, tight production schedules, and time is required to prepare the formwork, the time required from mixing to centrifugal molding increases, and it is known that the fluidity of the concrete deteriorates over time, and the concrete does not reach every corner of the formwork, often resulting in poor molding and defects. Therefore, there is a demand for a hydraulic composition for centrifugal molding that exhibits better formability within a certain period of time after mixing (for example, 15 to 60 minutes).

Patent Document 3 discloses a dispersant for hydraulic compositions containing a copolymer obtained by polymerizing a monomer containing a specific monomer 1 represented by general formula (1) and a specific monomer 2 represented by general formula (2) with a specific monomer 3 represented by general formula (3), wherein the ratios of the monomer 1, the monomer 2, and the monomer 3 among the constituent monomers of the copolymer are each within a specific range. Patent Document 4 discloses a dispersion-retaining agent for hydraulic compositions, which comprises a copolymer having a weight-average molecular weight of 30,000 to 60,000 obtained by polymerizing specific monomer 1 represented by general formula (1), specific monomer 2 represented by general formula (2), and specific monomer 3 represented by general formula (3), in which the constituent monomers of the copolymer are 25 to 78% by weight of monomer 1 and 0 to 18% by weight of monomer 3.

[0015] According to the present invention, there are provided a dispersant composition for hydraulic compositions for centrifugal molding, which allows the hydraulic composition to exhibit better moldability for a certain period of time after kneading, a method for producing the same, a hydraulic composition for centrifugal molding, which allows the hydraulic composition to exhibit better moldability for a certain period of time after kneading, and a method for producing a hardened hydraulic composition. This certain period of time is, for example, from 15 to 60 minutes after kneading (meaning from the time when water first comes into contact with the hydraulic powder; the same applies hereinafter). DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0016] The present inventors have found that when a dispersant composition for hydraulic compositions for centrifugal molding containing component (A), which is a copolymer containing the monomer (A1), the monomer (A2), and the monomer (A3) as constituent monomers in a specific ratio, is used in a hydraulic composition for centrifugal molding, the moldability of the hydraulic composition is improved for a certain period of time (for example, 15 minutes or more and 60 minutes or less) after kneading. The reason why such an effect is exhibited is not entirely clear, but is presumed to be as follows. Component (A), a copolymer containing the monomers (A1), (A2), and (A3) in a specific ratio as constituent monomers, exhibits low adsorption to cement particles at the beginning of mixing, resulting in a larger amount of component (A) remaining in the bulk water than with typical polycarboxylic acid dispersants. This remaining component (A) gradually adsorbs to the cement particles over time, maintaining the dispersion of the cement particles and the fluidity of the concrete, which is thought to result in the hydraulic composition exhibiting superior formability for a certain period of time (e.g., 15 to 60 minutes) after mixing.

[0086] In step 1, a method of adding a mixture containing water, component (A), optional component (B), and optional component (C) to a mixture containing aggregate and hydraulic powder and mixing them is preferred because it allows for easy and uniform mixing even when producing a hydraulic composition.

[0087] A specific method for step 1 includes mixing hydraulic powder and aggregate, adding a mixture containing water, component (A), optional component (B), and optional component (C) in the amounts described above, and kneading to prepare a hydraulic composition.

[0088] In step 1, component (A), optional component (B), and optional component (C) can be added separately to water, hydraulic powder, and aggregate and mixed.

[0089] In step 1, the method of filling the obtained hydraulic composition into the form may be a method in which the kneaded hydraulic composition is discharged from the kneading means and manually poured into the form and leveled.

[0090] In step 2, the hydraulic composition filled in the form is clamped by applying centrifugal force, and it is preferable to change the centrifugal force at least once. In step 2, the hydraulic composition can be clamped by applying centrifugal force that changes stepwise. That is, in step 2, the hydraulic composition is clamped at least once by changing the centrifugal force, and further, the hydraulic composition can be clamped by applying centrifugal force that changes stepwise and becomes even larger stepwise.

[0091] In step 2, the hydraulic composition filled in the formwork is preferably clamped under a centrifugal force of 0.5 G or more. The centrifugal force in centrifugal molding is preferably 0.5 G or more and preferably 30 G or less, more preferably 25 G or less. From the viewpoints of energy cost reduction and moldability, it is preferable to maintain the centrifugal force in the range of 15 G or more and 30 G or less, further 25 G or less (also called high centrifugal force) for 1 minute or more.

[0092] Compaction by centrifugal force is carried out, for example, at a centrifugal force of 0.5 G or more and 30 G or less, for preferably 5 minutes or more, more preferably 7 minutes or more, even more preferably 9 minutes or more, and preferably 40 minutes or less. From the viewpoint of compacting the green body smoothly, compaction by maintaining a high centrifugal force, for example, a centrifugal force of 20 G or more, is carried out for preferably 1 minute or more, more preferably 3 minutes or more, even more preferably 5 minutes or more, and preferably 15 minutes or less. That is, in step 3, the hydraulic composition can be clamped in the mold at a centrifugal force of 0.5 G or more and 30 G or less, for preferably 5 minutes or more, more preferably 7 minutes or more, even more preferably 9 minutes or more, and preferably 40 minutes or less. Also, in step 3, compaction by maintaining a centrifugal force of 20 G or more can be carried out for preferably 1 minute or more, more preferably 3 minutes or more, even more preferably 5 minutes or more, and preferably 15 minutes or less.

[0093] Compaction using centrifugal force can be performed in stages, and from the viewpoint of formability, a method in which the centrifugal force G is increased stepwise is preferred. Compaction can be performed under the following step conditions until the desired centrifugal force is achieved. For example, in the case of five stages, in step 3, it is preferable to clamp the hydraulic composition under the following conditions: (1) in the first stage, a centrifugal force of 0.5 G or more but less than 2 G is used at an initial speed for more than 0 minutes and not more than 15 minutes; (2) in the second stage, a centrifugal force of 2 G or more but less than 5 G is used at a second speed for more than 0 minutes and not more than 15 minutes; (3) in the third stage, a centrifugal force of 5 G or more but less than 10 G is used at a third speed for more than 0 minutes and not more than 15 minutes; (4) in the fourth stage, a centrifugal force of 10 G or more but less than 20 G is used at a fourth speed for more than 0 minutes and not more than 15 minutes; and (5) in the fifth stage, a centrifugal force of 20 G or more but less than 30 G is used at a fifth speed for more than 0 minutes and not more than 15 minutes.

[0094] In step 3, the hydraulic composition obtained in step 2 is solidified. Specifically, the composition is cured in air for 3 to 4 hours after mixing.

[0095] In step 4, the hardened hydraulic composition placed in the form obtained in step 3 is steam cured. In step 4, steam curing is preferably carried out at a temperature of 40°C or higher and 90°C or lower, and more preferably at a temperature of 60°C or higher and 90°C or lower. Furthermore, in step 4, steam curing is preferably carried out after pre-curing. For example, the ambient temperature of the formwork filled with the hydraulic composition (hereinafter sometimes referred to as ambient temperature) can be set to room temperature, preferably from 10°C to 40°C, and pre-curing can be carried out by leaving it for from 1 hour to 4 hours, and then steam curing can be carried out by setting the ambient temperature to from 40°C to 90°C, or further to from 60°C to 90°C. Pre-curing was carried out as a "preliminary" step in the examples and comparative examples described below. The pre-curing is preferably for 1 hour or more from the viewpoint of suppressing a decrease in strength due to cracking of the hardened body. Furthermore, when the method for producing a cured body of the present invention includes step 5, steps 4 and 5 can be carried out consecutively under a series of temperature controls. Steam curing is performed by applying steam to the periphery of a form filled with a hydraulic composition and maintaining the temperature at a predetermined level for a certain period of time. After the application of steam, the steam curing period may be (1) a temperature increase period until the temperature reaches the predetermined level, (2) a period during which the temperature is maintained at the predetermined level for a certain period of time, and (3) a period during which the temperature is decreased after the temperature is maintained at the predetermined level for a certain period of time.

[0096] Specific steam curing conditions in the method for producing a hardened body of the present invention are as follows: in step 4, the ambient temperature of the formwork is raised to 60°C or higher and 85°C or lower at a rate of 10°C or higher and 30°C or lower per hour, and the raised temperature is maintained for 2 hours or higher and 8 hours or lower; and then, in step 5, the ambient temperature is cooled to room temperature, for example, 20°C, at a rate of 5°C or higher and 20°C or lower per hour, and the molded body is demolded. The temperature rise rate is preferably 20° C. per hour or less in order to prevent a decrease in strength due to cracking of the cured body. An example of preferred conditions is a method in which a formwork filled with a hydraulic composition is left to stand for 3 hours (pre-curing) at an ambient temperature of room temperature, for example, 10°C to 30°C, then the ambient temperature is raised to 70°C to 90°C at a rate of 20°C per hour, the raised temperature of 70°C to 90°C is maintained for 2 hours to 6 hours, and then the ambient temperature is cooled to room temperature, for example, 20°C, at a rate of 10°C per hour (step 4), and the formed body is left to stand at that temperature for 20 hours to 30 hours, after which it is demolded (step 5). It is also possible to further cure the material in an autoclave at approximately 180°C.

[0097] In step 6, the set hydraulic composition obtained in step 5 is cured at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Specifically, it is stored at 20°C and atmospheric pressure.

[0098] The manufacturing method of the present invention includes a method for manufacturing a hardened product of a hydraulic composition, which includes steps 1 to 5, and in which the time from the start of preparation of the hydraulic composition to demolding in step 5 is 8 hours or more and 30 hours or less. Here, the start of preparation of the hydraulic composition refers to the time when the hydraulic powder first comes into contact with water.

[0099] The hardened product of the hydraulic composition obtained by the method for producing a hardened product of the present invention can be used as a centrifugally molded concrete product, specifically, piles, poles, Hume pipes, etc. The hardened product of the hydraulic composition obtained by the method for producing a hardened product of the present invention has excellent formability for a hydraulic composition after a certain time (15 to 60 minutes) has passed since mixing, so that the product has little unevenness on the inner surface and edge surface, has excellent surface appearance, and furthermore, the smooth finish of the inner surface of the product reduces obstacles to cutting machines during pile driving and core excavation.

[0107] *Concrete mix 2 Cement (P1): 12.9 kg (Pacific Cement Corporation ordinary Portland cement, specific gravity 3.16) Inorganic early strengthening agent (P2): 0.1 kg (Denki Kagaku Kogyo Co., Ltd., specific gravity 2.45) Tap water (W): 3.0 kg (contains components (A), (B), and (C)) W / P: 23% by mass Sand 1 (S1): 9.4 kg (Ibi River, Gifu Prefecture, specific gravity 2.55) Sand 2 (S2): 10.9 kg (Koka, Shiga Prefecture, specific gravity 2.58) Gravel (G): 25.6 kg (Ieshima, Hyogo Prefecture, specific gravity 2.63) All materials were adjusted to 30°C, and the amounts of components (A), (B), and (C) in the tap water were so small relative to the concrete mix that they were included in the amount of tap water used to calculate W / P.

[0108] (2) Concrete preparation A composition containing components (A), (B), and (C), and water, was prepared in the amounts shown in Table 1. The composition was added to tap water (W) from the concrete mix ingredients and stirred to prepare mixing water. The concrete was prepared by adding gravel, about half of the sand, a mixture of cement and an inorganic early-strengthening agent, and the remaining sand, in that order, to a forced twin-screw mixer (manufactured by KYC Corporation), dry mixing for 30 seconds, followed by the addition of the prepared mixing water, and mixing for 240 seconds to obtain concrete.

[0109] (3) Evaluation of moldability over time since mixing Concrete samples were placed in a centrifugal molding form (inner diameter 20 cm, outer diameter 25 cm, height 40 cm) 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes after mixing (meaning the point at which the cement first comes into contact with water; the same applies below). The samples were then compacted centrifugally at an initial speed of 1 G for 2 minutes, 3 G for 2 minutes, 7 G for 2 minutes, 15 G for 3 minutes, and 25 G for 3 minutes. Centrifugal compactability was evaluated by visual inspection of the unhardened compacts at each time point. Those with sludge on the surface were labeled "sludge." The compacts were tilted to remove and collect the sludge, and their mass (g) was recorded. Concrete with poor fluidity and insufficient filling and compaction was labeled "junk." Those without defects such as "sludge" or "junk" were labeled "good moldability." Furthermore, for the compacts that were judged to have "good formability," a steel tape measure was inserted into the unhardened interior of the centrifugal specimen after centrifugal compaction, and the penetration depth (mm) was recorded and listed in order to quantitatively evaluate the formability (fluidity retention). The results are shown in Table 1. Furthermore, of the compacts obtained by centrifugal compaction, the compressive strength at 7 days (7-day strength) of the centrifugal compacts that had no molding defects was measured. Measurements were carried out in accordance with JIS A 1108. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0110] [Table 1]

[0111] In Table 1, the amounts of component (A), component (B), and component (C) added are the amounts (parts by mass) added relative to 100 parts by mass of hydraulic powder, and are the amounts of solid content (effective content) added.

[0112] In Table 1, the examples containing component (A) exhibited better formability for a longer period of time than the comparative examples that did not contain component (A) or contained component (A') instead of component (A). It can also be seen that, even when components (A) and (B) were used in combination in the examples, the greater the proportion of component (A), the better the formability for a longer period of time. This is thought to be because component (A) was adsorbed intermittently to the cement by the above-mentioned mechanism, effectively maintaining the fluidity of the concrete.

[0113] Furthermore, in Table 1, examples containing component (B) in addition to component (A) tend to require less additive amount to avoid molding defects compared to examples using component (A) alone. This is thought to be because component (B) has better fluidity immediately after mixing than component (A), so component (A) effectively maintains the fluidity of the concrete while reducing the total additive amount.

[0114] Furthermore, in Table 1, the examples containing component (C) in addition to components (A) and (B) tend to have superior compressive strength at 7 days (7-day strength) of centrifugally compacted bodies compared to the examples containing component (A) alone and component (A) and component (B). This is thought to be because component (C) activates the hydration reaction of hydraulic powders, such as cement, and densifies the structure of the hardened body.
