AI Technical Summary
Hydrated solidified steel slag is challenging to control in terms of working time, hydration adjustment, and strength development when used as an alternative material for concrete, lacking the control factors present in conventional hydraulic compositions like cement.
A method for producing hydrated solidified steel slag involves combining cement with a first raw material group containing silicon oxide and calcium oxide, water, a retardant, and specific copolymers or their salts, adjusting the weight ratios of these components to achieve optimal hydration and strength development.
This method enables the production of hydrated steel slag with performance comparable to or exceeding conventional hydraulic compositions, effectively addressing the challenges of controlling usable time, hydration, and strength development.

Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for producing a hydrated iron and steel slag body. [Background technology]
[0002] Steelmaking slag has been used for purposes such as temporary roadbed material and backfill material, but has now been effectively utilized as a steel slag hydrate, which is made up of ground granulated blast furnace slag, steelmaking slag, and water (Non-Patent Document 1). Non-Patent Document 2 has been officially recognized, and the number of application cases is increasing. Initially, steel slag hydrate had the problem of expansion due to f-CaO or f-MgO, but this problem has been avoided by specifying the powdering rate and MgO content.

[0046] -Weight average molecular weight- Weight average molecular weight Mw of polycarboxylic acid copolymer or its salt (D2-0) (A)is preferably 7,000 or more, more preferably 8,000 or more. The upper limit of the weight average molecular weight is preferably 15,000 or less. Therefore, it is preferably 7,000 to 15,000, more preferably 8,000 to 15,000. By being in this range, component (A) can be applied to a wide range of concrete mixes from normal strength concrete to ultra-high strength concrete, high dispersibility can be obtained in the ultra-high strength range, dispersibility does not plateau, and the limit addition rate can be reduced.
[0047] The weight average molecular weight is measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The GPC measurement may be performed under the following conditions using a known method in which the weight average molecular weight is converted into polyethylene glycol. Measuring device: Tosoh Columns used: Shodex Column OH-pak SB-806HQ, SB-804HQ, SB-802.5HQ Eluent: 0.05M sodium nitrate / acetonitrile 8 / 2 (v / v) Eluent flow rate; 1.00ml / min Column temperature: 50°C Measurement sample concentration: 0.5% by weight Standard material: Polyethylene glycol (Tosoh, GL Science) Detector: Differential refractometer (Tosoh) Calibration curve; Polyethylene glycol standard
[0048] The molecular weight distribution (Mw / Mn) of the polycarboxylic acid copolymer or its salt is not particularly limited, but the Mw / Mn of the polycarboxylic acid copolymer or its salt (D2-0) is preferably 1.2 or more, more preferably 1.25 or more. The upper limit is preferably 2.0 or less, more preferably 1.70 or less. Therefore, the molecular weight distribution is preferably 1.25 to 1.70.
[0049] (Polycarboxylic acid copolymer or its salt (D2-1)) The polycarboxylic acid copolymer or its salt (D2-0) contains the above-mentioned structural units, and the weight ratio of each monomer at the time of copolymerization, the weight average molecular weight Mw (A), the weight average molecular weight Mw of the polymer peak on the gel permeation chromatogram (AH) and Mw (AL) and the peak area ratio calculated by AH / (AH+AL)×100 satisfy the above-mentioned ranges.
[0050] -Difference in weight average molecular weight of polymer peak- Weight average molecular weight Mw of the polymer peak on the gel permeation chromatogram of polycarboxylic acid copolymer or its salt (AH) and Mw (AL) The difference between the Mw and Mw is preferably 8,000 to 12,000. This allows the dispersion to be well maintained and the concrete viscosity to be kept low. (AH) Mw is usually 11,000 to 16,000, more preferably 12,000 to 16,000 or 11,000 to 15,000, and further preferably 12,000 to 14,000. (AL) is usually 3,000 to 6,000, and preferably 3,500 to 5,000.
[0051] The two polymer peaks can be confirmed by obtaining a GPC chromatogram of the polycarboxylic acid copolymer or its salt after GPC measurement and creating a baseline. The GPC chromatogram can be plotted with peak intensity (mV) on the vertical axis and retention time on the horizontal axis. The baseline is usually taken from the start time of elution of the polymer peak to the end time of elution. If the end time of elution is not clearly visible, the baseline can be created and then separated at the midpoint between the peak and the valley of the peak, and this point can be taken as the end time of elution of the polymer peak.
[0052] As shown in FIG. 1, two polymer peaks are usually confirmed. When three or more polymer peaks are present in the polycarboxylic acid copolymer or its salt, peaks expected to be derived from the polycarboxylic acid copolymer or its salt (usually the two largest polymer peaks) are selected. In the example of FIG. 1, the two polymer peaks are adjacent to each other, but when three or more polymer peaks are present, the two selected peaks do not necessarily have to be adjacent to each other. The weight average molecular weight on the high molecular weight side, calculated as polyethylene glycol, is defined as Mw (AH) , the weight average molecular weight on the low molecular weight side is Mw (AL) That is, Mw (AH) >Mw (AL) This is in a relationship.
[0053] -Peak area ratio- When the peak area on the high molecular weight side of a gel permeation chromatogram of a polycarboxylic acid copolymer or a salt thereof is AH and the peak area on the low molecular weight side is AL, AH / (AH+AL)×100 (area ratio of AH) is preferably 70% to 80%.
[0054] The peak area on the high molecular weight side is the area enclosed by the ridgeline of the polymer peak on the high molecular weight side described in the section on the weight average molecular weight of the polymer peak, the line drawn vertically from the lowest intensity points (so-called valleys) on both sides of the ridgeline to the baseline, and the baseline. The peak area on the low molecular weight side is the area enclosed by the ridgeline of the polymer peak on the low molecular weight side described in (ii), the line drawn vertically from the lowest intensity points (so-called valleys) on both sides of the ridgeline to the baseline, and the baseline. If the area ratio of AH is 70% to 80%, the effect on dispersibility is suppressed, dispersibility can be improved, and concrete viscosity can be kept low.
[0055] (Polyalkylene glycol monoallyl ether (D2-2)) (D2-2) is represented by the following general formula (IV): R 4 -O-(A 2 O)-R 5 (2) Examples of the salt are the same as those given in (D2-1).
[0056] R in general formula (IV) 4 R represents an alkenyl group having 2 to 5 carbon atoms. The number of carbon atoms in the alkenyl group is preferably 3 to 5. 4 Examples of R include an allyl group, a methallyl group, and a residue of 3-methyl-3-buten-1-ol. 4 is not limited to these groups.
[0057] A in general formula (IV) 2 O may be the same or different and represents an oxyalkylene group having 2 to 18 carbon atoms. Examples of the oxyalkylene group include an oxyethylene group (ethylene glycol), an oxypropylene group (propylene glycol), and an oxybutylene group (butylene glycol). Among these, the oxyalkylene group is preferably an oxyethylene group (ethylene glycol) or an oxypropylene group (propylene glycol).
[0058] The above-mentioned "may be the same or different" means that A 2 If multiple Os are included (n1 is 2 or more), multiple A 2 This means that O may be the same oxyalkylene group or different (two or more types) oxyalkylene groups.
[0059] In general formula (IV), A 2In the case where a plurality of O's are contained, there may be mentioned an embodiment in which two or more oxyalkylene groups selected from the group consisting of an oxyethylene group (ethylene glycol unit), an oxypropylene group (propylene glycol unit), and an oxybutylene group (butylene glycol unit) are mixed. Among these, preferred is an embodiment in which an oxyethylene group (ethylene glycol unit) and an oxypropylene group (propylene glycol unit) are mixed, or an embodiment in which an oxyethylene group (ethylene glycol unit) and an oxybutylene group (butylene glycol unit) are mixed, and more preferred is an embodiment in which an oxyethylene group (ethylene glycol unit) and an oxypropylene group (propylene glycol unit) are mixed.
[0060] In the case where oxyethylene groups and oxypropylene groups are mixed, the ratio of the average number of moles of oxyethylene groups to the average number of moles of oxypropylene groups ((average number of moles of oxyethylene groups added) / (average number of moles of oxypropylene groups added)) is preferably (50.0 to 99.9)% / (0.1 to 50.0)%.
[0061] In an embodiment in which different oxyalkylene groups are mixed, the addition of two or more types of oxyalkylene groups may be in a block form or a random form.
[0062] In the general formula (IV), n1 is the average number of moles of oxyalkylene groups added, and is a number from 1 to 200. n1 is preferably 1 to 70, more preferably 5 to 70, and even more preferably 8 to 70.
[0063] R in general formula (IV) 5 represents a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms. If the number of carbon atoms is large, the dispersing ability of the dispersant for hydraulic compositions may not be fully exhibited. 5 is preferably a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, more preferably a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and further preferably a hydrogen atom or a methyl group.
[0064] The polyalkylene glycol monoallyl ether represented by the general formula (IV) can be produced, for example, by adding 1 to 200 moles of an alkylene oxide to an unsaturated alcohol such as allyl alcohol, methallyl alcohol, or 3-methyl-3-buten-1-ol.
[0065] The lower limit of the weight average molecular weight of the polyalkylene glycol monoallyl ether (D2-2) is preferably 5,000 or more, more preferably 10,000 or more, and even more preferably 14,000 or more. This allows the dispersibility of (D2-2) to be fully exhibited. On the other hand, the upper limit is preferably 50,000 or less, more preferably 45,000 or less, and even more preferably 40,000 or less. This can suppress the aggregation action of cement particles and improve workability.
[0066] The lower limit of the molecular weight distribution (Mw / Mn) of the polyalkylene glycol monoallyl ether (D2-2) is preferably 1.20 or more, more preferably 1.25 or more, while the upper limit is preferably 3.00 or less, more preferably 2.90 or less.
[0067] -Methods of producing polycarboxylic acid copolymers, glycol ether polymers, and their salts- Each compound can be produced by polymerizing the monomer from which the constituent unit is derived. The polymerization method is not limited, but examples thereof include polymerization methods such as polymerization in a solvent and bulk polymerization.
[0068] Examples of the solvent used in the polymerization in a solvent include water, lower alcohols such as methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, etc., aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, xylene, etc., aliphatic hydrocarbons such as cyclohexane, n-hexane, etc., esters such as ethyl acetate, etc., ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, etc. From the viewpoint of the solubility of the raw material monomers and the resulting polymer, it is preferable to use one or more selected from the group consisting of water and lower alcohols, and among them, it is more preferable to use water.
[0069] When polymerization is carried out in a solvent, each monomer and the polymerization initiator may be continuously added dropwise to a reaction vessel, or a mixture of each monomer and the polymerization initiator may be continuously added dropwise to a reaction vessel. Alternatively, a solvent may be charged into a reaction vessel, and a mixture of the monomers and the solvent and a polymerization initiator solution may be continuously added into the reaction vessel, or a part or all of the monomers may be charged into a reaction vessel, and the polymerization initiator may be continuously added dropwise.
[0070] When polymerization is carried out in a solvent, it is preferable that the monomers are mixed in advance in a vessel different from the reaction vessel and placed upstream of the vessel in which the reaction is carried out, and then continuously added dropwise to the reaction vessel.
[0071] After the polymerization reaction is completed, the polycarboxylic acid copolymer, glycol ether polymer, and their salts may be contained in the hydraulic composition as is, including the reaction solvent, or may be further treated. Examples of such treatments include removing the reaction solvent, adjusting the concentration by concentration or dilution, purification, and pH adjustment. After the reaction is completed, it is preferable to adjust the concentration and / or pH in a vessel installed downstream of the reaction vessel. There is no particular limitation on the method of concentration adjustment, but it may be performed, for example, by concentration or dilution by adding water. The pH adjustment will be described later.
[0072] When polymerization is performed in a water solvent, examples of the polymerization initiator include persulfates such as ammonium persulfate, sodium persulfate, and potassium persulfate; and water-soluble organic peroxides such as t-butyl hydroperoxide. In this case, accelerators such as sodium hydrogen sulfite and Mohr's salt can be used in combination. In addition, when polymerization is performed in a solvent such as a lower alcohol, an aromatic hydrocarbon, an aliphatic hydrocarbon, an ester, or a ketone, for example, peroxides such as benzoyl peroxide and lauryl peroxide; hydroperoxides such as cumene peroxide; and azo compounds such as azobisisobutyronitrile can be used as the polymerization initiator. In this case, accelerators such as amine compounds can be used in combination. Furthermore, when polymerization is performed in a water-lower alcohol mixed solvent, the above-mentioned polymerization initiators or combinations of polymerization initiators and accelerators can be appropriately selected and used. The polymerization temperature varies depending on the polymerization conditions such as the solvent used and the type of polymerization initiator, but is usually performed in the range of 50 to 120°C.
[0073] In the polymerization, a chain transfer agent may be used to adjust the molecular weight as necessary. Examples of the chain transfer agent used include known thiol compounds such as mercaptoethanol, thioglycerol, thioglycolic acid, 2-mercaptopropionic acid, 3-mercaptopropionic acid (β-mercaptopropionic acid), thiomalic acid, octyl thioglycolate, and 2-mercaptoethanesulfonic acid; phosphorous acid, hypophosphorous acid, and salts thereof (sodium hypophosphite, potassium hypophosphite, etc.), sulfurous acid, hydrogen sulfite, dithionous acid, metabisulfite, and salts thereof (sodium sulfite, potassium sulfite, sodium hydrogen sulfite, potassium hydrogen sulfite, sodium dithionite, potassium dithionite, sodium metabisulfite, potassium metabisulfite, etc.), and lower oxides and salts thereof; and the like. In addition, a polymerization inhibitor such as 4-methoxyphenol or phenothiazine may be used. The chain transfer agent and the polymerization inhibitor may each be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0074] In addition to the monomers (I), (II) and (III) used as necessary, or in addition to the monomer (IV), a monomer (V) having higher chain transferability may be used. This allows the molecular weight of each polymer to be adjusted. As the monomer (V), for example, a (meth)allylsulfonic acid (salt)-based monomer may be mentioned. The weight ratio of the monomer (V) during polymerization is usually 20% by weight or less, and preferably 10% by weight or less. The above weight ratio is the weight ratio when the weight ratio of the monomer (I) + the weight ratio of the monomer (II) + the weight ratio of the monomer (III) = 100% by weight, or the weight ratio of the monomer (IV) = 100% by weight.
[0075] In the case of polymerization in an aqueous solvent, the pH during polymerization may become strongly acidic due to the influence of monomers having unsaturated bonds, but this may be adjusted to an appropriate pH. If pH adjustment is required during polymerization, the pH can be adjusted using an acidic substance such as phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, alkyl phosphoric acid, alkyl sulfuric acid, alkyl sulfonic acid, or (alkyl)benzenesulfonic acid. Among these acidic substances, it is preferable to use phosphoric acid because of its pH buffering effect. However, in order to eliminate the instability of the ester bond of the ester monomer, it is preferable to carry out the polymerization at a pH of 2 to 7. In addition, there is no particular limitation on the alkaline substance that can be used to adjust the pH, but NaOH, Ca(OH) 2 The alkaline substances are generally used. The pH adjustment may be performed on the monomer before polymerization, or on the polymer solution after polymerization. In addition, a part of the alkaline substance may be added before polymerization, polymerization may be performed, and then the pH of the polymer may be further adjusted.
[0076] The (D2) component may be one selected from polycarboxylic acid copolymers, glycol ether polymers, and salts thereof, or a combination of two or more of them. It is preferable to include at least the above (D2-1) or (D2-2), and more preferably to include at least a combination of (D2-1) and (D2-2), or to include at least a combination of (D2-1), (D2-2) and (D2-0). The proportion of (D2-1) in the (D2) component is usually 10% by weight or more, preferably 20% by weight or more, and more preferably 25% by weight or more. The upper limit is usually 80% by weight or less, preferably 70% by weight or less, more preferably 60% by weight or less, and even more preferably 55% by weight or less. The proportion of (D2-2) in the (D2) component is usually 10% by weight or more, preferably 15% by weight or more, and more preferably 20% by weight or more. The upper limit is usually 70% by weight or less, preferably 60% by weight or less, more preferably 55% by weight or less, and even more preferably 50% by weight or less. (D2-1) / (D2-2) (weight ratio) is usually 0.7 or more, preferably 0.8 or more, and more preferably 0.85 or more. The upper limit is usually 3.0 or less, preferably 2.5 or less, and more preferably 2.0 or less. The proportion (weight ratio) of (D2-1)+(D2-2) in the (D2) component is usually 40% by weight or more, preferably 50% by weight or more, and more preferably 55% or more. There is no particular upper limit, and it may be 100% by weight.

The upper limit of the ignition loss of the fly ash is usually 20.0 or less, preferably 8.0 or less, and more preferably 3.0 or less.

When component (B) is a combination of two or more types of fly ash, it is sufficient that at least one of the fly ash satisfies at least one parameter selected from the above-mentioned density, ignition loss, and BET specific surface area, and it is preferable that all of the parameters are satisfied.

[0092] [Manufacturing method of iron and steel slag hydrated solidification material] The method for producing the iron and steel slag hydrated solidification material is not particularly limited as long as it is produced by mixing the above-mentioned components, but preferably includes a method including adding a second raw material group containing at least the components (C), (D1) and (D2) to a first raw material group containing at least the components (A) and (B) and hardening. When the component (E) is mixed, it is preferable to use it as the first raw material group. The first raw material group may be mixed in advance before adding the second raw material group. The second raw material group may be mixed before being added to the first raw material group, or each may be added separately to the first raw material group, the former being preferable. On the other hand, the first raw material group and the second raw material group may be added to the system sequentially or all at once without separating them. When using optional components, the aggregate and fine powder may be added at an appropriate time, and are not particularly limited. The mixing means may be a conventional method such as stirring. Hardening may be performed by heating the composition containing the first raw material group and the second raw material group as necessary. The heating temperature is usually 50 to 90° C., and preferably 60 to 70° C. The heating time is usually 1.5 to 5.0 hours, and preferably 2.5 to 4.0 hours. EXAMPLES
