Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to an aluminosilicate-containing composition and a method for producing the same. More specifically, it relates to an aluminosilicate-containing composition useful as a hardening accelerator for hydraulic material compositions such as precast cement and a method for producing the same. [Background technology]
[0002] In contrast to the cast-in-place method, where formwork is set up at the construction site and concrete is poured, the precast method, in which the basic components of a concrete structure are manufactured in a factory and then brought to the site to assemble the structure, offers advantages such as shorter construction periods and reduced labor costs. In precast concrete construction, concrete is generally poured into formwork, hardened using a method called steam curing, which involves exposing the concrete to high temperature and constant humidity, and then removed from the formwork. In precast concrete construction, early strength development of the concrete is required to shorten the time until formwork removal.
[0003] Various technologies have been developed to improve the early strength of concrete. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a mortar / concrete admixture containing rapid-hardening Portland cement, at least one of hemihydrate gypsum and anhydrous gypsum, sodium silicate, aluminum sulfate, and silica fume in specific proportions. Patent Document 2 discloses a mortar / concrete admixture containing (A) rapid-hardening Portland cement, (B) at least one of hemihydrate gypsum and anhydrous gypsum, (C) sodium silicate, and (D) aluminum sulfate in specific proportions. Patent Document 3 discloses a cement composition having Al2O3 and SO3 as chemical components and a molar ratio of [SO3] / [Al2O3] of 0.4 to 1.05. Patent Document 4 discloses a method for producing a curing accelerator composition by reaction of a water-soluble calcium compound and a water-soluble silicate compound, wherein the reaction between the water-soluble calcium compound and the water-soluble silicate compound is carried out in the presence of an aqueous solution containing a water-soluble comb-shaped polymer suitable as a plasticizer for a hydraulic binder.

[Effects of the Invention]
[0036] The aluminosilicate-containing composition of the present invention has the above-described structure, exhibits excellent early strength development, and can suppress costs, making it suitable for use as a hardening accelerator for hydraulic material compositions such as precast cement. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0037] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail, but the present invention is not limited to the following descriptions and can be modified and applied as appropriate without changing the gist of the present invention. Furthermore, embodiments combining two or more of the individual preferred embodiments of the present invention described below also constitute preferred embodiments of the present invention.
[0038] <Aluminosilicate-containing composition> The aluminosilicate-containing composition of the present invention comprises aluminosilicate and a water-soluble polymer, wherein the average particle size of the aluminosilicate, as measured by the above measurement method, is 10 to 2500 nm. It is believed that having an average particle size of aluminosilicate within this range improves the rate at which calcium hydroxide contained in the hydraulic material composition changes to calcium silicate hydrate, calcium aluminate hydrate, or aluminum calcium silicate hydrate, thereby promoting the pozzolanic reaction and enabling the development of early strength. The method described in Patent Document 4 enhances the strength of hydraulically hardened products by promoting the hydration reaction of tricalcium silicate in cement using calcium silicate hydrate, and this mechanism differs from the mechanism by which the aluminosilicate-containing composition of the present invention exhibits early strength. In Patent Document 4, the reaction in which calcium silicate hydrate is added increases the amount of heat generated compared to the case without the addition, whereas in the reaction using aluminosilicate in the present invention, no increase in the amount of heat generated is observed. Therefore, when the aluminosilicate-containing composition of the present invention is used as a curing accelerator, the initial rapid increase in heat generation is suppressed, and thus temperature-induced cracking can be suppressed.
[0039] The average particle size of the above aluminosilicate is preferably 10 to 2000 nm, more preferably 10 to 1000 nm, even more preferably 10 to 800 nm, even more preferably 10 to 500 nm, even more preferably 10 to 250 nm, even more preferably 10 to 200 nm, particularly preferably 10 to 150 nm, and most preferably 10 to 100 nm.

The content of silicon atoms is more preferably 1 to 800 mol%, even more preferably 10 to 250 mol%, and particularly preferably 50 to 150 mol%.
[0042] The above-mentioned aluminum-containing compounds and silicon-containing compounds are not particularly limited, but examples include unreacted raw materials used in the production of aluminosilicate-containing compositions.

[0045] The above aluminosilicate-containing composition contains a water-soluble polymer, and its content is preferably 0.025 to 90.9% by mass, based on 100% by mass of the aluminosilicate-containing composition. More preferably, it is 1 to 50% by mass, even more preferably 5 to 40% by mass, and particularly preferably 10 to 20% by mass.
[0046] The content of the above water-soluble polymer is preferably 5 to 1000% by mass, based on 100% by mass of the total content of aluminosilicate, aluminum-containing compound, and silicon-containing compound.

As a result, the rate at which calcium hydroxide contained in the hydraulic material composition changes to calcium silicate hydrate, calcium aluminate hydrate, or aluminum calcium silicate hydrate is improved, the pozzolanic reaction is more accelerated, and the early development of strength is further improved.
[0050] When the above water-soluble polymer has at least one selected from carboxyl groups, phosphate groups, sulfonic acid groups, and salts thereof, it is preferable that the proportion of structural units derived from monomers having at least one selected from carboxyl groups, phosphate groups, sulfonic acid groups, and salts thereof (hereinafter also referred to as monomers having acid groups) is 50 to 95 mol% of the total structural units.

For example, even with a water-cement ratio of 25% by mass or less, even 20% by mass or less, especially 18% by mass or less, especially 14% by mass or less, and especially around 12% by mass, it will still have workability that does not hinder normal use, and the hardened product will have a strength of 60 N / mm². 2 Furthermore, 80 N / mm 2 In addition to the above, an additional 100 N / mm 2 In particular, 120 N / mm 2 In particular, 160 N / mm 2 In particular, 200 N / mm 2 This demonstrates the above compressive strength.

[0127] When the above cement dispersant is used in combination, it cannot be uniquely determined due to differences in the type of cement dispersant used, its composition, and test conditions, but the ratio of the combined mass of the above other additives to the above cement dispersant is preferably 5-95:95-5. More preferably, it is 10-90:90-10.

[0131] In the above hydraulic material composition, the blending ratio of the aluminosilicate is preferably set to, for example, 0.01 to 1% by mass based on solid content relative to 100% by mass of the total cement mass. If it is less than 0.01% by mass, the performance may not be sufficient, and conversely, if it exceeds 1% by mass, the effect will substantially plateau, which may be unfavorable from an economic standpoint. More preferably it is 0.05 to 0.5% by mass, and even more preferably 0.1 to 0.4% by mass. In this specification, the solid content can be measured as follows.

[0143] <Measurement of average particle size of aluminosilicate> The first aqueous dispersion was filtered using Advantec's filter paper No. 2 to remove impurities, and the following operations were performed using the resulting filtrate. Using a particle size analyzer, the scattering intensity of an aqueous dispersion of an aluminosilicate-containing composition with a solid content of 0.1% by mass was measured by dynamic light scattering, and the Z-average particle size was calculated.

[0145] (GPC analysis conditions (polymer analysis)) In the obtained RI chromatogram, the regions that were flat and stable at the baseline immediately before and immediately after polymer elution were connected by straight lines to detect and analyze the polymer. However, if the peaks of monomers or monomer-derived impurities partially overlapped with the polymer peak, the polymer portion was vertically split at the deepest recess of the overlapping region to separate it from the monomer and impurity portions, and the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of only the polymer portion were calculated. If there was no recess, the calculations were performed together. The polymer purity was calculated from the ratio of peak areas measured by the RI detector as follows.
