The invention relates to a method for preparing a gel material from
phosphoric acid-based
geopolymer composite
plant fiber, which comprises the following steps: (1) reacting
phosphoric acid serving as an acid activator with
metakaolin, and adding
phosphoric acid, water and
metakaolin into a mixing stirrer to react for 30 minutes; (2) adding the Chinese fir fibers into the
geopolymer gel, uniformly stirring for a certain time, putting the mixed
slurry into a rectangular mold of 220 * 50 * 20mm, putting the rectangular mold on a
hot press for
compression molding, and setting the temperature of the
hot press to be 60 DEG C and the pressure of the
hot press to be 45MPa; and (3) putting the
composite material obtained by pressing and the mold into a
drying oven at 60 DEG C for curing, demolding after 1 day, putting the demolded sample into a sample bag for sealing, continuously curing in the
drying oven at 60 DEG C for 3 days, removing the sample bag, then curing for 3 days, and then testing the performance of the sample. When the
molar ratio of H2O to Al2O3 is 10, the
molar ratio of H3PO4 to Al2O3 is 2.0 and the
fiber content is 10%, the
static bending intensity of the prepared
geopolymer composite material reaches the optimal value of 13.75 MPa, and the
internal bonding strength also reaches the optimal value of 2.17 MPa. The
static bending intensity of the sample after freezing and thawing cycle can still reach 10.87 MPa to the maximum, and the frozen and thawed sample does not have edge missing, corner missing and
cracking.
