Abstract

In the process of the invention, multi-component resins are applied to porous, granular materials intended for subsequent consolidation. Application is carried out by feeding the components, physically separated from each other, under relatively high pressure, to a mixing chamber, mixing them by turbulent means in the mixing chamber, and applying the resulting mixture, at relatively low pressure, as a thin curtain in laminar flow to the material. The simplest form of the device of the invention comprises: a) separate feed lines for the components at relatively high pressure; b) a mixing chamber preferably designed as a static mixer; c) a fan spray nozzle working at relatively low pressure. The process and device are used to increase the sound-absorption and/or ease-of-cleaning characteristics of a railway track, to increase the cross-sliding resistance of railway sleepers on ballast, and to smooth the transition between a soft and hard railway track.

Process and Device of Applying Mu~ti-Co~ponent Resins and Use of Same , Subject matter of the present in~ention is a process and a device for applying multi-component resins to porous, gran-ular material to be compactedj in particular, bulk material to be compacted, optionally subsequently densified by rapping, etc.. Typical such materials are, for example, ballasts for rail vehicles, additional stone bottomings finer in grain onto such ballasts, but also sand and pebble bottomings for road construction to be cemented together without losing their water permeability. With ballasts for rail vehicIes, cementing is effected particularly in the transition zones between soft and hard areas according to Applicantls German Patent Applica-tion P 39 41 141.9. According to Applicant's German Patent Application P 40 14 529.8, it may further be purposeful, par-ticularly in curves, to increase the cross-sliding resistance of railway sleepers on ballast. According to Applicant's German Patent Application P 39 41 142.7, bottomings finer in grain onto such ballasts are cemented using multi-component resins to increase sound absorption and/or-cleanability of a railway track. In particular, cementing of pebbles and sand, with water permeability and porosity being retained, are per-formed to ensure rapid drainage of surface water, and thereby to reduce traffic noise even in rain.

~ n all these cases, as well as in similar fields of ap-plication for cementing porous granular material and bulk ma-terial using multi-component resins, it is required to apply a .

sufficient amount of said multi-component resins as uniformly as possible such that, at least in the upper region, the parts - are wetted over the total area, and adhesive bridges are formed at least at the contact points. Any excess amount of multi-component resin is to flow off downward and to coat further material there. By no means the voids are to be filled, as this would impede porosity of the cemented bulk material as well as its permeability for water and other liq-uids. Thus, the multi-component resins should not be too high-ly viscous and, if possible, not thixotropic. The setting re-action is to occur only after a sufficient depth of the bulk material layer is coated with the multi-component resin but not filled up to total volume. Since multi-component resins generally are very reactive substances possibly leading to irritation of skin and mucosae when processed, formation of spray mists should be suppressed or completely avoided. More-over, processing in tunnels or in closed spaces should be per-formed without using solvents. In principle, this requirement also holds in open air since solvents evaporating immediately or subsequently result in an environmental load to be avoided if ever possible. Nevertheless, the multi-component resins must be applicable rapidly, simply, and safely to keep materi-al and wage expenses as low as possible.

; This ambivalent, difficult, and partially contradictory problem can be solved in a surprisingly simple manner in that the components, physically separated from each other, at rela-tively high pressure, are fed to a mixing chamber, mixed by turbulent means in the mixing chamber, and applied as mixture at relatively low pressure as thin curtain in laminar flow to the material.
, Preferably, by selecting components and, optionally, suitable additives, there is provided that viscosity of the mixture is increased to from 300 to 1000 mPa s, but the sur-face tension is decreased. These two properties make contribu-tions in thak the thin curtain of the mixture does not break up too early thus forming spray mists.

,, . , . ,............... ~ . , , : ............. : , . , .: . . . . . ..

, ~ 2C~699~.~

Here, components and additives should be free of solvents per se. Further, addition of solvents should be abandonded completely.

: Fan spray nozzles operating at relatively low pressure are particularly suited in generating a thin curtain of mix-ture emerging in laminar flow. Suitable fan spray nozzles are offered, for example, by the company Spraying Systems Deutsch-land GmbH, Hamburg, under the designation FlatJet~ nozzles and FloodJet~ nozzles. When using common low-viscosity materials such as water and aqueous flushing solutions, these fan spray nozzles provide a thin curtain of fine droplets including a considerable amount of spray mists. Initially, it was not pre-dictable that it is possible to discharge multi-component re-sins using said fan spray nozzles in such way that the result-ing curtain does not brea~ up too early and does not form spray mists. In particular, if a pressure of only betweeen 2 and 6 bars (preferably from 3.5 to 5 bars) is present when the mixture emerges from the nozzle, a thin curtain of the mixture in laminar flow results. This curtain generally remains intact over at least 10, mostly 20 cm, and only then is divided into single jets and, eventually, into relatively large drops, but by no means into the spray mists to be avoided.

Prior to discharge from the fan spray nozzle, the indi-vidual components of the multi-component resin must be mixed as quickly and intensively as possible, with the amount of each mixture produced to be kept as small as possible to keep losses of material upon interruption of operation as low as possible. Thus, according to the invention, the components must be mixed together turbulently in the mixing chamber.
Static mixers have especially proven worthwhile. These are relatively short pipes having successive left-handed and right-handed helix, thereby providing turbulent flow and per-" fect mixing of the components.

~99~:

, ..:
According to the invention, the feed lines for the indi vidual components to the static mixer must be under relatively high pressure. Pressures between 30 and 200 bars (preferably from 50 to 150 bars) have proven suitable. This relatively high pressure is diminished so far within the static mixer that the final mixture emerges from the fan spray nozzle at a residual pressure of only from 2 to 6 bars.

The residence times of the multi-component resin in the mixing chamber or the static mixer are substantially shorter than the so-called pot life of the final mixtures. Thus, the mixture applied to the bulk material in a fashion according to the invention retains its relatively low viscosity for a time sufficient to spreadingly and wettingly pass a sufficiently thick layer of bulk material.

By no means ho~ever, the components of the multi-com-ponent resins may be allowed to come into contact within from the pipelines to the mixing chamber or even to react within the feed lines. Thus, it is convenient to secure each of the ~-separate feed lines for the components by check valves.
Furthermore, it is most convenient to connect each of these feed lines separately to a compressed-air line which in turn is secured by check valves. In case one component is stopped or the feed of one component is interrupted on purpose or without purpose, the compressed air provides for discharge of the feed line to the mixing chamber and from there to the fan spray nozzle. After a short time, a thin curtain of a liquid-air mixture will emerge there which immediately can be per-cepted in both optical and acoustic terms and should result in interruption of the overall processing operation.

Pipelines and mixing chamber are also cleaned by com-pressed air upon intended interruption or completion of the processing operation. Further cleaning using solvents is not required in general.

.

Thus, object of the present invention is, at first, the process according to the above process claims. Another object of the present invention is the device for performing said process, consisting of a) separate feed lines for the components being under relatively high pressure b) a mixing chamber, preferably designed as a static mixer c) a fan spray nozzle for relatively low pressure d) preferably separate compressed-air lines leading to the feed lines for the components, and e) check valves provided at both beginning and end of each feed line for the componants as well as in the com-pressed-air lines.

Thus, in the simplest case, the device constists of se-parate feed lines for the components being under relatively high pressure, a mixing chamber and a fan spray nozzle for relatively low pressure. Preferably, the device has separate compressed-air lines leading to the feed lines for the com-ponents. Conveniently, each of the feed lines for the com-ponents and the compressed-air lines are secured by check valves, so that unintentional penetration of one or all the components into parts of the device other than mixing chamber and fa~ spray nozzle are avoided.

When using static mixers, the device can be handled re-latively simply and easily, and thus, manual handling is quite well. The feed of the device is preferably effected using flexible tubes. Thus, with a two-component resin, two tubes for the components and one tube for compressed air are suf-ficient.

Preferred multi-component resins are epoxide resin ad-hesives as well as polyurethane resin adhesives. For special uses, a third or a fourth liquid component may be dosed readi-ly, particularly, where surface tension, viscosity, and reac-9~

spreading multi-component epoxide resin adhesive or a multi-component polyurethane resin adhesive; and c) to smooth the transition between a soft and a hard railway track, where the soft track succeeding the end of the hard track is compacted by spraying with a spreading multi-component epoxide resin adhesive or a multi-component poly-urethane resin adhesive, and the compacting is effected de-creasingly with increasing distance from the hard track by decreasing the amount of adhesive applied;

d) to cement pebbles and sand in road construction, with water permeability and porosity being retained.

To increase sound absorption and/or cleanability of a railway track, the stone bottoming ranging in grain size below 63 mm, preferably below 30 mm diameter is applied onto the railway and is compacted by spraying with a spreading multi-component epoxide resin adhesive.

Due to the narrow range in grain size, the layer formed according to this process has a relatively high amount of voids, but is, nevertheless, compacted, because the spreading adhesive moves around the grains, thus always reaching the contact points of the grains, binding them together after cur-ing, but in advance, optionally, flowing downward to the next grain, etc. - steadily moving along the grain surface, and not filling the voids. Important in this connection is the range in grain size - preferably below 25 mm, more preferably below 20 mm - being far below that of ballast optionally present, and which, depending on whether sound absorption or cleanabi-lity is deemed more desirable, more that way or the other, may be uniformly seleceted to serve both functions as well.

As a rule, the range in grain size will be limited to a grain size ratio of from 1:2 to 1:3 (smallest grain to largest grain). Grainings of from 2 to 4 mm, from 4 to 11 mm, and from 8 to 16 mm have proven convenient.

:

9~

Likewise, the stone bottoming may be applied several times in different layers. ~ere, if grain size increases from bottom to top, sound absorption i5 improved. The sound will be forced to branch on its way downwards and fades away.

The stone bottoming may consist of round grains or stone chips.

The layer is to serve sound absorption predominantly on and in buildings, as well as on bridges and in tunnels, par-ticularly on solid road, i.e., where railways are laid onto concrete. The layer is to serve cleanability predominantly in I railway stations. The firmness of the layer surface - the depth of compacting may be controlled via amount of spray-applied adhesive - permits, for example, cleaning by steam jet blowing and simultaneous suction.

It is an important advantage that the layer produced ac-` cording to the invention is drainable. This is not the case with prior known layers made of concrete or steel.
. .
Another advantage is that it is possible to break up thelayer for purposes of repair, e.g., at a sleeper, and then to restore it using the same stone material. It is pointed out that, as a rule, the layer extends as high as the upper edge of the sleeper. It also protects from stoning flying about.
; .' .
Using the following embodiment, this application is ex-plained in greater detail:

A threefold stone bottoming is applied to a track embank-ment, depending on the conditions, to a total thickness of from 20 to 25 cm. The bottom layer consists of quartz graining (round grain), grain size from 2 to 4 mm, the middle layer consists of stone chip graining (basalt or limestone), grain size of from 4 to 11 mm, and the top layer consists of stone chip graining (basalt or limestone), grain size of from 8 to , ' .

', ': ' ' '' .1 2 ~ 9 ~ ,~
g 16 mm. The bottom and middle layer each make up for about 30~, the top layer for about 40% of the total thickness.

Thereupon is sprayed an epoxide resin adhesive in an amount of, for example, 2 k~/m .

The adhesive is a two~component adhesive.

The resin component consists of non-brominated bis-phenol A resins and cycloaliphatic resins. Added thereto are monofunctional and/or bifunctional reactive thinners, phos-phoric esters as flame retardants, silicic esters as primers, and a silicone defoamer.

The hardener component consists of adducts of amines, amides, phenol-free Mannich bases or mixtures thereof, benzyl alcohol as promoter, silicic ester as primer, and silicone defoamer.

The adhesive forms a uniformly compacted layer down to a depth of about 10 cm. Beneath, the compacting is more loosely, and then only here and there.

In addition to the weight of the trains, a centrifugal force acts upon the railway tracks in curves. The transversal force thus acting upon the sleepers may be neutralized for a certain train velocity by banking the outward track. As a rule, however, the railways must be run by trains having dif-ferent velocities. Contemplating slow goods trains, banking is limited.

To increase-cross-sliding resistance of railway sleepers on ballast, ~he latter is sprayed with a spreading multi-com-ponent epoxide resin adhesive or a multi-component poly-urethane resin adhesive.

'~

Z1~6~

The spreading adhesive moves around the crushed stones, thus al~ays reaching the contact points of the stones, binding them together after curing, but in advance, optionally, flow-ing downward to the next stone, etc. - steadily moving along the stone surface, and not filling the voids. The adhesive, uniformly spread by spraying, continuously compacts a flat surface layer of the ballast, forming stalaktites thereunder.
With larger amounts of adhesive, these stalaktites are formed in somewhat smaller distances to each other. In part, they reach down as far as to the bottom of the ballast, forming an additional toe there. Decreasing the amount of adhesive re-sults in greater distance and diminished lengths of the sta-laktites. Thus, using the amount of adhesive applied, con-trolled compacting of the ballast may be achieved. The railway sleepers embedded into the ballast are accordingly fixed more strongly.
.
Fixation still improves when the railway sleepers are ~i sprayed as well, thus gaining the same binding with the bal-last as the ballast within itself. -The amount of adhesive to be applied depends on the con- -ditions present. As a general rule, it will be more than 2 1/m2, mostly betweeen 5 and 8 1/m2.

An example for an adhesive to be applied is given as follows:

The resin component consists of non-brominated bis-phenol A resins and cycloaliphatic resins. Added thereto are monofunctional and/or b.ifunctional reactive thinners, phos-phoric esters as flame retardants, silicic esters as primers, and a silicone defoamer.

The hardener component consists of adducts of amines, amides, phenol-free Mannich bases or mixtures thereof, benzyl alcohol as promoter, silicic ester as primer, and silicone - ' "

defoamer. Likewise, a multi-component polyurethane resin ad-hesive were possible instead.

The adhesive is incorporated in an amount of from 6 to 7 kg/m , for instance.

A special advantage is that also existing railway lines may be improved in simple fashion by the process according to the invention.

A soft railway is understood to be railway tracks laid onto ballast, and a hard railway is understood to be railway tracks laid onto or into a building which, as a rule, is made of concrete. The ballast is more flexible than concrete. With 20 t of weight on the axle, the tracks give way for about from 1.5 to 4 mm, mostly about 3 mm, on concrete, for only from 0.5 to 1.5 mm, mostly about 1 mm, which is due to the plastic layer betweeen concrete and tracks.

This difference gives rise to an impact or shock, as the wheels make the transition from one railway to the other.

To smooth the transition between a soft and a hard rail-way track, the soft track succeeding the end of the hard track is compacted by spraying with a spreading multi-component epoxide resin adhesive or a multi-component polyurethane resin adhesive, and the compacting is effected decreasingly with increasing distance from the hard track by decreasing the amount of adhesive applied.
, Preferably, the compacting initially is perfo~med con-tinuously for some way, and then, decreasingly.

The spreading adhesive moves around the crushed stones, thus always reaching the contact points of the stones, binding them together after curing, but in advance, optionally, flow-ing downward to the next stone, etc. - steadily moving along ,: . ' ., : ' .

the stone surface, and not filling the voids. The invention includes the recognition that such compacting may be con-trolled very well via amount of adhesive applied, to a large degree via local distribution of the adhesive. The adhesive, uniformly spread by spraying, continuously compacts a flat surface layer of the ballast, forming stalaktites thereunderO
With larger amounts of adhesive, these stalaktites are formed in somewhat smaller distances to each other. In part, they reach down as far as to the bottom of the ballast, forming an additional toe there. Decreasing the amount of adhesive re-sults in greater distance and diminished lengths of the stalaktites.

In this way, a kind of point lattice forms as a mono-lithic block, which lattice, depending on its density, holds together the ballast to a greater or lesser extent, and, de-pending on its depth extension, in a flatter or higher layer, thus more or less decrasing the low mobility of the ballast stones with respect to each other, and thus decreasing ballast flexibility.

In addition to the reversible mobility of the ballast stones in elastic deformation, the irreversible displacements of the ballast stones with respect to each other, occurring in the course of time, are reduced, which cause the ballast to give way and thus, further result in shock at the transition from soft to hard way and vice versa.

For instance, the section of constant stability has a length of from 5 to 15 m, the section of decreasing stability, for example, has a length of from 10 to 20 m.

Depending on its composition, the adhesive will be ap-plied in an amount of from 5 to 8 l/m2 which reduces to from 1 to 2 l/m2.

A railway track having rails 11 on sleepers 12 is running from natural ground onto a bridge 14. Above the natural ground the sleepers 12 are carried on ballast 15. On the bridge 14, they directly lie on concrete.

By spraying an adhesive penetrating the ballast onto a section 16 succeeding the bridge 14 of, e.g., 10 m in length and then onto a section 17 of, e.g., 15 m in length, the bal-last 15 is compacted in a uniform and decreasing manner, re-spectively. The decrease in compacting results in the first place from a decreasing average penetration depth of the ad-hesive. Another small proportion of said decrease is due to greater distance betweeen the points where the adhesive ex-tends downwards in the form of stalaktites 18.

The adhesive is a two-component adhesive.

The resin component consists, for instance, of non-brominated bisphenol A resins and cycloaliphatic resins. Added thereto are monofunctional and/or bifunctional reactive thin-ners, phosphoric esters as flame retardants, silicic esters as primers, and a silicone defoamer.
