relative atmospheric humidity, has a shrinkage of less than 0.3 mm/m, in particular less than 0.2 mm/m.

Description

214~738 Binder for hydraulically setting self-levelling floor screeds The invention relates to a binder for hydrauli-cally setting self-levelling floor screeds comprising a mixture of calcium sulphate and slag sand.
DE-C 38 43 635 discloses the use for self-levelling floor screeds of a binder comprising calcium sulphate alpha-hemihydrate and flour-like slag sand in a ratio of from 90:10 to 70:30, if desired together with ayy eyates and additives. The calcium sulphate alpha-hemihydrate here has a favourable influence on the initial strength. Such slurry screeds generally possess, as a result of the high proportion of calcium sulphate, a sufficiently low shrinkage on drying and final setting and a sufficient surface strength, with the latter becoming poorer with increasing slag sand contents, for which reason its content is restricted to the prescribed range. This thus leads to a very high usage of calcium sulphate alpha-hemihydrate which is a product which is relatively complicated to produce and thus expensive.
A screed based on slag sand would be, owing to its long reaction time, extremely sensitive to drying out and would run the risk of suffering from lack of mois-ture. Rewatering would counteract this, but is inconvenient and thus undesired. In addition, strength and surface problems occur which are caused by insufficient reaction of slag sand. Even amounts of up to 30% by weight of calcium sulphate hemihydrate, which does give a more favourable initial ~trength, reduce only the sensitivity to drying out, but do not eliminate this or the surface problems resulting from early carbonation.
It is known that, in sulphate slag cement in accordance with 2IN 4210 (1954), which has long been no longer available and contained, apart from slag sand and calcium sulphate, up to about 2.5% by weight of Portland cement clinker, the problem of the insufficient surface strength does not exist, but the Portland cement clinker here impairs the shrinkage behaviour resultiDg in form-ation of cracks which have been accepted in concrete but are not tolerable in a screed.
*) the German standard -A screed based on calcium sulphate and a Portland cement or Portland cement clinker is low in shrinkage and, with rising Portland cement content, tends to blow if the screed becomes wet. Thus, a correspQn~;ng screed is sensitive to aqueous base coats or primers as are used nowadays in place of those which contain organic liquids as solvent. To counter this problem, according to exactly the abovementioned DE-C 38 43 625, slag sand is used in place of the Portland cement or its clinker, 80 as to make the screed water-resistant and insensitive to blowing.
It is an object of the invention to provide a binder which makes possible the production of hydraulically setting self-levelling floor screeds i which have, with a reduced proportion of calcium sulphate, a sufficient surface strength.
This object is achieved by reactive aluminates, calculated as CA, which can if desired be partially replaced by calcium hydroxide, being present in addition to calcium sulphate and slag sand, with the mixture in the three-material diagram calcium sulphate/slag sand/reactive aluminate being made up within a window which extends along the calcium sulphate - slag sand axis from 35 to 70% by weight of calcium sulphate, calculated as CaS04, and in the direction of reactive aluminates from about 0.5 to 5% by weight, in such a way that a st~n~rd mortar prism comprising a mixture of three parts by weight of quartz sand and one part by weight of a binder at an age of 28 days, 21 days of which is storage at 20C and 65% relative atmospheric humidity after previous moist or water storage, has a shrinkage of less than 0.3 mm/m, in particular less than 0.2 mm/m.
This makes it possible to produce water-resistant self-levelling screeds which are suitable even for industrial floors and which have a high in-i~ial strength, sufficient ~urface strength with high final compressive strength and a shrinkage on drying and final setting which is 80 small that no tearing or dishing results.
The st~n~rd mortar prisms are produced in ~` 214S73~

accordance with the European St~n~rd EN 196 Part 1 which i8 applicable to cement, using a ratio of water to binder of about 0.46. The measurement of the shrinkage is carried out on the st~n~rd mortar prisms in accordance with the directions of EN 196 at an age of 28 days with initial moist storage for two days and subsequent water storage for five days.
Furthermore, the formulation is advantageously made up within the window of the three-material diagram in such a way that swelling on water storage for 26 days, (after prior moist storage for two days) is at most 1 mm/m, in particular 0.5 mm!m.
The reactive aluminates can be present, in particular, in the form of C12A7 and/or C3A which have an excess of CaO and thus, in the reaction in the fresh mortar, on the one hand eliminate calcium hydroxide and, on the other hand, increase the surface strength by formation of aluminate hydration products. The Ca(OH) 2 which is eliminated serves as a buffer against early carbonation of the fresh mortar on the screed surface.
The reactive aluminates can, however, also be present in the form of CA or C~AF, with a part of the reactive aluminates being able to be replaced by calcium hydroxide.
The proportion of the reactive aluminates is preferably below 2.5% by weight.
The reactive aluminates can, together with reactive silicates such as C2S and C3S, be present, for instance, in the form of aluminous or fused aluminous cement, Portland cement clinker or Portland cement, iron Portland cement or blast furnace slag cement or mixtures thereof.
The individual components are milled separately and subsequently mixed. Here, the individual components should preferably have a Blaine specific surface area of at least 3000 cm~/g.
Suitable forms of calcium sulphate, which posi-tively influences virtually only theinitialstrength, are CaSO~.xH20 in general and also mixtures of various calcium -sulphates, i.e. it is possible to use, for example, calcium sulphate beta-hemihydrate but also, and indeed in particular, hard plaster having a water requirement of ~ 0.4 such as calcium sulphate alpha-hemihydrate or anhyrite-II or anhydrite-III, if desired as a mixture, with the use of calcium sulphate alpha-hemihydrate being particularly preferred. The calcium sulphate can be used in finely milled or powder $orm. Particularly for use in travelling mixers, it i8 also possible to use moist FGD
gypsum (flue gas desulphurization gypsum) which is then to be m;Ye~ in during the production of the fresh mortar.
The same applies to returned material from travelling mixers which has been freed of ayy~eyate.
Suitable ayy~eyates are, for example, quartz sands, gra~els, chippings or other quartz-cont~;n;ng materials. Furthermore, additives such as stone flours and fly ashes can be added.
In addition, it is possible to add activators, in particular for the slag sand, e.g. chloride, retarders, accelerators, stabilizers and flow improvers.
Several binder compositions and the shrinkage and swelling values of st~n~d mortar prisms prepared therefrom and having an age of 28 days are given below.
