Description

Method for rapidly evaluating printability of slurry in 3D printing of cement-based material and application
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of 3D printing building materials, and particularly relates to a method for rapidly evaluating the printability of slurry in 3D printing of a cement-based material and application thereof.
Background
The 3D printing process of extruded concrete determines that the printing paste needs to meet unique rheological requirements to achieve good printability. The printability of the slurry means that the rheological parameter of the slurry is just maintained in a certain specific range, and meanwhile, the slurry has better fluidity so that the slurry can be extruded smoothly and has better collapse-keeping performance so that the slurry has certain shaping capability after being extruded. Early Le et al examined extrudability and constructability of the slurry by continuously extruding length and number of printable layers, respectively, and the evaluation of constructability was based primarily on visual inspection of the underlying layer without significant distortion. With the development of 3D printing technology in the building field in recent years, methods for evaluating printability through rheological properties such as yield stress, fluidity, shear strength and the like have been derived. However, since the current 3D printing system does not form a unified standard, various parameters obtained by those skilled in the art can be printed in different ranges, so that the applicability of the above-mentioned evaluation method is not strong. In addition, when the person skilled in the art performs the mix ratio design, most of them determine the printable formulation through the pre-printing test, and then reversely measure the printable range of the relevant evaluation index instead of the forward design. Therefore, a rapid, efficient and highly universal evaluation method is needed, guidance is provided for forward design of the 3D printing cement-based material, test cost in the mix proportion design stage is reduced, and working efficiency is improved.

(2) By the linear relationship of yield stress τ and slump s: τ=3.30ρ (H-s), where ρ is the slurry density, H is the slump cylinder height, resulting in a slump printable range: s is(s) 1 <s<s 2
(3) To ensure the accuracy of the evaluation, the evaluation is carried out with the aid of the table jump mobility index d, and the mobility range can be determined according to reference values provided by documents or equipment manufacturers: d, d 1 <d<d 2
(4) After the preparation of the slurry is finished, slump and table jump fluidity tests are respectively carried out at more than one different time nodes, after slump value s and fluidity value d are obtained, normalization treatment is carried out, and slump index p is carried out s Fluidity index p d Drawing in the same scatter diagram; wherein,

Detailed Description
The invention will be described in further detail with reference to the drawings and the specific embodiments.
Example 1
A method for rapidly evaluating the printability of slurry in 3D printing of cement-based materials, as shown in fig. 1, comprising the following specific steps:
(1) Determining upper and lower thresholds for yield stress τ of printable slurries
According to the thixotropic theory of the Bingham fluid, the optimal yield stress range of the printable slurry is obtained by combining the actual printer system parameters.
Bingham fluid refers to a linear relationship between shear stress and shear rate, but only begins to flow when the shear stress is greater than the yield stress; the fluid has a gel structure at rest.
When the optimal yield stress range for printing the slurry is calculated theoretically, the maximum extrusion force provided by the extruding device of the printing system and the overlying pressure required to be born by the slurry in the deposition process, which is determined by the size of the nozzle, the discharging speed and the like, are considered.
The printability of the 3D printing material means that the slurry has a certain fluidity and can be extruded smoothly, and after extrusion, the slurry can lose fluidity to bear the coating pressure of the subsequent printing layer. Therefore, the yield stress τ of the theoretical printable slurry should be less than the maximum extrusion stress P provided by the extrusion device extrusion But is greater than the dead weight pressure P of the subsequent printing layer layer I.e. the yield stress τ should be:
P layer <τ<P extrusion
wherein, the maximum extrusion stress P of the extrusion device extrusion The material can be provided by equipment manufacturers or obtained according to actual measurement, the larger the value is, the more favorable the material is discharged, namely, the smaller the limiting effect of the extrusion type is, and the larger the adjustable range of the mixing ratio is; the extrusion forces available from the feed systems of the various printers are different, and generally: p (P) Pumping type >P Closed extrusion type >P Open screw type . Post-coating pressure P layer Directly related to the actual printing parameters of printing speed, nozzle diameter, etc., is a function of time t, abbreviated herein as p layer =ρgh (t), where: ρ is the slurryDensity, g=9.8N/kg, h is print layer height.
The optimum yield stress range of the printable slurry can be determined from the above equation:
τ 1 <τ<τ 2
(2) Obtaining the slump range of printable slurry according to the linear relation between the yield stress tau and the slump s
The yield stress test cost is high, and the slump test is widely applied to the evaluation of slurry workability in engineering practice, and has the characteristics of convenient operation, low test cost and the like. Concerning the relation between yield stress and slump, there has been a more intensive study, and according to the theoretical results in the literature (Chidiac S E, habibbeigi F, chan D.Slump and slump flow for characterizing yield stress of fresh concrete [ J ]. Aci Materials Journal,2006,103 (6): 413-418.), the linear relation between yield stress τ and slump S is: τ=3.30ρ (H-s), where ρ is the slurry density, H is the slump cylinder height, resulting in a slump printable range:
s 1 <s<s 2
(3) To improve the accuracy of the evaluation, the jump table fluidity index d can be used for the evaluation
The printable range of the diving desk fluidity d can be determined according to a reference value provided by a literature or equipment manufacturer:
d 1 <d<d 2
(4) Slump test and diving table flow test
After the slurry preparation is completed, at 2 different time nodes t 1 、t 2 Respectively carrying out slump and table jump fluidity tests to obtain a slump value s and a fluidity value d, carrying out normalization treatment and obtaining a slump index p s Fluidity index p d Drawn in the same scattergram as shown in fig. 2.
Figure BDA0003101796160000041
In this embodiment, 2 different time nodes can be expanded into a plurality of time nodes, and the fitting of the multi-point data into a curve (the fitting of two points into a straight line) can more accurately reflect the time loss of the fluidity of the slurry.
According to the illustration of fig. 2, the evaluation criteria are as follows:
(a)p 1 as threshold for meeting extrudability, p 2 As a threshold for meeting constructability; when p is s 、p d At the same time fall at p 1 、p 2 When in between, is considered to satisfy printability.
Figure BDA0003101796160000042
(b) Fitting the scatter diagram can obtain an elapsed loss curve of the fluidity of the slurry, and the flatter the curve is, the longer the printable window period is, the curve and p 1 、p 2 The best printable window period (Open time) is between the intersections, i.e. t in FIG. 2 1 ~t 2
Example 2
A method for rapidly evaluating the printability of slurry in 3D printing of cement-based materials comprises the following specific steps:
(1) Determining upper and lower thresholds for yield stress τ of printable slurries
The embodiment adopts a desktop concrete (mortar) 3D printer developed by Jian-yan Hua-Ji corporation, the extruding device is an opening spiral type, the extrusion force which can be provided is smaller, and the extrusion stress P is smaller extrusion 500Pa is taken.
In this example the slurry density ρ=1.65 g/cm 3 A20 mm circular nozzle was used, and the monolayer height h was 10mm. Considering that the strength of the lower printing layer is continuously improved along with the hydration, the dead weight of the subsequent printing layer is not completely born by the yield stress of the slurry. Thus, P layer Can be simplified into dead weight pressure of 2 printing layers. The layer height h is originally a function of time t: h (t), which in this example is reduced to a constant of 2 layers high, i.e. 10mm for a single layer, and 0.02m for two layers high, according to formula P layer =ρgh (t), yielding: p is p layer =1.65×10 3 ×9.8×0.02=323.4Pa。
Thus, the yield stress of the printable slurry should satisfy:
323.4Pa<τ<500Pa
(2) Obtaining the slump range of printable slurry according to the linear relation between the yield stress tau and the slump s
The linear relationship of yield stress τ and slump s is: τ=3.30ρ (H-s), i.e
Figure BDA0003101796160000051
The slump cylinder height h=0.15 mm in this example.
Thus, the slump range of the printable slurry is:
58.2mm<s<90.6mm
namely, the slump s is preferably about 74 mm.
(3) To improve the accuracy of the evaluation, the jump table fluidity index d can be used for the evaluation
The printable range of the fiber cement-based printing material in this embodiment is:
120mm<d<180mm
i.e. the diving table has a mobility d of about 150 mm.
(4) Slump test and diving table flow test
After the slurry preparation is completed, two (or three) slump tests and a diving table fluidity test are respectively carried out at different time periods. In order to map the slump value s and the fluidity value d in the same scattergram, the data is normalized.
According to the illustration in fig. 3, the normalization process of slump s is as follows:
Figure BDA0003101796160000061
then the slump s corresponding evaluation index p s Lower threshold p of (2) 1 Upper threshold p 2 The method comprises the following steps of:
Figure BDA0003101796160000062
Figure BDA0003101796160000063
slump index p of printable slurry s The following should be satisfied: p is 0.78 < s <1.22。
In the same way, the table jump mobility value can be normalized and a table jump mobility index p can be obtained d Is defined in the following range: p is 0.8 < p d <1.2。
For the fiber cement-based slurry in this example, the slurry was treated with water for 12min (t 1 )、22min(t 2 ) Two slump tests and table jump flow tests were performed and the data are shown in table 1 below.
Table 1 example 2 slump and table jump flow measured values and normalization results
Figure BDA0003101796160000064
/>
According to the illustration of fig. 3, the evaluation criteria are as follows:
(a) When p is s ,p d And falls between the two thresholds, the printability is considered to be satisfied. Slump index p at 22min in this example s And diving table fluidity index p d All falling outside the printable range, are considered to be unsatisfactory in extrudability and constructability.
(b) The curve obtained by the scatter fitting in fig. 3 reflects the time-dependent loss of slurry fluidity, with a flatter curve indicating a slower time-dependent loss of fluidity and a longer printable window period. The printable window period of the slurry in the embodiment is 5-17 min after water is added.
