Description

  TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a method for producing a cement-based molded body, and more specifically, curing and curing in a technology for molding a cement-based material and curing and curing the cement-based curing material used for an exterior material of a building. It is directed to a method for producing a previous cement-based molded body.

It is well known to use cement-based hardeners as building exterior materials. It is considered to have excellent mechanical strength and durability.
In order to enhance the appearance design of the exterior material made of a cement-based hardener, an uneven pattern or pattern shape is formed on the surface.
As a method of forming a concavo-convex shape on the surface of a cement-based hardened material, a flat plate-shaped extruded product is manufactured by extruding a cement-based material, and then the concavo-convex shape is formed on the surface of the extruded product by press molding. The method is known.
In Patent Document 1, a cement-based material composed of a cement-containing W / O emulsion is extruded into a plate shape and then press-molded to produce a cement-based molded body having an uneven shape. A curing and curing technique is shown. Compressed air is blown out from a vent hole provided in a press-molding die so that the die can be easily removed from the cement-based molded body.
JP-A-5-246747

However, as in the technique of Patent Document 1, when compressed air is blown out from the vent hole of the press mold to improve the separation of the cement-based molded body from the press mold, the cement mold is placed in the vent hole of the press mold. There is a problem that the material enters and the vent hole is clogged. If the vent hole is clogged, it will not be possible to exert the effect of releasing the mold due to the blowing of compressed air.
In the technique of Patent Document 1, a backflow prevention valve is provided in the vent hole to prevent the cementitious material from entering the vent hole. This complicates the structure of the vent hole. The vent hole to which the backflow prevention valve can be attached becomes considerably large, and if the trace of the vent hole remains on the surface of the cement-based molded body, it becomes noticeable, and the surface quality of the cement-based molded body and the cement-based cured body is impaired. In addition, the cement-based material may enter from the gap between the backflow prevention valve and the vent hole, or the infiltrated cementitious material may solidify, and the backflow prevention valve may not operate sufficiently.

  The object of the present invention is to solve the problem of the technique of blowing compressed air from the vent holes of a press mold in the production of a cement-based molded body by press molding as in the prior art described above. It is to make the separation good.

  A method for producing a cement-based molded body according to the present invention is a method for obtaining a cement-based molded body by extruding a cement-based material and then press-molding the plastic material. After the step (a) for obtaining a molded body, the step (b) for spraying inorganic powder particles on the surface of the extruded molded body after the previous step (a), and the bottom surface after the previous step (b) are uneven. A cement having a concavo-convex shape on the surface, by pressing a press mold having a mold surface from above the extrusion-molded body to press-mold a concavo-convex shape corresponding to the concavo-convex mold surface of the press mold After the step (c) of obtaining a system molded body and the previous step (c), a press mold is performed while jetting pressure air from the jet port provided on the mold surface of the press mold toward the cement-based molded body. (D) separating the cement from the molded body Including the.

[Cement-based materials]
The same materials, blending, and manufacturing techniques as those of ordinary cement-based cured products can be applied to the cement-based material that is the main material of the cement-based molded body.
Those containing a W / O emulsion of oily substance and water and cement are preferred. A polymerizable oily substance is preferable as the oily substance.
Specifically, for example, the techniques described in Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-246747) and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-47040 can be applied.
<Cement>
It is a material that determines basic mechanical strength and other properties of hardened cementitious materials. Normal cement material can be used. Examples thereof include Portland cement, fly ash cement, blast furnace cement, and alumina cement. Multiple types of cement can be used in combination.

10 to 40% by volume can be blended in the cement-based material (in the total amount of the cement-based material including water). Preferably, it is 15-30 volume%.
<Polymerizable oily substance>
Among oily substances capable of forming a W / O emulsion with water, polymerizable substances are used. The polymerizable oily substance is polymerized by a polymerization reaction in the curing and curing process, and constructs a skeleton structure of a cement-based cured body together with cement that is hydrated and cured. When the skeletal structure of the cement-based cured body is well constructed, dimensional shrinkage associated with curing is less likely to occur.
As an oily substance, a hydrophobic liquid substance tends to form a W / O emulsion with water.

As specific examples of the polymerizable oily substance, those having a polymerizable double bond (vinyl monomer) such as styrene, divinylbenzene, methyl methacrylate, trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate, and unsaturated polyester resin are useful. The polymerization reaction of the oily substance having a polymerizable double bond and the hydration reaction of the cement proceed favorably at the same time, and the skeleton structure of the above-mentioned cement-based cured body is favorably formed.
The polymer of the oily substance, together with the cement, constructs a skeleton structure of a cement-based hardened body and determines basic characteristics. It functions to improve the physical properties and surface properties of hardened cementitious materials. Usually, 4 to 10% by volume can be blended in the cement-based material, although it varies depending on the use and required performance of the cement-based cured body and the type of oily substance to be used. Preferably, it is 5-7 volume%.

In order to accelerate the polymerization reaction of the polymerizable oily substance, a polymerization initiator composed of an organic peroxide, a persulfate or the like can be used in combination with the polymerizable oily substance.
<W / O emulsion>
The W / O emulsion is also called a water-in-oil emulsion and is a state in which fine water particles are dispersed in a continuous phase of an oily substance.
By mixing water and a polymerizable oily substance so as to constitute such a W / O emulsion, and stirring and mixing, the target W / O emulsion can be obtained.
As the oily substance, an oily substance other than the polymerizable oily substance described above can be blended. In addition to water, other liquid or solid particles may be added. The cement can be dispersed in the W / O emulsion as fine solid particles.

After preparing the W / O emulsion, other materials such as cement can be mixed, or the emulsification treatment can be performed in a state where other materials are mixed in addition to water and oily substances.
<Emulsifier>
In order to promote the formation of the W / O emulsion, it is effective to add an emulsifier.
As the emulsifier, an emulsifier used in a usual emulsion technique can be used. A material that is effective for forming a W / O emulsion of an oily substance and water, hardly adversely affects the molding and curing of the cementitious material, and does not impair the quality performance of the cemented cured body is preferable.

Specific examples of emulsifiers include nonionic surfactants such as sorbitan sesquioleate, glycerol monostearate, sorbitan monooleate, diethylene glycol monostearate, sorbitan monostearate, diglycerol monooleate, various anionic surfactants, cations And surface active agents.
The amount of emulsifier used varies depending on the blending ratio and required performance of the oily substance and water, but can usually be set in the range of 1 to 3% by volume with respect to the total amount of water and solid content in the cementitious material.
<Reinforcing material>
It is useful for improving physical properties such as mechanical strength of a cement-based cured body.

Various reinforcing materials used in the production of ordinary cement-based hardened bodies can be used. Specifically, there is a material known as a so-called cement aggregate. There are materials known as reinforcing fibers. Examples of the reinforcing fiber include synthetic fibers such as polypropylene fiber, acrylic fiber, vinylon fiber, and aramid fiber, carbon fiber, glass fiber, and pulp. Inorganic particles such as gravel, perlite, shirasu balloon, glass powder, and alumina silicate are also used. There are also porous or hollow inorganic particles.
These reinforcing materials can be blended at about 0.5 to 10% by volume with respect to the total amount of the cementitious material.

<Other materials>
Additive materials used in the production of ordinary cement-based hardeners can be combined. For example, a coloring agent etc. are mentioned.
<Preparation of cement-based material>
Basically, the materials constituting the cement-based material described above may be uniformly stirred and mixed. Each material may be stirred and mixed at the same time, or a part of the materials may be stirred and mixed, and then the remaining materials may be added and further stirred and mixed.
It is desirable to set production equipment and production conditions so that a W / O emulsion of water and an oily substance is formed satisfactorily.

As a stirring device, a dissolver, a screw line mixer, an ultrasonic homogenizer, a colloid mill, a planetary mixer, a static mixer, a nauter mixer, a ribbon blender, a tumble mixer, a paddle mixer, and the like can be used.
It is effective to knead a material whose viscosity is increased by adding cement or a reinforcing material to the W / O emulsion with a kneading apparatus. As the continuous kneading apparatus, a continuous kneader, a twin screw extruder, or the like can be used.
(Extrusion molding)
An extrusion technique for ordinary cementitious materials is applied.

The extruded material corresponding to the die shape of the extrusion die is obtained by extruding the cement-based material supplied to the extrusion molding device from the extrusion die. By extruding the cement-based material intermittently, or by cutting the continuous extruded body obtained by continuous extrusion molding into predetermined dimensions, an extruded body having a predetermined dimension and shape can be obtained. .
The shape of the extrusion-molded body is generally a rectangular plate-like shape that is extruded by a rectangular extrusion die, for example. By changing the detailed shape of the extrusion die, it is possible to form a rectangular thick plate having longitudinal grooves or ridges.
The extruded product is in a plastic state and can be easily deformed.

[Dispersion of inorganic powder]
As the inorganic particles, a material that is effective for preventing clogging of the injection port of the press mold and does not adversely affect the quality performance of the manufactured cement-based molded body or cement-based cured body is used.
Specific examples of the inorganic powder include silica sand, slag pulverized material, glass pulverized material, ceramic pulverized material, and iron sand. The average particle diameter of the inorganic powder can be set to 500 to 700 μm. If the particle size of the inorganic particles is too small, it will be completely buried inside the cementitious material during press molding, and the jet port will not be blocked. It enters inside the spout and remains attached. If the particle size is too large, inorganic powder particles are too conspicuous on the surface of the cement-based molded body, and the surface texture may be impaired, or the surface may become rough.

The inorganic powder particles can be sprayed manually or can be sprayed from a nozzle or the like together with air. The time of spraying may be immediately after the extrusion, or may be a state in which the extruded product is slightly dried.
What is necessary is just to set the dispersion | spreading amount of an inorganic powder particle to the grade which an inorganic powder particle can cover the surface of an extrusion molded object uniformly substantially without a gap. Specifically, the application amount can be set to 30 to 60 g / m ² . If the spraying amount is too small, the desired effect cannot be achieved, and if the spraying amount is too large, the surface properties of the cement-based molded product will be deteriorated, or the inorganic particles will fall off without adhering to the cement-based molded product during press molding. However, the problem which penetrates into a jet nozzle or soils a press mold arises.

〔Press molding〕
Basically, press molding techniques in the production of ordinary cement-based molded bodies can be applied except that an extruded molded body in which inorganic particles are dispersed is used.
The press molding apparatus usually includes a pair of molds and a press mechanism that applies a press pressure to the molds. Of the pair of molds, one mold is fixed and the other mold is movable. Usually, the concave and convex shape corresponding to the concave and convex shape to be press-molded on the cement-based molded body is provided on the mold surface of the movable mold. Therefore, the movable mold may be referred to as a press mold, and the fixed mold may be simply referred to as a support plate or a support table for the extruded product. Of course, if necessary, the mold surface of the fixed mold may be provided with an uneven shape for press molding. In a general press molding apparatus, a fixed mold and a movable mold are arranged vertically.

An upper movable mold, that is, a press mold having a concave and convex mold surface on the lower surface is pressed from above the extrusion molded body, and an uneven shape corresponding to the concave and convex mold surface of the press mold on the surface of the extrusion molded body Is pressed to obtain a cement-based molded body having an uneven shape on the surface.
The press pressure for pressing the press mold varies depending on the material composition of the extruded molded body and the required performance of the cement-based cured body to be finally produced, but is usually in the range of 0.5 to 1.0 MPa. Can be set. If the press pressure is too low, sufficient press molding cannot be performed. If the press pressure is too high, the inorganic powder particles are completely buried in the cement-based material, and the function of preventing the clogging of the jet port cannot be performed.

The die surface of the press mold is provided with a jet port that makes it easy to separate the cement-based molded product. The spouts can be arranged evenly over the entire mold surface, or can be placed in a location that is effective for separating the cement-based molded body from the mold.
The size of the ejection port can be set to such an extent that the compressed air can be sufficiently ejected and the trace of the ejection port remains in the cement-based molded body and is not noticeable. Specifically, the nozzle diameter can be set to 0.2 to 0.8 mm.
The pressure of the pressure air ejected from the ejection port is set so that the desired cement-based molded article can be released from the mold. Specifically, the pressure can be set to 100 to 400 kPa. If the pressure is too low, it is difficult to achieve the object, and if the pressure is too strong, there arises a problem that the surface of the cement-based molded body is deformed or damaged.

The time when the pressurized air is ejected from the ejection port is a mold opening stage in which the press mold is separated from the molded cement-based molded body. The pressure air may be ejected simultaneously with the start of the mold opening, the pressure air may be ejected immediately before the mold opening, or the pressure air may be ejected with a slight delay from the start of the mold opening. The jet of pressurized air is required in the initial stage of mold opening. If the surface of the cement-based molded body is separated from the mold surface of the press mold, the jet of pressurized air is not necessary.
As for the cement-type molded object obtained after press molding, the uneven | corrugated shape corresponding to the type | mold surface shape of a shaping | molding die is formed in the surface.

[Curing curing of cement-based moldings]
A cement-based cured body is obtained by curing the cement-based molded body.
Basically, a curing and curing apparatus and curing and curing conditions in a normal cement-based cured body manufacturing technique are applied. For example, steam curing, autoclave curing, etc. are adopted.
The curing conditions vary depending on the blending of cementitious materials and the performance required of the cementitious hardened body, but are usually set at 40 to 100 ° C. for 20 to 48 hours. During the curing process, the temperature can be changed stepwise or continuously.
[Cement hardened body]
When the curing of the cement-based molded body is completed, a cement-based cured body is obtained.

Similar to the cement-based molded body, the cement-based cured body has an uneven shape on the surface, and is used as an exterior board for construction.
Since the inorganic particles dispersed on the surface of the cement-based molded body are embedded in the extrusion-molded body at the press molding stage, the inorganic powder particles substantially protrude prominently on the surface of the cement-based cured body. There is nothing. Even when the surface of the cement-based cured body is rubbed, the inorganic powder particles do not fall off.

  In the method for producing a cement-based molded body according to the present invention, a pressing mold is pressed on the surface of an extruded molded body obtained by extruding a cement-based material to form a concavo-convex shape. In the method of separating from the cement-based molded body while spraying, inorganic powder particles are dispersed on the surface of the extruded molded body. As a result, the injection port of the press mold is not clogged with cementitious material. Pressure air can be sufficiently ejected from the ejection port, and the mold release of the press mold from the cement-based molded body becomes good. Since the mold release of the press mold from the cement-based molded body cannot be performed satisfactorily, the problem that the surface of the cement-based molded body is partially peeled or the uneven shape is distorted can be solved.

1 to 4 show in steps the manufacturing process of the cement-based molded body M for manufacturing the cement-based exterior plate P shown in FIG.
(Extrusion molding)
As shown in FIG. 1, a cement-based material is extruded in a plate shape from an extrusion die 21 of an extrusion molding device 20 onto a floor plate 24 made of a thin steel plate having a thickness of 0.22 mm placed on a support base 22. . By moving the support base 22 and the floor plate 24 in the horizontal direction with respect to the extrusion die 21 of the extrusion molding apparatus 20, the thick plate-like extruded molded body 10 continuous in a strip shape is obtained. The extruded product 10 is cut into predetermined lengths. The surface of the obtained extruded product 10 is flat. The extruded product 10 is still soft and plastic, and the surface is sticky. For example, an extruded product 10 having a length of 370 cm, a width of 90 cm, and a thickness of 30 mm is obtained.

Silica sand is sprayed as inorganic powder particles 16 from the spray nozzle 26 onto the surface of the extruded product 10. A thin layer of inorganic powder particles 16 that uniformly covers the entire surface of the extruded body 10 is formed. For example, No. 4 silica sand (manufactured by Tohoku Silica Sand Co., Ltd.) having an average particle diameter of about 740 μm is sprayed as inorganic powder 16 at a rate of 50 g / m ² .
The extruded product 10 on which the inorganic powder particles 16 are dispersed is sent to the next step while being placed on the floor plate 24.
〔Press molding〕
As shown in FIG. 2, the extruded body 10 placed on the floor plate 24 is disposed on a rigid support plate 32 made of steel or the like disposed below the press mold 30.

<Press molding equipment>
The press mold 30 is made of an epoxy resin and includes a resin mold 34 having a predetermined uneven shape on the lower surface. An air introduction chamber 37 in a sealed space is provided on the upper back surface of the resin mold 34. A pressure air pipe 36 is connected to the air introduction chamber 37 and pressure air is introduced. An air outlet 35 that penetrates the resin mold 34 from the air introduction chamber 37 and opens on the lower surface of the resin mold 34 is provided. Many jet nozzles 35 are arranged at intervals over the entire lower surface of the resin mold 34. For example, the nozzle holes 35 having a diameter of 0.5 mm are arranged with a pitch interval of 5 cm.
<Closing stage>
As shown in FIG. 3, a press device (not shown) is operated to lower the press mold 30. The resin mold 34 comes into contact with the extruded product 10. The resin mold 34 comes into contact with the extruded body 10 through the inorganic powder particles 16 present on the surface of the extruded body 10.

By applying a pressing pressure to the press mold 30, the extrusion molded body 10 is molded according to the concave-convex shape of the lower surface of the resin mold 34. When the tip of the resin mold 34 is lowered to the extent that it abuts against the floor plate 24 or the support board 32, the mold closing operation of the press mold 30 is completed. For example, the press pressure is set to 0.7 MPa.
In addition, a part or all of the individual particles of the inorganic powder 16 are pressed into the extruded product 10 by press molding. The surface of the molded extruded product 10 is in a state where the inorganic powder particles 16 embedded in the extruded product 10 are exposed side by side.
Since the surface of the extrusion molded body 10 is flexible and sticky, when a strong pressure is applied from the resin mold 34, the extrusion molded body 10 adheres strongly to the resin mold 34 or the extrusion molded body 10 is clogged in the ejection port 35 of the resin mold 34. Sometimes. However, since the inorganic powder particles 16 are hard and not sticky, the presence of the layer of the inorganic powder particles 16 on the surface of the extruded product 10 prevents the extruded product 10 from sticking to the resin mold 34. In particular, the extrusion molded body 10 is prevented from clogging the ejection port 35. In addition, even if a part of the inorganic powder particles 16 enters the ejection port 35, it does not adhere to the inner surface of the ejection port 35 and become clogged.

<Opening stage>
As shown in FIG. 4, the press mold 30 is raised. On the support board 32, the cement-type molded object M by which the uneven | corrugated shape was shape | molded on the surface is obtained.
Pressure air is supplied from the pressure air pipe 36 to the air introduction chamber 37 when the press mold 30 starts to rise or slightly before. The compressed air is blown from the air introduction chamber 37 through the jet port 35 toward the surface of the extruded product 10. When the compressed air enters between the extruded molded body 10 and the resin mold 34, the extruded molded body 10 is easily separated from the resin mold 34.
However, if the extruded product 10 is strongly adhered to the resin mold 34, or if a part of the extruded product 10 enters and adheres to the inside of the ejection port 35, the extruded product 10 can be obtained even if sprayed with pressurized air. Therefore, the resin mold 34 is hardly peeled off. Depending on the case, a part of the extrusion-molded body 10 may be peeled off from the main body part while remaining attached to the resin mold 34. In some cases, a part of the extrusion-molded body 10 remains in the resin mold 34 while being stuck in the ejection port 35. If the jet port 35 remains clogged, no pressurized air is jetted from the jet port 35, so that the extrusion molded body 10 and the resin mold 34 in the vicinity thereof cannot be separated successfully.

However, since the layer of the inorganic powder particles 16 is present on the surface of the extruded molded body 10, the extruded molded body 10 is easily separated without sticking to the resin mold 34. Even if a part of the inorganic powder particles 16 enters the ejection port 35 of the resin mold 34, the inorganic powder particles 16 are ejected by the ejection of the pressure air. It is also difficult for a portion of the extruded molded body 10 to remain clogged in the ejection port 35.
[Cement hardener]
The obtained cement-type molded object M is sent to a curing curing process. FIG. 5 shows a cement-based curing material P obtained after curing and curing.
The cement-based hardener P is used to construct an exterior wall surface of a building. On the surface, small rectangular convex portions 14 are arranged in the front, rear, left, and right directions, and the concave grooves 12 are arranged in a grid pattern between the convex portions 14 in the vertical and horizontal directions. An outer wall having a high appearance design can be configured.

  The inorganic powder particles 16 dispersed on the surface of the extruded product 10 are embedded in the extruded product 10 by press molding and cured and cured in that state. Therefore, the inorganic powder particles 16 are in a state of being completely integrated with the cement-based hardener P. Even if the surface of the cement-based hardener P is rubbed, the inorganic powder particles 16 do not fall off. If the inorganic powder particles 16 are quartz sand, the surface texture of the cementitious hardener P itself is not greatly changed. Moreover, the granular feeling of the inorganic powder particles 16 has an effect of giving an appearance design similar to the surface texture of natural rocks.

  The manufacturing method of the cement-type molded object concerning this invention can be utilized for manufacture of the exterior material which consists of a cement-type hardening material for finishing outer walls, such as a house, for example. As a cement-based molded body that is a cement-based hardener having a high appearance design with a concavo-convex shape on the surface, a product excellent in quality performance can be produced with high productivity.
