Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a treatment agent and a method for treating a concrete joint surface used when joining concrete.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When constructing a concrete structure, there is a case where a so-called joint portion must be provided for reasons such as construction restrictions. In this case, the joint portion is structurally or watertight. It is important to remove a fragile thin film, that is, latence, formed on the joint surface of the old concrete before casting the new concrete to expose the sound concrete so as not to cause a defect.

In order to remove the latence on the joint surface, it is common to use high-pressure jet water, a wire brush, sandblast, or the like, but recently, ligninsulfonic acid, oxycarboxylic acid, magnesium silicofluoride, etc. have been mainly used. A method using a setting retarder as a component has also been proposed.

That is, on the horizontal joint surface, such a setting retarder is applied or sprayed on the upper surface of the old concrete, and after a predetermined curing period has elapsed, the joint surface is washed out with high-pressure water or the like. After applying a setting retarder to the inner surface of the formwork, or after attaching a sheet impregnated with the retarder, placing old concrete and removing the formwork, the joint surface is subjected to high pressure water or the like. Wash out with. Then, new concrete is cast above or to the side of the joint surface to integrate the old and new concrete.

[0005] In this case, since the action of the setting retarder delays the hardening of the concrete at the joint surface,
Even after a predetermined curing period has elapsed, it is possible to easily remove the latency formed on the joint surface.

[0006]

However, since such a setting retarder is water-soluble, when it comes into contact with breathing water, watering for curing, or rainwater on site, it dissolves in the breathing water or the like, flows out, and causes the joint surface to flow. There have been situations in which it was not possible to wash out as scheduled, or conversely, unintended parts were washed out.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and is a concrete jointing method that can reliably wash out a concrete jointing surface at a site without being affected by breathing water, sprinkling water, rainwater, and the like. It is an object of the present invention to provide a surface treatment agent and a treatment method.

[0008]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, a treatment agent for a concrete joint surface according to the present invention comprises a ligninsulfonic acid, an oxycarboxylic acid, a sodium gluconate or the like. It is obtained by mixing a water-soluble setting retarder and an alkali-decomposable setting retarder which is hardly soluble or insoluble in water and which is hydrolyzed in an alkaline environment and the decomposition product delays hardening of concrete.

Further, as described in claim 2, the agent for treating a concrete joint surface according to the present invention is difficult to dissolve in water-soluble setting retarders such as ligninsulfonic acid, oxycarboxylic acid, sodium gluconate and water. An alkali-decomposable setting retarder which is soluble or insoluble and which hydrolyzes in an alkaline environment and whose decomposition product delays the hardening of concrete is laminated on each other.

[0010] In the treatment agent for concrete joint surface according to the present invention, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder is mainly composed of glycol and dibasic acid, and has a weight average molecular weight of 300.
To 25,000 unsaturated polyesters.

Further, the treatment agent for a concrete joint surface according to the present invention is obtained by crosslinking the unsaturated polyester with a predetermined monomer.

[0012] In the treatment agent for a concrete joint surface according to the present invention, the monomer is a styrene monomer, and the amount of the monomer is 1 to 50 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the unsaturated polyester. .

In the method for treating a concrete joint surface according to the present invention, as described in claim 6, water-soluble setting retarders such as ligninsulfonic acid, oxycarboxylic acid and sodium gluconate and water are difficult. An alkali-decomposable setting retarder, which is soluble or insoluble and hydrolyzes in an alkaline environment, and the decomposition product delays the hardening of the concrete, is disposed on the concrete joining surface. Is to wash out.

[0014] In the treatment agent for concrete joint surface according to the first aspect of the present invention, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder which is insoluble or hardly soluble in water even when exposed to breathing water, sprinkling water, rain water, etc. They do not elute there, but also act as a binder for the water-soluble setting retarder, and suppress the elution of the water-soluble setting retarder.

On the other hand, when the concrete comes into contact with the poured fresh concrete, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder is hydrolyzed by the alkali water of the concrete and is eluted into the concrete. Retarders also elute in concrete. Then, the hardening of the concrete is delayed to a depth corresponding to the mixing ratio or mixing amount of each setting retarder.

[0016] In the treatment agent for the joint surface of concrete according to the second aspect of the invention, the treatment agent of the present invention is arranged such that the alkali-decomposable setting retarder is in contact with the concrete.

In this case, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder which is insoluble or hardly soluble in water does not elute in contact with breathing water, sprinkling water, rain water, etc.
The water-soluble setting retarder also remains coated with the alkali-decomposable setting retarder and does not flow out into breathing water or the like.

On the other hand, when the concrete comes into contact with the poured fresh concrete, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder is hydrolyzed by the alkali water of the concrete and elutes into the concrete. Subsequently, the water-soluble setting retarder is also exposed to the concrete. To elute. Then, the hardening of the concrete is delayed to a depth corresponding to the thickness ratio or the thickness of each setting retarder.

The alkali-decomposable setting retarder is a setting retarder which is hardly soluble or insoluble in water and which is hydrolyzed in an alkaline environment and the decomposition product of which retards the hardening of concrete. For example, the weight average molecular weight of a glycol and a dibasic acid as main components is 3
00-25000 unsaturated polyesters can be used.

When the unsaturated polyester is crosslinked with a predetermined monomer, it is possible to improve the strength characteristics when cured and to improve the water resistance against rainwater and the like.

When the monomer is a styrene-based monomer and the amount thereof is 1 to 50 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the unsaturated polyester, the above-mentioned strength characteristics and water resistance can be further improved. .

In the method for treating a concrete joint surface according to a sixth aspect of the present invention, concrete is jointed in a state where a water-soluble setting retarder and an alkali-decomposable setting retarder are mixed with each other or laminated. It is placed on a surface, and after a predetermined curing period has elapsed, the joint surface is washed out.

In this way, the water-soluble setting retarder is
When it comes into contact with breathing water, etc., its elution is suppressed or prevented by the alkali-degradable setting retarder, and when it comes into contact with the alkaline water of concrete, it elutes into the concrete together with or subsequently to the alkali-degradable setting retarder, and is mixed. Delays the hardening of concrete to a ratio, mixing amount, thickness ratio or depth according to thickness.

[0024]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of a treatment agent and a method for treating a concrete joint surface according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a state in which the treatment agent 1 for a concrete joint surface according to the present embodiment is applied to the treatment of a vertical joint surface. The treating agent 1 according to the present embodiment is prepared by mixing a water-soluble setting retarder and an alkali-decomposable setting retarder into a sheet shape as shown in FIG. The sheet 2 is attached.

As the water-soluble setting retarder, a commercially available setting retarder containing ligninsulfonic acid, oxycarboxylic acid, sodium gluconate or the like as a main component can be used.

On the other hand, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder is hardly soluble or insoluble in water and hydrolyzes in an alkaline environment, and the decomposition product has a property of delaying the hardening of concrete. Specifically, a polyester obtained by crosslinking an unsaturated polyester containing glycol and a dibasic acid as main components with a styrene monomer is preferable.

Here, the glycol preferably has a dihydric alcohol such as ethylene glycol or propylene glycol or a polyoxyalkylene glycol which is a polymer thereof as a main component.

When the unsaturated polyester has a weight average molecular weight of 300 or less, the setting retarding effect as a setting retarder decreases, and when the weight average molecular weight is 25,000 or more, the addition and mixing of the styrene monomer becomes difficult due to an increase in melt viscosity. Inconvenience. Therefore, the weight average molecular weight of the unsaturated polyester is 300 to 2500.
It is better to set to 0.

The styrenic monomer is added as a crosslinking component for curing the unsaturated polyester which is often oily, and improves the mechanical properties of the unsaturated polyester as a resin and also serves as a retarder. It is added for the purpose of controlling water resistance.

When the amount of the styrene monomer is 1 part by weight or less based on 100 parts by weight of the unsaturated polyester, the mechanical properties and water resistance of the unsaturated polyester are insufficiently improved, and the amount of the styrene-based monomer is 50 parts by weight or more. , There is a disadvantage that the setting delay effect is insufficient. Therefore, the addition amount of the styrene monomer is preferably 1 to 50 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the unsaturated polyester.

The curing of the unsaturated polyester resin is performed by
It is carried out by polymerizing styrene and simultaneously crosslinking with unsaturated polyester by a radical initiator such as an organic peroxide, and it is possible to cure at room temperature. , 60 to 2
It may be carried out under a temperature condition of about 00 ° C, and a curing accelerator such as an organic acid salt of cobalt can be used in combination to further promote crosslinking.

The mixing ratio of the water-soluble setting retarder and the alkali-decomposable setting retarder or the amount of each is appropriately adjusted according to the desired washing depth. here,
The relationship between the mixing ratio or the mixing amount and the washing depth may be checked in advance by performing an indoor experiment or an on-site experiment. That is, for example, a water-soluble setting retarder that can be washed out to a depth of about 3 mm to 50 mm and the above-described alkali-decomposable setting retarder are mixed in various ratios and in various amounts to produce the treating agent 1, If the washing is actually performed using the treatment agent 1, the relationship between the mixing ratio or the mixing amount and the washing depth can be known.

The reinforcing sheet 2 is made of a plastic film,
What is necessary is just to select suitably from paper, cloth, or other materials having a certain strength.

In order to treat the vertical joint surface using the treating agent 1, first, as shown in FIG. 3A, the sheet-like treating agent 1 is applied so that the reinforcing sheet 2 is on the mold side. It is attached to the inner surface of the mold 4 with an adhesive or the like.

Next, as shown in FIG. 3B, concrete 5 is cast and cured for a predetermined period.

In this way, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder which is insoluble or hardly soluble in water does not elute to the water itself, even when it comes into contact with breathing water, sprinkling water, rain water, etc. Also acts as a binder for the agent, and suppresses the elution of the water-soluble setting retarder.

On the other hand, when the concrete comes into contact with the poured fresh concrete, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder is hydrolyzed by the alkaline water of the concrete and elutes into the concrete as shown by the arrow in FIG. That is, the unsaturated polyester resin is hydrolyzed with the alkaline water of concrete to produce polyester oligomers, and furthermore, glycols and dibasic acids, which generally suppress the hydration reaction of cement. In addition, the effect of suppressing the hydration reaction of cement is maintained, for example, for a long material age of 28 days by adsorbing the decomposition products generated by the hydrolysis on the surfaces of the cement particles.

In addition to the elution of the alkali-decomposable setting retarder, the water-soluble setting retarder also elutes into the concrete, and thus reaches a depth corresponding to the mixing ratio or mixing amount of each setting retarder during the curing period. Delays concrete hardening.

Next, the formwork 4 and the reinforcing sheet 2 remaining on the formwork surface are removed to expose the joint surface of the concrete, and the joint surface is then removed with high-pressure water or the like as shown in FIG. To remove the latence formed on the surface layer of the joint surface.
Then, new concrete is cast on the side of the joint surface to integrate the old and new concrete.

Next, some experiments for confirming the performance of the alkali-decomposable setting retarder described above were conducted, and the outline thereof will be described.

First, as an initial experiment, 50 mg of a setting retarder obtained by adding 5 parts by weight of a styrene monomer to 100 parts by weight of this unsaturated polyester was added to an unsaturated polyester having a weight average molecular weight of 2,000, It was immersed in alkaline water at room temperature, taken out every hour, and its weight was measured to determine the amount of the setting retarder eluted in alkaline water. For comparison, a similar experiment was performed on ordinary water. Table 1 shows the results.

[0043]

[Table 1] As can be seen from the table, a certain amount of elution was observed for alkaline water, but almost no elution was observed for ordinary water. From this, it is considered that the alkali-decomposable setting retarder of the present embodiment hardly elutes even when it comes into contact with water spray, rain water, breathing water, or the like.

In the next experiment, a washing sheet formed with the same alkali-decomposable setting retarder as described above was cut into 9 cm squares, and this was cut into a section of 60 cm and a height of 180 cm as shown in FIG.
m on the inner surface of the mold of the test specimen and the bottom surface and 45 cm from the bottom surface,
90cm, 135cm, and 175cm are attached to each of the five locations at a total height, concrete is poured into the formwork, and after a curing period, the mold is removed and washed out with pressure water,
The washing depth at that time was measured.

The same experiment was conducted using a commercially available water-soluble setting retarder containing polysaccharides and lignin as main components, and the results were compared with those of the alkali-decomposable setting retarder of the present embodiment.

Table 2 summarizes the amounts of setting retarders used in the experiments.

[0047]

[Table 2] FIG. 4 is a graph showing the relationship between the washing depth and the installation height. As can be seen from the figure, in the case of the alkali-decomposable setting retarder according to the present embodiment, the washing depth on the vertical plane was almost the same at any height, and was about 2 mm. From these results, it is considered that the alkali-decomposable setting retarder of the present embodiment is not dissolved in breathing water and does not flow out.

As described above, according to the treating agent and the treating method for the concrete joint surface according to the present embodiment, the outflow to the breathing water or the like, which is a disadvantage of the water-soluble setting retarder, is prevented by the alkali-decomposable setting retarder. While preventing by the combination of
By adjusting the mixing ratio or the mixing amount, a desired washing depth can be obtained in a range of about 3 mm to 50 mm.

For this reason, even concrete having an aggregate particle size of, for example, about 40 mm can be washed out to a sufficient depth, and there is no possibility that the joint surface becomes a structural or watertight defect.

In the present embodiment, the present invention is applied to the vertical joint surface, but it goes without saying that the present invention may be applied to a horizontal joint surface. In such a case, as shown in FIG. 5A, the treatment agent 1 may be left on the upper surface (top end) of the fresh concrete 5.

Even in such a configuration, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder suppresses the outflow of the water-soluble setting retarder with respect to breathing water and the like, and as shown in FIG. Decomposed and eluted in concrete, water-soluble setting retarder also eluted in concrete, thus, during the curing period,
Hardening of concrete is delayed to a depth corresponding to the mixing ratio or amount of each setting retarder. After that,
Reinforcement sheet 2 remaining on concrete surface as shown in (c)
To expose the concrete joint surface,
The joint surface is washed out with high-pressure water or the like as shown in FIG.
The latence formed on the surface of the joint surface is removed. Then, new concrete is cast above the joint surface to integrate the old and new concrete. If the specific gravity of the setting retarder is adjusted to 1 or more, even if it elutes in the breathing water, it will settle in the breathing water and easily adhere to the concrete surface.

In this embodiment, the washing is performed with high-pressure water, but may be performed with a brush or the like instead.

In this embodiment, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder is constituted by using a styrene-based monomer.
Alternatively or additionally, methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, alkyl acrylate, hydroxyethyl acrylate, methacrylate thereof, or the like may be used as a polymerization monomer.

Further, in this embodiment, a mixture of a water-soluble setting retarder and an alkali-decomposable setting retarder is processed into a sheet, and the sheet is attached to a reinforcing sheet to constitute a treating agent. Instead of such a configuration, the reinforcing sheet may be impregnated with a water-soluble setting retarder and an alkali-decomposable setting retarder.

In the present embodiment, the treating agent is formed into a sheet and used. However, the treating agent and the treating method of the present invention are not limited to such a use mode. And an alkali-decomposable setting retarder mixed in a liquid form as a treating agent, and the treating agent is applied to the inner surface of the form or the upper surface of the concrete, sprayed or sprayed, or a foamed mixture is sprayed on the inner surface of the form or the upper surface of the concrete. You may do so. Also, a method such as powdering the mixed treatment agent and bonding it to the inner surface of the formwork, or mixing the powdery treatment agent with sand, or bonding to the inner surface of the formwork in a state covered with sand may be used. Good.

In this configuration, the same effect as described above can be obtained. In the method of coating with sand, the contact area between the treating agent and the concrete is the sum of the surface areas of the sand particles, and thus the concrete. Can be efficiently suppressed. When used in a liquid state, the crosslinking reaction of the monomer may be omitted.

In this embodiment, the water-soluble setting retarder and the alkali-decomposable setting retarder are mixed, but instead, as shown in FIG.
The same water-soluble setting retarder 12 as described above is laminated on the above, and the same alkali-decomposable setting retarder 13 as described above is laminated on the retarder to form a sheet-like treating agent 11. Is also good.

Regarding the thickness of the water-soluble setting retarder 12 and the alkali-decomposable setting retarder 13 and the desired washing depth,
Similar to the mixing ratio or mixing amount described above, a laboratory experiment or the like may be performed by combining a water-soluble setting retarder of various thicknesses and an alkali-decomposable setting retarder, and the washing depth at that time may be checked in advance.

In this configuration, as shown in FIG. 6, the treating agent 11 is attached to the inner surface of the mold 4 so that the alkali-decomposable setting retarder 13 comes into contact with the concrete, and thereafter, as shown in FIG. The concrete 5 is cast as shown in ()).

In this way, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder 13 which is insoluble or hardly soluble in water does not elute in contact with breathing water, sprinkling water, rain water, etc. Also, the state covered with the alkali-decomposable setting retarder 13 is maintained and does not flow out into breathing water or the like.

On the other hand, when the concrete comes into contact with the poured fresh concrete, the alkali-decomposable setting retarder 13 is hydrolyzed by the alkaline water of the concrete and eluted into the concrete 5 as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 7 (b), the water-soluble setting retarder 12
Exposure to elute. And each setting retarder 12, 13
Delays the hardening of concrete to a depth ratio corresponding to the thickness ratio or thickness.

According to such a lamination type, it is also possible to prevent the water-soluble setting retarder from flowing out into breathing water and the like by using an alkali-decomposable setting retarder in combination and to adjust the thickness ratio or each thickness thereof. , 3m
The desired washing depth can be obtained in the range from about m to about 50 mm, and the elution of the water-soluble setting retarder by the alkali-decomposable setting retarder is almost complete until several hours have elapsed since the casting. Is blocked. Therefore, there is another effect that the possibility that the water-soluble setting retarder comes into contact with the breathing water and flows out is extremely reduced.

And water-soluble, water-soluble, and rainwater, which are formed by mixing an alkali-decomposable setting retarder that is hardly soluble or insoluble in water and hydrolyzes in an alkaline environment, and the decomposition product delays hardening of concrete. Thus, it is possible to reliably wash out the concrete joint surface at the site without being affected by such factors.

Further, as described in claim 2, the agent for treating a concrete joint surface according to the present invention is difficult to treat with a water-soluble setting retarder such as ligninsulfonic acid, oxycarboxylic acid, sodium gluconate and water.
