Description

STABILISING SURFACES WITH MAGNESIUM CEMENTS
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a method and composition for stabilising a surface.
More particularly, the method and composition of the present invention relate to the use of magnesium oxychloride and magnesium oxysulphate cements as dust palliatives and particularly in the stabilising or sealing of unsealed granular aggregate surfaces and as cementatious binders of granular aggregate bases.
Background Art
Magnesium cement is a term used to refer to various compositions having as basic ingredients magnesium oxide (MgO), magnesium chloride (MgCI2) and water. It is also variously known as "Sorel Cement".
Sorel Cement is variously described as having formulas 2MgO.MgCI2.4H20, 3MgO.MgCI2.8H20, 5MgO.MgCI2.8H20 and 9MgO.MgCI2.5H20. Typically, Sorel Cement consists of magnesium oxide (also known as calcined magnesia) mixed with an aqueous solution of magnesium chloride.
It is known in the prior art that cement, with the addition of aggregate (various sands, gravels and native soils - either naturally occurring or manufactured) and water is used to prepare concrete, which has a vast number of uses in the modern world. The most commonly used cements for concrete preparation are "Portland Cement" and "Asphalt Cement". Portland cement suffers from slow setting characteristics and substantial curing times.
Despite careful selection of cement and aggregate, virtually all cementatious surfaces are prone to cracking, pitting, oxidisation and the formation of other deformations and imperfections. Various methods have been used to repair broken concrete surfaces. Traditional methods involve applying more concrete to the affected area. This is unsatisfactory when using Portland cement as the concrete shrinks on curing, thereby weakening the bond between the two surfaces. More recently, resin or epoxy-type materials have also been used. Their success has been limited by their deterioration by heat and ultraviolet radiation.
Asphaltic cement is mixed with various aggregates to form an asphaltic concrete pavement. It has the advantage over Portland cement based concrete in that it is much less prone to cracking and doesn't need to have expansion joints incorporated into its design. It does, however, usually require specialized application equipment and is best applied as a hot mixture. It is also a non- renewable petroleum product with attendant environmental issues such as the release of hydrocarbons into the environment.
Sorel cement has been used in the repairing of Portland concrete surfaces (US Patent 5110361 ). Sorel cement offers advantages over Portland cement in that it sets much faster, has high structural strength and suffers from less shrinkage on curing.
Various Sorel cement compositions have been used in the repair of Portland concrete surfaces (US Patent 4838941). Advantageously, salt lakes have been found to be a good source of magnesium chloride, unexpectedly resulting in a cement composition with higher strength than when using known solutions of magnesium chloride. It is expected that the existence of salts other than magnesium chloride in the salt lake solutions "synergistically" react with the magnesium oxide, although this remains simply an empirical observation.
Further sources of magnesium chloride are known to be bitterns (US Patent 4838941), the concentrated saline solutions remaining after the evaporation of the major water content and the extraction of the bulk of the common salt content of sea water.
Dust emission from unpaved roads is a significant expense. Dust palliatives are known to be used extensively on these surfaces to reduce dust emission and surface erosion. A dust palliative is a compound applied to dust particles to coat individual particles and to bind such particles together to prevent them becoming airborne.
For many reasons it may be uneconomic for unpaved roads to be stabilised with relatively expensive materials, including asphalt concrete pavements. Asphalt concrete pavements must be applied and transported whilst hot, resulting in dangerous working conditions and a dangerous goods classification with respect to transport. Further, asphalt concrete pavements suffer from incompatibility with high silica soils and a tendency to "strip" or 'fall off'. Hence, there is a desire to form a relatively cheap, viable alternative.
Traditional methods of coating roads or other surfaces include the use of acrylics, chlorides, emulsions, enzymes, lignins, organic oils, polymers, resins and surfactants. Such surface treatments often strip, crack, separate or disintegrate with exposure to the elements to release fugitive dust and permit undesirable erosion. Solutions of magnesium chloride alone can be used as a dust palliative but these suffer from a tendency to form slick surfaces in the presence of clay or water, creating a potential hazard. Other known palliatives may release toxic and undesirable elements into the environment.
There is a need for a dust palliative and stabiliser that provides a useful alternative to those already known in the industry. It would be an advancement in the art to provide a dust palliative and stabiliser that provides both a high degree of stability for unpaved or unsealed surfaces, whilst overcoming the abovementioned problems associated with the prior art.
The preceding discussion of the prior art is intended to facilitate an understanding of the present invention only. It should be appreciated that the discussion is not an acknowledgement or admission that any of the material referred to was part of the common general knowledge in Australia as at the priority date of the application. Throughout the specification, unless the context requires otherwise, the word "comprise" or variations such as "comprises" or "comprising", will be understood to imply the inclusion of a stated integer or group of integers but not the exclusion of any other integer or group of integers.

Best Mode(s) for Carrying Out the Invention
The method and composition of the present invention will now be described, by way of example only, with reference to two embodiments thereof.
The composition may either be used as a surface treatment, or preferably, incorporated into the surface with a motor grader, rotary hoe, road stabiliser/scarifier or similar means. Before being completely cured, the slurry is rolled in the normal manner to provide a suitable stabilised road surface. Alternatively, the slurry may be mixed with an aggregate in a pug mill mixer prior to application to the surface.
The cement composition of the present invention is prepared to efficiently bind the existing surface, but not so that it has insufficient flexibility and resistance to deleterious cracking. The strength may be adjusted by changing the amount of water present in the composition or by the percentage of slurry to aggregate - normally 1% - 15% by weight.
The method of the present invention can be seen to provide an effective method of stabilising or sealing otherwise improving materials used in civil engineering construction, including roads, road bases and sub-bases, road shoulders, batters, median strips, drains and culverts, backfill, floodways, driveways, pathways and similar by the addition of magnesium cement into or onto that surface.
In one embodiment of the invention, magnesium oxide (3000 kg; 94.5 % purity) and an aqueous solution of magnesium chloride (3500 L; 1.22 - 1.32 gml_"1) are combined in a mixing tank comprising a mechanically powered agitation shaft. After the magnesium oxide powder and the magnesium chloride solution were thoroughly mixed, a waterproofing agent was added to assist in the final waterproofing of the cement. The waterproofing agent was 2.5 % by weight of a cationic acrylic co-polymer emulsion (50 % solids content).
The resultant slurry was blended at the site to be stabilised and removed from the inside of the tank before it hardened and applied to the unsealed surface at a desired rate. The desired rates are exemplified in the following non-limiting Examples. The surfaces that were treated in the Examples were small sections of untreated truck and bus pullouts. All of the surfaces were scarified by known means prior to application of the magnesium cement composition.

The boundary between the cemented surface and the untreated gravel remained clearly evident.
Example 4
In accordance with a second embodiment of the invention, a 150 mm thick layer of blue metal gravel was placed and shaped by a "bobcat" on a hard-stand area in a truckyard. The gravel was treated with a slurry comprising magnesium oxide mixed into a 30% magnesium chloride solution. The resultant 3050kgs of slurry was calculated to be 7% of the total weight of the blue metal.
The slurry was mechanically sprayed onto the surface to be stabilised and incorporated by a rotary hoe. A small, steel-drum roller was used to compact and flatten the blue metal gravel. In order to achieve a smooth, sealed surface a final slurry was sprayed on top of the final surface and left to set. The resultant hard- stand has been in constant use by forklift and truck traffic without visible signs of wear.
