摘要
本研究调查了纤维素醚(CE),尤其是羟乙基甲基纤维素(HEMC)对土方混凝土混合物性能的影响,重点是微观和宏观尺度分析。在微观尺度上,研究了 CE 对流变反应和颗粒相互作用的影响,发现其形成的强大网络可提高临界应变和屈服应力,尤其是在使用粘度较高的聚合物时。对孔隙溶液中总有机碳的分析表明,部分聚合物吸附对桥接固体颗粒和加强颗粒间的相互作用至关重要。从宏观尺度评估来看,28 天的抗压强度明显提高。至于收缩率的降低,在稳定和非稳定土混合料中,聚合物的添加与收缩率的降低之间没有发现明显的相关性。此外,CE 还能明显减少大尺度样品中裂缝的形成,其中以稳定土混合料的效果最为明显--83% 的测试混合料的裂缝有所改善,而非稳定混合料的裂缝只有 45%。CaCO3 的形成进一步表明了它与纤维素基聚合物结合后的影响。总之,CE 可增强土质混凝土混合料的机械性能,在可持续建筑实践中具有广阔的应用前景。
A rheometric approach to investigate the effect of cellulose ether on crack mitigation in earth-based concrete
This study investigates the impact of cellulose ethers (CE), particularly Hydroxyethyl Methyl Cellulose (HEMC), on the properties of earth-concrete mixes, focusing on both micro and macro-scale analyses. At the micro-scale, CE's influence on rheological responses and particle interactions was examined, revealing the formation of a robust network that enhances critical strain and yield stress, particularly with higher viscosity polymers. Analysis of total organic carbon in the pore solution indicated partial polymer adsorption, crucial for bridging solid particles and strengthening interparticle interactions. Moving to the macro-scale evaluation, in terms of compressive strength at 28 days, a notable increase was observed. Regarding shrinkage reduction, no clear correlation was found between polymer addition and shrinkage decrease in both stabilized and unstabilized earth mixes. Moreover, CE significantly mitigated crack formation in macro-scale samples, with the most pronounced effect seen in stabilized earth mixes—83% of tested mixes showed improvement compared to 45% in unstabilized mixes. The presence of CaCO3 formation further suggests its influence when combined with cellulose-based polymers. In conclusion, CE enhances the mechanical properties of earth-concrete mixes, offering promising applications in sustainable construction practices.
