멜라민계 기능성 분쇄조제의 합성 및 이를 적용한 시멘트의 물리적 특성

Synthesis of melamine-type functional grinding aids and physical properties of cement applied to them

Abstract

본 연구는 분쇄효율 향상 및 시멘트의 품질 문제 해결 등 고품질의 시멘트를 제조하기 위하여 멜라민계 기능성 분쇄조제의 합성 및 이를 적용한 시멘트의 물리적 특성을 검토하였다. 시멘트 클링커의 분쇄 효율 및 제조된 시멘트의 물리적 특성을 향상시키기 위하여 멜라민계 공중합체를 methyolation, sulfonation 및 산촉매를 이용하여 polymerzation의 3단계로 나누어 반응을 진행하였다. 합성된 멜라민계 공중합체를 시멘트 클링커 분쇄 공정에 적용하여 기존의 분쇄효율을 향상시키기 위하여 사용되는 DEG(Diethylene glycol)와 압축강도를 향상시키기 위하여 사용되는 TIPA계(Triisopropanol amine) 분쇄조제와의 물리적 특성을 비교하였다. 연구결과 분쇄능의 경우 유기 고분자의 시멘트 입자로의 안정한 흡착으로 표면 에너지를 감소시킴에 따라 기존 DEG와 TIPA계 분쇄조제 대비 분말도는 4~6% 증진시키는 것으로 나타났으며, 압축강도는 기존 DEG 대비 초기 강도에 있어서는 약 30%, 28일 재령의 경우 약 13%이상의 강도 증진 효과가 확인됨에 따라 전체적인 품질은 기존 분쇄조제 대비 향상된 것으로 나타났다.

This study intended to manufacture high quality cement, such as solving the quality problem of cement which has been emerging recently, along with improving grinding efficiency. To this end, the synthesis of melamine-functional pulverizing agents and the physical properties of cement applying them were reviewed and the reaction was carried out by dividing the melamine airborne compound into three stages of polymerization using methylation, sulfonation, and acid catalyst to improve the crushing efficiency of cement clinker and the physical properties of manufactured cement. The obtained melamine type copolymer was applied to the grinding process of cement clinker. And it's grinding efficiency and compressive strength were compared with DEG(diethylene glycol) and TIPA(triisopropanol amine). When it comes to the grinding efficiency, by lowering surface energy with stable adsorption from organic polymer to cement particles, the fineness showed 4-6% up. In the meantime, the compression strength hiked 30% from its initial strength compared to the conventional DEG. At the age of 28days, the strength showed approximately 13% improvement. Therefore, it is confirmed that the overall quality has been elevated in comparison with the conventional one.
