Abstract

Due to the depletion of natural aggregate resources, the use of recycled aggregates became an urgent issue. Microcracks generated during production of recycled aggregate and cement paste attached to the surface of aggregate have been the biggest obstacles to promote the use of recycled aggregate. To alleviate such problem, this study attempted the spray and immersion treatment of recycled fine aggregate using mono-ammonium phosphate solution, which is known to be effective for reducing the pH of recycled aggregate. The changes in physical properties before and after treatment were observed, and the compressive strength of mortar specimen was evaluated. According to the experimental results, the absorption capacity of the recycled fine aggregate increased with reduction in pH after mono-ammunium phosphate treatment. Calcium hydroxide and ettringite was removed, and skeletal density of recycled fine aggregate increased due to the formation of hydroxyapatite. Despite the increase in absorption capacity, the compressive strength of the mortar increased and it seems to be associated with the increase in adhesion strength at the interface between cement paste and recycled fine aggregate. When the concentration of ammonium monophosphate aqueous solution was excessive (immersion: 15% and 20%, spraying 20%), the compressive strength of the mortar decreased, which seemed to be related to the increase in the absorption capacity caused by the the excessive dissolution of the hydration products such as portlandite and ettringite.

최근 천연골재의 고갈로 순환골재의 재활용 확대가 절실한 상황에 도달하였다. 순환골재 생산 공정에서 발생된 미세균열 및 표면에 부착된 시멘트 페이스트는 순환골재 재활용의 가장 큰 걸림돌로 작용해 왔는데, 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해, 순환골재의 pH 저감에 효과적으로 알려진 일인산 암모늄 수용액을 활용하였다. 다양한 농도의 일인산 암모늄 수용액을 활용하여 순환잔골재의 분사 및 침지처리를 실시하였고, 처리 전 후의 물성 변화를 관찰하였으며, 최종적으로 모르타르 시험체를 제작하여 압축강도를 평가하였다. 실험 결과에 따르면, 일인산 암모늄 수용액 분사 및 침지처리를 하는 경우 순환잔골재의 흡수율은 증가하고 pH는 감소하였다. 내부의 공극 및 균열에 존재하는 수산화칼슘 및 에트링가이트는 용출되었으며, 수산화인회석의 생성으로 인해 진밀도가 상승하였다. 흡수율의 증가에도 불구하고, 모르타르 시편의 압축강도 또한 증가하였는데, 이는 분사 및 침지처리과정에서 용출된 수산화칼슘 및 에트링가이트의 제거와 순환잔골재 표면에 존재하는 미세분말의 세척으로 인한 부착강도의 증가가 주요한 원인으로 파악되었다. 일인산 암모늄 수용액의 농도가 과다한 경우(침지: 15 % 이상, 분사 20 % 이상), 모르타르의 압축강도는 저하하는 현상을 보였는데, 이는 수화생성물의 과도한 용출에 의해 증가한 흡수율과 관련된 것으로 판단된다.
