Abstract

To study the effect of surface crosslinked layer on the crosslinked poly(sodium acrylate) (cPSA) absorbent, we synthesized several surface crosslinked cPSAs with 5, 10 and 20 g of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) by an inverse emulsion polymerization method to delay the absorption of excess water in concrete. We measured the compressive and flexural strength of mortars having 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 wt% cPSA-EGDMA. We observed the increase of compressive and flexural strength of the cPSA-EGDMA added cement mortars except for the 0.5 wt% cPSA-EGDMA (20 g) added cement mortar. 1.0 wt% cPSA-EGDMA (5 g) added cement mortar showed about 16% and 10% increased compressive and flexural strength than those of plain cement mortar. To study the effect of porosity on compressive and flexural strength, we used FE-SEM and porosimeter. FE-SEM analysis showed swollen cPSMAEGDMA (5 g) filled between calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) crystals. We observed the decreased porosity of the cPSA-EGDMA added cement mortars than that of plain cement mortar. 1.0 wt% cPSA-EGDMA (5 g) cement mortar showed the lowest porosity of 16.5%.

콘크리트 제조 시 사용되는 잉여수를 지연 흡수시키기 위하여 역유화중합법으로 중합된 가교 poly(sodium acrylate)(cPSA)를 ethylene glycol dimethacrylate(EGDMA) 5, 10 및 20 g을 사용하여 표면 가교시켰다. 표면 가교제 첨가량이 다른 cPSA-EGDMA를 시멘트 질량의 0.5, 1.0 및 1.5 wt% 각각 첨가하여 모르타르의 압축 및 휨강도를 측정하였다. 그 결과 cPSA-EGDMA(20 g)을 0.5 wt% 첨가한 모르타르의 압축강도는 무첨가 시멘트에 비하여 낮게 나타났으나 다른 cPSA-EGDMA 첨가 모르타르는 높게 나타났다. 그 중 특히 cPSA-EGDMA(5 g)을 1.0 wt% 첨가한 모르타르는 무첨가 모르타르의 압축강도(26.8 MPa)와 휨강도(2.52 MPa)와 비교하면 압축강도는 약 16%, 휨강도는 약 10% 증가로 가장 높게 나타났다. 그리고 공극률이 압축강도와 휨강도에 미치는 영향을 측정하기 위하여, 이들 모르타르의 FE-SEM 분석 및 porosity를 측정하였다. FE-EM 분석결과 팽윤된 cPSA-EGDMA(5 g)이 칼슘 실리케이트 수화물(C-S-H) 결정들 사이를 채우고 있는 것으로 확인되었다. cPSA-EGDMA를 첨가한 모르타르의 porosity 측정결과 무첨가 시멘트 모르타르에 비하여 모두 낮아진 가운데, 특히 cPSA-EGDMA(5 g) 1.0 wt% 첨가한 모르타르는 무첨가 시멘트 모르타르(20.1%)보다 porosity가 16.5%로 가장 낮게 나타났다.
