Abstract

A phosphate-based cement composition comprising: a source of low purity metal oxide, a phosphate component, optionally, a retarder, sufficient amount of water and, optionally, calcium oxide containing material having substantially high amount of amorphous glass content and methods to make such.

Description

MAGNESIUM PHOSPHATE BASED CEMENT, MORTAR AND CONCRETE COMPOSITIONS
WITH INCREASED WORKING TIME
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is directed. to a fast setting cement, more specifically a phosphate-based cement using a source of low purity metal oxide, a phosphate component, a retarder, sufficient water and, optionally, calcium oxide containing material, having substantially high amount of amorphous glass content.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Known phosphate cements that have been discovered, including the one that was done by Argonne National Laboratories, pioneers in phosphate cements have been significantly (ten times) expensive compared to conventional cements and do not possess the required working time for large volume placement.
This is due to the fact that these compositions Use as much as 30-45% of mono potassium phosphate content which is very expensive ($1900/ ton). and a very high purity metal oxide (more than 95% purity). to the tune of 10-15%. Hence the traditional phosphate cements have always been limited to the application of concrete road repair where the volume is less and more working time is not required.
To extend the.. working time of the phosphate cements would mean that it would allow one to use these type of cements- for larger area applications like underlayment or overlayment of concrete floorings or for normal construction of buildings itself. This concept was attempted numerous times by different groups by adopting different techniques like usage of retarders like borax or using metal oxides calcined at higher temperatures. However, all of these techniques failed to give a desired working time because the resulting cement set very fast which made them impractical to be used for large area applications.
US patent No. 6,136,088 discloses ahigh early strength binder based on phosphate cement utilizing a maximum binder level of 58%, which avoids the evolution of ammonia gas in its preparation by reacting mono ammonium phosphate with potassium carbonate and a process for preparing a .cementitious binder useful in a quick setting mortar, whose utilityincludes a repair material for cementitious structures. The binding system is based on the formation of potassium struvite, by reacting a source of high purity magnesium oxide with potassium phosphate and water. Although still quick setting, the set time of this binder is slower than the set time of struvite.
US patent No. 7,001,860 discloses an inexpensive construction material, adapted for use in warm weather climates where styrofoam or other synthetic organic resin foams are used as construction materials and require a coating of a hard, dense material for a surface finish and a method to coat styrofoam structures with a material which cures or sets at room temperature and is easy to apply in the field.

US patent No. 7,204,880 discloses a cement formula utilizing the metal oxide along with mono potassium phosphate and mono ammonium phosphate but uses a very small amount of it because of the use of high purity metal oxide. lithe percentage of mono ammonium phosphate is increased the final cement sets faster making rendering it impractical for large area applications.
As seen from the above, some of the drawbacks of cements of the prior art include quick setting and less working time. llenee used for limited applications like road patching;
high cost (due to the use of high quantities of expensive low solubility acid phosphates); and the sensitivity, to increase in water/cement ratio.
In light of the prior art, there exists a need for a low cost phosphate-based cement composition with high mechanical properties and the present .invention relates to the method of producing a structural material with an improved workability to be used in the infrastructure development.
After years of experimentation the inventors have found that the failure wasattributed to the purity of magnesium oxide used.
It was unexpectedly and surprisingly found that by lowering the purity of metal oxides by adding other compounds like silicate or aluminate, the loading of metal oxides can be increased and the loading of phosphates can be decreased thereby reducing the cost of the final binder and extend the working time of the cement so that it can be used for many other applications other than road repair. By replacing metal oxides with metal silicates it is possible to extend the working time and replace expensive a portion or all of the mono potassium phosphate with a cheaper phosphate source such as mono ammonium phosphate. Thereby reducing the cost and achieving a greater working time to be able to be used for wider applications as compared to the disclosed prior art.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a method of producing fast setting phosphate-based cement, using a .source of low purity metal oxide, a phosphate component, a retarder, a sufficient quantity of water and optionally, a source of calcium oxide containing material having a substantially high amount of amorphous glass content.
According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the phosphate cement comprising a source of low purity metal oxides can also overcome the working time -issue by using low purity metal oxides in combination with retarders such as an alkali metal stannate or an alkali metal fluoride. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the water resistance is improved by the use of amorphous calcium oxide containing material. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the use of
2 a high amount of tow cost high solubility phosphate provides for a cost effective cement composition.
According to a preferred embodiment; the mechanical properties of the cement are improved by the use of calcium oxide containing .fillers having amorphous glass content.
According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the novel cement with good strength coupled with improved flowability and increased working time and mechanical properties is produced by mixing the right proportions of metal oxide or a source of low purity metal oxide, an industrial waste containing a source of silica which can include fly ash, steel slag, ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS), and a phosphate component, and a retarder with sufficient water. The resulting cement does not involve clinkering. More particularly, a preferred embodiment of the present invention is directed to overcoming the problem of poor water resistance, increased cost and lack of working time of traditional phosphate cements which has been the main hindrance to the widespread use of such cements.
The setting time of the final cement depends upon the amount of metal cations released from the metal oxide to be able to react with phosphate anions when water is added to the cement. If the amount of metal cations released is higher in a given period of time then the cements sets faster. If the release of the cations can be controlled, the setting can be controlled. .One of the ways to do it is by increasing the calcination temperature of metal oxides or the having other compounds along with the metal oxides which will lower the amount of metal oxide getting released. Examples of such compounds are silicates and aluminates, which can be represented as IVIgSiO3 and .MgA1204. As far as the chemical composition of the metal oxide is concerned it is preferred to have a non stoichiometric metal oxide silicates or aluminates in order to obtain better results. The non stoichiometric metal oxide silicates can be represented as MgO,Si02 0-20 and the metal oxide aluminate can be represented as MgO,Al2030,0.
Reactivity of magnesium oxide depends on its morphology and its chemical composition. Highly crystalline oxide is also the least soluble in the phosphate solution (the crystals are called periclase) and it is achieved by increasing the temperature of calcination. Due to the low solubility of these crystals, the mixing and application time of the resulting cement is expected to be longer than that without this crystal morphology. Using this lower purity (thus, less reactive) magnesium oxide or magnesium silicate, it may be then possible to reduce the content of the phosphate by increasing the content of this magnesium oxide. By reducing the content of the phosphate in the total binder the cost of the cement is consequently reduced as the former is a high cost component in the binder. The binder here is referred as the combination of metal oxide or metal silicate, metal aluminate and the phosphate component. The cement forming reaction between 100%
magnesium oxide and mono potassium phosphate can be expressed as:
3 MgO + KI-12PO4 + 5H20 Mgl(PO4.6H20 -------------------- = (I) Based on the, above cement forming equation (1), the molecular weight ratio of metal oxide:
phosphate would ideally have to be 40 grams: 136 grams (I 3.2). This ratio not only makes the price of the binder high but also results in a quick setting composition. In an effort to reduce the price of the binder, a slight increase (of as little as 10%) in the high purity metal oxide, weight releases more cations in the mix which renders the cement fast setting, hence unsuitable for certain practical applications.
The cement forming reaction when using a low purity metal oxide with silicate may be written as:
Mg0xSi02 0,0 + + 51120 -->MgO,Si02 (1.õ) KPO4.61420 (2).
- Magnesium potassium phosphate, the final product formed due to the chemical reaction between magnesium oxide and mono potassium phosphate has a solubility product constant of 24X. I tr" and gets converted into Mg3(PO4)2 when immersed in water for a prolonged period of time accompanied by a drop in the mechanical properties making. it unusable in areas where prolonged water immersion is expected. It was found after an extensive period of testing with various fillers along with binder (magnesium silicate +
phosphate component) that by having a suitable magnesium oxide/silicate:
phosphate component ratio, the water resistance of these phosphate cements are greatly increased.
