DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to construction materials and more particularly to high-mobility mixtures capable of a solution spontaneously spread over the surface and equalize local irregularities, and intended primarily for the production of screeds and floor coverings as well and can be used for the masonry fixing tiles, production of decorative coatings.

Known self-leveling mortar containing gypsum binder, filler, sulfate-yeast mash as a modifying agent and water [1].

The disadvantages of this mixture are the high costs, poor durability, distension during solidification, the complexity of use in connection with the fact that it quickly loses fluidity and self-leveling properties (10-15 min), the impossibility of simultaneous floor devices over a large area.

Known and leveling mortar containing Portland cement as a binder, filler, excipient, stabilizing and modifying additives (lignosulphonates) and water [2].

The disadvantages of it are the high cost, lack of strength, water-holding capacity and durability (ie, fast abrasion) obtained building structures, and therefore they require additional protective coating.

Known and self-leveling mortar containing magnesia cement as a binder, filler and glass fiber [3].

The disadvantage of this mortar is a narrow range of applications as a self-leveling mix due to the presence in its composition of the filler, the specific surface of which can be indefinitely large, rapid abrasion and brittleness of the products obtained, which prevents fabrication of thin coatings, but also due to the established therein relationships ingredients, does not allow to implement the necessary mobility of the mixture and the optimal duration of the self-regulation process and the complexity of the production process of manufacturing multilayer building constructions using soundproofing devices.

The object of the invention to provide an inexpensive and simple to manufacture self-leveling mortar having optimal performance and aesthetic properties and self-leveling and extending the arsenal of compounds.

The technical result that provides a solution to this problem lies in the same time ensuring optimal mobility in the period necessary for the distribution of the mixture on a large area, high water-holding capacity and low peelability, high bond strength to concrete, simplifying and speeding up the application process and subsequent hardening, dimensional stability, dustless obtained articles having high impact resistance and abradability, expansion of the raw materials used, with minimal or no use of the most expensive components of the polymer.

The invention consists in that the leveling mortar contains particulate filler, at least one stabilizing and water-retaining additive prevents delamination mixture, an inert filler with a specific surface of 500 - 5000 cm 2 / g, and magnesia cement (as a binder) which includes a component containing active magnesium oxide and a salt component comprising at least one salt of a strong acid and a metal with a valence of two to three, at the following ratio amounts of these components:



where A - weight component comprising an active magnesium oxide (MgO);

C - weight of the salt component;

n - the number of components (salt) comprising the salt component;

m i - mass fraction of one of the salts in the component;

M i - the molecular weight of the salt (in dimensionless units), defined as the sum of the atomic weights of the elements included in the chemical formula of salt, according to the periodic table of elements (periodic table);

K 1 = 200-350 (proportionality factor);

K 2 - mass fraction of active magnesium oxide component comprising an active magnesium oxide,

and the following ratio of amounts of filler and filler component comprising an active magnesium oxide:

H i M 3 (0,85-1,85K 3) -A, (2)

where H - the weight of a filler;

K 3 - mass fraction of dust particles in the aggregate;

M 3 - weight of aggregate,

the content of the water-retaining and stabilizing additives in the mixture is 0,025-5 wt%.

Mass fraction of substance in the component (as well as the mass fraction of dust particles in the aggregate) shows what part of the mass of the substance by weight of component, if the latter is taken as a unit, and is a dimensionless quantity, weight has a corresponding dimension - ton, kilogram, and so on. d.

As the filler mixture may contain limestone, dolomite, granite or quartz sand or sand from slags, preferably of size not more than 0.5 mm.

The filler may comprise a mixture of quartz powder and / or limestone, and as a component containing an active magnesium oxide, - caustic magnesite with a mass fraction of active magnesium oxide, from 0.75 to 0.95.

As component comprising an active magnesium oxide, and the mixture may contain caustic dolomite with a mass fraction of active magnesium oxide, from 0.15 to 0.21.

The mixture may contain salt component in solid crystalline form with at least one of the following salts of strong acids and two or trivalent metal: magnesium chloride MgCl 2, ferric chloride FeCl 3, magnesium sulfate MgSO 4.

For strong acids are acids which are completely dissociated in aqueous solutions. In this case, the component contains, as salts of strong acid salts of hydrochloric and / or sulfuric acid, bivalent metal magnesium and / or ferric metal.

The mixture may contain salt component in the form of an aqueous solution density of 1.1 - 1.35 kg / l of at least one of the following salts: magnesium chloride, ferric chloride, magnesium sulphate.

The mixture may further contain a pigment in an amount of 0.5 - 3 wt% and as water-retaining and stabilizing additives - at least one of the following additives:. Methylcellulose, polyoxyethylene, hydrolyzed polyacrylonitrile (in an amount of 0.02 - 0.5 wt%. ), bentonite clay (0.5 - 5 wt%), sulfonated naftalinoformaldegidnuyu resin (0.01 - 0.3 wt%), and in addition, as modifiers - at least one of the following additives:.. sodium salt sulfonated melamine-formaldehyde resin (0.1 -. 1%), gypsum (0,2 -. 5%), polymer dispersion (PVA) - PVA (up to 3 wt.%), antifoam (0.05 - 0.3 wt.%), phosphoric acid and its salts, and as components containing active amorphous silica (3 wt.% based on active amorphous silica SiO 2).

When implementing these (generic for a wide range of starting materials), the content ratios of components is provided to obtain the desired technical result, the nature of molecular interaction salt (s), the magnesium oxide and other ingredients, and required concentration of dust particles in the solution at a predetermined surface area.

Said filler with a specific surface area contributes to the stabilization and plasticizing ordered mixture. In the case of caustic dolomite amount of filler should be minimized, since dolomite limestone contains partially replacing filler.

Stabilizing and water-retaining additive prevents delamination solution, and the loss of water from the solution in the concrete base. Peelability mortars produced according to the present invention does not exceed 10% and the water retention capacity of 90-93%, which is not achieved in the prior art mixtures. Application naftalinoformaldegidnoy sulfonated resin used in contrast to the known mixtures as stabilizing additives leads to a small air entrapment in the mixture, which increases the stability of the solution and reduces shrink stresses.

Use of components comprising an active amorphous silica (TPP entrainment zone, metallurgical slag, ground), and phosphoric acid and its salts, and enhances the water resistance of the articles of the mixture.

The use of gypsum as a builder in the mixture additionally provides increased ductility and toughness of the solidified material. Can primenyatmsya like anhydrite (CaSO 4) and semi-aquatic (CaSO 4× 0,5H 2 O) and dihydrate (CaSO 4× 2H 2 O) gypsum.

The pigments (ocher, ocher, chalk, blue, etc.) attach decorative products obtained.

Introduction PVA type polymer dispersions material serves to impart special properties (increased adhesion to smooth surfaces, water resistance, water-repellent (hydrophobic) properties.

The rate of the mobility solution, estimated by using a face breaking Suttarda viscometer, of not less than 23 cm.

The dry mixture comprising salt components in crystalline form, such as MgCl 2 (0-6) H 2 O, is supplied to produce the finished solution in packages (bags or packages), containing all the ingredients. A mixture containing the salt component in the form of an aqueous solution similarly supplied with a separate container for that component.

Self-leveling mortar is prepared as follows.

Based on the desired properties and another batch of a mixture of nomenclature available starting materials selected value of the proportionality factor K 1 and determined by said relationships (1), (2) the required quantities of ingredients.

If the amount of the filler is not specified, it is usually, calculation is conducted on 1000 kg of dry blend components, ie:

1000 = A + H + M 3 (3)

Calculated amounts of the ingredients for the next batch of the solution was charged into a special container with adding appropriate amount of water and thoroughly mixed to obtain a homogeneous mass. Mass fraction of the salt solution component in the mixture is usually not less than 0.25, a water content - not more than 22% pure magnesium chloride - less than 4% (see examples.).

Dosage ingredients can be cyclically or continuously. Dosing error shall not exceed for cementitious materials, water and additives 1% to 2% of aggregate.

The result is ready-to-use solution.

From each batch of the solution composition is taken 4 - 6 spot samples, which are combined in the overall sample, the weight of which should be sufficient for the determination of the monitored parameters.

The prepared solution should be used within one hour as it subsequently falls sharply mobility.

Test samples should be taken to begin the period of conservation normalized mobility.

Production of the floor or other structures produced by pouring the solution on the surface of the suitably prepared, with the open filling valve without anticorrosion coating is allowed.

Self-leveling mortar occurs spontaneously under the influence of gravitational forces.

In the presence of large defects (cracks, bumps, etc.), we recommend a quick stripping solution on the surface of the comb squeegee, leaving little fast leveling "scallops".

During the first day it reached 30 - 50% of the strength of the structure, which allows to move freely on the surface. Fully normalized strength and quality indicators of the hardened solution is achieved after 28 days. Thus the adhesion strength with the concrete may exceed the tensile strength of the concrete.
