Increasing Sedimentation Stability of Cement-Mineral Suspensions by Adding the Hydroxyl-Containing Water-Soluble Polymers

Abstract:

There are the results of studies on increasing the sedimentation stability of cement-mineral suspensions intended to fill hollow spaces in fractured rocky soils and strengthen dispersed soils, as well as to prevent filtration processes in soils.To ensure the sedimentation stability of cement-mineral suspensions, it is proposed to use the water solutions of hydroxyl-containing polymers prone to swelling as a dispersion medium (mixing water): water solutions of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) in 4% - 8% concentration. The concentration range of polymer solution from 4% to 8% was established in order to prevent coagulation during storage and to ensure the production of polymer films from water PVA solutions.The research results showed that polyvinyl alcohol provides the high kinetic sedimentation stability of cement-mineral systems determined by hydrodynamic factors as follows: the viscosity and density of the water polymer solution. The higher the viscosity and density of the water solution of polyvinyl alcohol (concentration), the higher the sedimentation stability of cement-mineral suspensions.
