Resumen
En el presente trabajo se evalúa el comportamiento reológico y de la cinética de
hidratación, de las pastas de cemento con los aditivos MEF-32 y SX-32 y sus mezclas.
Con el objetivo de seleccionar la mezcla de mejor desempeño se utilizó el ensayo del
minicono como prueba fundamental. A la mezcla seleccionada y los aditivos de
manera independiente se le realizaron las pruebas reológicas: determinación del por
ciento de reducción de agua, pérdida de plasticidad en el tiempo (ambas por el método
del minicono) e influencia sobre la viscosidad de las pastas en el Viscoklick 600.
Además se utilizó la técnica de Calorimetría Isotérmica para determinar la influencia de
estos productos y la mezcla seleccionada sobre la cinética de hidratación del cemento
Portland ordinario P-35 (CPO).Como resultado se obtuvo que la mezcla con mejor
índice de plasticidad (I.P) fue MEF-32 (3.5 %) y SX-32 (0.5 %), observándose un
efecto sinérgico positivo en cuanto al mismo. También esta produce reducción del
contenido de agua hasta 40 % y pierde su efecto plastificante a las 5 h. Se demuestra
su influencia sobre la viscosidad, donde el orden de mezclado de ambos productos
guarda relación directa sobre esta propiedad. Finalmente, los resultados de la cinética
de hidratación muestran como la mezcla disminuye el calor de hidratación, con efectos
de retardo para la formación de los productos de hidratación e influye sobre las fases
de los hidrosilicatos y aluminatos.
In this thesis the rheological and hydration kinetics behaviors of cement pastes containing the additives MEF-32 and SX-32 and their mixtures are studied. With the aim of selecting the best performing mixture the minicone assay was performed as the main test. The following rheological tests were performed to the mixture as well as to additives independently: determination of the percent of water reduction, loss of plasticity over time (both based on the minicone method) and influence on the viscosity of the mixtures measured in the Viscoklick 600. In addition, the Isotermic Calorimetry technique was employed to determine the inluence of these product s and the selected mixture on the hydration kinetics of the standard Portland P-35 cement. It was found that the mixture with the best Plasticity Index (PI) was the one containing (3.5 %) MEF-32 and (0.5 %) SX-32, with a positive synergic effect over the PI. This mixture also reduces the content of water by 40 % and losts its plastifying effect after 5 hours. Its influence over the viscosity is demonstrated, where the order both prod ucts are mixed is directly related to this property. Finally, the results of the hydration kinetics show that the mixture decreases the hydration heat, with retarding effects on the formation of the hydration products and it has influence on the hydrosilicates and aluminates phases.
