Alkali-activated aluminosilicate binder containing glass beads
View Patent ↗The invention relates to a mixture containing an alkali-activated aluminosilicate binder, said mixture, after hardening, containing at least 25% by weight of glass beads, based on the total mass. The hardened product has a surface which has very little tendency to soil and is easy to clean. A process for the preparation of the mixture according to the invention and the use thereof as joint filler are disclosed.
1. Mixture containing an alkali-activated aluminosilicate binder, wherein after hardening, the mixture contains at least 25% by weight of solid glass beads, based on the total mass, wherein the glass beads have a diameter between 0.01 and 5 mm.
2. Mixture according to claim 1 , wherein an alkaline activator is at least one compound from the series consisting of sodium waterglass, potassium waterglass, lithium waterglass, ammonium waterglass, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, alkali metal sulphates, sodium metasilicate and potassium metasilicate.
3. Mixture according to claim 1 , wherein at least one aluminosilicate from the series consisting of the natural aluminosilicates and/or synthetic aluminosilicates is present.
4. Mixture according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio of silicon atoms to aluminium atoms is between 30:1 and 1:1.
5. Mixture according to claim 1 , wherein the mixture additionally contains at least one filler, plastic, additive and/or pigment component.
6. Mixture according to claim 1 , wherein the mixture contains plasticizers and/or superplasticizers in amounts of 0.1 to 3% by weight for reducing the water/binder ratio.
7. Mixture according to claim 1 , wherein the mixture comprises a one component system.
8. Mixture according to claim 1 , comprising joint filler, joint mortar, screed, coating, render, paint, road marking or anti-graffiti coating.
9. Mixture according to claim 1 , wherein the glass beads have a diameter between 0.1 and 1 mm.
10. Process for the preparation of a mixture according to claim 1 , comprising homogeneously mixing at least one aluminosilicate, at least one alkaline activator, water and glass beads and optionally further components with one another.
11. Hardened product obtained by the process according to claim 10 .
12. Hardened product according to claim 11 , wherein the hardened product is a joint filler.
13. A process for reducing the tendency of a joint produced from joint mortar to soil, comprising mixing glass beads in the joint mortar which joint mortar comprises an alkali-activated aluminosilicate binder.
