Abstract:A weakly acidic cleaning agent suitable for cleaning rust spots on concrete surfaces was prepared by selecting sur-factants sodium linear alkyl sulfonate(LAS),fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether(AEO-9),hydroxyethylidene diphosphonic acid,citric acid as complexing agents,and D-gluconate sodium as pH buffering agent.Through single factor and orthogonal experiments,the op-timal formula for the cleaning agent was determined to be 5%citric acid(all in mass fractions)+4%HEDP+3%LAS+3%AEO-9,and the pH value was adjusted to 6 using sodium D-gluconate.And compared with a quality fraction of 9%oxalic acid and 0.1 mol/L hydrochloric acid solution,the cleaning effect and its impact on concrete performance were tested.The results showed that under the condition of(35±2)℃and 30 minutes of cleaning,the cleaning agent prepared in this article had a cleaning rate of 81.7%for rust spots,which was similar to oxalic acid cleaning agent.The compressive corrosion resistance coefficient of concrete after soaking was 0.912,which was better than 9%oxalic acid and 0.1 mol/L hydrochloric acid cleaning agent.
