Abstract

The present invention provides a composition and method for controlling air voids in aqueous systems such as paints, coatings, sealants, adhesives, mastics, cements, mortar, masonry, or concrete, which comprises the reaction product of an oxidizing agent and a compound comprising at least one polyalkoxylated polyalkylene polyamine, at least one polyalkyoxylated polyethyleneimine, or a mixture thereof.

First claim

It is claimed:

1. A composition for modifying air in a cementitious composition, comprising:
the reaction product of at least one oxidizing agent and a compound comprising at least one polyalkoxylated polyalkylene polyamine represented by structural formula A

wherein
n represents an integer of 0 to 4;
R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , and R 7 each individually represents a hydrogen, C 1 -C 6 alkyl group, —CH 2 —OH group, or -(AO) x -R 8 group, and wherein at least two of the -R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , and R 7 represent an -(AO) x -R 8 group, provided that when n=0 then at least two of R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 6 , and R 7 represent -(AO) x - R 8 ;
wherein AO represents an alkylene oxide group chosen from ethylene oxide, propylene oxide butylene oxide, or a mixture thereof;
wherein the relative molar amount of ethylene oxide compared to other alkylene oxide groups within AO is zero percent to less than fifty percent of the total;
wherein the total sum of the number of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide groups exceeds 25;
wherein x represents an integer of 26 to 100;
wherein R 8 represents hydrogen or a C 1 -C 6 alkyl group; and
wherein the reaction product of the at least one oxidizing agent and the compound comprising the at least one polyalkoxylated polyalkylene polyamine represented by structural Formula A is effective for modifying air within the cementitious composition and is devoid of a linear or branched alkyl group having greater than six carbon atoms which would function to entrain air within the cementitious composition.

2. The composition of claim 1 wherein the reaction product of the at least one oxidizing agent and the compound comprising the at least one polyalkoxylated polyalkylene polyamine is derived from polyalkoxylated product of ethylene diamine, diethylene triamine, triethylene tetramine, tetraethylene pentamine, pentaethylene hexamine, propylene diamine, dipropylene triamine, tripropylene tetramine, tetrapropylene pentamine, pentapropylene hexamine, N,N-dimethylethylene diamine, N,N′-dimethylethylene diamine, N,N-dimethylpropylene diamine, N,N′-dimethylpropylene diamine, N,N-diethylethylene diamine, N,N′-diethylethylene diamine, N,N-diethylpropylene diamine, N,N′-diethylpropylene diamine, or a mixture thereof.

8. The composition of claim 1 further comprising a trialkanolamine, a lignosulfonate, a sulfonated naphthalene formaldehyde condensate, a sulfonated melamine formaldehyde condensate, an oxyalkylene-containing superplasticizer, an oxyalkylene-containing shrinkage reducing agent, or a mixture thereof.

9. A composition comprising a hydratable cementitious binder and the composition of claim 1 .

10. The composition of claim 1 further comprising an oxyalkylene-containing superplasticizer, an oxyalkylene-containing shrinkage reducing agent, or a mixture thereof.

11. The composition of claim 1 further comprising an oxyalkylene-containing superplasticizer.

12. The composition of claim 1 further comprising a set accelerator, a set retarder, or a mixture thereof.

13. The composition of claim 10 further comprising a set accelerator, a set retarder, or a mixture thereof.

14. The composition of claim 1 wherein ethylene oxide groups are present in the amount of 0% to 40% based on the total weight of polyethers in the polyalkoxylated polyalkylene polyamine.

15. The composition of claim 1 wherein 10 molar percent to 100 molar percent of amine groups of the polyalkoxylated polyalkylene polyamine is oxidized into amine oxide groups.
