With the development of concrete technology, the requirements for polycarboxylate superplasticizers are more refined, not limited to the basic performance advantages such as water reduction rate and moisture retention. Since the polymerization of polycarboxylate superplasticizer is designable, polycarboxylate water reducing agent with special functions can be prepared according to specific engineering requirements, such as slow release type, early strength type, anti-shrinkage type and low bleed type. , low viscosity type, etc. The main steric hindrance group of the polycarboxylate superplasticizer is the longer polyoxyethylene side chain. The nature of the water-soluble nonionic polyoxyethylene soft segment allows its conformation in aqueous solution to vary. The conformational state of the side chain has a great influence on the water reducing agent.

Concrete additive is an admixture added during concrete mixing. It is mainly used to improve the performance of concrete. From the point of addition ratio of admixture, it is generally not more than 5%. Although it contains a small amount, it has played an active role in improving the performance of concrete and has become an indispensable part of the current development of concrete. The additives used in concrete mainly refer to different types of water reducing agents. The extensive promotion of concrete admixtures has led to significant improvements in the strength of the concrete, its brittleness and its own weight, and has improved the applicability of concrete construction. For example, adding antifreeze to concrete can make concrete construction work in the cold winter. The use of superplasticizers enables the renewal of concrete placement and flow regimes.

Triethanolamine is an important fine chemical product and a commonly used raw material for cement grinding aids and concrete admixture manufacturers. Triethanolamine (TEA) can form a water-soluble chelate with cations in cement hydration system, and forms many melting points on the surface of cement particles, which increases the dissolution rate of C3A and C4AF, resulting in faster reaction with gypsum. The increased amount of calcium sulphoaluminate is beneficial for coagulation and compaction, thereby increasing early strength. At the same time, due to the formation of unstable complexes in the hydration process of cement, the degree of supersaturation of Ca(OH)2 is increased, which can effectively prevent the formation of loose crystalline products in the early stage of C3A hydration, thereby improving the compactness of cement stone and strength.
