Polycarboxylate is a synthetic organic polymer composed of long chains and carboxylate side groups. These functional groups have a strong affinity for the calcium ions present in the cement slurry, forming a protective layer around the cement particles. This mechanism can prevent clumping and allow cement particles to disperse better in water, thereby improving the.. read more →
Polycarboxylic acid water reducing agent is a commonly used concrete additive, which can effectively reduce the amount of cement in concrete, improve the fluidity of concrete and reduce the shrinkage of concrete. However, the use of polycarboxylic acid water reducing agent also needs to pay attention to some problems. The following is a detailed introduction to.. read more →
Compared to aerated concrete block walls, lightweight foam partition walls offer lower overall construction costs. Currently, the unit price of lightweight partition walls (excluding plastering) is approximately 23% lower than that of aerated concrete block walls (including plastering), significantly reducing total construction costs. Foam lightweight concrete partition wall panels align more closely with green building.. read more →
