The Retarding Effect of Polycarboxylic Acid Water-Reducing Agents on Concrete

Polycarboxylic Acid Water-Reducing Agents and Concrete Polycarboxylic acid water-reducing agents are surfactants with molecular structures containing two distinct functional groups: hydrophilic groups and hydrophobic groups. Under normal conditions, polycarboxylic acid water-reducing agents reduce interparticle forces by adsorbing onto the surfaces of cement particles, thereby increasing the flowability of concrete. However, another important function of polycarboxylic … Continue reading
