The invention discloses a preparation method of an ester type 
viscosity reduction type polycarboxylate 
superplasticizer. The method comprises the following steps: (1) preparing an esterified 
monomer; (2) conducting the copolymerization reaction; (3) conducting the 
neutralization reaction. According to the technical scheme of the preparation method, 
methyl methacrylate and dimethylaminoethanol, remaining after the preparation of the esterified 
monomer, are subjected to ester exchange in the same condition of preparing the esterified 
monomer so as to obtain dimethylaminoethyl 
methacrylate as a 
functional monomer. Therefore, the preparation method is cost-saving and simple in operation. In addition, the 
functional monomer is directly introduced into the copolymerization reaction to react with other cationic monomers. During the 
polymerization process, anions, cations and 
tertiary amine groups are attached to polycarboxylic acid molecular chains, so that the surface adsorbability of 
cement particles can be improved. The electrostatic repulsion effect between 
cement particles is improved. Not only the ester type 
viscosity reduction type polycarboxylate 
superplasticizer is good in anti-
sludge effect for sand and gravel materials high in 
cement content, but also the ester type 
viscosity reduction type polycarboxylate 
superplasticizer is good in dispersibility and viscosity-reducing effect.
