The invention relates to the technical field of water reducers, and in particular to a method for preparing a
biomass-based
water reducer. The raw materials include 20-40 parts of cassava
starch, 40-60 parts of
bagasse, 8-12 parts of
ammonium acrylate, 5-10 parts of methyl
allyl alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, 1-2 parts of
ammonium persulfate, 6-9 parts of an oxidant, 3-5 parts of a sulfonating agent, and 3-5 parts of a
preservative. The cassava
starch and
bagasse are thermally decomposed with
anhydrous ethanol, separated and washed to obtain an organic phase and a
solid mixture, the organic phase is sulfonated,
hydrogen atoms in the
solid mixture are electrophilically substituted by
sulfonic acid groups, and active OH in a
benzene ring is easily grafted under an initiator to form a
water reducer. The method reduces the consumption of
organic matter in the
water reducer by bacterial rate, ensures the long-term use of the water
reducer, and has a good water reducing effect. The water
reducer adsorbs more
cement particle surfaces, the steric hindrance effect is enhanced, the amount of water
reducer entering concrete or
cement particle gaps is reduced, invalid adsorption is reduced, the dispersed flow between particles is promoted, and the
cement fluidity is increased.
