The invention belongs to the technical field of
building material preparation, and particularly relates to a polycarboxylic acid
polymer, a preparation method and application thereof. The method comprises the following steps: (1) adding a
polymerization inhibitor and part of unsaturated
carboxylic acid into molten unsaturated polyether to form a
mixed solution A; (2) preparing a
mixed solution B from an esterification
monomer and the residual unsaturated
carboxylic acid; and (3) adding the
mixed solution B into the mixed solution A, and performing
bulk polymerization under the action of an initiator to obtain a polycarboxylic acid
polymer, wherein in the step (3),
inert gas is introduced in the early stage of the reaction,
oxygen is introduced in the middle stage of the reaction, and
inert gas is introduced in the later stage of the reaction. According to the invention, when the method is used for preparing the polycarboxylic acid
polymer, the
viscosity of a
reaction system can be well controlled, the
reaction rate is improved, the whole reaction process is stable, the molecular weight of the obtained polymer is narrow, and the effective content is increased; and the polycarboxylic acid polymer is used as a
cement grinding aid, so that the
grinding aid has good
grinding aiding effect, water-reducing rate and early strength performance, and a
solvent does not need to be added in the use process.
