[0002] At present, various super high-rise and large-span building projects are increasing, and building projects are developing towards large-scale. Water-reducing agents are necessary water-reducing agents for high-performance concrete and affect the overall stability of the concrete. However, due to the relatively unstable quality of coarse and fine aggregates used in the preparation of concrete in China, especially the high and unstable powder content of the crushed stone and machine-made sand, and the use of cementitious materials and auxiliary cementitious materials, the adsorption of water-reducing agents will easily cause the water-reducing rate of water-reducing agents to decrease, affect the realization of the water-reducing function of water-reducing agents, and further affect the comprehensive performance of the concrete. However, at present, the adsorption amount of water-reducing agents is generally tested by the methylene blue adsorption test method in the national standard, which characterizes the adsorption amount of cementitious materials on water-reducing agents by testing the adsorption amount of methylene blue on water-reducing agents. The effect corresponding to the actual construction result is not significant, that is, the accuracy of the test result of the test method is insufficient. SUMMARY
