Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of concrete additives technology, and in particular to a concrete retarder and water-reducing agent, its preparation method and application. Background Technology
[0002] Concrete admixtures are commonly used reagents in the concrete preparation process. They are not only added in small amounts, but also improve concrete performance to meet practical needs. Furthermore, they can save cement, reduce energy consumption, and reduce pollutant emissions. Common admixtures include: accelerators, water-reducing agents, air-entraining agents, and retarders.
[0003] Retarder is an admixture that slows down and reduces the exothermic rate of cement hydration, thereby extending the time for concrete to fully set, maintaining the plasticity of fresh concrete for a longer period, facilitating pouring, improving construction efficiency, and without adversely affecting the later properties of the concrete. Therefore, retarders play a crucial role in the concrete industry. Currently, there are many types of retarders on the market, but they can be divided into two main categories according to their chemical composition: inorganic retarders and organic retarders. Inorganic retarders mainly include phosphates, zinc salts, ferric sulfate, copper sulfate, borates, fluorosilicates, etc.; organic retarders include lignin sulfonates, hydroxycarboxylic acids and their salts, polyols and their derivatives, sugars, and carbohydrates, etc. Inorganic retarders ionize and react with cement hydration products, forming a dense, insoluble film on the surface of cement particles, hindering normal cement hydration; organic retarders contain complex-forming groups that, in the alkaline medium of cement hydration, react with free Ca2+. 2+ The formation of unstable complexes leads to an increase in Ca in the liquid phase. 2+ The mass concentration decreases, and at the same time, complex-forming groups may also adsorb O on the surface of cement particles and hydration products. 2- Hydrogen bonds are formed, and the complex forming group associates with water molecules through hydrogen bonds, resulting in a relatively stable solvated water film on the surface of cement particles, thereby inhibiting the cement hydration process.
[0004] Water-reducing agents are concrete admixtures that reduce the amount of water used in mixing while maintaining the slump of the concrete. Most of them are anionic surfactants, such as lignin sulfonates, naphthalene sulfonates, and formaldehyde polymers. When added to concrete mixtures, they disperse cement particles, improve workability, reduce the amount of water used per unit, improve the fluidity of the concrete mixture, or reduce the amount of cement used per unit, thus saving cement.
[0005] In the existing technology, there are not many concrete-based additives that can act as both a retarder and a water-reducing agent. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of concrete-based additive that can act as both a retarder and a water-reducing agent. Summary of the Invention

[0073]
[0074] As can be seen, this disclosure prepares a novel concrete retarder and water-reducing agent. The hydrophilic / charged groups (water-reducing) and coordinating groups (retarders) of compound A are located on different side chains or segments and do not affect each other. The main chain of compound A contains a hydrophobic framework; these anionic groups adsorb onto the surface of cement particles, providing electrostatic repulsion. Simultaneously, the long-chain polyether branches extend into the liquid phase, providing steric hindrance, thus "opening up" the cement particles, disintegrating the flocculated structure, releasing free water, and improving fluidity, achieving the water-reducing effect. Meanwhile, the side chain groups react with Ca in the alkaline slurry. +2 Formation of soluble chelates temporarily reduces the free Ca in the solution. +2 The concentration delays the formation of CH and CSH crystal nuclei, and the hydrophobic segments of the long-chain skeleton can also form a dynamic coating film on the surface of cement particles, further hindering crystal nucleus growth.
[0075] Other embodiments of this disclosure will readily occur to those skilled in the art upon consideration of the specification and practice of the disclosure herein. This disclosure is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of this disclosure that follow the general principles of this disclosure and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein.
