New Trends in the Development of High-Range Water-Reducing Admixtures
Journal Title: Challenges of Modern Technology - Year 2015, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Chemical admixtures, in addition to cement, sand, gravel and water, are a primary component of concrete. High-range water reducers, also known as superplasticizers, are one of the most important chemical admixtures. The different kinds of superplasticizers possess specific advantages, but also drawbacks. Therefore, new chemical structures for advanced superplasticizers need to be tried. This paper presents new trends in the development of superplasticizers.

Effect of plasticizers, superplasticizers and silica fly ash on concrete water-resistance
Concrete is one of the basic construction materials. It is a composite made of cement, water, coarse and fine aggregate. In the past, concrete was produced only with primary components, and it was often of poor quality....
