Abstract

Under high-temperature conditions, the fluidity retention properties of polycarboxylate superplasticizers remain a challenge. This study improved the molecular structure of traditional slow-release polycarboxylate superplasticizers (also known as slump-retention agents) by introducing hydroxypropyl acrylate, successfully synthesizing a novel slump-retention agent that maintains concrete slump for an extended period at high temperatures. Comparing its performance with two other conventionally synthesized slump-retention agents, the superior performance of the new agent was verified. We then delved into the behavior of this novel slump-retention agent under different temperature conditions.
