Tailoring the solution conformation of polycarboxylate superplasticizer toward the improvement of dispersing performance in cement paste
TL;DR: In this paper, two groups of comb-like polycarboxylate ether (PCE) polymers were synthesized by aqueous free radical polymerization from acrylic acid (AA), methacrylic acid (MAA), and poly(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ether methacrylate.

Effect of hydrophobic units of polycarboxylate superplasticizer on the flow behavior of cement paste
TL;DR: For the tuning of conformation of polycarboxylate (PCE) superplasticizers, hydrophobic groups of different stiffness were incorporated, including styrene (St), methyl methacrylate (MMA), ECA, and n-butyl acrylate units as mentioned in this paper.

Effects of Sequence Structure of Polycarboxylate Superplasticizers on the Dispersion Behavior of Cement Paste
TL;DR: In this paper, different AA-OEGMA copolymers with random and block distributions were synthesized using free radical polymerization and reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization, respectively.

Effect of side chains in block polycarboxylate superplasticizers on early-age properties of cement paste
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of side chains in block polycarboxylate superplasticizers (PC) and cement paste was systematically studied by various characterization methods such as paste flow, adsorption properties, calorimetric measurements and amount of hydration products.

Preferential adsorption of superplasticizer on cement/silica fume and its effect on rheological properties of UHPC
TL;DR: In this article , the adsorption behavior of two comb-shaped superplasticizers (PCEs) containing only carboxyl groups and both carboxy and phosphate groups on cement/silica fume, and their influence mechanism on rheological properties of pastes with low w/b of 0.2 were investigated.
