Impact of zeta potential of early cement hydration phases on superplasticizer adsorption (2007, background): “In many cases, these were attributed to variations in aluminate content in the cements [20–26].”
Effectiveness of Polycarboxylate Superplasticizers in Ultra-High Strength Concrete: The Importance of PCE Compatibility with Silica Fume (2009, background): “Among the most effective superplasticizers are combtype copolymers which consist of an anionic backbone and uncharged side chains (Sakai et al. 2003; Plank 2004).”
Packing density of cementitious materials: part 2—packing and flow of OPC + PFA + CSF (2008, background): “The steric action of SP1 comes from its copolymer side-chains, which wrap the surfaces of the particles and provide physical barriers to separate the particles from each other [21, 22 ].”
Synthesis and performance of methacrylic ester based polycarboxylate superplasticizers possessing hydroxy terminated poly(ethylene glycol) side chains (2008, background): “For the dispersing effect it is generally accepted that the superplasticizer molecules have to adsorb onto the cement grain surface [14,15].”
