Construction 8. Building Materials Vol. 6 No. 4 1992
The water-reducing agent better known as superplasticizer is a recent development. A number of base meterials have been used for Ihe development of such water-reducing agents which can act better then ordinary plasticizers in concrete. The sulphonated salts of melamine, napthalene, lignin, hydroxycarboxylic Id~ lind hydroxylated polymers are some typical compounds. Recently cashew nutshell liquid obtained from a natural product waste as a thick black phenolic compound has been converted into a water-reducing agent. This piper describes the results obtained on its effectiveness in influencing the rheological properties of flow viscosity. particle-size distribution, etc. of cement particles in hydrating cements and IIle water-reducing capabililies in cement mortars and concretes. |
