Abstract |
It is well known that the fluidity and the fluidity loss of fresh concrete are affected by the kind of organic admixtures. Organic admixture can improve the properties of concrete. Sulfonated Naphthalene-Formaldehyde(SNF) Superplasticizer is used representatively, but has a problem in fluidity loss. In this study, we synthesized the Sulfonated Melamine-Formaldehyde(SMF) superplasticizer at the various synthetic conditions and compared the physical properties with SMF superplasticizer. SW superplasticizer is synthesized with four synthetic steps. Step 1 is hydroxymethylation, Step. 2 is Sulfonation, Step. 3 is Polymerization and Step. 4 is Stabilization. Synthesis of SMF superplasticizer depends on pH, temperature and reaction time. In this reaction, we changed the mole ratio of melamine to formaldehyde at 1:3, 1:4, and the amount of acid catalyst at Step. 3. After application of SMF superplasticizer and its mixture with SNF superplasticizer to cement pastes and mortars, we measured the physical properties of them at the different dosages(0.5, 1.0, 1.5wt%) to cement. All samples including superplasticizer showed higher compressive strengths and slump, smaller pore size and porosity than CEM
