Rationalizing the Effect of the MAA/PEGMA Ratio of Comb‐Shape Copolymers Synthetized by Aqueous Free‐Radical Copolymerization in the Hydration Kinetics of Ordinary Portland Cements
Abstract Methacrylic acid‐co‐poly(ethylene glycol methacrylate) (MAA‐co‐PEGMA) copolymers (MPEG‐type polycarboxylate ether (PCE) superplasticizers) are characterized by a comb‐like structure. Although they have been used for years as dispersants in cementitious formulations, their structure–property...
