Aspects of Admixture Research: On the Use of Machine Learning in Superplasticizer Chemistry
Torben Gädt,

Abstract:The use of superplasticizers in concrete, especially polycarboxylate ethers (PCE), has delivered the ability to easily achieve low water to cement ratios and thereby either higher strength or lower cement contents. In the last years, significant progress has been made with regard to understanding the structure‐activity relationship of the interaction of PCE and cement. For example, scaling laws have been derived for the size of adsorbed PCE, the magnitude of the steric interaction force, for the retardation of… Show more
