Research on Wheat Straw Application in the Preparation of Superplasticizer

الملخص EN

Wheat straw was utilized in the preparation of polycarboxylate superplasticizer (PCS) to improve its performance as well as to reduce the production cost in this paper.

The addition time and pretreatment time of wheat straw in the production of PCS were detected.

Orthogonal experimental design was adopted to optimize the components of reactants, and the adding time of the initiator was also examined.

The PCS produced with wheat straw in this paper kept a rather high water-reducing rate.

In addition, the results of some physical characteristics showed there were no obvious differences between the PCS produced with and without wheat straw, while the PCS produced with wheat straw had the longer time of coagulation.

At the same time, infrared spectrum implied that the addition of wheat straw made the side chain more abundant and had little influence on the main chain of the large molecules.
