Analytical method for determining the saturation point of superplasticizers in cement pastes using the Marsh cone

Abstract The optimum dosage of superplasticizer (SP) additives is determined by the saturation point of SP (SPS), obtained on cement paste by the utilization of the Marsh cone. Obtaining the SPS is important because it defines the amount of SP that should be used in concrete dosages when it is neces...
