Effect of Side Chain Length on Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer in Aqueous Solution: A Computational Study
Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to study the conformations of polycarboxylate ether (PCE) superplasticizers with different side chain lengths in aqueous solution. For four types of PCE molecules—PCE1, PCE2, PCE3, and PCE4—the steric hindrance between the PCE molec...
