PCE (Polycarboxylate Ether)
-
Polycarboxylate-based grinding aids are synthetic polymers that contain carboxylic acid groups. The utilization of polycarboxylate-based grinding aids is effective in reducing the surface energy of clinker particles, leading to an improvement in the efficiency of the grinding process. They can also improve the workability and flowability of cement and reduce the tendency of the cement to segregate.
