Naphthalene Sulfonate Superplasticizer: Enhancing Workability and Strength in Modern Concrete Systems 1 accelerator in concrete
1. Chemical Structure and Molecular System 1.1 Synthesis and Molecular Architecture (Naphthalene Sulfonate Superplasticizer) Naphthalene sulfonate formaldehyde condensate (NSF), frequently known as naphthalene sulfonate superplasticizer, is a synthetic water-reducing admixture widely used in high-performance concrete to enhance flowability without jeopardizing architectural stability. It is generated via a multi-step chemical process entailing the sulfonation of naphthalene…
