Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Cementitious mixtures, compositions for use in cementitious mixtures, and methods of producing cementitious mixtures wherein the compositions are suitable for modifying or improving certain properties of the cementitious mixtures. The compositions include a superabsorbent polymer (SAP) hydrogel having a macromolecular network structure, and at least one pozzolanic material that is chemically incorporated into the macromolecular network structure of the SAP hydrogel.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A composition for use as a curing agent in a cementitious mixture, the composition comprising: a superabsorbent polymer (SAP) hydrogel having a macromolecular network structure; and at least one pozzolanic material that is chemically incorporated into the macromolecular network structure of the SAP hydrogel, the at least one pozzolanic material being Class C fly ash, silica fume, metakaolin, rice husk ash, Class F fly ash, slag, calcined shale, or any combination thereof. 2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition contains more than one pozzolanic material. 3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition includes 0.5 to 90 percent by weight of the pozzolanic material incorporated into the SAP hydrogel. 4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises ungrafted polymer incorporated into the macromolecular network structure of the SAP hydrogel. 5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition includes 75 to 90 percent by weight of the pozzolanic material incorporated into the SAP hydrogel.
