Abstract
Abstract When a cement-based mixture such as cement paste, mortar and concrete is admixed with the inventive cement additive composition, the cement-based mixture is imparted with lastingly improved flowability and hence workability. The cement additive composition of the invention comprises (a) 100 parts by weight of a saponified product of (a half ester of) a copolymer of styrene and maleic acid and (b) from 5 to 900 parts by weight of a flowability improving agent such as a salt of a condensation product of naphthalene sulfonic acid with formaldehyde, salt of a condensation product of an alkylnaphthalene sulfonic acid with formaldehyde, salt of a condensation product of a sulfonated creosote oil with formaldehyde and the like.
