TPEG 2400 is a polyether macromonomer serving as a key raw material of polycarboxylate superplasticizers (PCE). It is synthesized through the reaction of isopentenol with ethylene oxide, with an average molecular weight of around 2400. Typically presenting as a white to light yellow water-soluble solid, TPEG 2400 features a stable molecular structure with high double bond retention, enabling efficient participation in polymerization reactions.
PCE admixtures synthesized from TPEG 2400 show reliable slump retention, consistent performance, and broad compatibility with various cement systems. These properties make it well-suited for concrete and mortar applications where dependable workability maintenance and effective water reduction are required.
