Widely used in the production of polycarboxylate superplasticizers for concrete, enhancing workability and reducing water content without compromising strength. Its molecular structure allows for excellent dispersion of cement particles, leading to high-performance concrete in construction. Commonly applied in precast, ready-mix, and high-rise building projects where durability and flowability are critical. Also utilized in some specialty detergents and emulsion polymers due to its surfactant-like properties and ability to improve solubility and stability.
