The results show that sulfonationt time （2.5 h）, sulfonation temperature （160 ℃） and condensation time （5.0 h） are key factors. Adding oxidizing agent MO in the course of synthesis can decrease the emission of SO2 in exhaust （20%）. Compared with NF, NF-30 have some advantages in lower cost, high water reducing rate （19.7%） and optimum early strengths. Moreover, TGA-DTA and SEM analysis were adopted to research the NF-30 modified concrete on hydyation mechanism. The analysis show that, compared with NF, there are a large number of hydration products such as Ca （OH）2, C-S-H, AFt etc of NF-30, the structure of NF-30 is dense and the performance is good.展开更多
