EverStar Group brings you a breakthrough solution for extended workability challenges in modern concrete Applications. Our HPEG2400 Extended Slump Retention Monomer is a precision-engineered polyoxyethylene ether macromonomer with a molecular weight of 2400 g/mol, specifically designed to address the critical 'slump loss' problem faced by ready-mix producers and PCE manufacturers worldwide. Built on 13+ years of chemical manufacturing expertise and backed by our 5,000-ton inventory capacity, we deliver consistent batch-to-batch quality that keeps your concrete fluid and pumpable for 2-4 hours—even under challenging conditions. With EU REACH compliance and factory-direct pricing, you get a monomer that balances extended retention with reliable performance.

You need concrete that stays workable longer without compromising strength. That's exactly what our monomer delivers.
The product is synthesized through advanced alkoxylation technology using methallyl alcohol and ethylene oxide. The secret lies in its molecular architecture—longer polyether side chains create superior steric hindrance effects that prevent cement particle aggregation far more effectively than lower molecular weight alternatives.
Here's what this means for your production:
The 2400 molecular weight hits the sweet spot. It provides the extended retention you need without the excessive setting time delays that come with traditional retarders.

| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Appearance | White to off-white flakes |
| Molecular Weight | 2400 ± 100 g/mol |
| Double-Bond Retention | ≥ 95% |
| Hydroxyl Value | 22-28 mg KOH/g |
| pH (5% aqueous solution) | 5.0-7.0 |
| Moisture Content | ≤ 0.2% |
| Solid Content | ≥ 98% |
| CAS Number | 31497-33-3 |
| Solubility | Highly soluble in water |
Our strict quality control ensures every batch meets these specifications. We test iodine value to verify double-bond retention, monitor pH stability, and run experimental synthesis tests with actual cement samples—so you know the monomer performs in real-world conditions before it reaches your facility.
Note: Product specifications may be adjusted during product iteration and optimization. Please submit your inquiry to us for the latest data and official COA documents.
Where Your Customers Need This Solution Most?Long-Distance Ready-Mix Concrete
Urban infrastructure projects with heavy traffic or remote job sites demand extended workability. Your customers can't afford concrete that stiffens in the truck. This monomer maintains slump for over 3 hours without re-dosing, ensuring placement quality even when delays happen.
Large-scale dam projects, skyscraper raft foundations, and industrial slabs require continuous pouring across massive volumes. Our monomer facilitates low-heat hydration while maintaining high flowability throughout the pour cycle—critical for preventing cold joints and thermal cracking.
Tropical climates and summer construction accelerate hydration, stealing workability fast. This monomer resists that acceleration, keeping concrete placeable under 35°C+ ambient temperatures without sacrificing 28-day strength.
C60-C80 grade concrete for bridge decks, precast elements, and structural components needs both high early strength and extended workability. The 2400 molecular weight delivers that balance.
Manufacturing Scale That Matches Your Ambitions
Our advanced production lines and 5,000+ ton inventory capacity mean we can fulfill trial orders, bulk shipments, or full container loads with 99.5% on-time delivery. You get stable supply when your production schedule demands it.
R&D Support That Solves Real Problems
Our in-house laboratory offers 24-hour custom formulation development. Working with different cement types? Challenging climate conditions? We help you optimize PCE synthesis parameters to maximize the performance of HPEG2400 Extended Slump Retention Monomer in your specific application.
Quality Control That Protects Your Reputation
Each clump experiences thorough testing—from crude fabric review through last item examination. EU REACH compliance and ISO certification cruel reliable quality over each shipment. We too run trial PCE union with your cement tests upon ask, so you confirm execution some time recently committing to expansive orders.
Global Coordinations That Work
With trade involvement crossing 50+ nations and proficient coordinations coordination, we handle complex shipping necessities easily. Adaptable MOQ choices let you begin with trial bunches and scale certainly.

Moisture is the enemy of polyether monomers. Follow these guidelines to maintain quality:
Tall dampness substance (>0.3%) causes chipping to cake and can trigger untimely hydrolysis, altogether lessening the adequacy of your synthesized superplasticizer.

Q: Why select 2400 atomic weight over 2200 for droop retention?
A: The 2400 MW offers longer side chains, giving prevalent steric hindrance—the essential component for expanded droop maintenance. This atomic length avoids cement molecule reaggregation more viably amid the basic 2-4 hour window after mixing.
Q: How does dampness substance influence performance?
A: Dampness over 0.3% causes the drops to cake and may lead to untimely hydrolysis. This altogether diminishes the viability of the synthesized superplasticizer. Continuously confirm dampness substance upon conveyance and store properly.
Q: Will it delay setting time excessively?
A: No. When synthesized accurately, this monomer keeps up workability without the over the top impediment seen with conventional retarders. Beneath typical conditions (20-35°C, standard Portland cement, dose 0.03-0.15%), you can anticipate 2-7 hours of expanded workability without compromising setting characteristics.
Q: What approximately quality development?
A: At break even with droop, the slight water diminishment can accomplish 110%-120% of reference quality at 28 days. At rise to water substance, early quality may be somewhat lower, but 28-day quality matches the reference benchmark.
Q: What happens if I overdose?
A: Slight overdosing ≤0.2% regularly appears typical long-term quality with legitimate sodden curing. Between 0.2%-0.3%, anticipate impediment of 24-72 hours with early quality decrease and 5-10% lower 28-day quality. Overdosing >0.3% causes serious over-retardation, delayed non-setting, and potential component rejection.
Q: Can I mix it with other monomers?
A: Completely. Numerous formulators utilize the item in combination with standard water-reducing monomers to adjust beginning water decrease with long-term maintenance. Our R&D group can offer assistance optimize your mix ratios.
Q: How do I confirm quality upon arrival?
A: Ask our COA (Certificate of Examination) with each shipment. Key tests incorporate iodine esteem (double-bond confirmation), pH testing, corrosive esteem control, and if conceivable, run a small-scale PCE union trial with your standard cement test to affirm water lessening rate and droop maintenance execution.
