Abstract
Substances useful as water reducing and superplasticizer additives for cement compositions are formed by reaction of carboxylic acid polymers with polyethers of C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 epoxides wherein partial cleavage of the polyether and esterification of the polyether and the cleavage products thereof by the other reactant are achieved. In one embodiment, a sulfonic acid is used to catalyze the reaction of poly(acrylic acid) and a monofunctional ethylene oxide-propylene oxide copolymer at a temperature in excess of 140.degree. C.
