The Optimal Design on the Molecular Structure of a Fluid Transport Inhibitor Applied to Reinforced Concrete Structures.

Inhibiting the penetration of water molecules and aggressive ions is of considerable significance in improving the durability of reinforced concrete structures. In this work, molecular dynamics(MD) is employed to design a high-efficiency organic fluid transport inhibitor. MD results indicate that there is mutual complementation between the hydrophilic and hydrophobic functional groups in the chemical structure of this polymer.
