The water soluble polymers based on polycarboxlates are come into the spot-light in the detergent fields of CaCO_3, Al(OH)_3 and leather industries. In this research, we synthesized molecular weights(Mn) by changing the concentrations of monomer(acrylic acid-methylacrylate mixture), chain transfer agent(butanethiol) and initiator(ammoniumpersulfate). We investigated the influences on the fluidities(the flow & the mini slump) and the setting times of cement material admixtured with the copolymers by the statistical method. The optimum synthesis formulation of the poly-(AA-co-MA) for cement materials is at the concentrations of monomer 50 M%, chain transfer agent 6.0 M% and initiator 2.0 M%. The number-average molecular weight of that was decided on 7,600 by the viscosity method.
