Patent number: 6458870Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing an aqueous solution of sulfonated melamine-formaldehyde resin, and a cement composition in which the solution and a setting retarder are added to a concrete, a mortar, a cement paste or the like. And the process comprises the following step (A), step (B) and step (C): Step (A): a step of adjusting an aqueous solution containing melamine (a), formaldehyde (b), sulfanilic acid (c) and an alkali substance (d) to (a):(b):(c)=1:2.5-3.5:0.5-1.5 in molar ratio and its pH to 8.0-13.5, and thereafter heating the aqueous solution at 50-90° C. to conduct the reaction until free sulfanilic acid decreases to 40-90 mol % of the amount of sulfanilic acid charged; Step (B): a step of adding an inorganic acid to the reaction liquid obtained in the step (A) to adjust its pH to 6.0-8.0, and thereafter heating the reaction liquid at 50-90° C.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2000Date of Patent: October 1, 2002Assignee: Nissan Chemical Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Jun Uchida, Takaichi Sugiyama, Yuhji Sudoh, Keisuke Nakayama
