Abstract A new type of water-reducing agent, which contains polyamine side chains, has been theoretically studied utilizing molecular dynamics simulation (MD) in this research. The models of three types of water reducers in an aqueous solution, including SNF, PCE, and PCA, have been constructed, simulated, and analyzed. The results indicate that compared to the linear structure of SNF, the traditional PCE water-reducing agent has a stronger interaction with water molecules, so it has a better water-reducing effect. This stronger interaction is mainly provided by the side chain of PCE. PCA further enhances the hydrophilicity of its side chain based on PCE structure, leading to a stronger interaction on water molecules than traditional PCE molecules. The migration ability of water-reducing agents and other molecules in the system has been further explored. The diffusion coefficient of three water reducer molecules decreases in the following order: PCE>SNF>PCA. This is due to the interaction between molecules, especially the incompatible strength and quantity of hydrogen bonding.
