A composite cementitious feedstock includes mineral rock agglutinates, super absorbent polymer (SAP) particles, cement particles, and a binder. Each of the agglutinates has irregular surface regions and cavities originating at the irregular surface regions. At least a portion of the SAP particles and cement particles are disposed on the irregular surface regions and in the cavities. The binder coheres the agglutinates, SAP particles, and cement particles.

Embodiments of the invention relate to concrete admixtures, provide a phosphonato block polymer, a preparation method and an application. The method includes: the phosphonato block polymer prepared by copolycondensating an ether-type segment A, a phosphonato segment B, and a third part of aldehyde C. The ether-type segment A is obtained by polycondensating a polyether monomer and a first part of aldehyde C. The phosphonato segment B is obtained by polycondensating a monomer b containing phosphonato, a monomer c, and a second part of aldehyde C in an aprotic weak polar solvent E. By preparing a block polymer using arylalkane as a main chain and using a phosphonic acid or phosphinic acid functional group as an adsorption group, the invention improves the resistance of the block polymer to sulfate and clay interference, and can achieve initial high dispersion of concrete with a low water-cement ratio and decreasing of the system viscosity.
