A fluorescent polycarboxylate superplasticizer and a preparation method thereof. The preparation process of the polycarboxylate superplasticizer is as follows. Firstly, a redox radical polymerization is performed on a monomer of an unsaturated acid and a derivative thereof, and an unsaturated polyether monomer to form a polycarboxylate superplasticizer pre-product. Then, the polycarboxylate superplasticizer pre-product is subjected to an esterification reaction with an organic molecule having a fluorescent property to obtain the fluorescent polycarboxylate superplasticizer. The method effectively reduces the reaction difficulty and makes the reaction rapid and efficient. The fluorescent polycarboxylate superplasticizer is non-toxic and non-polluting, and has good controllability in the production process and less side reactions. The fluorescent polycarboxylate superplasticizer can be applied to different kinds of cement, having a high water-reducing rate, and a relatively high cost performance and competitive advantage.

Compatibilizers are disclosed that enable the formation of stable alloys of fluoropolymers with cyclic olefin copolymers (COC). The alloys are useful for many purposes, such as high frequency electronics. Methods of making the compatibilizer and the alloy are further provided.

The disclosure relates to a metalated-sulfonated styrenic block copolymer (SO.sub.3.sup.M.sup.+-SBC) composition. The composition is obtained by epoxidation of SBC precursor followed by alcoholysis of epoxidized SBC using Grignard reagent, and then lithiation and sulfonation (in-situ). The precursor polymer can have any of a sequential diblock, triblock or a coupled structure, which can be extended to a tetrablock, a pentablock copolymer, with at least one of the blocks metalated-sulfonated. The SO.sub.3.sup.M.sup.+-SBCs are suitable for use as electrolytes in energy storage devices. The SO.sub.3.sup.M.sup.+-SBC is converted to sulfonic acid styrenic block copolymer (SO.sub.3.sup.H-SBC) upon acidification. The SO.sub.3.sup.H-SBCs are suitable for use as cation exchange membranes and numerous ion and moisture transport applications.
