• Styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) has been extensively applied to enhance the toughness of hardened cement. The instability of existing liquid latex leads to difficulties in storage and transportation, and even performance regression. Thus, the well-dispersed carboxylated butylbenzene (SISBR) latex powders were fabricated through the seed emulsion polymerization of liquid polybutadiene (LPB), styrene (St), itaconic acid (IA), and sodium p-styrenesulfonate (SSS) to overcome the difficulties. The dispersion performance of latex powders with various IA amounts was quantitatively evaluated using particle size distribution, zeta potential, and ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry. Results showed that the carboxylic ionic (COO-) from IA enhanced the dispersing abilities of SISBR latex powders, which ensured the uniform distribution in water. Based on this, the influence of latex powder on cement was assessed mainly by fluidity, isothermal heat flow calorimetry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and triaxial mechanical testing. Results showed the fluidity and dispersion performance of cement were improved with more IA in latex, while the hydration of cement was retarded due to excessive adsorption of carboxyl (-COOH) groups in IA. Triaxial mechanical testing showed that cement with SISBR-3 (latex containing 3% IA) exhibited the minimal elastic modulus of 3.16 GPa, which was lower than that of plain cement (8.34 GPa).
