Polymer-modified cement-based materials have been widely used in building materials. Polymers play a crucial role in improving the performance of cement-based materials. At the same time, different polymers are added according to specific special requirements to meet the needs of the industry. Therefore, this paper reviewed the research on the performance and mechanism of acrylic lotion in modifying cement-based materials. Firstly, the role of acrylate lotion in the improvement of the volume stability, mechanical properties, and durability of cement-based materials was discussed to explore the advantages and disadvantages further, optimize the application of polymer in cement-based materials according to the performance improvement, and amplify the advantages of polymer modification. Secondly, the physicochemical mechanism of acrylate-lotion-modified cement-based materials was discussed, and the products and reactants of acrylate lotion in the reaction process of cement-based materials, as well as the interaction mechanism of acrylic lotion and cement hydrates, were clarified. Cement hydration is a crucial step in exploring the mechanism of polymer-modified cement-based materials. Due to the acrylate lotion filled on the cement surface and the physical and chemical interaction between them, the cement hydration is delayed, resulting in the cement retarding phenomenon. This paper describes its mechanism. Finally, the improvement effect of acrylate lotion on the performance of cement-based materials was reviewed, the research methods of mechanism research on acrylate-lotion-modified cement-based materials were evaluated, and suggestions for future research methods were provided.
