An innovative admixture for the precast concrete industry, used for producing both low workability as well as high workability concrete mixtures. The admixture is based on a blend of polymers and surfactants that reduces the amount of water needed and increase compressive strength. It provides a workability time of up to 30 minutes (actual time might vary due to temperature and humidity). The intended use includes low consistency products such as pipes, blocks, etc.

Admixture for dry and semi-dry concrete

Key benefits

  • High range water reducer
  • Shorten mixing time
  • Increase the specific weight of the concrete
  • Workable concrete at a low water-cement ratio
  • Keep workability during transportation and casting
  • Maintain workability at a low water-cement ratio
  • Increase initial and final compressive strengths  
  • Improve efficiency while filling molds and compressing the concrete to them
  • Improve vibration effectiveness while reducing the time required

Concrete properties

Admixture properties

  • Color: Dark brown
  • Density: 1.18 ± 0.03
  • pH Value: 4.5 ± 1
  • Chloride free

Dosage

  • Recommended dosage is 0.8% - 1.8% (% wt. of the cement).

Application

  • To maximize the admixture effective, the admixture should be added after mixing all the other materials with 70% of the water, with the last 30% of the water.

Storage

  • Shelf life: 12 months
  • Recommended storage conditions: store the admixture in sealed dark tanks, located in a shaded area, out of direct exposure to the sun.
