Plasticizers For Concrete - Principle, Types & Advantages
Advantages of Plasticizers in Concrete. Improves workability of concrete without the addition of extra water. Improves the strength of concrete without increasing the cement content. Increase the strength characteristics of the finished concrete foundation by twenty five percent. Plasticizers make the compaction easy without the use of vibrators.
- What are concrete superplasticizers & plasticizers?
- Our concrete superplasticizers and plasticizers for the production of quality concrete, ready-mixed/construction site concrete and precast parts made of reinforced and prestressed concrete. Quality and profitability with concrete superplasticizers and concrete plasticizers from Rhein-Chemotechnik GmbH.
- What is a superplasticizer used for?
- Superplasticizers are used in conventional manufacturing processes as well as in highly-flowable and self-compacting concrete (SCC). ALPHALITH® admixtures have proven to be effective in the production of ready-mixed and construction site concrete with the highest requirements, such as high-strength concrete up to C100/115.
- What are alphalith® concrete superplasticizers & plasticizers?
- ALPHALITH® concrete superplasticizers and plasticizers allow for the production of cost-optimized top-quality concrete in all consistency, strength and exposure classes.
- What is the consumption of plasticizers in ready-mixed concrete?
- Consumption of plasticizers, when they are added to ready-mixed concrete depends on the workability of the concrete when it arrives at the work site, and on its desired final workability.
- What are the reasons for plasticizing concrete?
- Extreme or difficult concreting applications, because of their position, shape, or dense reinforcement of structural elements, cases of exposed concrete etc., which are usually found in modern constructions, require plasticizing of concrete without adding additional water, which reduces its strength.
- When should plasticizers be added to concrete?
- When plasticizers are added to the concrete by the time it is delivered in site, in order to increase it’s flow, then they should be added shortly before concreting, because the working time for these admixtures is approx. 30 minutes. An excessive dose may prolong setting time, but without negative effects on the concrete’s final strength.
