As a premium superplasticizer, this admixture offers up to 40% water reduction and a Supercizer 7 does not contain hazardous materials and comes packaged in our signature water-soluble bags.
Superplasticizer
Superplasticizers ( SPs ), also known as high range water reducers, are additives used in making high strength concrete. Plasticizers are chemical compounds that enable the production of concrete with approximately 15% less water content. Superplasticizers allow reduction in water content by 30% or more.

KEM SUPLAST SCC 30 Description: (Polycarboxylic polymer based HRWRA, conforms to EN 934.2 and ASTM C 494 Type G) KEM SUPLAST SCC 30 is a polycarboxylic either based concrete super plasticizer, disperses the concrete medium at a substantial lower dosage than conventional concrete superplasticizers and improves consistency as well as strength.
- What is a superplasticizer used for?
- Superplasticizers (SPs), also known as high range water reducers, are additives used for making high strength concrete or to place self-compacting concrete. Plasticizers are chemical compounds enabling the production of concrete with approximately 15% less water content. Superplasticizers allow reduction in water content by 30% or more.
- What is the difference between a plasticizer and a superplasticizer?
- Plasticizers are chemical compounds enabling the production of concrete with approximately 15% less water content. Superplasticizers allow reduction in water content by 30% or more. These additives are employed at the level of a few weight percent. Plasticizers and superplasticizers also retard the setting and hardening of concrete.
- What is the difference between water reducing and superplasticizer?
- Water-reducing plasticizers reduce the amount of water needed in the concrete mix, while superplasticizers can increase the workability of the concrete without increasing the water content. Retarding plasticizers slows down the setting time of the concrete, which can be useful in hot or dry weather conditions.
- What are plasticizers & water reducers?
- Plasticizers and water reducers are chemical admixtures used to make concrete more workable. Unless the mixture is “starved” of water, increasing the w/c ratio reduces the concrete’s strength. An increase in durability is achieved by decreasing the water content (without “starving” the concrete).
- What is polycarboxylate superplasticizer (PCE)?
- Polycarboxylate superplasticizer (PCE), the third generation of high-performance superplasticizer, follows the development of ordinary plasticizers and superplasticizers. It significantly reduces water content while enhancing concrete's workability, strength, and durability.
- How do plasticizers and water reducers affect concrete strength?
- Since the heat of hydration of mass concrete goes down when the cement weight goes down, plasticizers can do this. Plasticizers and water reducers are chemical admixtures used to make concrete more workable. Unless the mixture is “starved” of water, increasing the w/c ratio reduces the concrete’s strength.
