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.

High-level water reduction products can be used in high strength concrete, pumpability, self-consolidating concrete, low permeability, low water absorption concrete and low shrinkage application. Home Formulation Technologies AgChem HLD Insights Sustainability Global Industrial Formulators Contact
Title: A Review on Plasticizers and Eco-Friendly Bioplasticizers
Bioplasticizers are derived mainly from biomass sources including agricultural products, it’s by-products and waste. Regardless of the biomass source, ideal bioplasticizers are expected to be...

How to mix with Cementitious Material: Mix pre-mixed concrete or cement with plasticizer for a few minutes, then add water (mix at least 3-5 minutes). You can also add Super plasticizer to the water 10-15 minutes prior to casting (until plasticizer dissolves in water), then mix with dry ingredients. Please note: Concrete minimum mixing time is
Use of Water Reducers, Retarders, and Superplasticizer
There are four types of superplasticizers: sulfonated melamine, sulfonated naphthalene, modified lignosulfonates and a combination of high dosages of water reducing and accelerating admixtures. Commonly used are melamine based and naphthalene based superplasticizers.
- What is a superplasticizer?
- Our premium superplasticizers are designed to significantly improve the workability and durability of your concrete mixes. By reducing water content without compromising strength, these additives ensure optimal flowability and ease of placement, making them ideal for high-performance concrete applications.
- What is a superplasticizer in concrete?
- Superplasticizers allow a 30% or more reduction in water content. It is chemical admixtures that are added to the concrete to improve its flowing ability, they help to reduce the amount of water in the concrete and to improve the strength and durability of concrete. They achieve a reduction in water content without loss of workability.
- What are water reducing admixtures?
- Our water reducing admixtures are formulated to enhance the workability and strength of concrete by minimizing the water content required in the mix. These additives disperse and lubricate cement particles, leading to improved consistency and easier placement while maintaining the desired performance characteristics.
- What is a high range water reducing admixture?
- Our high range water reducing admixtures provide exceptional performance by significantly lowering water content and increasing concrete flowability. Ideal for demanding applications requiring high strength and durability, these advanced additives ensure optimal results in every mix.
