ACME Mortar & Block Admixtures | Cargill
Acme Shield Plus admixture is a liquid combination water-repellent and plasticizer used in the production of CMUs, SRWs and pavers. Designed for use during the mixing process, Acme Shield Plus reacts with the calcium salts found in cement, aggregate, and sand to provide water repellency and reduce efflorescence.
Chemical Admixtures - Cement
Accelerating admixtures are especially useful for modifying the properties of concrete in cold weather. Superplasticizers, also known as plasticizers or high-range water reducers (HRWR), reduce water content by 12 to 30 percent and can be added to concrete with a low-to-normal slump and water-cement ratio to make high-slump flowing concrete.
- What is acrylic super plasticizer?
- Acrylic super plasticizer is a high-performance chemical admixture designed for use in concrete admixtures, enhancing workability and durability while reducing water content. As a leading concrete admixture manufacturer, Vinati Organics recommends following the manufacturer’s guidelines for optimal performance and quality.
- What are plasticizer admixtures?
- These admixtures are known as plasticizers. The combination of organic substances or combinations of organic and inorganic substances which cause reduction in water content for a given workability or give a higher workability at the same water content are known or termed as plasticizer admixtures. These are used for the following proposes: 1.
- Why do plasticizers increase the strength of concrete?
- The dispersing ability of plasticizers (water reducing admixtures) results in a greater surface area of cement exposed to hydration. For this reason there is an increase in early strength of concrete than that of admixture free concrete of the same water/cement ratio.
- Why do we use plasticizer?
- The use of plasticizer is found to improve the desirable qualities of the plastic or green concrete. For making reinforced concrete or mass concrete of higher workability nowadays it has become a standard practice to use plasticizer or super plasticizer.
- What is the use of plasticizers in concrete?
- The reduction in water/cement ratio increases the strength and improves durability of the concrete. Sometimes plasticizers are used to reduce the cement content and heat of hydration in mass concrete. Generally following materials are used as plasticizers: 1.
- 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.
