The delay set feature of the products helps keep the first layer of concrete plastic as you work your way around the forms. 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.
Effect of Superplasticizer on Fresh and Hardened
This paper has been made an attempt to study the influence of superplasticizer dose of 0.6, 0.8, 1.2, 1.8 and 2.5 percentage on performance of concrete. The experimental tests for fresh and...
Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer (PCE) For Concrete
Polycarboxylate superplasticizer (PCE), also known as polycarboxylate ether superplasticizer, is a new generation of high-performance concrete admixture. It is a water reducing agent with excellent performance that integrates water reduction, slump protection, reinforcement, shrinkage and environmental protection.
Evaluation of the superplasticizer effect on the
Superplasticizer (SP) is important for enhancing the workability and setting time of concrete in hot weather. Hence, an expe-ri-mental investigation was conducted to determine the optimum dosage...
- What is polycarboxylate superplasticizer (PCE)?
- Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer (PCE) is a water-soluble concrete additive used to reduce water to cement ratio without affecting the workability of the mixture. PCE increases protection from slumping, then increases the slump retention since cement loses workability with time. PCE increases the structure’s strength after construction.
- What is sikacim® concrete admixture?
- Increased watertightness. SikaCim® Concrete Additive is a high range water reducing concrete admixture specially formulated for the precast concrete element industry; to meet the demand of early removal of formwork due to the early strength gain. Enables concrete placing equipment to be used to its full capacity. Effective throughout dosage range.
- How much sikacim ® concrete additive can be used?
- SikaCim® Concrete Additive can be used at the dose rate 0.30 % - 2.0 % by total weight of cementitious material depending on requirements concerning workability and strength. It is recommended that trial mixes be conducted to determine the exact dosage rate required.
- Can sikacim® concrete additive be added to gauging water?
- SikaCim® Concrete Additive can be added to the gauging water prior to its addition to the dry aggregates or separately to the freshly mixed concrete (on the batching plant or on site into the truck mixer) where added to truck mixer on site, further mixing for three to five minutes should be carried out.
