- What is a superplasticizer admixture?
- Superplasticizers are water-reducing admixtures used in concrete production to reduce the need for more than 30% of water. They operate at a certain percentage level. One of their main purposes is to prevent concrete from setting too quickly.
- 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.
- How does admixture affect a concrete mix?
- The admixture thus induces the following major effects in a concrete mix: Without affecting the consistency, permits a reduction in the water content; or Without affecting the water content, increases the slump/flow; or Produces both of the above effects simultaneously. The Omega range is a superplasticizer and high-range water reducers.
