Construction Admixture

Product Details:

Uses:

As an accelerator for use in concrete and cement mortar to give rapid strength development for early stripping of formwork and to help resist the effects of frost. Ideal for winter working

 

Advantages:

·         Allows continued placing of concrete at low temperatures.

·         Gives additional frost protection by reducing the low watercontent and accelerating hydration of cement

·         Enables earlier release from precast moulds thusspeeding production

·         Reduces the water content of concrete or mortar withoutloss of workability

·         Reduces segregation and increases density andcompressive strength

·         Accelerates the hardening of floors and screeds.

 

Standard compliance:  CX FASTSET AC complies with BS 5075 Part 1 and ASTM C494, Type C.

 

Description:

CX FASTSET AC is supplied as a light yellow to white liquid. When added to cementitious mixes it accelerates hydration and enables the water content to perform more efficiently by dispersing agglomerated cement particles. This further improves strength by enabling water reduction to be made at constant workability. Where there is embedded or prestressed steel or where sulphate resistant cement is used or when steam curing is employed, CX FASTSET AC should be replaced by CX FASTSET AN chloride free accelerating concrete admixture.

 

Properties:

• Specific gravity : 1.30 - 1.31 at 30⁰C
• Chloride content: At the maximum recommended rate of addition, 3.4 liters/100 kg of cement, the Chloride ion concentration is 0.9% by weight of cement. In unreinforced concrete containing no embedded metal, CX FASTSET AC, at the recommended dosage rates may be used.
• Air entrainment: General less than 1% additional air.
• Compatibility with other admixtures: CX FASTSET AC is compatible with other CHEMAX admixture but should be added separately to the mix. Reduced air content may result when CX FASTSET AC is used in conjunction with some air entraining agents. Consult CHEMAX  if other admixtures are to be used.
• Compatibility with other cements: CX FASTSET AC is compatible with ordinary and rapid hardening Portland cement but not high alumina or sulphate resisting cements.
• Workability: The addition of CB FASTSET AC without reduction of the water content increases the slump and significantly improves concrete flow characteristics without decrease in concrete strength.
• Setting times :  Typical results using CX FASTSET AC are given in Table 1.

Product Details:

Being a customer oriented organization, we are deeply engaged in offering a wide array of Highly Efficient Set Retarding Concrete Admixture.

Product Details:

CX AIR ENTRAINING is an air-entraining admixture which gives concrete extra protection by creating ultra-stable air bubbles that are strong, small and closely spaced - a characteristic especially useful in the types of concrete known for their difficulty to entrain and maintain the air content desired.

Product Details:

Uses: To improve workability and toweling properties of sand/cement mortar mixes during application to increase quality of masonry and plastering.

Features & Benefits:

• Improved moisture retention and bond strength: Slows down drying out of mortar which remains workable longer. Ensures better bond to all surfaces, including ceiling.
• Makes mortar crack resistant: Minimizes drying shrinkage cracks and increases frost resistance in cold climates.
• High workability: Even with harsh sands, makes creamy easy-to-apply mortar.
• Cost saving: Increase yield of the same quantity of sand/cement. Extra coverage normally exceeds material costs.
• Better & safer masonry: Mortar fills joints easily and efficiently and ensures stronger construction.
• Improved appearance: Mortar cuts cleanly from faces of brick, block or stone work.
• Increased productivity: Speeds up work by easy application of mortar.

 

Description: CX SUPERPLAST 550 Mortar Plasticizer is supplied as off-white to pale yellow liquid which mixes readily with water in any proportions. It is based on internationally recognized chemicals and is free from calcium chloride and similar salts.

Properties:

• Chloride content: Nil
• Compatibility with cements: Can be used with any type of Portland, Super Sulphate, Blast furnace or Pozzolanic cements.
• Setting time: There is no significant effect on the setting of sand/cement mortars.
• Plasticizing action: CX SUPERPLAST 550 Mortar Plasticizer entrains a controlled amount of microscopic air bubbles which increase cohesion and provide lubrication to the sane particles in the mix, thereby imparting improved workability to the mortar. The air bubbles hold the cement/water matrix at the contact surfaces which results in improved bond strengths.
• Frost resistance: Where this is a consideration, that air entrainment appreciably increases the frost resistance of the fully cured mortar and also improves that of fresh mortar, as established by international practice.
• Increased yield: The special action of CX SUPERPLAST 550 Mortar Plasticizer causes the cement particles to disperse evenly throughout the mix, which combined with its air entrainment property, expands the volume of the mortar. Increase in yield for the same quantities of sand and cement is typically between 8% and 18%, depending upon the coarseness or fineness of the sand used. With typical mixes of 1:3 and 1:4 cement: sand, the cost of CX SUPERPLAST 550 Mortar Plasticizer will normally be recovered and, in most cases, a net cost saving will be obtained, as a result of the increased yield.

Application instructions:

• Mixing: CX SUPERPLAST 550 Mortar Plasticizer may be added either direct to an individual mix or to the gauging water, depending upon site convenience.
