WATER REDUCING & PLASTICISER
Water-reducing admixtures are used to increase the strength and workability of concrete and to reduce cost. They consist of certain organic compounds or mixtures of organic and inorganic compounds to reduce the water requirement of the mixture for a given slump. Reduction in water demand may result in a reduction in the w/cm for a given slump and cement content, an increased slump for the same w/cm and cement content, or a lower cement content (cost saving) at a constant w/cm and slump.
- Concrete water reduction rate can reach more than 25%, can save about 20% of cement, especially when fly ash, slag powder content is large economic benefits are more obvious
- Can obviously improve workability and pump ability of concrete mixture
- Empower concrete with favorable fluidity and self-compaction
- Can obviously increase concrete strength and anti-permeability.
WATERPROOFING ADMIXTURE
Waterproofing admixtures are porous materials that have the ability to absorb water and water-borne contaminants. Hydrophobic and pore blocking ingredients react with products of the cement hydration process to produce a hydrophobic material which resists external water, decreasing absorption into the concrete.
- Higher strength and impermeability of concrete is greatly improved
- Highest possible water tightness achieved through lower w/c, thereby ensuring durability of concrete structure
- With increased cohesion, segregation and bleeding are substantially reduced
- Is highly effective in reduction of permeability due to hydrostatic head pressure or capillary action or both
- Contains active corrosion inhibitors which protect steel against corrosion
- Improved surface finish of concrete
- Improved pump ability and workability
BENTONITE
Bentonite Powder is naturally occurring clay that in the presence of fresh water will swell up to fifteen times its size. Historically, clays have been used to provide natural earthen seals without the use of tars, polymers, plastics and environmentally unfriendly materials. Bentonite Powder will provide a better barrier to the penetration of fresh water through soil. Protect your basement foundation without trapping moisture underground! A dry basement is imperative if the house was built using lime mortar. Lime dissolves when it stays consistently wet.
- High trench-stability and productivity
- Improved gelling capability
- Provides best lubricity
- Suitable for all kinds of soil surface
- Good suspension capability
