Usage Areas
- In the production of precast and prefabricated concrete,
- In cold climate concrete pouring,
- In the production of prestressed concrete with low water/cement ratio,
- Where early mold should be taken,
- In the production of colored precast concrete,
- In rheoplastic concretes that can be easily placed on tightly equipped reinforced concrete elements,
- Zero – used in concrete castings produced with slump.
Advantages
- Compared to unfilled concrete, it reduces the amount of water by at least 12% by weight, hydrophobic (water repellent)
- Compared to unfilled concrete, it provides lower water/cement ratio with the same workability or high workability and easy pumpability with the same water/cement ratio,
- Compared to unfilled concrete, it increases their early and final strength,
- Compared to unfilled concrete, it increases the compressive and flexural strength of concrete,
- Compared to unfilled concrete, it shortens the formwork removal time,
- By reducing decomposition and perspiration, it increases the wear resistance of concrete,
- Increases the resistance of concrete to the Freeze and Thaw cycle,
- Improves other mechanical properties of concrete such as impermeability, permanence, shrinkage and creep,
- settles with less vibration even in densely reinforced concrete structures,
- It does not contain chlorine.
