REMICRETE®-A100

Water-Reducing & waterproofing, High-Performance Concrete Admixture

Properties:

REMICRETE®-A100 is a high-performance, liquid, water-reducing “plasticizer” & waterproofing concrete admixture formulated to improve workability, reduce permeability and improve durability. Once incorporated in the mix, REMICRETE®-A100 is adsorbed on the cement particles‘ surface inducing a powerful deflocculating property, effectively reducing the concrete mixing water demand and improving the physical and mechanical properties of the resultant concrete. REMICRETE®-A100 is based on a blend of modified Lignosulphonates and organic modifiers designed with the main purpose of reducing workability loss.

Areas of Application:

REMICRETE®-A100 is typically used to produce:

  • Ready mix concrete
  • Precast concrete
  • All concrete works where good workability and increased waterproofing properties are required. Such as: swimming pools, sea walls, tunnels, bridges, basements, etc.

Advantages:

  • Reduced mixing water while maintaining the same workability.
  • Improved workability & pumping properties.
  • Improved physical & mechanical properties.
  • Improved surface finish.
  • Improved cohesion minimizes risks of segregation, bleeding and creep.
