REMICRETE®-F4 (FM)

High Efficiency Superplasticizer For Ready-mix And Precast Concrete

Properties:

REMICRETE-F4 (FM) is a concentrated superplasticizer for low w/c concretes or where highly flowable mixes are required without affecting setting times. Based on naphthalene sulphonate, REMICRETE-F4 (FM) will result in better dispersion of cement agglomerates and optimal wetting of cement particles. REMICRETE-F4 (FM) is particularly suited for the production of ready mix and pre-cast concretes.

Dosage Range:

0.2 – 3.0 % by weight of cement.
(0.17 – 2.50 Litre for each 100 kg of cement)
The final dosage quantity depends, among others, on the reactivity of the cement and the concrete recipe. This must be determined by suitability trials. In case of overdosing, consult our local agent or our technical office. Suitability tests according to valid standards and norms should be carried out prior to usage.

Advantages:

  • Results in homogeneous mix and pumpability.
  • Significant initial and final strength gains.
  • Ability to highly reduce w/c ratios.
  • No adverse effect on setting times.
  • Does not entrain air.
  • Easy finishing of surfaces – no stickiness.
