SAVEMIX® 3000 (BV)

PLASTICIZER FOR REGULAR SLUMP CONCRETE

Properties:

SAVEMIX® 3000 (BV) is a versatile concrete plasticizer for ready-mixed and site-mixed concrete. The product allows, amongst others, the safe adjustment of the slump in F3 concrete (flow slump class acc. to EN). SAVEMIX® 3000 (BV) improves the properties of fresh and hardened concrete:

  • For all concretes of a regular consistency.
  • Fair-faced concrete.
  • Pumped concrete.

Application Method:

SAVEMIX® 3000 (BV) is best added to the ready mix as the last component. The dosage together with the gauging water is also possible when cleared in practical tests. Mixing times depend on the type of mixer and have to be adjusted, if necessary. Sufficient final mixing times must be secured in each case.

Primary Uses :

In ready-mixed concrete applications, SAVEMIX 3000® (BV) affects a better dispersion of the cement grains and therefore leads to a
significantly lower friction in the fresh concrete matrix. Concrete, modified with SAVEMIX 3000® (BV), is easier to transport, pump, place and compact. The product’s water-reducing potential allows the reduction of the w/c ratio at the same consistency or an increase of slump at the same w/c ratio.
