Description
USES
For producing good cohesive concrete or mortar with adequate workability, less porosity and convenience of placement, without the addition of extra water. Very suitable for the precast concrete/ mortar products, as it gives fair-faced concrete/ mortar with improved ultimate Strength.
ADVANTAGES
Improves workability without addition of extra water. Permeability of concrete/ mortar is greatly improved. Does not affect setting times.
Reduces shrinkage, creep and porosity. Provides fair- faced concrete mortar.
No attack on rebar, as it is chloride free.
Concrete/ mortar flow improves, thus suitable for congested reinforcements.
APPLICATION
The dosage of AVCEM-IWA is 0.2% by weight of cement i.e. 100 gms. Per 50 Kg bag of cement, however more accurate dosage can be obtained by laboratory and site trials by mix designing as per appropriate requirements.
