Additives For Concrete
What Are Concrete Admixtures?
Concrete admixtures are materials added to ready-mixed concrete to improve its properties, whether in the fresh state (such as workability) or in the hardened state (such as strength and durability).
What Are the Uses of Concrete Admixtures?
They are used to achieve specific objectives such as reducing water content, accelerating or retarding the setting time, improving permeability, or increasing corrosion resistance.
What Are the Types of Concrete Admixtures?
Water-Reducing Admixtures:
These admixtures decrease the amount of water required in the concrete mix, which increases concrete strength and improves its durability.
Set Retarding and Accelerating Admixtures:
These admixtures affect the setting time of concrete. They are used to delay setting in hot weather conditions, or to accelerate setting in cold climates.
There are many different types of concrete admixtures used depending on project requirements. Ichem for Modern Building Solutions provides the best concrete admixtures with the highest quality and most competitive prices. Contact us now and one of our engineers will respond to all your inquiries.
