Polycarboxylate Ethers (PCE)
Superplasticizers for Ready Mix, Precast and Shotcrete (Concrete)
Identification
Ethacryl ™ G
- Designed for Ready Mix concrete
- Provides high efficiency at low dosage in ready mix application with high water reduction ability
Ethacryl ™ GH
- Designed for Ready Mix concrete
- Provides high efficiency at low dosage in ready mix application with high water reduction ability
- Cost effective solution
Ethacryl ™ HP
- Designed for Precast formulations
- Shows high efficiency at low dosage in precast with high water reduction ability for high performance applications
Ethacryl ™ HF
- Designed for high performance concrete
- Provides high efficiency at low dosage in self compacting concrete and precast with high water reduction ability and high early strength
Ethacryl ™ SR
- Designed for Ready Mix concrete
- Used alone, at low dosage
- This additive allows a strong water reduction (>25%) but also drastically increases the slump retention over the time without any segregation
- 2 in 1 PCE (water reducer and slump retention additive)
Applications
