COSTARMIX 200DG

Description

COSTARMIX 200DG is high performance water-reducing admixture with higher retention time design to produce high slump concrete with improved workability, durability and also reduces permeability.

COSTARMIX 200DG is a ready-to-use liquid which is dispensed into the concrete together with the mixing water. The plasticizing effect and water reduction are higher if the admixture is added to the concrete after 70-80% of the mixing water has been added.

Advantages

• High initial slump and retention time
• Improved workability, air entrainment and pumping properties
• It is suitable for use in the production of flowing concrete for easier construction with quicker placing and compaction without increasing water content.
• Improved compressive and flexural strength of the concrete both at early and final stages.
• Reduced dimensions of long term shrinkage and creep.
• Also minimizes the risk of segregation and bleeding
• Chloride-free and suitable for pre-stressing
• Protection of reinforcement steel against detrimental water-borne attack
• Reduces the need for job site adjustment of slump and workability
• Liquid – Easy to use.
• Low dosage – Economical.
• Improved surface finish.
• Increased durability.

Area of Use

• To provide excellent strength at early ages and major increases in strength at all ages by significantly reducing water demand in a concrete mix.
• Costarmix 200DG is used to produce various ranges of concrete such as:
  • ready-mix
  • pumped concrete
  • micro silica concrete etc
• Used to produce durable and workable concrete with lower total water content
