COSTARMIX 200MS

Description

Costarmix 200MS is an exclusively formulated chloride-free, super plasticizing SNF-based polymer. This high-range water reducer is tailor-made to improve workability, durability, and decrease permeability in concrete. It is supplied in the form of a brown solution that readily disperses in water, guaranteeing effective utilization of water content for optimal performance.

Advantages

• Significant early-age strength improvements can be achieved without the need for higher cement contents, which is particularly advantageous in precast concrete, enabling earlier stripping times.
• It allows substantial reductions in the water-to- cement ratio, facilitating the production of high-strength concrete without excessive cement usage.
• When used in the production of flowing concrete, it enables easier construction with faster placing and compaction, resulting in reduced labor costs without increasing the water content.
• The increased workability levels are sustained for longer compared to standard sulphurated melamine admixtures.
• Improved cohesion and particle dispersion effectively minimize segregation and bleeding while enhancing pumpability.
• Being chloride-free, it is safe to use in prestressed and reinforced concrete.
• In screed material, the lower water content leads to quicker drying times, speeding up the overall process.

Application Area

• To provide excellent acceleration of early strength and major increases in strength at all ages by significantly reducing water-cement ratio in a concrete mix.
• Particularly suitable for precast concrete and other high early strength requirements.
• To significantly improve the workability of on-site and precast concrete without increasing water-cement ratio.
• To provide improved durability by increasing ultimate strengths and reducing concrete permeability.
• In screeds it reduces the water content required to give suitable workability for placing and compaction.
