ADVANTAGES             

• It significantly improves the workability of the concrete mix. In presence of the admixture, the slump value increases resulting in ease of placing the concrete mix.
• Addition of the admixture can reduce the water content of the concrete mix by 40% or more, which results in more dense concrete, thereby increasing the compressive strength. This improves the durability, impermeability and frost & water resistant properties of the mix.
• It decreases the amount of vibration required and it significantly reduces the risk of segregation.
• Economics in mix design can be achieved by reducing cement usage.

PROPERTIES

Type                          :       Modified Sulphonated Naphthalene                                               Formaldehyde Condensate (SNF)

Colour                       :        Dark Brown/Black liquid

Specific gravity         :      1.20 +/- 0.02 at 25^OC

Chloride Content     :      Nil

Nitrate Content       :       Nil

MECHANISM

When Portland cement is mixed with water, the cement agglomerates stick to each other due to insufficient mutual electrostatic repulsion. With the presence of CETEX-SPWR, the attraction between the particles is reduced and the cement particle disperse, hence a more cohesive and consistent mix is achieved.

CETEX SPWR

USAGE 

CETEX-SPWR should be added to the concrete mix during the mixing cycle after addition of water. Never add CETEX-SPWR to the dry mix. 

PACKING

CETEX-SPWR is available in 25, 60 or 250 kg pack or bulk. Store in frost-free condition away from sunlight or extreme heat. For best result, use within one year.
