Overview
KingAdd 100LW is an air entraining admixture for concrete, formulated from selected polymers specially designed to create microscopic air bubbles that are uniformly distributed in the concrete mix. This effect can be used to improve concrete cohesion and resistance to freeze thaw cycles.
Applications
- In concrete mixes for roadways, airport runways and other concrete exposed to potential frost damage
- To increase the durability of concrete and its resistance to damage by frost and de-icing salts
- To increase cohesion of concrete mixes to overcome bleed, segregation and sand runs where poorly graded aggregate with high fine content needs to be used
Advantages
- Greatly improves cohesion, reduces segregation and bleeding
- Increased freeze/thaw cycle resistance
- Improves workability and plasticity
- Exceptionally effective with aggregate with high fine content
- Suitable for mixes containing PFA, GGBS and microsilica
- Chloride free
- COMPATIBILITY KingAdd 100LW can be used with all types of Portland cement and cement replacement materials
- KingAdd 100LW is compatible with other KINGKRETE admixtures used in the same concrete mix
- If more than one type of admixture is to be used in concrete mix, they must be dispensed to the concrete separately
- STANDARDS KingAdd 100LW complies with ASTM C260
