KingMix 42SP®
High range concrete superplasticiser admixture.
Overview
KingMix 42SP is a high performance liquid concrete admixture formulated from selected polymers specially designed to enable the water content of the concrete to perform more effectively. This effect can be used to improve workability and to increase ultimate strengths by the very high levels of water reduction in the concrete mix.
Applications
- To increase workability retention of fresh concrete
- To provide increased ultimate strength by reducing water demand in concrete mixes
- To produce high quality concrete of improved durability by reducing permeability
Advantages
- Higher strength with same cement content
- Minimizing segregation problems by improving cohesion
- Improved workability reduces placing and compaction problems
- Cement saving without affecting strength
- More durable concrete as a result of reduction in permeability and lower water to cement ratio
- Chloride free
- COMPATIBILITY KingMix 42SP can be used with all types of Portland cement and cement replacement materials. KingMix 42SP 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 KingMix 42SP complies with ASTM C494, Type B, D and G, depending on dosage used
