KingMix 253PC®
High performance concrete admixture based on polycarboxylic polymers.
Overview
KingMix 253PC is a high performance super plasticising admixture based on polycarboxylic polymers with long chains specially designed to enable the water content of the concrete to perform more effectively. This effect can be used in high strength concrete and flow able concrete mixes, to achieve highest concrete durability and performance.
Applications
- High strength and high performance concrete
- Structures with congested reinforcement
- Pre-cast concrete
- Improved cohesion allow for use in mass concrete pours and piling
- Self-compacting concrete
Advantages
- Optimizes cement utilization
- Improves shrinkage and creep behaviors
- High density and impermeable concrete through very high water reduction
- Higher early and ultimate compressive strengths
- Minimizes segregation and bleeding problems by improving cohesion
- Increases durability and resistance to aggressive atmospheric conditions thorough reduced permeability
- COMPATIBILITY KingMix 253PC can be used with all types of Portland cement and cement replacement materials
- KingMix 253PC should not be used in conjunction with other admixtures unless KINGKRETE Technical Department approval is obtained
- STANDARDS KingMix 253PC complies with ASTM C494, Type G
