KingMix 343PC®
High performance concrete admixture based on polycarboxylic polymers.
Overview
KingMix 343PC is a high performance super plasticizing admixture based on polycarboxylic polymers with long chains specially designed for use in plain cement concrete (PCC) and early strength precast elements, to enable the water content of the concrete to perform more effectively. This effect can be used in high strength concrete and flowable concrete mixes, to achieve highest concrete durability and performance.
Applications
- To produce high quality concrete of improved durability and water tightness
- High strength and high performance concrete
- Improved cohesion allow for use in mass concrete pours and piling
- For use in PCC applications such as in airport runways and taxiways
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 343PC can be used with all types of Portland cement and cement replacement materials. KingMix 343PC should not be used in conjunction with other admixtures unless DCP Technical Department approval is obtained
- STANDARDS KingMix 343PC complies with ASTM C494, Type F
