CHEM 2
Category
Concrete & Mortar AdmixturesCHEM 2 is a ready to use plasticizer for concrete and mortars. It complies with EN 934-2 Table 2.
USE
CHEM 2 is used to improve plasticity and to reduce the amount of water in order to increase the strength of the concrete.
ADVANTAGES
- It improves watertightness of concrete.
- It reduces the cracking probability during the setting.
- It does not affect the reinforcement.
- It is non-flammable.
- It does not affect setting time.
INSTRUCTIONS
CHEM 2 is added to the mixing water or directly to the fresh concrete.
Dosage: For normal conditions from 0.2 to 0.4% on cement weight. It can be raised up to 0.8% on cement weight or more according to need, after suitable trials. The improvement of plasticity depends on the quantity of CHEM 2 per m³ of concrete the temperature, and the cement type. CHEM 2 improves the compressive and flexural strength of concrete (at 3, 7 and 28 days).
USEFUL DATA
Packaging: IBCs of 1200 kg, drums of 250 kg, containers of 20 kg.
Shelf life: At least 6 months in the original sealed containers at a cool spot. If frozen, it can be defrosted at low temperature (30°C) under continuous stirring and used without problem.
CHEM 2 is compatible with the range of admixtures offered by our company.
