Roller Compacted Concrete Admixture

Product code: HH RCC01
Description: High-Range Water-Reducing and Set-Retarding Admixture for Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC). Chloride-Free Formulation
Density: 1,05 +/- 0,1 (20°C)
pH: 5.0 +/- 1.0 (20°C)
Appearance/ Color: Liquid, Light brown
Usage Dosage: 0.5-2.0 lit/100kg cement
Characteristics
  • Extends the workable time of concrete; higher dosage results in longer setting time.
  • Improves the workability and ease of placement of concrete.
  • Reduces mixing water requirement.
  • Enhances the strength and durability of concrete
Application
  • Used for large-volume concrete placements to prevent the formation of cold joints in roller-compacted concrete (RCC) dams.
  • Extends workable time, allowing re-compaction without damaging the material. After the initial setting period, heavy loads may damage the newly hydrated concrete layer.
  • Suitable for the production of ready-mix concrete, especially under hot weather conditions.
  • Applicable for manufacturing precast concrete elements.
  • Ideal for mass concrete and hydraulic concrete applications.
  • Also suitable for other types of high-workability concrete.
Compatibility with Other Materials
  • May be used in combination with other admixtures; however, each admixture must be added separately into the mix. Do not premix different admixtures before addition to the concrete.
  • Trial mixes are recommended to determine the appropriate dosage for specific concrete requirements.
  • Compatible with all types of Portland cement, including sulphate-resistant cement.
