TEC MIX 190
TEC MIX 190
BLOCK SUPER PLASTICIZER
KEY BENEFITS AND FEATURES
- Higher early and ultimate strengths in concrete blocks achieved without increase in cement content.
- Improved dimensional stability.
- Vastly improves texture and finish of concrete blocks.
- Enormously reduces breakages in block manufacturing thereby reducing wastage.
- Improves production efficiency by reducing the production cycle time.
- Superior dispersion of cement particles resulting in maximizing the strength obtained from cement used.
- Enhances durability of blocks.
- Significantly reduces water absorption in blocks.
- Permits early removal from moulds.
USAGE
- Ideal for production of high strength concrete blocks of improved durability.
- Can be used for any kind of concrete placement in moulds like in manufacture of door frames, window frames, jollies, etc.
- Can be ideally used in all types of block making to improve strengths and production efficiency.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
The generally recommended dosage for TecR Mix 190 is 200-300ml per 50Kg bag of cement. TecR Mix 190 should be thoroughly stirred before use. The required quantity of TecR Mix 190 should be added to the gauging water and stirred to obtain uniform consistency before being added to the concrete mix. For specific applications it is advised that site trials be conducted and based on the output required, the optimum dosage may be arrived at. If needed, Techny Tech Team will work with you to arrive at the optimum mix design. Over dosing will result in retardation although the final strength will remain unaltered.
