TS EN 934-2 Table 3.1 and 3.2: High Water-Reducing / Superplasticizer Concrete Additive

Description

Aydosnew® Fluid 80 is a next-generation superplasticizer concrete additive based on polycarboxylates. It is designed to produce high-strength concrete with excellent workability, without delaying setting time. This additive provides self-compaction in heavily reinforced elements and is highly effective in reducing water content, making it ideal for concrete production with high early and final strength.

Applications

• Production of high-performance concrete.

• Concrete mixes requiring high early strength.

• Concrete mixes that require excellent flowability and consistency retention.

• Reinforced concrete applications with placement challenges due to fine reinforcement.

• Strengthening projects.

• Production of prestressed concrete.

• Series casting applications.

• Concrete requiring impermeability.

• Precast and prefabricated concrete production.

• Self-compacting concrete (SCC) production.

Properties / Advantages

• Provides significant increases in both early and final strength.

• High water reduction in the concrete mix.

• Long-term consistency retention.

• Provides self-compacting properties.

• Enables the production of smooth and bubble-free surfaces.

• Improves impermeability of concrete due to low water/cement ratio.

• Reduces curing time and temperature in precast element production, providing energy savings.

• Increases concrete's resistance to freeze-thaw cycles and temperature variations.

• Improves mechanical properties such as shrinkage and creep.

• Facilitates easier placement and faster strength gain, saving labor and enabling earlier form removal/turnover.

• Eases concrete pumping.

Dosage

• For flowing and self-compacting concretes: It is recommended to use between 0.4 – 2.0 kg per 100 kg of binder (cement-microsilica-fly ash).
• The dosage of the additive may vary depending on aggregate properties, concrete grade, water/cement ratio, water quality, and ambient temperature. Therefore, it is recommended to perform preliminary trial mixes in the laboratory.
• During consistency adjustment, the high water-reduction capacity of the additive should be considered, and excessive water should be avoided in the mix.
