admixtures for self compacting concrete
Posted by ravi on December 4, 2006
I am a postgraduate student doing my thesis on self compacting concrete. could you suggest me the admixtures ( viscosity modifying, water reducing etc) suitable for achieving self compacting concrete.
There are many companies who supply viscosity modifiers and water reducers which help to make SCC.
“Sika Stabilizer 300 SCC” is Sika’s viscosity modifying admixture and “Sika Viscocrete 2100”, “Sika Viscocrete 4100” and “Sika Viscocrete 6100” are Sika’s Ultra high range water reducers for SCC based on polycarboxylate technology.
With a good mix design, one can produce an SCC with water reducers based on lignosulfonates and naphthalene products also.
