Water-reducing and plasticizing admixture for summer season
Ready-Mix Concrete Admixtures
Features
EKAN® SMART 2015-S is a mid-range water-reducing plasticizer with set-retarding properties.
EKAN® SMART 2015-S is used in various climatic conditions when homogeneity, pumpability, and workability of concrete are desired. It facilitates easy placement of concrete while improving its mechanical properties.
Furthermore, EKAN® SMART 2015-S contributes to the impermeability of concrete to a certain extent by reducing the water/cement ratio.
Instructions for use
Areas of use
- All types of cement (except aluminous cement)
- Ready-mix concrete
- Reinforced concrete
- Non-reinforced concrete
- Pumped concrete
Application
Dosage: 0.5 kg – 1.5 kg per 100 kg of cement. The recommended dosage is 1.2% of cement.
EKAN® SMART 2015 S is completely soluble in water. It is recommended to add the admixture to the mixing water before mixing the concrete.
The optimal dosage of EKAN® SMART 2015 S should be established after local testing of the desired mechanical properties of the cement and the workability of the mix.
