PC-6A Polycarboxylic Superplastic concrete agent - PC-6A

Product Description PC-6A is a new type Superplasticizer developed primarily for applying in hot climate area. It contains polycarboxylate ether polymers as well as performs outstanding high water reduction and significantly reduces slump loss. With the design for the need to improve the initial compression strength and ultimate compression strength,PC-6A is applying as follows :

Concrete which contain less water content than conventional additive

The concrete which must fast mixing logistics during large project

High flowability concrete

Highly durable concrete

Ready-mixed concrete

Mass concrete

Long distance transport concrete

Pumped concrete

Hot weather pouring concrete

Self compacted concrete

Main Properties and Characteristics

StandardsPC-6A is free of chloride and has been formulated to comply with ASTM C494 for Type A&F admixtures, BS5075 for high range water-reducing admixtures and JIA A6204 concrete. Also, PC-6A is complying with BSEN 934-2 Tables 3.1 & Tables 3.2,Chinese state Standard GB- 8076-97 and Chinese Construct Standards JG/T 223-2007.It is compatible with all Portland cements that meet recognized international standards.
Technical data

Typical performancePC-6A improves initial and ultimate strength. It also improves superior compression performance and workability of the concrete more than traditional superplasticizer. Its high water reducing rate savings of cement used amounted to 25% -40%.
CompatibilityDo not use other water reducing materials and /or superplasticizer in the mix with PC-6A
Application Adding MethodPC-6A is a kind of concrete agent, which can be added directly with water or water-added. The time of adding PC-6A to the dry concrete mix is not less than 100 seconds. A separate dispenser and feed line must be used in order to make the concrete reach the best property and the most water-reducing effect. Consider PC-6A is one kind mother liquild admixture with high solid content, so we advise that the user dilute it into working liquild dilution with solid content of 15%--25% before mixing construction.
DosageIn order to meet specific requirements, PC-6A addition rate should be determined according to the materials and the conditions of the experiments and the water-reducing request. The scope of the PC-6A addition rate is from 0.3 liter to 1.5 liter/100 kg cement materials. Other dosages may also depend on the specific working conditions. If over dosed, it will lead to delay the coagulating time.
PackingPC-6A is available in 200 liter/ drum or1000 liter/drum.
Shelf life PC-6A can be stored for 12 months if temperature is 2°C-50°C, in sealed original drums. If appear frozen, thaw it and reconstitute by stirring before use.
PrecautionsHealth: PC-6A does not contain any hazardous substances requiring labeling. It is safe for use with standard precautions followed in the construction industry, such as use of hand gloves, safety goggles, etc. PC-6A is water-based product and noncombustible. No corrosion to steel.
