PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer (PCE) is a water-soluble concrete additive used to reduce water to cement ratio without affecting the workability of the mixture. PCE increases protection from slumping, then increases the slump retention since cement loses workability with time. PCE increases the structure’s strength after construction. It also improves early-strength in concrete while simultaneously lowering water content and retaining the original workability level. In wider application, PCE can be used as an emulsifier and a surfactant.

It is easily formulated with various types of cement, effective for use at low doses, thereby increasing productivity and reducing costs.

    

 

BY APPLICATION

Construction

Superplasticizers are water-soluble organic substances that reduce the amount of water needed to achieve a certain concrete stability, reduce the water-cement ratio, and reduce cement consumption, increase slump and workability.
Produce high quality concrete, with low permeability (more impermeable to water).It can reduce water so that the water use becomes less, the distribution of cement particles in the fresh concrete mix becomes more optimal, which in turn produces the higher density concrete that can be more watertight. Construction for highways, railways, subways and tunnels. Also for self-compacting concrete, precast and pre-stressed concrete.

Gypsum Board

Superplasticizer can be used in the gypsum panel and plasterboard process. In mixing compound phase, a small amount of superplasticizer are used so that the slurry will flow during manufacture, and to reduce the water and hence the drying time.

Oil & Gas

Superplasticizer is used in pipe jacking method. Superplasticizer use is for water cut-off materials or durable and high resistance waterproofing membranes for shield tunneling method. PCE also can be added for mud withdrawal process to reduce viscosity and increase fluidity.

Synthetic Resin

Superplasticizers are used as a raw material in the production of emulsions, especially for waterproofing and cementitious applications.
