Introduction To Concrete Admixture Varieties

3.1 Water reducing agent
Ordinary water-reducing admixture
An admixture that can reduce mixing water consumption under the condition that the slump of concrete is basically the same. Commonly used water reducing agents are anionic surfactants.
High-efficiency water reducing agent superplasticizer
This admixture can significantly reduce the amount of mixing water when the slump of concrete is basically the same.
set retarding and water-reducing admixture
An admixture with both retarding and water-reducing functions.
Hardening accelerating and water reducing admixture
An admixture with both early strengthening and water reducing functions.
air entraining and water reducing admixture
An admixture with both air-entraining and water-reducing functions.
3.2 Morning strength agent
Hardening Accelerating Admixture
An admixture that improves the early strength of concrete and has no significant impact on later strength.
3.3 Retarder
set retarder
Admixtures that extend the setting time of concrete.
3.4 Air entraining agent
air entraining admixture
In the process of mixing concrete, admixtures can introduce a large number of evenly distributed, stable and closed micro-bubbles.
3.5 Waterproofing agent
Water repellent admixture
An admixture that reduces the water permeability of concrete under hydrostatic pressure.
3.6 Rust inhibitor
anti-corrosion admixture
An admixture that can inhibit or reduce the corrosion of steel bars or other embedded metals in concrete.
3.7 Air entraining agent
gas forming admixture
During the concrete preparation process, chemical reactions occur and gases are released, resulting in the formation of a large number of pores in the concrete.
3.8 Expansion agent
expanding admixture
Admixtures that compensate for the shrinkage of concrete.
3.9 Antifreeze
Anti-freezing admixture
An admixture that can harden concrete at negative temperatures and achieve sufficient anti-freeze and strength within a specified time.
3.10 Colorants
coloring admixture
It can prepare admixtures with stable color concrete.
3.11 Accelerating setting agent
accelerating setting admixture
An admixture that can quickly set and harden concrete.
3.12 Pumping agent
pumping aid pumping aid
An admixture that improves the pumping properties of concrete mixtures. The materials used to make pumping agents include high-efficiency water reducing agents, retarders, air-entraining agents and thickeners.
3.13 Concrete viscosity reducer
Concrete viscosity reducer is an admixture that can significantly reduce the viscosity coefficient of concrete. It reduces the viscosity of concrete by adding air-entraining agents, water-reducing agents and some mineral admixtures (fly ash and microbeads).
