Concrete Admixtures & Accelerators
Concrete admixtures and accelerators are additives used in concrete mixtures to enhance their properties and performance. Admixtures are added to the concrete to improve workability, durability, or strength. They can include water reducers, plasticizers, air-entraining agents, and superplasticizers.
Accelerators are used to speed up the curing and setting time of concrete, which is particularly useful in cold weather or when a faster construction pace is needed. These additives enable the customization of concrete mixes to meet specific project requirements, ensuring that the resulting concrete is of high quality, durable, and suited to the demands of the construction project.
We have concrete admixtures and accelerators available in both liquid and powder forms, catering to various construction needs. Our products maintain a nominal rebound percentage and excellent slump retention characteristics.
We provide concrete solutions for different grades, including specialized ones like M-60 grade concrete. Notably, we supplied M-60 grade concrete to important national projects such as the Melamchi and Sunkoshi Marine Diversion Projects. This exclusive offering sets us apart as the sole provider of such high-grade concrete solutions.
Microsilica
Microsilica is primarily used as an admixture in concrete to improve its strength, durability, and other properties. It reduces porosity, increases compressive strength, and enhances resistance to chemical attack and abrasion. Microsilica is commonly used in high-performance and specialty concrete mixes, such as those used in bridges, high-rise buildings, and marine structures. Additionally, Microsilica is used in shotcrete applications (sprayed concrete) to improve the performance of the material.
We offer 92 grade MicroSilica powder, the very best quality available in the current market, which has been lab tested by reputed private labs to attest to the quality and the grade.
Armix EmmeCrete
Armix Emmecrete SP 111 is supplied as a brown liquid instantly dispersible in water Armix SP 111 has been specially formulated to give high water reductions up to 20% without loss of workability or to produce high quality concrete of reduced permeability.
- Suitable for high performance concrete
- Produces pumpable concrete
- Increases workability without extra water
- Improves cohesion, minimises segregation and gives better finish.
Benefits:
- Improved workability – Easier, quicker placing and compaction.
- Increased strength – Provides high early strength if water reduction is taken advantage of.
- Increased quality – Denser, close textured concrete with reduced porosity and hence enhanced durability.
- Higher cohesion – Risk of segregation and bleeding minimized; thus aids pumping of concrete
