PC-L ASTM C 494

 

PC-L is a high performance, 100% poly-carboxylate based polymer, specifically developed as an effective dispersant, fluidifier and high range water reducing agent for concrete and other mineral materials. PC-L is a neutral concentrate grade, it is mainly used as a raw material to produce different types of high performance water reducers for targeted industrial. It complies with ASTM C 494, Type F specifications.

 

Uses:

PC-L is a plant-added superplasticizer that is formulated to impart improved workability to the concrete and to achieve high early compressive strength as required by the precast industry. 

PC-L can be applied in a wide variety industry, such as the production of self-consolidating concrete in precast industry, conventional concrete production industry even with low water/cement ratios while maintaining normal levels of workability and so on.

 

Advantages: 

1. Produces concrete with high levels of workability without segregation. 

2. Provides significantly higher strengths and normal set time. 

3. Has excellent concrete rheology and handling properties. 

4. Provides improved finish ability and surface finishes. 

5. Has superior air entrainment control. 

6. Provides standard water reduction at normal addition rates and significant water reduction at higher addition rates. 

7. Has no chloride ions and non-corrosion to steel bar. 

8. Improves the frost resistance and carbonation resistance of the concrete. Lower drying shrinkage of the concrete by 20% or more compared to naphthalene-based admixture.
