ROLE OF ADMIXTURES IN READYMIX CONCRETE

Chemical Admixtures



ASTM C 494



EN 934 – 2



IS 9103:2003

Chemical Admixtures Type

Description

A

Water Reducing admixture (WRA)

B

Retarding Admixture

C

Accelerating Admixture

D

Water Reducing & Retarding Admixture

E

Water Reducing & Accelerating Admixture

F

High Range Water Reducing Admixture (HRWRA)

G

High Range Water Reducing & Retarding Admix

Slump flow [cm]

Main effect of plasticizing admixtures

1

with Plasticizer 2

without Plasticizer Water/Cement Ratio

1

Higher workability at constant w/c ratio

2

Increase of strength parameters through reduction of w/c ratio at constant slump flow

Types of concrete admixtures 

Lignosulphonates – LS



Beta-Naphthalenesulphonate - Polycondensate – BNS



Melamine-Sulphonate-Poly-condensate – MFS



Poly Acrylates – PAC



Polycarboxylate Ethers - PCE

Traditional Plasticizers/Superplasticizers Mode of Action

Electrostatic Repulsion

PCE Molecule 

  

complex and flexible molecules, comprising of main chain Side chains functional groups.

PCE Based - GLENIUM Molecules

Electrostatic and Steric Repulsion GLENIUM molecules

Glenium Concrete

   

High grades Low Grades SCC Precast

Glenium Concrete for Higher Grades Why higher grades? (M45 – M 60)

   

Early destripping Advantages in column size reduction Longer spans and thinner decks PT slabs – 30 MPa in 3 days

General Practice for Higher Grade   

Use of Higher Cement contents Use of very low water /cement ratios Use of Expensive Mineral Admixtures

  

Phenomenal increase in costs Concrete very sensitive to changes in moisture content Extra cement content due to retention effect

Critical Areas

  

Use of higher cement content – Thermal Shrinkage Use of silica fume

– Risk of Plastic shrinkage

Use of low w/c ratio

– Higher dosage of SNF admixture – (retardation effect-plastic shrinkage)

 Higher cost of concrete!

Hydration Reactions

Glenium Concrete

How does Glenium Work?

GLENIUMTM molecules

Improved Dispersion due to electrostatic and steric repulsion ….low w/cm

Glenium Concrete GLENIUM helps in

 Excellent dispersion of binders  Better Hydration  Water reduction upto 40%  Reduction in Cement content  Lower risk to Thermal Shrinkage  High early strengths  Reduce/Eliminate SF  Reasonably lower w/c ratios

 Faster de-stripping possible  Economical concrete  Tolerant to changes in moisture content

Glenium Concrete for Lower Grades

Requirements in Lower Grade concrete  Early age strengths

     

Reduction in cement Addition of Fly ash Lower dosage of admixtures Extended retention – 2 to 3 hrs Avoid retempering of Concrete Tolerance to water (10 – 15 Litres)

Glenium Concrete GLENIUM helps in

 Excellent dispersion of binders  Better Hydration  Reduction in Cement content  Water reduction

 Early Strength gain  Addition of Flyash

 lower w/c ratios

 Economical concrete  Tolerant to changes in water content
