CX SUPERCONCRETE P+ 650
CX SUPERCONCRETE P+650 is blend of organic polymers and is supplied as a Light Yellowbrown liquid instantly dispersible in water.
CX SUPERCONCRETE P+650 has been specially formulated to give high water reductions up to 25%to 35% without loss of workability or to produce high quality concrete of reduced permeability.
- To produce pump able concrete
- To increase workability without extra water
- To improve cohesion, minimizing segregation and give better finish

Advantages
Improved Workability
Easier, quicker placing and compaction
Increased quality
Denser, close textured concrete with reduced porosity and hence enhanced durability
Suitable Environment
Wide range of application when High or Low environment temperature
Increased Strength
Provides high early strength if water reduction is taken advantage of.
Higher cohesion
Risk of segregation and bleeding minimized; thus aids pumping of concrete
Better Resistance
Better Resistance to Carbonation
Properties
- Specific Density : ±1.08kg/l at 260C
- Chloride content : Nil
- Air entrainment : Approx. 1.5% additional air is entrained
- Compatibility : Can be used with all types of cements except high alumina cement. CX SUPERCONCRETE P+ 650 is compatible with other CHEMAX admixtures when added separately to the mix. Site trials should be carried out to optimize dosages
- Workability : Can be used to produce flowing concrete that requires no compaction. Some minor adjustments may be required to produce high workable mix without segregation.
- Cohesion : Cohesion is improved due to dispersion of cement particles thus minimizing segregation and improving surface finish.
- Compressive strength : Early strength is increased upto 40 to 50% if water reduction is taken advantage of. Generally, there is improvement in strength upto 20% depending upon W/C ratio and other mix parameters.
- Durability : Reduction in W/C ratio enables increase in density and impermeability thus enhancing durability of concrete.
- Standards follow : IS 9103-1999, ASTM C494
Application
- Dosage :The optimum dosage is best determined by site trials with the concrete mix which enables the effects of workability, strength gain or cement reduction to be measured. Site trials with CX SUPERCONCRETE P+ 650 should always be compared with mix containing no admixture. As a guide, the rate of addition is generally in the range of 0.5 - 1.5 % by weight of cement.
- Over dosing : An over dose above the recommended level of admixture may result in high workability, air entrainment and retardation of setting time depending on the ambient temperature of cure. As such, more than the recommended dosage may be used if necessary by ascertaining the performance in the lab trials only before using in actual site conditions.
- Dispensing : The correct quantity of CX SUPERCONCRETE P+ 650 should be used by means of a dispenser. The measured quantity of CX SUPERCONCRETE P+ 650 should be added along with the gauging water in case of batching plants. Alternatively, correct dosage should be used with about 20% of the total water in the last phase after the mix has been pre wetted.
- Packaging : CX SUPERCONCRETE P+ 650 is supplied in 50Kgs & 250Kgs drums.
- Storage : CX SUPERCONCRETE P+ 650 has a minimum shelf life of 12 months when stored under normal temperatures. It should be protected from extreme temperatures and preferably stored in shade.
- Health & Safety : CX SUPERCONCRETE P+ 650 is non-toxic. Any splashes on the skin should be washed immediately with water. Splashes to the eyes should be washed immediately with water and medical advice should be sought.
- Fire : CX SUPERCONCRETE P+ 650 is non flammable
