RSA-10 is specially formulated for use as an air entraining admixture for concrete. RSA-10 is manufactured under strict quality control standards to insure uniform performance at the job site.

ADVANTAGES:

RSA-10 introduces millions of uniformly sized and spaced air voids throughout the concrete mixture. Concrete containing these tiny, extremely stable air bubbles has been proven far more resistant to freezing and thawing than plain concrete. RSA-10 in hardened concrete reduces permeability and enhances the resistance to surface deterioration caused by de-icing chemicals. Concrete containing RSA-10 requires less water, therefore bleeding is reduced. RSA-10 aids in finishing and produces a more water tight concrete with a lower water-cement ratio. The air bubbles act as "Ball-Bearings" to greatly improve the plasticity and workability of the concrete, making it easier to flow into forms or be pumped into place. Concrete mixes designed using RSA-10 result in a reduction of segregation and honeycombing with smoother and more even finished surfaces.

USES:

RSA-10 may be used wherever air entrainment is required by concrete specifications. It is particularly useful in:
