LC-500
LC-500 is a normal setting water-reducing admixture for concrete. It is designed to facilitate the placing and finishing of concrete while providing control over set time. LC-500 is also a set retarding admixture beneficial during hot weather concreting operations when control of setting time and maintenance of placeable consistency are essential.
ADVANTAGES:
* Improves the quality of concrete by decreasing water-cementitious ratio
* Increases strengths both compressive and flexural
* Increases density and relative durability
* Reduces damage caused by freezing and thawing
* Reduces water content needed for a given workability
* Reduces surface bleeding
* Reduces cracking and shrinkage
* Reduces segregation
* Improves finishability and workability of concrete
* Improves pumpability of concrete
* Maintains slump life during extended mixing times
* Provides variable control of setting time based on dosage rate
* Reduces peak heat of hydration in mass concrete placements, consequently, reducing thermal cracking
* Helps prevent occurrence of cold joints during placement
* Lowers inventory costs at batch plant- one product performs dual purpose
