Auracast 405
Auracast 405 is a unique combination of new generation super plasticizer based on polycarboxilic ether polymer with long lateral chain. Electrostatic dispersion mechanism considerably reduces the water demand in flowable concrete. It is supplied as a light brown liquid, instantly dispersible in water.
Auracast 405 disperses the cement particles effectively in the concrete mix and hence exposes a larger surface area to the hydration process. This effect is used either to increase the strength or to produce high workability concrete or reduce cement content of concrete or to retard the setting time of concrete.
Main uses
Auracast 405 is a high performance super plasticizer suitable for precast concrete industry to obtain high early strength and moderate workability retentions are required.
Auracast 405 developed to use in:
- Moderate workability retention concrete.
- Suitable for Self-compacting concrete.
- High performance concrete.
- High early strength.
Advantages
Low viscosity admixture suitable for precast industry
Suitable for concrete having cement replacements and low water cement ratio
Provides high early strength without increase in cement content or reduction in workability. Ideal for precast concrete production
Reduce rate of workability loss normally associated with super plasticiser. Reduces shrinkage cracking because of lower water cement ratio. Makes the concrete water impermeable
- Better resistance to Carbonation
- Reduce Shrinkage and Creep
- Increased durability
