Ecocrete XP Technical Data

Description

A highly effective dual action liquid super-plasticizer for the production of free-flowing concrete or as a substantial water-reducing agent for promoting high, early and ultimate strengths. Chloride free.

Uses

Ecocrete XP as a super-plasticizer for flowing concrete in:

• Slabs and foundations

• Walls, columns and piers

• Slender components with densely packed reinforcement

• Textures surface finishes

Ecocrete XP as a water-reducing agent for high early strength concrete in:

• Pre-cast concrete elements

• Pre-stressed concrete

• Bridges and cantilever structures

• Areas of concrete where formwork must be removed quickly or early

• loading is applied.

Dosage

0.5 – 3.0% by weight of cement. Exact dosage rates are dependent on the type of effect sought, quality of cement and aggregates, water/cement ratio and ambient temperature. It is advisable to carry out trial mixes.

Dispensing

Ecocrete XP can be added to the mixing water prior to its addition to the aggregates or as in most cases, it can be added directly to the freshly mixed concrete. When added directly to the freshly mixed concrete, the plasticizing effect is more pronounced. For ready-mix concrete, Ecocrete XP is added to the concrete immediately prior to discharge and after further mixing has taken place for three minutes.

Health and Safety

Ecocrete XP is generally safe to use provided certain precautions normally taken when handling chemicals are observed. Avoid skin contact, wear gloves and necessary goggles if splashing of the product may be found. In the event of contamination, wash thoroughly with clean water. If the eyes or mouth are affected, wash with clean water immediately and obtain medical assistance if symptoms persist. For further information, consult Econtech, Inc.

Compatibility

Ecocrete XP is compatible with all types of portland cement including SRC. Ecocrete XP is compatible in concrete with all known admixture types currently available, but must be added separately to the mix and not pre-mixed prior to addition.

Example of Use

Extensive investigations have been carried out in our own Concrete Laboratory at various sites, ready-mixed concrete plants and pre-cast concrete works, using average concrete mixes or normal production mixes. The example quotes is representative of the results obtained and is intended to illustrate the application of Ecocrete XP. It will be realized that general trends only can be indicated, which may act as guides for other mix trials.
