Polykem Multifunctional Water Reducing Additive

Polykem is a multifunctional, chloride-free water-reducing admixture for use in ready-mixed concrete. It is specially developed for concretes produced with composite cement, resulting in increased final strength and less effect on retarding setting time.

Polykem additives are multifunctional water reducers added to concrete during its preparation, increasing the workability of the concrete and controlling slump during transport.

They provide high final strengths due to their high water-reducing effect and control over the initial hydration of the cement. Furthermore, the multifunctional Polykem is used to optimize cement consumption in concrete , improving its durability and properties in the plastic state.

Polykem is used as a multifunctional additive in concrete batching plants for the production of:

  • Pumped concrete ;

  • Conventional concrete;

  • Concrete walls;

  • Foundation and piles;

  • Slabs;

  • Floors;

  • Concrete pavement ;

  • Other types of concrete.

What are the advantages of using Polykem multifunctional water-reducing additives?

Polykem multifunctional water-reducing admixtures were developed to meet the needs of a wide range of composite cements with mineral additions. The main advantages of their use are listed below:

  • Water reduction of more than 12% in typical concrete mixes, resulting in increased compressive strength at 7 and 28 days;

  • Recommended for use as a line additive in batching plants and general infrastructure projects ;

  • It provides improved maintenance of the slump during transport;

  • Controlled grip , allowing for proper application with optimal productivity;

  • Wide dosage range allowing the production of various concrete families without the drawbacks of excessive setting delay ;

  • Chloride-free additive, eliminating any risk of corrosion of the reinforced concrete reinforcement due to the additive's influence;

  • Stability during storage without sediment formation or clogging of tank dispensers and valves.
