Batimix WR 102-S

Water reducer with improved slump retention for concrete

Description

BATIMIX WR 102-S is a liquid water-reducing admixture for concrete. It is based on high-grade lignosulphonate materials blended with selected chemicals to improve slump retention over time.

Main Purpose

BATIMIX WR 102-S is designed to improve concrete workability and/or allow an effective reduction in the free water content. It disperses the fine cementitious particles in the concrete mix, enabling the mixing water to perform more effectively and improve the concrete consistency.

BATIMIX WR 102-S is particularly suitable for use in hot weather conditions where a delayed set will provide sufficient time for delivery, placement, and finishing operations. Applications include all types of concrete castings such as plain, reinforced, precast, ready-mixed, lightweight, and pumped.

Features

Concrete prepared with BATIMIX WR 102-S is characterized by the following:

In the plastic state:

• Improved workability without adding extra water
• Reduced water content up to 15% with minimum secondary effects
• Increased homogeneity with minimum segregation and bleeding
• Better slump retention over time, relevant for hot weather concreting

In the hardened state:

• Increased strengths – compressive, flexural, and bonding
• Reduced shrinkage, creep, and water- permeability
• Enhanced concrete durability and surface- appearance

Dosage

0.2% to 1.4% of the cementitious materials

Color

brown liquid

Available Packages

• Bulk
• 200 kg drum

Health and Safety

BATIMIX WR 102-S is not a hazardous material. However, it should not be swallowed or allowed to come into contact with skin and eyes. Suitable gloves and goggles should be worn. For additional information, kindly refer to the product’s Material Safety Data Sheet.
