Cement Additives
Cement additives are materials that are added to the cement mixture before or during the mixing process in order to enhance or modify the properties of the resulting concrete. These materials can include things like plasticizers, superplasticizers, air-entraining agents, and pigments. They are used to improve the workability, strength, durability, and appearance of the concrete. Some examples of cement additives are fly ash, slag, silica fume, and metakaolin.
Fosroc Cement Additives
Fosroc is a leading provider of construction chemicals and building materials, including cement additives. They offer a range of products that are designed to improve the properties of concrete, such as strength, durability, and workability. Some examples of Fosroc cement additives include:
- Superplasticizers: These products increase the workability of concrete without increasing the water-to-cement ratio, which can lead to increased strength and durability.
- Air-entraining agents: These products help to improve the freeze-thaw resistance of concrete by creating microscopic air bubbles within the concrete matrix.
- Waterproofing: Fosroc offers a range of waterproofing products that can be added to concrete to improve its resistance to water penetration.
- Corrosion inhibitors: These products help to protect steel reinforcement in concrete structures from corrosion, which can extend the life of the structure.
- Grinding aids: These products help to increase the efficiency of the grinding process in cement production, which can lead to energy savings and improved cement quality.
Fosroc cement additives are compatible with all types of cements and can be used in various applications like ready-mix, precast, and in-situ construction.
