CATALOGUE » ANTI HYDRO-R
 

ANTI HYDRO-R is a unique formulation to be added while making cement concrete to increase workability, strength & durability. It is a combination of waterproofing cum retarder which when added reduces water requirement, bleed water & shrinkage. The increased chemical activity provides internal curing & produces much denser concrete resulting highly impermeable concrete. These combined reactions produces waterproof concrete & higher compressive strength with longer life for the structures.

ANTI HYDRO-R ease handling & transportation of concrete while improving workability, particulary in hot weather condition due to its slower rate of setting properties.

 
ADVANTAGES
 
• Increase the initial & final setting time for longer concrete handling.
• Improves the workability & flow properties without increasing water.
• Increase the slump even up to 180-200 mm. without loss of final strength.
Increase ultimate strength without addition of cement content thus cost effective.
Enhances life of R.C.C. / Mortar by reducing water permeability.
 
APPLICATIONS
 
• All kind of cement concrete mixing in tropical weather belt, for retardation.
• Ready mix concrete manufacturing units.
• Transportation of concrete to longer distance or delayed placing.
• Structural concrete at elevated temperature.
 
MIXING METHOD
 

It is supplied in ready to use form & should be pre mixed with gauging water
(Measured mixing water required for making wet concrete)
For best result, mix concrete for 3-5 minutes for homogenous and thorough mix.

 
PRECAUTION
 
• Do not use ANTI HYDRO-R directly in to the dry mix.
• The retardation of setting time depend upon the type of cement, mix design, prevailing ambient temperature etc.
• Hand mix should be avoided except for small quantity.
• Optimum dosage should be determined by site trial.
• Over dosing should always be avoided.
