Acomix Super 1S

Concrete Water Reducing Superplasticizer

Product Description

Acomix Super 1S is a high-range water-reducing concrete admixture that is far more powerful than ordinary reducing aids. This super-plasticizer greatly reduces the amount of water normally required to impart workability to a concrete mix. SUPER 1S does not contain any chloride. Acomix SUPER 1S meets the following specifications: ASTM C494 Type F & BS 5075 Part 3 (1985)

Features and Benefits

Acomix Super 1S imparts the following benefits to concrete producers:

  • Permits lowering of water-cement ratio

  • Quicker and easier mix placement

  • Increased early and ultimate compressive strength from water reduction

  • Enables lowering of cement content while maintaining strength

  • Allows quicker mold turnover time for precasters

  • Minimizes energy required for curing

  • Improves finish of cast concrete by minimizing honeycombed surface

Safety Precautions

  • Rubber gloves should be worn when handling Acomix Super 1S. Avoid contact with eyes and prolonged contact with skin. In case of contact, flush eyes with plenty of clean water for at least 10 minutes and get prompt medical attention; wash skin thoroughly with soap and water

  •  Keep out of reach of children

Uses

Precast / Prestressed

  • Through proper mix design, precast producers cut cement consumption while simultaneously increasing high early strength to cut mold cycle time thus reducing fuel consumption
     

  • Prestressed concrete producers using Acomix Super 1S formulate very high early and ultimate strength mix designs for earlier distressing of prestressed members and rapid mold stripping. Both precast and prestressed producers use Acomix Super 1S to formulate water-reduced concrete with 25% less water producing no loss in slump and up to 40% increase in compressive strength in 24 hours
     

  • The plasticity Acomix Super 1S imparts to a concrete mix produces a very even flow during form filling. When the forms are stripped away, the concrete appears smoother than a standard mix with fewer cavities that create a honeycombed finish

Ready Mix

  • In ready mix applications, Acomix Super 1S improves flow while the concrete remains cohesive and retains its water-cement ratio without bleeding, segregation, or strength reduction
     

  • Acomix Super 1S can covert 3 inch slump concrete into 8 inch slump high-flow concrete with no loss of strength. Concrete with Acomix Super 1S minimizes the work required for placement in closely spaced areas, large bay areas, floor slabs, roof decks, and similar structures

Dosage

Acomix Super 1S ranges of super-plasticizers are used at the dosage of 800 ml to 2000 ml per 100 kg of cement. It is recommended that initial trials be carried out to determine the optimum dosage required

Directions For Use

The dosage of Acomix Super 1S is based on the cement content of the concrete mix. In most cases a 25% water reduction can be obtained with 1.80% of Acomix Super 1S:

  • To obtain maximum advantages of Acomix Super 1S, the concrete mix should be redesigned and tested by normal trial batch procedures. A low slump can be corrected by increasing the level of Acomix Super 1S content rather than by adding more water. This will establish the most effective level of Acomix Super 1S for the highest possible strength
     

  • For best results, Acomix Super 1S should be added to the concrete mix two minutes prior to pouring. Mixing periods of 1 to 2 minutes will be sufficient for efficient mixers, 5 to 7 minutes for the average truck mixing
