MasterGlenium 114S - New polycarboxylic ether superplasticizer for the production of high quality ready-mix concrete with low water cement ratio and exceptional workability
What is MasterGlenium 114S?
MasterGlenium 114S is an innovative latest
generation superplasticizer based on
polycarboxylic ether (PCE) polymers and is
specially engineered for ready-mix concrete.
MasterGlenium 114S is differentiated from
conventional superplasticisers, such as those
based on sulphonated melamine and naphthalene
formaldehyde condesates in that it is based on a
unique carboxylic ether polymer with long lateral
chains. This greatly improves cement dispersion.
At the start of the mixing process the same
electrostatic dispersion occurs but the presence
of the lateral chains, linked to the polymer
backbone, generate a steric hindrance which
stabilises the cement particles capacity to
separate and disperse.
This mechanism provides flowable concrete with
greatly reduced water demand.
What is MasterGlenium 114S used for?
MasterGlenium 114S is used for the production
of high quality ready-mix concrete.
MasterGlenium 114S may be used in
combination with MasterMatrix for producing
Smart Dynamic Concrete (SDC). The technology
produces advanced self compacting concrete,
without the aid of vibration. For economic,
ecological and ergonomic ready-mix / precast
concrete production.
What are the benefits of MasterGlenium 114S?
MasterGlenium 114S offers the following
