POLYHEED® 844R  

POLYHEED 897 is a multi-component, chloride free, mid-range water-reducing admixture, formulated to produce: .
  • A mid range water reduction (5 a 15%) and excellent performance through a wide range
  • Increase of setting time throughout the long range of recommended dosage
  • Improved workability,  pumpability and finishability, even in concrete mixes containing reduced amount of cementitious materials and/or concrete mixes containing fly ashes.
  • Comparable compressive strength development of that of water-reducing and retarding admixtures
  • Better performance with wide range types of cements, fly ashes, slags and aggregates
  • POLYHEED 897 admixture meets ASTM C 494 for Type A retarding admixtures, for Type B water-reducing admixture and for Type D water-reducing and retarding admixtures.

FEATURES

  • Reduces water content for a given slump
  • Improved time setting features
  • Increased development of compressive and flexural strengths

BENEFITS

POLYHEED 897 helps produce a quality concrete with the following special benefits:

  • • Superior workability and pumpability in worm weather applications
  • • Reduced bleeding and slump
  • • Improves finishability in flat, formed or extruded surfaces.
  • • Consistent performance in concrete mixes with low, mid-range of 150 to 200mm and high concrete slumps.
