Sika® ViscoCrete®-7000 AE
High Range Water-Reducing and Retarding Admixture with enhanced workability retention
Sika® ViscoCrete®-7000 AE is a polycarboxylate based superplasticizer developed particularly for use in ready mixed concrete to give extended slump retention and high strength development of high specification grade concrete mixes.
Sika® ViscoCrete®-7000 AE is suitable for use in concrete mixes incorporating pozzolanic materials such as GGBS, PFA and microsilica.
Suitable for use in hot and tropical climatic conditions.
Sika® ViscoCrete®-7000 AE provides the following beneficial properties:
- Powerful plasticising action
- Production of workable concrete at low w/b ratio
- Improved shrinkage and creep characteristics
- Excellent flowability resulting in minimal placing and compacting efforts
- Slower rate of carbonation ingress
- Cost effective, structurally economic
- Higher ultimate strengths allows greater flexibility for engineers to design
- Reduced surface defects so improving aesthetic appearance
- Durable concrete
- Does not contain chlorides or other steel corrosion promoting ingredients
