Can Mix Water Enhancer™ be used in concrete’s containing water loss agents, or super plasticizers?
(A) Yes. Water loss agents or water reducers often contain ingredients such as hydroxylated carboxylic acid or lignosulphonic acid, while super-plasticizers may contain sulphonated formaldehyde condensates. Neither of these agents are necessary if utilizing Mix Water Enhancer™. Mix Water Enhancer™ provides ail of the desired benefits of water loss agents, water reducers, or super-plasticizers without the undesirable effects. Instead of discouraging mix water absorption by dry cement particles to lower mix water volume requirements, as do water reducers and superplasticizers, Mix Water Enhancer™ encourages absorption instead. Consequently, it utilizes more mix water volume instead of less, while at the same time utilizing; significantly higher percentages of the already included cement. This effectively raises concrete’s cementitious material content volume and results in concrete with low water-cement ratio performance values, or even better. Mix Water Enhancer™ provides concrete the d
