Can Xypex Admix be Used in Concrete Containing Fly Ash, Micro-Silica or Slag Cement?

0

Yes. Xypex Admix is very effective when used in modern mix designs that incorporate cementitious replacement materials i.e. fly ash, silica fume and blast furnace slag. The reactions that take place to form the crystalline structure are very complex. During the cement hydration process, Xypexs active chemicals not only react with calcium hydroxide and unhydrated cement particles but also with various metal oxides and mineral salts, regardless of the cement type used. Consult with a Xypex representative to determine dosage rates for such blended cement mix designs.
