Product type
Air entraining admixtures are chemical additives used in concrete and mortar to create tiny air bubbles within the mix. These bubbles improve the workability and durability of the concrete by providing space for water to expand during freezing and thawing cycles. Typically made from surfactants, these admixtures help enhance the performance of concrete in various environmental conditions.
| Chemical composition | Surfactants and stabilizers |
| Typical dosage | 0.1% to 5% by weight of cement |
| Air content | 3% to 8% in the finished mix |
| Compatibility | Compatible with most types of Portland cement |
| Form | Liquid or powder |
When selecting air entraining admixtures, consider the specific requirements of your project, such as the desired air content and environmental conditions. It's important to specify the type of cement being used, as well as any relevant standards or certifications. Additionally, provide information on the quantity needed, as this can affect the pricing and availability of the admixture.
