NOVASTAR Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer(PCE) Flake 590P
What Is a Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer?
A Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer is a high-performance chemical admixture used in concrete and mortar mixes. It improves their workability, strength, and durability. As one of the most advanced water-reducing agents, PCE superplasticizer reduces the water content in concrete while maintaining or enhancing its flowability. LANDU NOVASTAR Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer(PCE) Flake 590P offers exceptional benefits as follows:
- Low dosage, High Water Reduction Rate
- Good Dispersion
- Improved Workability
- Reduced Shrinkage and Cracking
- Enhanced Strength Development
What Makes Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer Flake Better Than Powder and Liquid?
Faster Dissolution Than Powder
Better Workability Retention Than Liquid
PCE Flake provides superior workability retention compared to liquid PCE, especially in demanding applications like long-distance transportation or pumping.
Higher Efficiency at Lower Dosages
Enhanced Compatibility
Better Storage and Handling
Consistent Dispersion
Comparison of Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer Flake, Powder and Liquid
| Feature | PCE Flake | PCE Powder | PCE Liquid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dissolution Rate | Faster and more uniform | Slower, may clump | Pre-dissolved |
| Workability Retention | Better retention over time | May experience slump loss | Moderate retention |
| Compatibility | High compatibility with SCMs and admixtures | Less consistent compatibility | Potential incompatibility issues |
| Efficiency | Higher efficiency at lower dosages | May require higher dosages | Often requires higher dosages |
| Storage and Handling | Easier to store and handle | Prone to clumping and moisture absorption | Risk of spills, shorter shelf life |
| Dispersion | More uniform and consistent | May result in localized variability | May settle or separate over time |
| Applications | Tailored for specific uses | More generic | General-purpose use |
Tailored Applications of NOVASTAR Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer Flake 590P
Premixed Concrete
- First of all, Flake PCE enhances the fluidity and pumpability of the concrete, making it easier to handle and place the concrete in large-scale structures. It also promotes faster hydration and early strength development, allowing for quicker formwork and reducing construction timelines.
- Ready-mixed concrete requires admixtures that can dissolve quickly and uniformly in the mixing process. NOVASTAR 590P Flake PCE dissolves faster and more completely in water, resulting in uniform workability and consistent quality in the final product.
High-Performance Concrete
Precast Concrete
NOVASTAR PCE Flake 590P offers excellent workability for precast concrete to fill complex molds and achieve dense, uniform sections without voids or honeycombing. It promotes rapid hydration and thus develops concrete strength in a shorter period. Additionally, precast concrete is often used for exposed surfaces. So it is helpful to use flake PCE to reduce surface defects like air voids or segregation.
