New Generation Super Slump Retaining Aid for Extended Slump Retention
How Does MasterSure 1008 Work?
MasterSure 1008 is an innovative new-generation polycarboxylate ether-based slump retaining aid with super retention technology. Additionally, it can help the ready-mixed / precast concrete industries, where more than normal slump retention and durability are required, particularly in hot climates.
Recommended Uses:
Super slump retaining concrete with equal or less water content than conventional admixtures
Faster mixing aids logistics during large pours
Highly flowable concrete
Highly durable concrete
Ready-mixed concrete
Precast concrete
Mass concrete
Long distance transport
Pumped concrete
Hot weather concreting
What Are the Unique Features of MasterSure 1008?
MasterSure 1008 is a specifically tailored, stand-alone product, the constituents of its active ingredient exhibiting unique adsorption characteristics to cement. The excellent dispersion effect makes MasterSure 1008 the ideal aid for the ready-mixed concrete / precast concrete industry, without affecting concrete setting times. The ability to work over a range of water binder ratios including low w/b ratios and still obtain extended slump retention allows for the manufacture of high-quality concrete.
