MasterGlenium SKY 8885

New Generation High Range Water Reducing Admixture with SURETEC for Premix and Precast

How Does MasterGlenium SKY 8885 Work?

MasterGlenium SKY 8885 is a uniquely formulated, latest generation high range water reducer with super retention technology. It contains polycarboxylate ether polymers combined with SURETEC polymers, ideal for ready-mixed and precast concrete where slump retention, improved rheology, durability, high early and ultimate strength are required. The degree of slump retention depends on ambient temperature, mix design, and dose rate.

Recommended Uses:
  • Slump retaining and super slump retaining concrete

  • Faster mixing logistics during large jobs

  • High flowability concrete

  • Concrete that requires improved surface finish

  • Ready-mixed and premixed concrete

  • High strength/ultra-high strength concrete

  • Super workable concrete/self-consolidating concrete

  • High performance concrete with high durability

  • Pumped concrete

  • Piling mixes

  • Pre-stressed and post-tensioned concrete

  • High quality precast products (e.g., beams, columns, etc.)

What Makes MasterGlenium SKY 8885 a Unique Solution?

A unique combination of dispersion and steric hindrance effect makes MasterGlenium SKY 8885 an ideal high dispersant superplasticizer for the ready-mixed and precast concrete industries. The ability to work with low water/cement ratios while still obtaining extended slump retention allows for the manufacture of high-quality concrete.

What Are the Benefits of MasterGlenium SKY 8885?
  • High range water reduction leading to high early and ultimate strengths

  • Low permeability and high durability concrete

  • High flowability for ease of placing and compaction without segregation

  • Superior slump retention (> 3 hours) with no need for re-tempering, and ease of delivery to the point of placement can be achieved with the addition of the Master Builders Solutions admixture MasterSure 1008

  • Low shrinkage and creep for improved dimensional stability and reduced risk of cracks

  • Good cohesion for ease of pumping

  • Good rheology for excellent surface finish

  • Suitable for use with super workable concrete/self-consolidating concrete

  • Excellent bleed profile ensuring the highest concrete quality

  • High elastic modulus providing superior load-bearing capacity

  • Ideal for supplementary cementitious materials for achieving "Green Star" rating
