Low-clinker, reduced CO2 technology
Low-clinker, reduced-CO2 admixture solutions are essential for onshore wind turbine foundations due to their significant environmental, economic, and performance benefits. They reduce the carbon footprint of concrete, enhance durability and workability, provide cost savings, and support sustainability goals.
As the construction industry moves towards more sustainable practices, these admixtures will play a critical role in the development of renewable energy infrastructure, ensuring that wind turbine foundations are not only strong and durable but also environmentally responsible.
How does MasterCO2re work ?
MasterCO2re concrete admixtures are based on an Intelligent Cluster System (ICS) which releases its dispersing effect over time. A part of the polymers is free and available in solution and is immediately used for the first dispersion and initial reduction of the water. The polymeric structures, combined in the different clusters, optimize the maintenance of the workability and the hydration reaction of the cement, adapting the polymer release mechanism to the different characteristics of both the cement matrix and the additional cementitious materials.
What makes MasterCO2re a unique solution?
MasterCO2re products , thanks to their exclusive mechanism of action, offer the following benefits:
Superior workability and excellent rheology even at high temperatures, which allow easy pumping and placing of concrete;
They allow the clinker content in pre-mixed and precast concrete to be significantly reduced, maintaining a low water/cement ratio which allows for high mechanical resistance to compression.
The revolutionary solution from Master Builders Solutions becomes a valid contribution that allows the performance limits of a low clinker content concrete to be overcome, allowing the use of high volumes of additional cementitious materials, while safeguarding a high quality of the concrete.
