MasterPolyheed 1855

Mid-Range Water-Reducing Admixture

How does MasterPolyheed 1855 work?

MasterPolyheed 1855 is a mid-range water-reducing admixture formulated with next-generation polycarboxylate technology. By leveraging state-of-the art molecular engineering, it enhances concrete performance and delivers significant value for both concrete producers and contractors. MasterPolyheed 1855 admixture is designed to meet ASTM C 494/C 494M requirements for Type A, water-reducing, and Type F, high-range water- reducing admixtures.

Recommended uses:

  • All concrete applications where superior workability, pumpability and finishability qualities are desired, in particular, flatwork, pumped concrete and pervious concrete

  • Concrete containing ordinary portland cement (OPC), portland limestone cement (PLC) (Type IL/ GUL), manufactured sand, and harsh concrete mixtures

What are the unique features of MasterPolyheed 1855?
  • Reduced water content for a given level of workability

  • Excellent performance across a wide concrete slump range

  • Superior concrete workability, pumpability and finishability qualities

  • Enhanced performance even in concrete mixtures containing portland-limestone cement
    (Type IL/GUL cement), manufactured sand and low amounts of cementitious materials

How does MasterPolyheed 1855 benefit users?
  • Reduced labor costs for concrete placement and finishing

  • Lower in-place concrete costs

  • Enhanced concrete durability

  • Increased service life of concrete structures

  • Consistent air level development in both air-entrained and non-air-entrained mixes

  • Greater batch-to-batch consistency
