StenMix® HIPA 87 is a polycarboxylic ether (PC) based, high-range water-reducing, high-performance superplasticizing concrete admixture. It conforms to the requirements of EN 934-2 Table 3 and ASTM C 494 Type F.
Areas of Use
StenMix® HIPA 87 creates a void-free, smooth-surfaced concrete mass in densely reinforced foundation, wall and column concrete that requires flowable concrete.
It can be used in high-strength precast and prefabricated concrete production and pre-stressed concrete applications, as well as in work requiring early formwork removal. Added to ready-mix concrete, it provides excellent workability.
Features & Advantages
- Provides high-range water reduction to create a void-free, smooth-surfaced concrete mass
- Maintains workability for a long time thanks to its slump-retention property
- Reduces the risk of segregation and lowers the vibration required
- Does not significantly retard setting and allows the concrete to set in normal time
- Increases impermeability by reducing mixing water
- Reduces the water requirement of concrete by 15-30% at the appropriate dosage
