Besides those mentioned above, we have a broad range of speciality products that enhance concrete specifications and performance.

1. FC-SNPLAST are Sulphonated Naphthalene Formaldehyde (SNF) based plasticizing / Super Plasticizing Concrete and mortar Admixtures (ASTM C494: Type A, F and G). They are to be used where a high degree of workability is required and also as an aid to workability retention where delays in transportation or placing are likely or when high ambient temperatures cause rapid slump loss. To facilitate the production of high-quality concrete with improved durability and water tightness. To produce high workability concrete requiring little or no vibration during placing.
   
   
2. FC-CONSET RP is a retarding (ASTM C494: Type D) admixture have a unique dual function of improvement workability and delay in the initial set of concrete mixes. This improvement can be utilised to provide increased strength, density and workability without an increase in cement, whilst retardation of setting times enables avoidance of ‘cold joints’ where delays in transporting and placing concrete occurs. Uses: Towers, chimneys, high buildings, slip-form structures, tunnel/ shaft lining, offshore construction and in-situ piles.

5. FC-CONSET SR is a medium viscosity liquid retarder used for achieving an exposed aggregate finish on concrete by retarding the setting of cement paste in the surface matrix of concrete and then removing it. The surface retarder is applied on the formwork or sprayed on the freshly poured concrete surfaces to effect the retardation of the cementitious paste in the top surface layer.
   
   
6. FC-CONSET NCA is ready to use liquid accelerating admixture in concrete and portland cement. It generally reduces setting times and especially under cold weather, leading to early high and ultimately increased strengths. In addition, it reduces bleed and segregation while improving workability. FC-CONSET NCA does not contain any added chloride ions, ensuring that the product does not contribute to the corrosion of reinforcing steel. Studies indicate FC-CONSET NCA helps in the reduction of chloride attacks on concrete.
   
   
7. C-CONSET CA is a Chloride based Accelerating admixture (Rapid Hardening admixture) for unreinforced cement concrete/mortar. When added to cementitious mixes, it accelerates hydration and enables the water content to perform more efficiently by dispersing agglomerated cement particles. This further improves strength by enabling water reduction to be made at constant workability. This is not recommended for reinforced cement concrete/mortar.
   
   
8. FC-PLAST AEA is an entraining admixture for concrete and mortar. It adsorbs at the interface between the mixing water and cement/aggregate particles to produce microscopic air bubbles, which evenly distribute throughout the concrete/mortar matrix.
   
   
9. Application

• • Improves cohesion and workability of concrete mixes having poorly graded and/or shaped aggregates
  • Reduces bleeding and segregation of concrete.
  • Enhances durability by protecting the rapid temperature changes found in freezing and thawing conditions and with the use of de-icing salts
    
    

1. FC-PLAST UW is a chloride-free, ready-to-use liquid anti-washout admixture system specially designed to allow concrete to be placed underwater.
   
   
2. Application
   
   
3. It produces a gel in the water that surrounds the cement particles and protects them from washout. It also increases the cohesion of concrete mixes and produces well-compacted and high-quality concrete.
   
   
4. FC-PLAST UW is a chloride-free, ready-to-use liquid anti-washout admixture system specially designed to allow concrete to be placed underwater.
   
   
5. Uses
   
   
6. It produces a gel in the water which surrounds the cement particles, protects them from washout, increases the cohesion of concrete mixes, and makes well-compacted and high-quality concrete.
   
   
7. FC-PLAST GA(P) is a powder additive, when mixed with a cementitious system, imparts shrinkage compensation and high flowability, pumpability to the mix. It produces controlled expansion and minimises water demand.
