DESCRIPTION
ABAQUICK-AFP is a non-alkaline accelerator of water-cement reaction. It can be used for dry mix shotcrete. It is controlled based on: ASTM C1141, ASTM C1398
Method
DOSAGE
The optimum dosage of ABAPLAST SR-290 may depend on concrete mix design (sizes and types of aggregates, cement content, water/cement ratio and ambient conditions) and is determined by trials. A dosage of 0.3-1 percent by weight of cement or cementitious material is recommended.
Properties
ADVANTAGES
