RAKSHAK ACCELETOER

FEATURES

  • Accelerates initial set time one to three times faster than normal concrete and mortar.
  • Aids in strength development.
  • Speeds up hydration of cement.
  • Increases workability of concrete or mortar mix in colder temperatures.
  • Speeds construction due to reduced setting and curing time.
  • Allows earlier removal of concrete forms or other protection.
  • Permits earlier finishing.

Product Description

A accelerator is an admixture for the use in concrete, mortar, rendering or screeds. The addition of an accelerator speeds the setting time and thus cure time starts earlier. This allows concrete to be placed in winter with reduced risk of frost damage.

It improves workability and strength while hastening the hydration of cement. It makes the mix easier to place and speeds construction by shortening the initial set and curing time. Time and labor are saved because forms and other protection can be removed earlier and finishing can be started.

USES
It is recommended for use during cool and cold weather to accelerate the set time and reduce the risk of frozen mortar and concrete mixes. However, It can be used any time you want to accelerate the set time to decrease turnaround time.

APPLICATION
It is added directly to the mix water. Reduce the amount of water by 5 – 7% to compensate for the liquid addition. For mortar cements that are 50% Portland cement and 50% lime, one-half the amount 950 ml of Rakshak ACC required.
