What is the difference between Ducon Concrete Admixture and other?
This is a mostly asked Faqs on our website. Ducon uses the world’s best German technology and raw materials. We customize our formulations to suit local weather and environmental conditions. Our in-house R&D and concrete lab drive our commitment to excellence.
What is the process of heat curing?
The thermal curing process involves thermosets, a class of polymer materials that undergo an irreversible chemical reaction. This reaction causes the polymer chains to cross-link, forming a rigid material. Manufacturers used this material in various early consumer products, including telephones and radio cabinets.
What is the difference between normal concrete and Admixtured concrete?
Admixtures in concrete serve various purposes, such as enhancing durability, workability, strength, hardness, early setting, delayed setting, and waterproofing. Without admixtures, modifying concrete becomes challenging.
What is the construction advantages of Ducon Concrete Admixture?
Increasing workability also improves the strength of concrete, ensures a strong bond between concrete and steel, and prevents issues like cracking, segregation, honeycombing, and bleeding.
How do Admixtures increase concrete strength?
Fly ash, a common additive, can increase the strength of concrete when the correct type is used. However, additives designed to create ‘lightweight’ or ‘insulating’ concrete will reduce its strength. Admixtures, which are chemicals used in concrete preparation, are added in addition to cement, aggregate, and water.
Toggle Title How do the normal concrete curing time and admixtured concrete curing time match?
Concrete workability can be maintained for an extended period, typically 1–2 hours. Fortunately, by carefully controlling the interactions between cement and chemical admixtures, especially in normal Portland cement, we can extend this workability without causing significant delays in the curing process.
