Concrete admixture

Aug. 11, 2010

Color-enhancing and efflorescence-control admixture is formulated to improve the overall appearance and physical properties of manufactured concrete products such as segmental retaining wall units and concrete paving stones by improving cement and pigment dispersion. OPTEC EC-130 reacts with the hydrating cement, inhibiting the formation of excessive water-soluble salts that can cause efflorescence. Formulated as a ready-to-use admixture to aid the zero-slump manufacturing process, the admixture also plasticizes the mixture, aiding in the manufacturing process.
