VMA Crete
Description

VMA Crete is an organic compound based liquid viscosity-modifying admixture (VMA) for concrete and mortar, which improves viscosity by reducing friction between the internal particles of concrete/mortar mix and allow them to flow freely and it also controls the bleeding/segregation characteristics of mix. Thus VMA Crete helps to produce Self-compacting concrete and High flow concrete even in the presence of dense reinforcement.

Uses
  • Self-compacting and High flow concrete
  • Concrete containing gap-graded aggregates
  • Concrete with greatly varying fines content
  • Lean concrete mixtures
  • Concrete containing manufactured sand
    • Advantages
    • Increases cohesion, plasticity as well as pumpability of the fresh concrete and finishing.
    • Improves stability during transport and placing.
    • Reduces bleeding and segregation, even with highly fluid mix.
    • Reduces wear of placing equipment thus extending its service life.
    • Reduced sagging – dimensional stability.
