Micro silica gel is a type of expanded concrete additive and commodity consisting of super-lubricating concrete and powdered micro silica and water repellent concrete additives, also known as fiber-reinforced silica, with a high degree of strength, The relative increase in compressive, flexural and tensile strength capabilities, longer durability and longer life, has a significant impermeability to conventional and higher slump concrete in the production and production of desirable and highly applicable impermeable concrete.
Properties and effects of MICRO GEL-R retardant microgel:
- Reduce the ratio of water to cement
- 10 to 15 percent reduction in cement grade
- Increase concrete efficiency
- Increase the shelf life of concrete paste
- Delay in concrete retention time
- Ease of pumping and reduced depreciation of concrete equipment
- Compatibility with various Portland cements
- Increase compressive strength by about 10 to 40 percent over non-admixture concrete
- Decreased water absorption and concrete permeability
- Prevent penetration of chlorine ions and other destructive chemical ions into the concrete
Applications of MICRO GEL-R retardant microgel:
- Manufacture and transport of concrete over long distances and tropical areas
- Construction of high strength and impermeable concrete
- Concrete shedding in areas affected by chemical destructive ions such as the northern and southern areas of the country and dunes
- Construction of concrete piers, bridges and tanks
- Construction of concrete treatment plants
- Concrete casting in hot climates
