Concrete Crack Reducing Admixture

Since 2022, Russia-Ukraine geopolitical conflicts have intensified, and global energy prices have risen sharply, with international natural gas prices hitting historic highs. As the most important transitional energy source in the transition from fossil energy to non-fossil energy, the share of natural gas in primary energy has increased from 14.6% in 1965 to 24.7% in 2020.  The global gas price indices showed a unilateral downward trend from 2018, bottomed out in 2020, and remained low for a long time. However, since July 2020, the global gas prices have gradually fluctuated upward, and the impact of geopolitical events made the Dutch TTF gas price even hit record highs repeatedly.

An analyst of a securities company believes that the core catalyst of this round of global gas market lies in the lack of investment in upstream oil and gas resources caused by long-term low prices. Since 2020, although the epidemic has led to a decline in demand, the decline in supply has been faster, resulting in a large inventory consumption. In 2021, demand will recover faster than supply (the supply-side is less sensitive to prices, which will be reflected in investment).  

As the world's two largest gas Concrete crack reducing admixture are also expected to change significantly.

Description of concrete crack reducing admixture

Cement anti-crack agent is Tongrun's full use of the physical and chemical changes in the cement curing process. The chemically synthesized powder can prevent cracking and cracking from both physical and chemical aspects, which can significantly improve the strength of lightweight concrete.

The anti-cracking agent can effectively solve the problem of the natural cracking of cement products. Adding the anti-cracking agent to lightweight concrete can reduce the cracks and hollowing of lightweight concrete, increase the strength of mortar and improve the quality of the project.

The anti-crack agent solves the problems of large shrinkage deformation, poor impermeability, and weak crack resistance of ordinary cement products. Directly incorporated into cement can effectively control the plastic shrinkage and cracks caused by segregation of lightweight concrete, significantly improving the strength of lightweight concrete cracking performance, anti-freezing, and anti-shock performance and wear resistance and earthquake resistance.

Usage of concrete crack reducing admixture

Concrete crack reducing admixture can be used to solve the crack problem of bridges, highways, runways, dams, cement products, mortar.

Especially suitable for various products of lightweight concrete.

Characteristic of concrete crack reducing admixture

(1) Crack resistance: The crack resistance agent is easily dispersed in lightweight concrete to form a three-dimensional space structure, which effectively improves the phenomenon of reduced hardening and cracking caused by too fast drying of mortar and insufficient moisture;

(2) Low shrinkage: the mixture will not shrink and settle, and the anti-crack agent can absorb internal stress and improve crack resistance;

(3)Operability: Anti-crack agent can increase the plasticity of mortar, improve construction operability and work efficiency;

(4) Anti-slip property: Because the anti-crack agent has a thickening effect, it can prevent or avoid the slippage of mortar and adherend during construction to a certain extent.

Instructions of concrete crack reducing admixture

The recommended dosage is 1.5-3kg/m3, and the precise usage needs to be determined after debugging;

When using it, it is best to dissolve the anti-crack agent in the required water, and then add it to the mixer to stir, and then it can be used.

Storage and transportation of cement anti-crack agent

(1)The anti-crack agent packaging specification is 20 kg/bag, non-toxic and non-flammable, and can be transported as general cargo;

(2)The anti-crack agent should be stored in a cool and dry place to avoid rain and moisture, and the shelf life is 24 months.
