Innovation: MasterEase – superplasticizers for low-viscosity concrete
BASF launched the MasterEase range, a new generation of superplasticizers based on a new compound specially designed for low-viscosity concrete. This innovative type of superplasticizer improves the rheological properties of fresh concrete by reducing its viscosity whilst retaining its yield limit. For instance, in the conventional slump test of self-compacting concrete, this means that concrete to which a MasterEase superplasticizer is added will exhibit the same slump flow (diameter) at a similar superplasticizer ratio whilst requiring a much shorter time (t500). Moreover, the...
