RHEOMAC 1008 SURETEC 

RHEOMAC 1008 SURETEC is an innovative new generation polycarboxylate ether based slump retaining aid with super retention technology.  Additionally, it can help the ready-mixed / precast concrete industries, where more than normal slump retention and durability are required, particularly in hot climates. RHEOMAC 1008 SURETEC is a specifically tailored, stand alone product, the constituents of its active ingredient exhibiting unique adsorption characteristics to cement. RHEOMAC 1008 SURETEC can be used in conjunction with BASF polycarboxylate ether and modified lignosulphonate based admixtures only to aid in super slump retention of a concrete mix. The excellent dispersion effect makes RHEOMAC 1008 SURETEC the ideal aid for the ready-mixed concrete / precast concrete industry, without affecting concrete setting times. The ability to work over a range of water binder ratios including low w/b ratios and still obtain extended slump retention allows for the manufacture of high quality concrete.

RHEOMAC 1008 SURETEC is free of added chloride and complies with  ASTM C 494/ C 494M-08, Type G, BS EN 934 – 2:2001, AS 1478.1 - 2000 Type SN and is also  compatible with all cements meeting recognized international standards.

RHEOMAC 1008 SURETEC is recommended for:

• Super slump retaining concrete with equal or less water content than conventional admixtures.
• Faster mixing aids logistics during large pours
• Highly flowable concrete
• Highly durable concrete
• Ready-mixed concrete
• Precast concrete
• Mass concrete
• Long distance transport
• Pumped concrete
• Hot weather concreting
