Description
ADVA® 555 is the latest technology in the development of high range water-reducing superplasticizing admixtures. It is an innovative, versatile, third generation polycarboxylic ether polymer.
ADVA® 555 is developed for the premix and precast industries to maximise performance through a wide range of concrete strengths. ADVA® 555 contains no added Chlorides and no TEA. ADVA® 555 complies with AS 1478.1-2000, Type HWR.
Application areas
- Low water-cement ratios with high placement slumps
- Tremie and pump mixes that require extended slump life
- Precast and prestressed applications for high early strengths and reduced heat energy for curing
Benefits
- Developed for concrete with wide range of strengths, no need for other superplasticizers on specific applications
- Produces very high slump concrete at low water-cement ratios without segregation and loss of strength
- High water cut and early strength development, well suited for precast
- Excellent slump retention properties without retardation
- Can be added at the batch plant, no need for on-site addition
- Requires less vibration for ease of placement in reinforced concrete
- Exhibits superior water reduction
- Improves surface and off form finishes
