DARASET® AC 50

Hardening accelerating admixture

Description

DARASET® AC 50 is a Chloride-free accelerating admixture for concrete which accelerates cement hydration resulting in shortened setting times. DARASET® AC 50 is an aqueous solution of organic and inorganic compounds.

DARASET® AC 50 is manufactured under controlled conditions to produce a consistent product which ensures uniform and predictable performance when used. DARASET® AC 50 complies with AS 1478.1-2000, Type Ac.

Application areas

  • Prestressed/Precast concrete
  • Winter concrete when accelerated set times are required 
  • Any concrete where earlier use of the concrete is required

Benefits

  • Chloride-free accelerator
  • Provides accelerated finishing times at low temperature
  • Reduces setting time i.e. up to 2 hours when concrete poured at 10˚C
  • Speeds up finishing operations, form work removal and mould turn-around, optimising costs

Packaging

  • 205 L Drum
  • IBC 1000L
