DARASET® AF

Set accelerating admixture

Description

Daraset® AF is a Chloride-free, non-corrosive accelerating admixture for concrete which accelerates cement hydration resulting in shortened setting times. Daraset® AF is a brown aqueous solution of organic and inorganic compounds. Daraset® AF does not contain any added Chloride components such as Calcium Chloride.

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

Application areas

  • Portland cement mixes ; fly ash and slag
  • Winter weather concrete when accelerated set times are required
  • Prestressed/Precast concrete
  • Any concrete where earlier use of the concrete is required

Benefits

  • Chloride-free and non-corrosive ; provides accelerated finishing times at low temperatures
  • Reduces setting time i.e. up to 2 hours when concrete poured at 10˚C
  • Speeds up finishing operations and earlier form work removal, optimising costs
