Description
Daraset® AF is a non-chloride set-accelerating admixture designed to accelerate the setting of concrete under low ambient temperature conditions while enhancing both early-age and
ultimate compressive strength development. Daraset® AF complies with AS 1478.1-2000, Type AC requirements.
Application areas
- Residential slabs and flatwork
- Pumped concrete applications
- Internal floor slabs placed over plastic membranes where air circulation is limited
- Precast manufacturing including blocks, bricks, pavers and roof tiles
Benefits
- Accelerates concrete set times, particularly in cold weather conditions
- Enables earlier finishing operations and improved construction productivity
- Increases early-age compressive strength and promotes earlier formwork removal
- Enhances ultimate compressive strength compared with untreated concrete
- Reduces bleed by improving setting characteristics
- Effective across a wide range of cementitious contents and concrete mix designs
- Assists in offsetting delayed setting associated with fly ash and slag-containing concrete mixes
Packaging
- 205 L Drum
- IBC 1000L
