Description
LS AEA® is a ready to use liquid air-entraining admixture which produces a stable air void system in the mortar phase of concrete mixes. The action of LS AEA® is to generate a controlled quantity of air in discrete and uniformly dispersed microscopic bubbles which improves concrete workability and reduces bleed of the concrete mix after placement.
LS AEA® contains no Chloride as an intentional component and has no TEA. LS AEA® is manufactured under rigid control which provides uniform and predictable performance when used in concrete. LS AEA® complies with AS 1478.1-2000, Type AEA.
