TYTRO® WR 172

New Generation, high range water reducing/ superplasticizing admixture

Description

TYTRO® WR 172 is the latest technology in the development of high range water-reducing superplasticising admixtures. It is an innovative, versatile, third-generation polycarboxylic ether polymer. TYTRO® WR 172 is developed for shortcrete to

maximise perfomance through a wide range of shortcrete strengths. TYTRO® WR 172 does not contain added chloride or triethanolamine. TYTRO® WR 172 complies with AS 1478.1-2000, Type HWR.

Application areas

  • Wet mix shotcrete
  • Shotcrete with low water-cement ratios
  • High flow shotcrete for tremie and pump mixes for extended slump life

Benefits

  • No other superplasticisers are needed
  • Very high slump shotcrete produced ratios without segregation at loss of strength
  • Superior slump retention without retardation
  • Reduction of steam or heat energy curing to achieve high early strengths
  • Can be added at the batch plant during batching process, no on-site addition needed
