    Max Flo R is water reducing and retarding liquid admixture to improve the workability of concrete and mortars. Max Flo R is formulated from carefully selected raw materials and is manufactured under controlled conditions to give a consistent product. It is based on a high-grade plasticizing and retarding agent.

    USES

    Max Flo R is used to produce workable and retarding concrete, plasters, renders, and mortars including all types of RMC’s tunnels, runways, canals, reservoirs, and marine structures, etc. It can also be used as water proofer to reduce permeability of concrete.

    ADVANTAGES 

    • Good workability improvement to most of concrete mixes.
    • Ultimate strength enhancement.
    • Can be used for pumpable concrete.
    • Extended setting time in high temperatures.
    • Reduced shrinkage and creep

    TYPICAL PROPERTIES AT 25°C

    Property Test Method Value
    Component – Single
    Form – Liquid
    Color – Brown
    Specific Gravity ASTM C 494 1.22 +/- 0.02
    Air Entrainment ASTM C231 Up to 1% over Control Mix
    Chloride Content BSEN 480-10 Nil to BSEN 934-2
    pH ASTM C 494 7-9

    Typical results under laboratory conditions.

    Results may vary as per site and usage conditions.

    COMPATIBILIYT

    Max Flo R can be used with all types of cements and cementitious materials like fly ash, GGBS, micro silica etc. Max Flo R should not be premixed with other admixtures unless recommended by Ressichem Technician.

    DOSAGE

    Recommended dosage is 0.5 –1.5 % by weight of cementitious material. Higher dosage can be used after verification of performance by conducting lab and site trials. Optimum dosages of Max Flo R and effect on concrete properties such as workability, strength, setting time, etc. are best assessed after preliminary tests on site using the actual material of mixes under consideration.

    EFFECT OF OVERDOSING

    Overdosing may result in higher workability and can delay in setting time.

    PACK SIZE

    Available in 1 Liter, 5 Liters, 10 Liters, 15 Liters, 25 Liters and 200 Liters of packaging.

    DISPENSING

    Max Flo R should be directly dispensed into the concrete mixer together with mixing water.

    SHELF LIFE

    12 months from the date of manufacture when stored under cool and dry warehouse conditions in original unopened packaging. Extreme temperature and humidity may reduce shelf life.

    HEALTH AND SAFETY

    This product is considered as non-hazardous and safe for transportation. Suitable masks and gloves can be worn during application. Contact with skin should be avoided. Refer to product MSDS for further health and safety information.
