COMPATIBILIYT

Max Flo SP 802 (Powder) can be used with all types of cements and cementitious materials like fly ash, GGBS, micro silica etc. It should not be pre-mixed with other admixtures.

DOSAGE

Recommended dosage is 0.25 – 1.5 % by weight of cementitious material. Higher dosage can be used after verification of performance by conducting lab and site trials.

EFFECT OF OVERDOSING

Overdosing may result in higher workability and delay in setting. If intentionally or accidentally, dosage used is above the recommended dosages, care must be take not allow for the effect on the striping of formwork. In such cases, provide the concrete is properly cured the ultimate strength will generally be higher than the regular concrete.

PACK SIZE

Available in 2KG and 20 KG packs.

NOTE

Max Flo SP 802 (Powder) can be mixed with water directly to form an admixture solution that can be used as per recommended dosage and concentration of the powder. The recommended dosage should be as per the powdered dosage as mentioned in the dosage section of this datasheet. It is always recommended to conduct a trial before dosages and dosing methodology is defined.

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.
