Max Flo SP 900 is a highly effective water reducing superplasticiser and an extremely powerful
de-flocculating agent based on soluble salt of polymeric napthalene sulphonate.
STANDARD
ASTM C 494 Type F, BS EN 934-2
USES
Max Flo SP 900 is used to produce a flowing concrete for the congested areas, slabs, foundations,
large ours, beams, columns and precast elements. It provides excellent strength gain at early ages and major
increase at all ages of concrete.
ADVANTAGES
- Good workability with fast strength gain.
- Economical and cost effective solution for precast concrete.
- Increases durability by reducing permeability.
- Increased production in precast yards.
- Normal setting without any retardation.
- Chloride free and safe for use in pre-stressed and reinforced concrete.

COMPATIBILITY
Max Flo SP 900 can be used with all types of cements and cementitious materials like fly ash, GGBS,
micro silica etc. Max Flo SP 900 should not be premixed with other admixtures unless recommended
by Ressichem Technician.
DOSAGE
Recommended dosage is 0.5 – 3.0 % by weight of cementitious material. Higher dosage can be used after verification
by conducting lab and site trials. Optimum dosage of Max Flo SP 900 and effect on concrete
properties such as workability, strength, setting time, etc. are best assessed after preliminary tests on site
using the actual materials of mixes under consideration.
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 taken to allow for the effect on the stripping time of formwork.
In such cases, provided the concrete is properly cured, the ultimate strength will generally be higher than the
regular concrete.
PACK SIZE
Available in 1 Liter, 5 Liters, 10 Liters, 15 Liters, 25 Liters and 200 Liters of packaging.
