Ekan FLEX 927-N Superplasticiser
EKAN®FLEX 927-N is a highly effective water-reducing superplasticiser based on naphthalene-sulfonate. It improves workability and facilitates placement of concrete. It is suitable where high workability and high early strength are required and contributes to impermeability by reducing the water/cement ratio. EN 934-2 T 11.1 / T 11.2. Plastic tank 1000 litre; dosage 1.0–2.0 kg per 100 kg cement. It should not be mixed with polycarboxylate-based products.
Ekan HZ 20 Set Accelerator
EKAN®HZ 20 is a water-soluble set accelerator based on organic and mineral salts. It speeds cement hydration, shortens setting time and raises early compressive strength while promoting more homogeneous hydration. It protects concrete against frost in cold climates and helps reduce joint-formation risk. It has no water-reducing effect. EN 934-2 T 6. Density 1.06 ± 0.03 kg/l; dosage 0.5–2 kg per 100 kg cement; bulk or 1000 litre plastic tank.
