  • Higher water reduction in concrete, hence less compaction is required.
  • The denser concrete leads to higher strength.
  • Better cohesive concrete is formed.
  • Better slump retention.
  • Better compaction reduces water permeability.

Precautions and Limitations

  • Keep the lid closed when not in use.
  • Do not use more than the recommended dosage.
