Plasticiser additive ViscoCrete® G-2

Sika® ViscoCrete® G-2 is a high-performance superplasticizer and water reducer based on Sika® ViscoCrete® polycarboxylate polymer technology. High water reduction Excellent flowability Free of formaldehyde and ammonia Sika® ViscoCrete® G-2 is formulated for applications in systems with high calcium sulfate content or pure gypsum binders. The product is especially suitable for the manufacture of gypsum products like: Gypsum boards (also: plasterboards, wallboards), partition panels, ceiling tiles Gypsum fiberboards, building elements, blocks Building plaster, render, stucco, bonding/filling compound, molding plaster, dental and medical plaster Advantages Sika® ViscoCrete® works based on a combination of electrostatic forces and steric repulsion effects. Thus, solid particles can be effectively dispersed. The benefits of Sika® ViscoCrete® G-2 include, but are not limited to the following: High water reduction Excellent flowability Rapid adsorption Very low retardation Compatible with other additives Free of formaldehyde and ammonia Especially when utilized for gypsum board production the use of Sika® ViscoCrete® G-2 may result in: Short mixing time Reduced placing- and compacting efforts Shorter drying time Improved shrinkage and creep behavior Higher strength adjustable Reduced water consumption and less waste water Reduced energy consumption and CO2-emission Increased production rate and thus enlarged capacity Packaging IBC of 1000 kg net Bulk supply on demand Colour Light yellowish liquid
