Sika® Luftporenbildner LPS A-94 is utilised for the manufacture of mortar and concrete with high resistance to freezing/thawing and de-icing salts. Even under difficult conditions such as e.g. in concrete road construction, the desired air pore content is securely achieved.
Very small, evenly distributed air pores
Suitable in neutral and alkaline binder systems
Very long foam stability
Usage
Concrete road construction and bridge construction
Road surfacing concrete
Cap concrete
Ready-mixed concrete with long travelling distances
Air-entrained concrete in conjunction with plasticizers and superplasticizers
Mixtures with low content of ultra-fines to improve workability
Screeds
Ready-mixed mortar
Advantages
Sika® Luftporenbildner LPS A-94 causes:
The formation of the smallest, evenly distributed air pores even under difficult conditions
An expansion possibility for freezing water
A reduction of the capillary suction effect
A substitute of fines
This causes in mortar and concrete:
An air pore system that fulfils the requirements of micro-air pore content and spacing factor
A high resistance to freezing/thawing and de-icing salts
A reduced capillary water absorption
An improved workability by means of "ball bearing effect"
