Naphthalene Sulfonate Formaldehyde (NSF/PNS)
 (UNF-5 Na2SO4 ≤18%)

Description
UNF-5, a high range water reducer with no air entraining component, is also named as Naphthalene Sulfonate Formaldehyde Condensate (NSF), SNF, PNS, etc.. It complies with chemical admixture specifications for concrete: ASTM C 494, Type F; ASTM C 1017.

Application
1. UNF-5 is suitable to make autotrophic concrete, steam curing concrete, steel concrete and prestress concrete, all of which are made mainly of portland cement.
2. UNF-5 is applicable in areas with the daily lowest temperature of 0℃ and for making concrete which requires high fluidity, high strength or steam curing.
3. UNF-5 can be used to make C80 concrete with slump loss between 50mm and 70mm, or C60 concrete with that between 180mm and 220mm.
4. UNF-5 can be used as a raw material to compound accelerator, retarder, anti-freezing agent and pumping aid to satisfy requirements from different construction projects, techniques, materials and environmental temperatures.
5. UNF-5 is compatible with Portland Cement, Portland Slag Cement, Fly-ash Cement, Portland Pozzolanic Cement, etc.

Features and Benefits
1. High water reducing rate: over 20%.
2. Saving cement without sacrificing slump retention and strength.
3. Good flowability.
4. Early and post strengthening ability.
5. Great compatibility with various types of cement.
6. Improved Compactness: it develops a better pore structure and makes the concrete more compact. It produces high durable concrete of which the anti-infiltrating index is beyond P18.

Uses and Dosages
It can be added during mix or after mix, while the afterward approach is preferential.
Dosage normally ranges from 0.5% to 1.0% by weight of cementitious material, while the recommended dosage is 0.75%.

Package
It's packed in woven fabric bag with plastic liner. Net weight: 25kg.
