Description
Sugar calcium is a set-retarding admixture, refined from molasses residue from sugar production. It can slow down the hydration of cement, lengthen set time, and extend the working life of concrete for long periods without any negative influence on the concrete quality. It complies with ASTM C 494, Type B, GB8076-1997 and GB50119-2003.

Application
Sugar calcium retarder is beneficially used in hot weather conditions in order to overcome accelerating effects of higher temperatures. It can be widely applied in large masses of concrete, freshly batched concrete for long hauls, shotcrete, and cast concrete.

Specifications

Features and Benefits
Extend concrete initial setting time during hot weather.
Increase the workable time of concrete up to several hours.
Provide flexibility in planning and scheduling of concrete pours.
Serve as a good grinding aid and set-time conditioning agent.
Usage and Dosage
For normal use, the dosage rate varies from 0.10% to 0.15% by cement weight. In some cases when the dosage of admixtures exceeds a certain critical point, hydration of cement compounds will hang over a certain stage, and the cement paste will never set. Thus, it is important to avoid overdosing, and pilot tests should be carried out to optimize the dosage.
It can also be applied after being dissolved into water by 1:5 or 1:10.
