Product Description

Classic Crete RMW is based on specially processed lignosulphonates & additives and it is supplied as a brown liquid readily miscible with water. Concrete however well made is to some extent porous and water must be prevented from penetrating through capillary pores. The presence of water in hardened concrete can cause corrosion of reinforcement which is made severe by freezing and thawing of concrete containing absorbed moisture. Further deterioration can occur if the water penetrating the concrete contains dissolved aggresive salts. Classic Crete RMW provides protection against deterioration due to the pores, left by the slow by the slow evaporation of the excess water not taken up by hydration of cement. Classic Crete RMW entrains a controlled amount of air which does not increase with the dosage. The risk of capillary suction is reduced by the induced air which blocks the pores. The plasticizing action of Classic Crete RMW aids in producing denser concrete/ mortar with greatly reduced permeability
