Product Description

Classic Crete RPL is based on processed lignosulphonates and can be used with all types of Portland cements. Classic Crete RPL acts as both a setretarder and as a plasticizer. As a retarder, it can be used to extend setting time in high ambient temperatures especially where maps concreting are involved such as foundations, water structures, silos, piles and slip from structures where long delays or interruption can lead to problems or where cold joints have to be avoided. As a plasticizer, it can be used to increase workability without addition of water or obtain increased strength by reducing water content for a given workability, Cement reduction up to 10% is possible for a given workability and strength. The high workability is useful for difficult pours or where problem of reinforcement congestion exists.
