PANTARHIT® PC170 (FM)
High performance superplasticizer acc. to EN 934-2 for precast concrete
Item No. 0893
FIELDS OF APPLICATION
PANTARHIT® PC170 (FM) is a high performance superplasticizer which was purposefully designed for concretes having high consistencies and low w/c ratios in precast applications.
The PCE-based superplasticizer enables high early strength developments even at low ambient temperatures and without additional external heat.
This might enable reducing the stripping times and can therefore result in a more productive production process.
PANTARHIT® PC170 (FM) has excellent plasticizing effects which do not only which increases the workability but also enhance concrete's consistency by several consistency classes e.g. from F1 up to F6.
PANTARHIT® PC170 (FM) is particularly suitable for producing self compacting concrete (SCC).
The combination of improved strength development and workability might lead to economical, ecological and technical benefits:
- heated formwork can be removed
- compaction energy can be conserved
- stripping times can be reduced and
- the curing cycle can be optimised
These features can result in a more productive production process.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
PANTARHIT® PC170 (FM) improves the cement dispersion within the concrete significantly. This property allows the formation of a homogenous and low-viscosity cement paste which ensures an improved workability and facilitates the compaction of concrete.
Its special built achieves an excellent plasticizing effect and extends the processing time purposefully. Therefore PANTARHIT® PC170 (FM) meets the special requirements challenging the precast concrete industry.
