    Structuro w440

    Uploaded by

    Vincent Javate
    Structuro W440 is a high performance hyperplasticiser intended for applications requiring increased early and ultimate compressive strengths, such as self-compacting concrete, pumped concrete, concrete with long workability retention, and high performance concrete. It combines properties of water reduction and workability retention, allowing production of consistent, high performance concrete. Structuro W440 is a strong hyperplasticiser that reduces water demand and increases strengths, workability, and durability of concrete.

    cement dispersion. At the start of the mixing process an
    electrocstatic dispersion occurs but the presence of the lateral
    chains, linked to the polymer backbone, generate a steric
    hindrance which stabilises the cement particle’s capacity to
    separate and disperse. This mechanism considerably
    reduces the water demand in flowable concrete.
