Vista Superplast - SCC
(High Performance Superplasticizer For Self Compacting Concrete)
Description
Vista Superplast SCC is a high-performance superplasticizer used to produce self-compacting concrete with high consistence values. It is particularly useful in precast operations, flooring, and when pouring into intricate or heavily congested areas of reinforcement. Vista Superplast SCC enhances cement dispersion, creating non-shrinkable concrete with high water reduction and workability retention. It conforms to IS: 9103: 1999 (Reaffirmed 2004) and ASTM C494, Type F.
Uses
Vista Superplast SCC is suitable for concrete where high early and ultimate strengths are required. It has been developed for use in:
- Self-compacting concrete.
- Pumped concrete.
- Concrete with extreme water reduction and excellent flowability with optimal cohesion.
- Pre-cast concrete.
- High-performance and high-strength concrete.
- Concrete requiring long workability and retention.
Advantages
- Strong self-compacting behavior.
- Developed early strength.
- Increases durability.
- Improved adhesion to reinforcing and stressing steel.
- Water reduction up to 40%. Higher percentage of water reduction can be achieved depending on mix design.
- Increases flexural strength.
- Reduces permeability.
- Reduces shrinkage and creep.
- Reduces the rate of carbonation of the concrete.
