SMAC PC UW is polycarboxylate ether based anti-washout admixture specially developed for concrete grouting placed underwater. Concrete treated with SMAC PC UW admixture exhibits superior resistance to washout of cement and fines.
Uses:
All types of underwater structures
Piles
Grouting applications where mixtures are typically more fluid and have a higher potential forwashout.
Benefits:
Reduces costly methods of dewatering
Thixotropic action provides stiffening after concrete is placed
Minimal to no effect on set time
Minimized environmental impact of cement washout in water
Reduces or eliminates concrete bleeding
Slump characteristics equal to untreated concrete virtually eliminates segregation, even withhighly fluid, high water-cementitious ratio mixes
