Performance

Product advantages

Depending on the cement type and concrete temperature, it significantly increases early strength of concrete in the first 24 hours.
It accelerates the hydration reaction of cement in cold weather and provides concrete to set early.
Reduces mold release time.
Protects concrete from freezing.
Does not contain chloride or any other components that will result in corrosion of the reinforcement. Suitable for use in any reinforced concrete structures.
Do not contain chloride or any other components that result in corrosion in the reinforcements. Therefore, it is suitable for use in reinforced concrete structures.

Application range

Areas of use

For concrete production where very high early strength is required
Concrete production in cold weather
Where frost effect is expected
When sudden temperature drop is expected
Multi-reinforced concrete
In ready-mix concrete, in pouring precast and prefabricated concrete
Where it is necessary to mold early or load the molds quickly
It can be used in combination with normal and superplasticizers however using in combination with admixtures that have retarding effect is not recommended

Use guidance

From selection
to application.

Application

ARSET FAST SERIES products may be added with the mixing water or simultaneously during the mixing water is introduced to the concrete. It can also be added to the fresh ready mix concrete at the concrete plant or construction site.

Dosage

ARSTEP FAST SERIES products’ dosage should be adjusted according to the total amount of binder in the mixture design. This ratio varies according to the cement, aggregate, mineral additive, water components used in concrete mixture design and also the desired fresh and hardened concrete properties. Therefore, before determining the usage rate, laboratory tests should be made according to the properties expected from fresh and hardened concrete and the mixing ratio should be determined according to these tests.

Storage

Shelf life is 12 months from the date of production when stored in original unopened and undamaged packages (drums, barrels, IBC containers) at temperatures between +5 °C and +35 °C, protecting from direct sunlight, excessive heat and frost. If the product has waited for a long time, make it homogeneous by mixing slowly at low speed with mechanical methods before using the product. Make sure that the product does not freeze. If the product freezes, it should be thawed by keeping it at room temperature without using direct heat and mixed by mechanical methods until it becomes homogeneous.
