From selection
to application.

Application

ARSTEP STOP ASR is added to the concrete mixture after 70% of the mixing water is used. Since ARSET STOP ASR contains water and the addition of admixture will increase the total concrete water / cement ratio, the concrete mixture water should be reduced in the ready mixed concrete plant and the mixture design should be done accordingly.

Dosage

The dosage of ARSTEP STOP ASR varies according to the alkali amount of the concrete components and the activity. Example calculation: The alkali amount of the cement is determined. ARTEP STOP ASR is taken as 5.50 kg per kg alkali-silica. In cement with 0.5% alkali rate; The alkali amount is converted to decimal value and multiplied by the cement dosage in the concrete. Cement dosage for 300 kg: 0.005 x 300 kg = 1.5 kg Alkali amount in concrete: 1.5 kg x 5.50 kg = 8.25 kg ARSET STOP ASR / m³ concrete

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. Some subsidence may occur during long-term storage. In this case, the product can be used by filtering. Make sure that the product does not freeze.
