Description
Advacast 555 is a high efficiency polycarboxylate-based superplasticizer. Advacast 555 has been formulated to impart maximum desired workability without segregation to concrete and to achieve high early compressive strength as required by the precast industry. Advacast 555 is optimized for the production of Self-Consolidating Concrete (SCC) in precast/ prestressed applications. Advacast 555 is formulated to comply with ASTM C494 as a Type A and F and ASTM C1017 Type I.
Meets or exceeds the requirements of ASTM C494 Type F, and ASTM C1017 Type I. Advacast 555 is supplied as a ready-to-use brown liquid. One gallon weighs approximately 8.90 lbs (one liter weighs approximately 1.07 kg). Advacast 555 contains no intentionally added chlorides.
