The versatility of these materials allows for their application in various contexts, with nitrite, calcium nitrate additive, and calcium nitrate, nitrite, and chloride additive specifically designed as additives. Among the American-produced additives based on calcium nitrite, carbamide has successfully resulted in regions with relatively mild weather conditions and concrete temperatures above -10 degrees Celsius. While this antifreeze admixture promotes a smooth and uniform concrete mixture, it does not significantly accelerate the hardening process. Urea, one of the components of CNNU or CCNNU (mixtures of urea with nitrite, calcium nitrate, or chloride, nitrite, calcium nitrate), has been employed in this regard.
Each combined antifreeze admixture has its specific range of applications and associated benefits, enabling efficient performance across a wide temperature spectrum. By lowering the freezing point of water, antifreeze admixtures require a consumption amount proportional to the mixed water’s weight. This consumption amount varies depending on the water-to-cement ratio. When calculating the consumption of antifreeze, similar to concrete plasticizers, based on the cement ratio, a higher water-to-cement ratio leads to a lower concentration in the solution, affecting the hardening rate below freezing temperatures. However, such concerns are alleviated when determining the antifreeze admixture quantity based on the water weight in the mixture. Consequently, all relevant tables provide the amount of antifreeze admixture based on the required water content in the mixture, following the common practice for liquid additives.
For comparative purposes with other admixtures, the amount of antifreeze used can be calculated based on the cement quantity in the mixture instead of water. In such cases, an average water-to-cement ratio of 0.5 can be assumed.
Liquid Form Antifreeze
Product ID: 4693
Liquid Form Antifreeze (LAF™ code) is a highly effective, ready-to-use product designed to facilitate the production of top-quality concrete even in low-temperature and cold weather conditions. Concreting in cold weather or winter presents challenges, as temperatures below 5 degrees Celsius can cause concrete water to freeze, leading to improper curing and setting of the concrete. LAF™ antifreeze concrete admixture, in its liquid form, serves the dual purpose of lowering the freezing point of concrete water and accelerating the hydration process. This unique formulation makes it ideal for concrete projects in cold regions. Additionally, the admixture’s composition ensures the absence of chloride materials, mitigating the concrete’s reinforcement corrosion risk. With LAF™ antifreeze, you can confidently achieve outstanding concrete performance in cold reigns without compromising durability or quality.

Frequently asked questions
admixture based on calcium nitrite, which are produced in America, have been effective in areas where the weather is relatively mild and the concrete temperature does not fall below -10 degrees Celsius. This antifreeze admixture makes the concrete mix smooth and uniform, but it does not speed up the hardening of the concrete much.
No!
By reducing the freezing point of concrete water and also increasing the hydration speed, it helps in better concreting in the cold.
It is 1.25 to 1.28 kg per liter.
12 months.
Their consumption amount is proportional to the weight of the mixed water and their consumption amount changes with different ratios of water to cement. If the amount of consumption of antifreeze, such as concrete plasticizer, is calculated based on the ratio of cement, a higher ratio of water to cement produces a lower concentration value in the solution.
