Liquid Form Set Accelerating

Liquid Form Concrete Accelerator (Code: LSA™) is a convenient, ready-to-use product specifically designed to accelerate the setting time of concrete. This liquid admixture proves especially valuable in cold regions, as it significantly enhances the hydration rate during concreting. The advantage of using LSA™ is that it expedites setting without compromising the ultimate strength of the concrete. The formulation of this quick-setting accelerator incorporates synthetic compounds derived from waste materials and residues. These compounds may exist as single substances or combinations of several elements. Accelerators typically come in organic and inorganic forms, with or without chlorine content. Depending on the type of accelerator used, it can affect the concrete’s setting and hardening processes. A combination of triethanol and calcium formate or a mixture of thiocyanates, thiosulfates, nitrates, and alkaline amines, soluble in water, can be recommended for rapid hardening. A blend of metal aluminates, hydroxides, carbonates, ethanol amine, and alkali metal aluminates containing metal tetraborates has proven effective. To achieve significant resistance, potassium-based salts such as pyrophosphate, aluminate, and potassium carbonate can also be utilized.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do liquid concrete accelerators have feedback on the concrete's final deflection?

No, the quick setting of liquid concrete does not have any feedback on the final deflection of concrete at the same time as the setting of concrete increases

Are chlorides used in liquid concrete?

No, since chlorides are dangerous for rebars, chlorides were not used.

What types of compounds are used as liquid concrete accelerators?

A mixture of triethanol and calcium formate or a mixture of thiocyanates, thiosulfates, nitrates and alkaline amines soluble in water and sometimes a mixture of metal aluminates, hydroxides and carbonates and ethanolamine, aluminates and alkali metal aluminates with metal tetraborates have been suggested for early hardening of concrete.

How much is the amount of quick-setting concrete?

It is usually used in doses of 1 to 4 liters per 100 kg of cement.

Can liquid accelerators be used in reinforced concrete?

Yes! Because chlorides are not used in liquid set accelerating, it can be used.
