PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Accelerating Mid-Range Water Reducing Admixture (AMW™ code) is a highly effective concrete additive with super-plasticizing, super-water-reducing, and quick-setting properties. It operates by effectively dispersing cement particles throughout the concrete mix. Formulated using polynaphthalene sulfonate, this additive is compatible with all types of cement and meets the requirements of the ASTM C494 standard.
AMW™ concrete admixture enhances the quality and strength of concrete by reducing the water-to-cement ratio. It significantly improves the fluidity and workability of the mix, allowing for easier handling and placement. Accelerating the setting time of concrete, enables the faster achievement of initial and final strength.
This versatile additive is suitable for a wide range of concrete applications where the acceleration of the setting time is desired. Whether it’s an ideal solution for construction projects with tight schedules or applications requiring rapid strength development, AMW™ is an ideal solution. It ensures superior performance and meets the stringent requirements of various concrete projects.

Additive Consumption Amount:
The recommended dosage of AMW™ code is typically between 500 to 1700 ml per 100 kg of cement. Ensure that the amount used falls within this range for optimal performance.
Test for Performance Confirmation:
If there is a need to use doses outside the permitted range, conduct an initial test to confirm the performance of the concrete mix with the adjusted dosage. Ensure the desired concrete properties are achieved before proceeding with the entire application.
Mixing Process:
When preparing the concrete mix, follow these steps:
- Empty the aggregates into the mixer.
- Pour approximately 60% of the required mixing water.
- Add the AMW™ code admixture to the mixture.
- Proceed with the remaining water and continue mixing until the desired consistency is achieved.
- Adherence to Specifications: Ensure AMW™ code meets required standards and verify compatibility.
