Polyheed 1731 

POLYHEED 1731 is a chloride free, mid range water reducing admixture. It is based on selected water soluble sulphonated polymers, each of which acts optimally on the various constituents of Portland cement.

It is also effective on blended cements based on Portland cement and other materials such as Pozzolans, fly ash, and slags.

The use of POLYHEED 1731 helps in the production of workable concrete with low water/cement ratios.

POLYHEED 1731 meets the requirements of ASTM C494 for Types A and F admixtures.

POLYHEED 1731 increase the workability of concrete and the duration of workability retention considerably.

POLYHEED 1731 maintains workability of fresh concrete for a period of time. The duration of workability retention depends on the ambient temperature, types of cement and aggregates used, dosage rate and method of transportation.

POLYHEED 1731 is compatible with both water reducers and air entraining agents approved under ASTM specifications but it should be dispensed separately into the concrete mix. It should only be used with water reducer after specific testing at proposed dose rates, as certain combinations of dosages can result in extended retardation.
