Product Description
Air entraining agent is a specialized admixture that dissolves in water and is added to concrete mixtures. It produces numerous tiny, stable bubbles during the mixing process to enhance material properties.
🚀 Key Functions:
- Improve fluidity, cohesiveness, and water retention of concrete mixes.
- Increase bending strength by 10%-20% (with 3%-5% gas content).
- Enhance resistance to freezing, salt, sulfate, and alkali aggregate reactions.
- Improve volume stability and extend the service life of road concrete.
- Reduce water secretion and segregation, improving homogeneity.
AE-360 is a specialized surfactant mixture developed for concrete, offering excellent compatibility with polycarboxylic acid water-reducing agents and various other admixtures.
Product Characteristics
1. High Efficiency in Harsh Environments
Excellent air-entraining capacity in hard water and alkaline environments, significantly boosting durability in cold or wet conditions.
2. Superior Bubble Stability
Low dosage requirement with bubbles that resist breaking or merging. Essential for lightweight materials like foamed cement and gypsum.
3. Fine Foam Structure
Produces fine, stable bubbles that improve fluidity and plasticity while reducing water seepage.
4. Ion Resistance
Performance remains unaffected by common calcium and magnesium ions found in building materials.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the primary applications for AE-360?
AE-360 is ideal for polycarboxylic acid concrete additives, wet mortar additives, foamed gypsum, and foamed cement systems.
What is the difference between AE-330 and AE-360?
AE-360 is specifically optimized for concrete systems, whereas AE-330 is more suitable for gypsum foaming and wet mortar systems.
What are the packaging options?
The product is typically supplied in 200KG plastic drums or 1000KG IBC tanks. Larger quantities often result in lower unit transportation costs.
How does AE-360 improve concrete durability?
It enhances frost resistance, salinity resistance, and sulfate erosion resistance while significantly improving volume stability and extending the service life of structures.
How should the product be stored?
It should be kept in a ventilated, dry place. Avoid direct sunlight and moisture. The shelf life is 12 months from the production date.
Does the water quality affect the performance?
AE-360 maintains high air-entraining capacity even in hard water and alkaline environments, as it is relatively unaffected by calcium and magnesium ions.
