Alkali-free solid setting agent product manual

Alkali-free setting agent is a new type of environmentally friendly alkali-free, chlorine-free high-performance setting agent. It has a strong function of accelerating cement solidification, and can also greatly improve the early and late cement strength, as well as improve the anti-seepage ability.

Ingredients: This product is an alkali-free quick-setting agent product of aluminum sulfate system, which is non-toxic, harmless, non-radioactive, non-corrosive, non-flammable and non-explosive.

Safety tips: Avoid contact with skin and glasses; if contact occurs, rinse with clean water. If splashed into eyes, wash with plenty of clean water or seek medical attention. Wear a mask and goggles when contacting powdered products.

Storage conditions: The inner and outer packaging bags of instant powder should be intact to prevent water absorption and moisture. After being prepared into liquid, the storage temperature should be greater than 5ºC. Liquid finished products should be stored in plastic/glass fiber reinforced plastic barrels. The pH value of this product is weakly acidic and will react chemically with steel materials. Avoid using iron barrels for storage.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the primary function of this alkali-free setting agent?
It significantly accelerates cement solidification and enhances both early and late-stage compressive strength while improving anti-seepage properties.
How should the powdered product be stored?
Keep the bags intact to prevent moisture. Powder can be stored for 2 years in a sealed state. Once prepared into liquid, keep it above 5ºC in plastic or fiberglass containers.
Can I use iron barrels to store the liquid product?
No. The pH of this product is weakly acidic and will react chemically with steel materials. Plastic or glass fiber reinforced barrels are recommended.
What is the recommended dosage for construction?
The standard recommended dosage is 6-9% of the cement weight. However, the optimal ratio should be determined by on-site experiments based on cement type and temperature.
What safety precautions should operators take?
Operators must wear masks, goggles, and protective gear. Avoid skin and eye contact. If contact occurs, rinse immediately with plenty of clean water.
Does the age of the cement affect the setting time?
Yes, the freshness of cement is critical. Newly produced cement yields the best results, while damp or long-stored cement may perform poorly.
