BT-302 Polycarboxylate superplasticizer

Product Introduction

BT-302 is a new generation of fast-releasing and slump retaining mother liquor made from TPEG by free radical polymerization, and a new sustained-release group is introduced into the synthesis. Under the alkaline condition of concrete, the slow-releasing group in the molecular structure of this product can slowly release the group with dispersive function, playing the role of continuing to disperse the cement, so as to achieve the role of inhibiting the concrete slump loss. It has a low water reduction rate, but it has very high slump protection performance. Generally used with water reducing mother liquor, It is mainly used in high-strength concrete with higher requirements for slump protection performance, and its products are widely used in pumping concrete, super-flow self-compacting and high-strength high-performance concrete and commercial concrete for high-speed railway, expressway, hydro-power and other large engineering projects.

Main Feature

  • The slow-release mother liquor was faster release PCE mother liquor. The release time is generally after 30min (according to the material difference).
  • With super high slump performance, can let the concrete slump 2h without loss.
  • Low water reduction rate; generally not used alone, it needs to be combined with water reduction mother liquor.
  • With low viscosity and thixotropy, it is more suitable for concrete with low water cement ratio.

Application Scope

1. Applicable to the configuration of early strength concrete, retarded concrete, precast concrete, cast-in-place concrete, flow concrete, self-compacting concrete, mass concrete, high-performance concrete and clear concrete, especially for low-grade commercial concrete.

2. Widely used in high-speed railways, nuclear power, water conservancy projects, subways, large bridges, and expressways.

3. Applicable to all kinds of industrial and civil construction and commercial concrete mixing stations.

Concrete Application

How to Use

1. Dosage: Usually use 0-30% mother liquor with reducing water mother liquor. The dosage of water-reducing agent is generally 1% ~ 3% of the total weight of cementing materials.

2. Adaptability: Before use or changing cement/gravel batches, carry out adaptability tests to formulate the correct proportion.

3. Compounding: Can be combined with set retarding mother liquor or functional aids (retarder, early strength, antifreeze) to craft specific admixtures.

4. Compatibility: Can be integrated with early strength agents and air entrainment agents. Do not mix with naphthalene series water reducers.

5. Mixing: Ensure measured water is added simultaneously to the mixer. Calculation should be based on total cementing materials including fly ash and slag.

Package and Storage

Packaging: Available in 200kg drums, 1000kg IBC containers, or customized.

Storage: Well-ventilated, dry warehouse at 2-35ºC. Shelf life is one year. Safeguard against direct sunlight and freezing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main function of BT-302?
BT-302 is a high-performance slump retention mother liquor designed to inhibit concrete slump loss, maintaining workability for up to 2 hours without compromising strength.
Can BT-302 be used alone as a water reducer?
Generally, no. It has a low water reduction rate (around 5% when used alone) and is typically compounded with water-reducing mother liquors to achieve optimal performance.
What is the recommended dosage for concrete?
The final water-reducing agent (after compounding) is usually dosed at 1% to 3% of the total weight of the cementitious materials.
Are there any compatibility restrictions?
Yes, it is crucial not to mix BT-302 or its compounds with naphthalene-based water reducers, as this can cause adverse chemical reactions and performance loss.
How should the product be stored to ensure quality?
It should be stored in a dry, ventilated area between 2-35ºC, away from direct sunlight and freezing conditions. The shelf life is 12 months in unopened original packaging.
Which projects benefit most from this superplasticizer?
It is ideal for high-speed railways, expressways, nuclear power plants, and large-scale pumping concrete projects requiring high-performance slump retention.
