PANTARHIT^® FM 243

Superplasticizer for concrete

Item No. 0817/E

FIELDS OF APPLICATION

PANTARHIT® FM 243 is a superplasticizer for producing high-quality concrete and suitable for applying in both precast and ready-mix plants. The sulphonated superplasticizer enhances concrete’s workability, advances its slump retention, and improves its trowellability. PANTARHIT® FM 243 allows reducing the incidence of cold joints. PANTARHIT® FM 243 is applied to enhance concrete's consistency by several consistency classes or to reduce the quantity of tempering water.

WORKING PRINCIPLE

PANTARHIT® FM 243 reduces the surface tension of water and ensures a strong plasticizing effect thereby. This leads on to a significant improvement in concrete’s workability, pumping, levelling, and compaction. PANTARHIT® FM 243 does not entrain any air voids into the concrete but even reduces them. The setting of concrete is not impaired.
