ViscoFluid FLU 5X4 M
high range water reducing and superplasticizing admixture for concrete
ViscoFluid FLU 5X4 M provides the following beneficial properties:
Substantial modification in workability without increased water
Low risk of segregation
Regular set without retardation (with in the dosage limit)
Improved density and surface finish
Improved water tightness
Excellent solution for continuous concrete casting of deep elements
It does not contain chlorides or other steel corrosion-promoting ingredients that may be used for reinforced and pre-stressed concrete construction.
Better, Faster, Cheaper
Description
- ViscoFluid FLU 5X4 M is part of a range of latest generation superplasticisers engineered for ready-mix concrete. ViscoFluid FLU 5X4 M is based on unique polymers with long lateral chains. This greatly improves cement dispersion. At the start of the mixing process the same electrostatic dispersion occurs but the presence of the lateral chains, l inked to the polymer backbone, generate a steric hindrance which stabilises the cement particles capacity to separate and disperse. This mechanism provides flowable concrete with greatly reduced water dem and. Suitable for use in hot and tropical climatic conditions.
Advantages
- ViscoFluid FLU 5X4 M provides the following beneficial properties
Substantial improvement in workability without increased water
Low risk of segregation
Normal set without retardation (with in the dosage limit)
Improved density and surface finish
Improved water tightness
Excellent solution for continuous concrete casting of deep elements
ViscoFluid FLU 5X4 M may be used in combination with Stabilizer. The technology producesadvanced self-compacting concrete, without the aid of vibration. for economic, ecological and ergonomic ready-mix concrete production.

Dispensing
This is a ready-to-use admixture that should be added to the concrete as a separate component. For the best results, add it to the concrete mix immediately after the first 80% of the mixing water has been introduced—when all solids are properly wetted. Avoid adding the admixture directly to dry aggregates.

Recommended dosage
The recommended dosage ranges from 0.3% to 2. 0% by weight of the binder or 0.13% to 0.2% by weight of the total mix mass. However, the exact dosage may vary based on mix design, raw materials, climatic conditions, and specific concrete requirements. It is essential to conduct trial mixes to determine the optimal dosage for your application.
Concreting guidance
Follow standard best practices for concrete production and placement, adhering to relevant industry standards. Proper curing of fresh concrete is essential, especially in high temperatures, to prevent plastic and drying shrinkage.
