ViscoFluid RR 8XX
high Range superplasticizer with Excellent Slump Keeping Properties for Self Compacting Concrete
ViscoFluid RR 8XX acts by surface adsorption on cement particles producing sterical hindrance as well as electrostatic repulsion resulting in higher dispersion, flow and retention providing the following beneficial properties:
Self-compacting concrete (SCC) has high impermeability and strength due to extremely high water reduction shrinkage and creep characteristics.
Excellent flowability resulting in minimal placing and compacting efforts
Slower rates of carbonation and chloride, especially silica fume or pozzolanic products, are used for a reasonable cost/performance ratio.
It does not contain chloridesor or other steel corrosion-promoting ingredients; therefore, it may be used for Reinforced and pre-stressed concrete construction.
Better, Faster, Cheaper
Description
- ViscoFluid RR 8XX is a third generation, high performance, dual action superplasticizer, based on Sika’sown ViscoCrete® technology, for the production of self-compacting concrete.
Suitable for use in hot and tropical climatic conditions.

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.
