Guidelines for Mixing and Dosage of Superplasticizer Powders in Construction Work


In the field of construction engineering, high-efficiency water reducing agent powder, as an important admixture, plays a key role in improving the working performance of concrete, optimizing the construction efficiency, and enhancing the structural strength. However, the correct grasp of its mixing and dosage is directly related to the quality of concrete. In this paper, the mixing method and dosage guide of high efficient water reducing agent powder will be elaborated in detail to provide useful reference for the practice of construction engineering.


The mixing method of superplasticizer powder


The mixing of high efficient water reducing agent powder should follow certain principles and methods. First of all, it should ensure that the water reducing agent powder is fully mixed with other components of concrete to avoid the situation of local concentration being too high or too low. Secondly, the mixing speed and mixing time should be controlled during the mixing process to ensure that the water reducing agent powder can be evenly dispersed in the concrete. Finally, the performance test of concrete should be carried out in time after mixing to ensure that the mixing effect meets the design requirements.


In practice, mechanical mixing or hand mixing can be used. Mechanical mixing is highly efficient and has good mixing uniformity, which is suitable for large-scale construction projects; while hand mixing is less efficient, but still has some practicality in small-scale or on-site construction. Regardless of the method, attention should be paid to controlling the temperature and humidity in the mixing process to avoid adverse effects on the performance of concrete.

The dosage of superplasticizer powder guidelines


The dosage of superplasticizer powder should be determined according to the strength grade of concrete, working performance requirements and construction conditions. Generally speaking, the dosage of water reducing agent powder should not be too much or too little, too much may lead to unstable concrete performance, too little may not achieve the expected results.


In practical application, the optimal dosage can be determined by test. First of all, according to the design requirements of the concrete proportion of the preparation of test blocks, and then add different amounts of water reducing agent powder for the test. By comparing the strength, fluidity and other performance indicators of different test blocks, the optimal amount of water reducing agent powder can be determined. It should be noted that different brands, different models of water reducing agent powder dosage may be different, so in the actual application should refer to the product specification or consult the advice of professionals.
