MasterAir AE 200
Air-entraining admixture for concretes with air content challenges
How does MasterAir AE 200 work?
MasterAir AE 200 air entraining admixture provides concrete with extra protection by creating air bubbles that are ultra-stable, small and closely spaced – a characteristic especially useful in the types of concrete known for their difficulty to entrain and maintain the air content desired.
Even when used at a lower dosage than standard air entraining admixtures, MasterAir AE 200 admixture meets the requirements of ASTM C 260, AASHTO M 154, and CRD-C 13.
Recommended uses:
- Concrete exposed to cyclic freezing and thawing
- Production of high-quality normal or lightweight concrete (heavyweight concrete normally does not contain entrained air)
What are the unique features of MasterAir AE 200?
- Ready-to-use in the proper concentration for rapid, accurate dispensing
- Greatly improved stability of air-entrainment
- Ultra stable air bubbles
What are the benefits of MasterAir AE 200?
- Improved air-void system in hardened concrete
- Improved ability to entrain and retain air in low-slump concrete, concrete containing high-carbon content fly ash, concrete using large amounts of fine materials, concrete using high-alkali cements, high-temperature concrete, and concrete with extended mixing times
- Increased resistance to damage from cyclic freezing and thawing
- Increased resistance to scaling from deicing salts
- Improved plasticity and workability
- Reduced permeability – increased water tightness
- Reduced segregation and bleeding
