Epocon 485 - Y

Epocon Sp 485 Y is a naphthalene sulfonate and lignosulfonate-based concrete additive that increases the early and final strength of concrete in summer months, acting as a water-reducing and fluidizing agent. It complies with EN 934-2 standard table 2. AZS 221 – 2006.

Areas of Use

In concrete where high early and final strength is required

In prefabricated and precast concrete

In the production of ready-mixed concrete, both with and without pumping

In densely packed concrete where placement is challenging

In concrete requiring dense and even surfaces

In concrete that needs long transportation and workability in summer months

In concrete that requires early stripping from forms
