SUPERSLUMP is usually used in the production of high fluidity concrete [such as self-compacting concrete] and high strength concrete having low W/C.

SUPERSLUMP consists of SUPERSLUMP-PN, SUPERSLUMP-PR and SUPERSLUMP –AF is a high-range water reducing type superplasticizer which shows excellent performance in water reduction.

To improve slump retention in concrete, it is recommended that SUPERSLUMP-PN should be used with SUPERSLUMP-PR by proper ratio. Generally, the ratio of SUPERSLUMP-PR to SUPERSLUMP-PN at fixed total dosage increases, slump [or slump flow] retention is improved, while initial slump [or slump flow] decreases. The appropriate ratio of SUPERSLUMP –PR to SUPERSLUMP-PN should be determined by the test at a certain mixture proportion of concrete.

SUPERSLUMP-AF is an anti-foaming agent which is used with SUPERSLUMP-PN or SUPERSLUMP-PR. SUPERSLUMP-AF is compatible with Polycarboxylate type superplasticizer and most air-entraining agent, especially with Vinsol type [we recommend] air-entraining agent.

SUPERSLUMP is consisted of three components such as SUPERSLUMP-PN, SUPERSLUMP-PR and SUPERSLUMP-AF. SUPERSLUMP-PN is a high range water reducing type Superplasticizer which shows excellent performance in superplasticizing the concrete especially at early age. It also shows excellent performance in slump (slump flow) retention in high fluidity concrete without slump retention type Superplasticizer (SUPERSLUMP-PR).

To improve slump retention in medium-fluidity concrete or low-fluidity concrete, It is recommended that SUPERSLUMP-PN should be used with SUPERSLUMP-PR by proper ratio. Generally, the ratio SUPERSLUMP-PR of  increases, slump (or slump retention) is improved while initial slump (or slump flow) decreases. The appropriate ratio of SUPERSLUMP-PR to SUPERSLUMP-PN should be determined by the test at a certain mix proportion of concrete.

 Water Reduction of Superslump - PN

Effect of Superslump-WR on water reduction was compared to that of  PNS.

Water reduction was tested by mini-slump method.

For a given dosage, W/C ratio was controlled to give target paste flow of 13 + 0.5 cm.

Solid content of Superslump and PNS was 40%
