MasterRoc SA167

MasterRoc SA167:
DESCRIPTION

Mastering underground construction challenges with MasterRoc SA167

The MasterRoc product range is comprised of market-leading innovations and application expertise for the tunneling and mining industries.

In addition to a wide range of products, our globally connected team assists our customers in selecting the right products and systems, providing the best, most cost-effective and complete solutions based on innovation and technology, allowing our customers to operate successfully and to the highest safety standards.

MasterRoc SA167 is a high performance alkali-free set accelerator designed for use in the wet and dry mix spraying process.  MasterRoc SA167 is a liquid additive whose dosage can be varied to the desired setting and hardening times.

Recommended uses:

MasterRoc SA167 is suitable for all applications where high early strength, high final strength, extremely large layer thickness in a single application and high slump (>200mm) are required:

  • For temporary and final rock support linings
  • In tunnels
  • In mining
  • Embankment stabilization
Features and benefits:

MasterRoc SA167 is the ideal accelerator for wet-mix sprayed concrete for rock support because 

The quick setting properties allow:

  • Overhead layer thicknesses of 150mm in a single application (as with aluminate based accelerators).
  • Works with even high slump (>200mm).
  • Rapid work progress.

The unique formula:

  • Provides good early strength development.
  • Limits the decrease of final strength, associated with accelerators.

MasterRoc SA167 is a liquid product and thus:

  • Provides easy handling, as well as easy and efficient addition to the sprayed concrete.
  • Produces little dust and therefore a better working environment.

The alkali-free nature of the product:

  • Improves safety, a major factor.
  • Provides an improved working environment.

Reduces required handling precautions and hence improves economy: 

Evaluation of setting time and 24 hour strength characteristics (without addition of slump killing system), in a norm DIN mortar.

Remark:

If the setting times are poor, the 28 day strength is usually good. With a slow setting it is still possible to apply 50-70mm on the wall and 30-50mm overhead.

Compatibility with other accelerators:

Do not mix MasterRoc SA167 with other accelerators as this will cause immediate clogging of pumps and hoses

Estimating data: 

The dosage of MasterRoc SA16 7depends on the temperature of concrete, air and substrate. Another important factor influencing the dosage, is the reactivity of the cement used. Depending on required setting time and early strength requirements, the consumption of MasterRoc SA167 normally ranges between 3-10% of the binder weight. Overdosing (>10%) may result in decreased final strength.

Packaging:

MasterRoc SA167 is available in 1400 KG IBCs and bulk.

Storage/shelf life:
  • MasterRoc SA 167 must be stored at minimum +5°C and maximum +35°C (optimum temperature for storage and performance +20°C). Must be kept in closed containers made of plastic, glass fibre or stainless steel.
  • MasterRoc SA 167 must not be stored in normal steel containers as the pH can cause corrosion that might affect the performance of the product.
  • After the prolonged storage we recommend that MasterRoc SA 167 be always fully agitated prior to use by mechanical stirring or re-circulation pumping. Agitation by compressed air is not advised.
  • If stored in tightly closed original containers under the above given conditions, MasterRoc SA 167 has a shelf life of 3 months. Periodical remixing can extend the shelf life up to 6 or more months.

MasterGlenium SKY 8408

MasterGlenium SKY8402- High-range water-reducing and slump retaining concrete admixture
DESCRIPTION

The MasterGlenium product offering from BASF comprises new generation high-range water-reducing admixtures that are specially formulated for applications where slump retention, high/early strengths and durability are required. Concrete mixtures containing these premier products can be optimized for delivery in remote locations and for use in hot and cold climates.

MasterGlenium® SKYSKY8402 is a new generation superplasticiser for concrete. It contains polycarboxylate ether polymers and is specially formulated for ready-mix concrete where slump retention, high strength and durability are required in hot climates. The excellent dispersion effect makes MasterGlenium® SKY8402 the ideal admixture for the ready-mix concrete industry. The ability to work with low water /cement ratios and still obtain extended slump retention allows for the manufacture of high quality concrete. MasterGlenium® SKY8402  is free of chloride and complies with MNS ASTM C 494/C 494 M, and is also compatible with all cements meeting recognised international standards.

MasterGlenium® SKY8402 is differentiated from conventional superplasticisers in that it is based on a unique polycarboxylate ether polymer with long lateral chains. This greatly improves cement dispersion. At the start of the mixing process the same electrostatic dispersion occurs as described previously, but the presence of the lateral chains, linked to the polymer backbone, generates a steric hindrance which stabilises the cement particles capacity to separate and disperse.

This mechanism provides flowable concrete with greatly reduced water demand.

Recommended for:
  • faster mixing logistics during large jobs
  • high flowability concrete
  • highly durable concrete
  • ready-mixed concrete
  • mass concrete
  • long distance transport
  • pumped concrete
  • hot weather concreting

concrete with less water content than with conventional admixtures


FIELDS OF APPLICATION

Dispensing

MasterGlenium® SKY8402 is a ready-to-use admixture to be added to the concrete mix as a separate component. Optimal mixing water reduction is obtained if MasterGlenium® SKY8402 is poured into the concrete mix right after the addition of the first 50 -70% of the mixing water. Avoid adding the admixture to the dry aggregates. A separate dispenser and feed line must be used.


DOSAGE

Dosage of MasterGlenium® SKY8402 depends on the mix design, ambient conditions and degree of water reduction and workability required. MasterGlenium® SKY8402 is dispensed at a rate of 800ml to 2,000ml per 100 kg of cementitious material. Other dosages may also be used depending on the specific working conditions. Trial mixes should be made with job materials to determine the optimum dosage required for a specified job requirement.

PACKAGING

MasterGlenium® SKY8402 is available in 1000KG IBCs or by bulk delivery.

SHELF LIFE

MasterGlenium® SKY8402 can be stored for 12 months if stored at a temperature above 0ºC and in tightly sealed original containers. If frozen, thaw it and completely reconstitute by mild agitation. Do not use compressed air.
