| Recommended Dosage |
REAL MIX is recommended at a typical dosage rate 400ml - 800ml per 100kg of cement for most concrete mixes containing average concrete ingredients. The dosage rate can be modified to fit variations in cement, aggregate or job conditions or where special performance characteristics are required.
REAL POINT SDN BHD recommends that special mix designs with dosage rates outside recommended rate, be developed in consultation with our representative to achieve specified requirements.
The optimum dosage should be determined by site trails with the particular raw materials. As a guide, the dosage rate is normally in the range of 0.4 litres to 0.8 litres per 100kg of cement. |
|
Effects of
Overdosing |
An overdose of double the recommended rate of REAL MIX will result in significant retardation. When overdosing occurs, it is important to maintain adequate curing so that the ultimate strength of the concrete will not be adversely affected but will increase ultimately. |
