| General Description |
REAL FUME reacts chemically with the calcium hydroxide in the cement paste which yields a calcium silicate hydrate gel that greatly enhances strength and durability. The ultra fine micro silica fills the voids between cement particles creating a highly dense, less permeable concrete.

Advantages /
Benefits |
| • |
High early strength gain for faster turnaround time |
| • |
Greatly improved freeze/thaw and scaling resistance |
| • |
Low permeability for greater resistance to water and salt penetration |
| • |
Increases abrasion and chemical resistance for a longer life expectancy |
| • |
High ultimate compressive and flexural strength for stronger and durable structural capacity |
| • |
Improves concrete performance to reduce column size, increases production and lower transportation and erection costs |

|
| Recommended Dosage |
REAL FUME is normally used at the rate of 5% - 15% by weight of cement. It is batch at the ready-mix plant in a manner similar to cement or other cementitious materials such as fly ash and granulated slag.
REAL FUME is recommended to be used with a high-range water reducer in order to provide maximum workability while maintaining the desired low water/cement ratio.
Note: For direction on the proper use of REAL FUME in specific applications, please contact our sales representative. |
