ADVA® LS Admixtures
Enable the production of less sticky, high strength concrete
The ADVA® LS family of admixtures is formulated with the latest patented polycarboxylate technology and is specially designed to reduce the stickiness of concrete, particularly high strength concrete.
High Strength Concrete Minus the Stickiness
A high strength concrete mix typically has a low water-to-cementitious ratio and/or a high cementitious content, and therefore is prone to stickiness. This sticky concrete is difficult to place and pump, and runs the risk of rejection at the job site.
With ADVA® LS admixtures, stickiness of concrete is significantly reduced while setting time remains neutral. They are designed specially to address stickiness in a concrete mix, and are also highly effective in mixes with poor quality aggregates.
