ARE 580FX SILKROAD® PCE SUPERPLASTICIZER
ARE 580FX Silkroad, industrial grade. Transparent liquid solution, 100% active in its liquid phase, with a solid content between 48.0% and 51.0%. Third-generation polycarboxylate-based superplasticizer, sulfate-free, developed for concrete and mortar requiring high water reduction, improved flowability, and increased early strength. ARE 580FX significantly reduces water demand and cement content while maintaining concrete workability for longer periods without excessive setting delay. It offers excellent viscosity-reducing properties, enhancing concrete pumpability and overall durability. Applications: general concrete with initial dispersion, high-flow self-compacting structures, and high-performance concretes. Properties: pH 3.0–5.0 (solution), viscosity 400–600 cP (at 20 °C), specific gravity 1.0946, CAS 1648593-57-0. Also known as polycarboxylate superplasticizer or polycarboxylate ether (PCE). Available in Monterrey, with shipping throughout Mexico.
