Types of additives that can be used to change the workability of cement to specific requirements.
Mortar Plasticiser
Improves the workability and adhesion of mortars without adding lime whilst minimising any cracking or shrinkage, reducing water content of mortar.
Accelerator
Can be used either to increase the rate of stiffening and setting of the concrete or to increase the rate of hardening and early strength gain to allow earlier demoulding and handling. Most accelerators primarily achieve one rather than both of these functions.
Waterproofer
Waterproofs and strengthens mortar mixes.
