Concrete Super plasticizer Market
It also identifies the driving and restraining factors for the super plasticizers market with an analysis of trends, opportunities, burning issues, and winning imperatives. The market is segmented and the volume & revenue have been forecasted on the basis of major regions such as North America, Asia-Pacific, Europe, Middle East & Africa, and Rest of the World (ROW). Further, the market is segmented and revenues are forecasted on the basis of major applications of super plasticizers in various concretes such as ready-mix, precast, shotcrete, high-performance, and others.
Ready-mix concrete-major market for super plasticizers
The super plasticizers market is segmented into five types: Sulfonated naphthalene formaldehydes (SNF), sulfonated melamine formaldehydes (SMF), modified lignosulfonates (MLS), polycarboxylic acids (PC), and others. Each type of super plasticizer has its own properties and applications. These individual super plasticizers have application specific demands that are differentiated by placement, cost, and efficiency. Naphthalene super plasticizers are useful in ready-mix concrete applications to construct buildings, bridges, etc. Polycarboxylic acids are the latest and are expensive super plasticizer especially used in high-end constructions such as airports, government infrastructure, etc. The use of these super plasticizers increases the efficiency of their applications.
Global super plasticizer market to reach $4.6 billion by 2018
The market for super plasticizer in terms of revenue is expected to reach $4.6 billion by 2018, growing at a CAGR of 6.3% from 2013 to 2018. Asia-Pacific dominated the super plasticizers market revenues in 2012. Asia-Pacific is expected to remain the major by 2018, growing at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2013 to 2018. Middle East & Africa is expected to be the fastest growing markets, growing at a CAGR of 7.9% from 2013 to 2018.

    Plastic, it is a quintessential and vital aspect to today’s society. It has mouldered the modern world and transformed the overall quality of life. There is no human activity where plastics do not play a key role: from clothing to shelter, transportation to communication and entertainment to health care. Plastics have re-invented and malformed many everyday objects that are used in today’s society: from non-sick pans with Teflon and polyethylene for underwater cable coating. However, the plastic that has made the more significant impact on the 20th century is Polylactic Acid. Polylactic Acid, abbreviated to PLA, is a unique and different thermoplastic polymer than most others. This is because…

    Concrete is the most heavily used construction material in the modern world, and given the current global trends towards sustainability there is a need for significant advances, particularly in the construction sector. Geopolymer concrete (GPC) is a recent development in construction materials demonstrating similar structural properties to that of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) based concrete, yet whilst at the same time addressing the environmental footprint of the industry and economic concerns. GPC makes use of hazardous waste from several manufacturing process, which has obvious economic and environmental benefits. This allows GPC to have a far lower, in some cases up to 80%, embodied energy and carbon content than traditional concrete.…

    ratio but this workability is sometimes lost rapidly in the first hour after contact between the cement and water. This is especially the case for naphthalene-based and melamine-based superplasticizers when used with the so called incompatible cements. It is possible to reasonably predict the rheological behavior of a given Portland cement when used with a naphthalene-based superplasticizer once the physico-chemical composition and the properties of the clinker, of the cement, and of the superplasticizer are known. Different Portland cements, having a wide range of C3A contents (6.0 to 11.8%) and SO3 contents (0.09 to 2.90%), made with clinkers having a wide range of alkali contents (0.07 to 0.87% of Na2Oeq), have been selected to highlight the key cement factors that control the compatibility between ordinary Portland cements and the naphthalene-based superplasticizers. The soluble alkalis (in fact the soluble SO4 2- ions from alkalis), the fineness, the C3A content, and the type of CaSO4 of the cement are among the key cement factors that control the rheological behavior of a superplasicized cement paste and concrete. An optimum amount of soluble alkalis content exists and ranges between 0.4 and 0.6% of Na2Oeq in the cement. The rate of the naphthalene based superplasticizers’ adsorption on the cement particles and cement hydrates, which is influenced by these parameters, controls the loss of fluidity of the concrete. Moreover, this study has shown that concrete made with cements that have a low soluble alkali content not only lose their slump when under dosed in super plasticizer but also present severe segregation and bleeding when the dosage of the super plasticizer is slightly higher than the saturation point. In…

    Introduction Lehigh White Cement Company is committed to your success, with technical personnel who understand the interactions between white cement and common chemical admixtures ready to assist you. This technical bulletin discusses considerations experienced users of gray portland cement may overlook when making the switch to white cement. It is not intended to supplant the role of admixture suppliers who are the authorities on their products. Admixture company personnel have a comprehensive understanding of their products and we encourage you seek out these professionals early and often. Admixtures Modern portland cement concrete, including white cement-based mixes, rely on chemical admixtures to optimize their performance and reliability. Chemical admixtures are liquid solutions or dry compounds that when added to concrete during the mixing process can improve and/or control set times, workability, air content and hardened properties of the mix. They most often achieve these goals by altering the physical and chemical interactions of the cement and water to modify the paste portion of the mix. Admixtures are powerful tools that aid placement and enhance a structure’s service life; however, they are not a substitute for sound concrete mix designs and placement practices. In addition to contacting your admixture supplier and Lehigh technical representatives, we recommend the following references for more information on admixtures: • ACI Education Bulletin E4-03, Chemical Admixtures For Concrete • ACI 212.3R-04, Chemical Admixtures for Concrete • ACI 212.4R-04, Guide for the Use of High-Range Water-Reducing Admixtures (Superplasticizers) in Concrete Admixture Interactions - Low, Mid and High Range Water Reducers Chemical admixture/cement interactions normally correlate to the admixture base chemistry. Section 4.1 of ACI Education Bulletin E4-03 explains that it is appropriate to categorize chemical admixtures by…
