Description
Sika ViscoFlow®-3400 LV is a liquid admixture for concrete based on unique polycarboxylate polymers. Sika ViscoFlow®-3400 LV is designed as a high range water reducer or super-plasticizer. It is particularly suited for use in concretes that require low water/cement ratios and / or high water reductions. The product provides fast adsorption resulting in highly efficient dispersion and potential reduction in mixing time.
Features and benefits:
- High range water reductions resulting in higher strengths and densities.
- Improved mixing times.
- Improved cohesion properties.
- Improved early and ultimate strengths.
- Excellent placement characteristics.
- Improved rheology.
- Improved durability.
- Reduced segregation and bleeding.
- Reduced drying shrinkage.
- Reduced mix costs.
