SikaPaver®-2 HC KE
High performance compaction aid for semi-dry / no-slump concrete products
SikaPaver®-2 HC KE is a high performance compaction aid for semi-dry/no-slump concrete based on the Sika® ViscoCrete® technology. This innovative admixture technology has been specifically developed for use in low cement content semi-dry/no-slump mixes where good surface/flanks finish and high early strength are required.
SikaPaver®-2 HC KE offers substantial benefits to the producer of semi-dry/no-slump concrete products:
- Efficient dispersion and distribution of cement, additives and pigments
- Improved mould filling
- Optimised compaction process Minimized friction between the mould and the concrete
- Reduced adhesion/stickiness between top layer concrete and pressing head/tamper
- Increased “green” strength after immediate demoulding
- Less variation in densities and strengths across the area of the mould
- More economic concrete mix designs
- Less customer returns and second grade products
- Closer textured, smoother and more uniform surfaces
- Consistent product quality
- Minimized damage due to early handling Enhanced early and ultimate compressive and tensile strengths
- Increased freeze-thaw resistance
- Improved durability and life expectancy
