LUDWIGSHAFEN, GERMANY: BASF SE said that it will present its broad portfolio of innovative Master Builders solutions. such as MasterEase, MasterFiber, Master X-Seed and MasterSuna and the benefits they provide for use in concrete production.
The innovations showcased will include the MasterProtect range of products for the surface protection of manufactured concrete products.
In high-performance concretes in particular, the MasterEase range of products provides exceptional rheological properties. The customer benefit: MasterEase ensures low viscosity and, at the same time, a high stability of the concrete mix. MasterEase also facilitates concrete pumping and installation.
During the construction of the “Tunnel de Champel” in Geneva, Switzerland, MasterEase from Master Builders Solutions proved to be the perfect superplasticizer for sprayed concrete. MasterEase reduces the viscosity of the concrete, making it less sticky and therefore easier to pump and apply. This is a significant advantage for sprayed concrete applications. MasterEase UG 3904 increases the workability time and, when applied, the concrete hardens more evenly on the tunnel wall. With the use of MasterEase, the Swiss tunneling contractor Marti Tunnelbau AG was able to switch to a more economical cement. This increased profitability by 5 percent, reduced CO2 emissions by 6 percent and extended workability time from one to four hours.
