Shrinkage Reducing Admixture
EUCON SRA FLOOR is a ready to use liquid admixture designed to reduce drying shrinkage and the potential for subsequent cracking in concrete and mortar. EUCON SRA FLOOR reduces the surface tension of the meniscus formed at the air-water interface in the pores. This reduces the internal tensile stresses that causes shrinkage of the cement paste. A drying shrinkage reduction of up to 50% can be observed, but usually in the range of 35%-50%. EUCON SRA FLOOR does not contain added chlorides and will not promote the corrosion of steel.
Features & Benefits
- Typically, shrinkage may be reduced up to 50% at one year and beyond, depending on the cement used
