Description
CHRYSO® Optima 1180 is a new generation superplasticiser, based on modified polycarboxylate. As a member of the Optima 1000 series of superplasticisers, increased consistence retention and low viscosity are key characteristics. This is particularly suited for extended transport and placement of concrete over large construction areas, long pumping distances, and precast facilities.
CHRYSO® Optima 1180 enables very low W/C ratios, with excellent tolerance to water addition, to be produced in the concrete at all levels of consistency.
