Description
Chryso®WRDA 17 is a liquid water‑reducing admixture developed for use in a wide range of ready‑mixed concrete applications under all seasonal conditions. It acts by adsorption on cement particles, producing a powerful deflocculating effect that improves concrete workability and performance.
Through effective water reduction, Chryso®WRDA 17 can be used to increase compressive strength or to reduce cement content, improving mix economics. The product also contributes to reduced concrete permeability. It is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure consistent quality and conforms to EN 934‑2.
Application areas
Chryso®WRDA 17 is suitable for:
- Ready‑mix concrete
- General construction concrete
- Applications requiring improved workability and durability
The product is compatible with most Portland cements and is effective in concretes containing fly ash or ground granulated blastfurnace slag (GGBS).
Chryso®WRDA 17 is compatible with Chryso admixtures commonly used in concrete production.
- Each admixture must be added separately
- The presence of other chemical admixtures may influence performance
Consult Chryso Technical Services when using combined admixture systems.
