CHRYSO®Equalis

Setting Retarders and Rheology Expanders

Advanced setting retarders and rheology expanders for high-performance concrete

The CHRYSO® Equalis range features next-generation setting retarders and rheology expanders, designed to optimise the performance of concrete and mortar. These admixtures extend workability, regulate heat development during cement hydration, and enhance concrete flow, ensuring consistent quality even under challenging site conditions.

By improving both workability and rheology, CHRYSO® Equalis supports reliable placement over long periods, helping contractors maintain concrete performance during extended transport, complex pours, or hot climates. At the same time, the admixtures manage heat generated during hydration, reducing the risk of thermal cracking and contributing to durable, high-quality finishes.

Furthermore, the range is easy to use, with ready-to-use liquid formulations that integrate seamlessly into existing mix designs. Its adaptable performance makes CHRYSO® Equalis suitable for demanding environments, remote sites, and projects where precise control over concrete properties is essential.

Key Benefits of CHRYSO®Equalis

Engineered for versatility and performance, the CHRYSO® Equalis range enhances both concrete quality and construction efficiency:

  • Extended Workability: Maintains consistent concrete performance over long periods, ideal for extended transport or complex placements.

  • Heat Regulation: Controls temperature rise from cement hydration, reducing the risk of thermal cracking.

  • Improved Rheology: Enhances concrete flow and stability, ensuring uniform texture and finish.

  • Adaptability: Performs reliably in hot climates, remote sites, and demanding construction environments.

  • Ease of Use: Ready-to-use liquid admixtures that integrate seamlessly into existing concrete mix designs.

  • Compatibility: Can be used in combination with the CHRYSO®Omega, CHRYSO®Optima and CHRYSO®Premia plasticizer and superplasticizer ranges

The CHRYSO® Equalis range combines advanced technology with practical site adaptability. Its formulation extends workability and maintains consistent concrete performance, even under challenging conditions. At the same time, it regulates hydration heat, reduces thermal cracking risk, and improves rheology for cohesive, stable concrete that is easy to place and finish.

CHRYSO® Equalis 250

CHRYSO® Equalis 250 – Advanced Rheology Extender for Concrete CHRYSO® Equalis 250 is an advanced rheology extender developed by CHRYSO’s Research Centre, designed to improve concrete workability retention. It works best in combination with high-range water-reducing admixtures such as CHRYSO® Plast Omega, CHRYSO® Fluid Optima, or CHRYSO® Fluid Premia. This innovative admixture significantly enhances workability retention while minimally affecting concrete setting time and hardening. Because it does not substantially change the initial workability, CHRYSO® Equalis 250 allows precise adjustment of workability retention, with water reduction and initial workability fine-tuned through the high-range water reducer. Ideal for remote job sites, heavy traffic conditions, or environments with temperature fluctuations, CHRYSO® Equalis 250 helps avoid retempering at the delivery point. It is especially suitable for cements where maintaining workability is challenging, including high-temperature conditions.

CHRYSO EQUALIS 314

CHRYSO® Equalis 314 – Advanced Concrete Plasticiser for Consistency and Workability CHRYSO® Equalis 314 is a next-generation water-reducing plasticiser with advanced consistence-extending technology. Designed from hybrid polymer innovation, it ensures consistent fresh and hardened concrete, even with variable binder compositions. When used alongside high-range water reducers like CHRYSO® Omega, Optima, or Premia, it extends concrete workability, improves rheology over time, and reduces the need for retempering at delivery sites. Ideal for remote jobsites, heavy traffic, or temperature variations, Equalis 314 allows high-workability concrete without increasing water content.
