KALMATRON® KF-A provides decay-hydration of the cement grains from d =90 μ to d =16 μ in 4 to 6 hours instead of 4 to 5
decades with increased yield of cementitious paste up to 14%.
In practice this results in:
MIX DESIGN
No Fibers
No Fine Fillers
No Accelerators
No Water Reducers
No Super Plasticizers
No Strength & Density gainers
KALMATRON® KF-A at 8 ½ #
FRESH CONCRETE
No stiff batch flow even with low W/C
No bleeding water even with high W/C
No Anti Shrinkage Sprays and Shakes
No fill-ups onto concrete shrunk area
No rebound & slides on vertical areas
No curing controlling materials
No free lime & unhydrated cement
HARDENED CONCRETE
No curing required
No shrinkage cracks ever
No efflorescence appearing
No dilatation cuts of regular slabs
No edges curling even for thin slabs
No liquid penetration from both sides
No vapor emitting through the slab
It’s about new concrete economy: the KALMATRON® KF-A
admixture transforms a conventional concrete batch into a High
Performance concrete with cement reduction, no isolation, twice
shorter construction time and no curing afterwards.
Pictures below are sent by our customers with remarks such as "Ghost forklift tracks on a floor" and "Miracle of durability."
As a result of side by side application of regular concrete batch and the same with added KF-A, they show vivid difference of concretes performance applied at the same time. Concrete repair of trafficable structures published on www.parkingconcrete.com
CONCRETE FLOORS WITH KALMATRON® KF-A
USA patent #5,728,208
Inventions of the 21-st Century
Trace of forklift wheels vanishes onto the surface of concrete with
KALMATRON® KF-A. Applied at the same time, that concrete has
no byproducts of CO2 emitting like cement and free lime dusts.
It is a real Green Concrete!
