Wetting agent for cement cas 61827-42-7 EXOwet N5

The wetting agent works synergistically with the superplasticizers to improve fluidization efficiency and increase the final strength of the concrete. Combined with air-entraining admixtures, it improves the distribution of pores in hardened concrete.

EXOwet N5 is a concentrated non-ionic agent with excellent wetting properties. The product is a slightly opalescent liquid with a pH of 5.0 ÷ 7.0 and a freezing point of about 5°C. The product replaces the previous generation agents that contained alkylphenols.

Agent dedicated to effective wetting of cement grains during the production of concrete and cement mortars. The product increases the final strength of concrete and improves the efficiency of the fluidizing admixture. It is compatible with other surfactants.

Product advantages:

• improves the efficiency of fluidizing and air-entraining admixtures,
• facilitates the dispersion of concrete components,
• increases the strength of set concrete,
• can be combined with various types of admixtures,
• high concentration of the product,
• strong wetting properties,
• free from ethoxylated alkylphenols (APEO-free).

Application:

• component of concrete admixtures.
