 TECHONYX RAPIDITE 2-IN-ONE COMPOUND

(Rapid setting and Anti-freeze compound)

In cold regions of world construction works used to be

stopped  due to extreme cold weather conditions. Additives for

enhancing cement water reaction where used at some place but

those where costly and beyond common mans economic position,

which was itself a problem. In order to overcome the problem a

compound was introduced which become famous in various regions

of world. Various types of set accelerators are developed as

on today, as much as low temperature or freezing and other

conditions at a place or region such type of Set accelerator

or RAPIDITE is used.

Description

RAPIDITE 2 IN 1 is a specially developed Concrete Set

Accelerator , a ready-to-use, liquid admixture. It accelerates

initial setting time(cement-water chemical reaction HYDRATION)

one to three times faster than normal mortar and concrete and

acts as anti-freeze within cement concrete. It improves

workability and strength while fastening the hydration of

cement . It makes the mix easier to place and speeds

construction by shortening the initial set and curing time.

Time and labor are saved, because forms and other protection

can be removed earlier, and finishing can be started.

PHYSICAL & CHEMICAL DATA

Dosage:-Mix with water part or wet concrete

1 ltr –3 ltr to a 50kg bag of cement in concrete . Site Engineer may increase or

decrease the ratio keeping in view the intensity of low temperature, Humidity, Site

conditions and concrete mix grade. e,g if ratio of sand-aggregate in mix is more

quantity of Rapidite 2 in 1 can be increased as need. For cold under water

constructions the ratio can be increased upto 5 ltrs / bag, but do not over dose.

Uses:-

RAPIDITE 2 in 1 is recommended for use during cool and cold weather to accelerate the set

time and reduce the risk of frozen mortar and concrete mixes. However, RAPIDITE 2 in 1 can

be used any time you want to accelerate the set time to decrease turnaround time.

RAPIDITE 2 in 1should not be limited to use during extreme cold months . Increased

workability and earlier strength are also obtained when temperatures are in the (10º to 30º

C) range, because any time the temperature drops below (21º C), there is a reduction in the

rate of cement hydration. During cold and hot weather application, ( Ref:-follow ACI 305 &

306 recommendations).

Specifications:-
ASTM C 494, Type C

Application:-

RAPIDITE 2 in 1 is employed in construction works of ,Buildings, Pavements, roads,

Tunnels, Railway track foundations, Bridges, Motorways, Hydral projects, Under water

constructions, under water concrete foundations, columns, Over head water tanks,

reservoirs, filtration plants, Helipads, Runways,

Cleaning of tools & Equipment

Tools and equipments can be cleaned with simple water.

Storage and shelf life

Store the material at a cool & dry place (preferably at 25˚C Temp. )It may freeze at

extreme minus temperatures if stored for long time but can be reconstituted by

stirring.

Packing

5 Litre, 20 Litre, 220 Litre, or as per requirements (For bulk quantities)

Precautions

·

Do not mix it with dry cement.

• Add to mixing water part or directly to the wet concrete mix.

• Maintain water-cement ratio as low as possible.

• Stir well before use.

· Do not mix it with other chemicals.

• Never use with sub-standard Cement/Sand/Aggregate (refer BIS specifications for quality parameters of the materials)

EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES

EYE CONTACT: If irritation or redness develops, move victim away from exposure

source and into fresh air. Flush eyes with water for fifteen (15) minutes. If symptoms

persist, seek medical attention.

SKIN CONTACT: Remove contaminated shoes and clothing. Cleanse affected area(s)

thoroughly by washing with mild soap and water. If irritation or redness develops and

persists, seek medical attention.

INHALATION: N/A

INGESTION: Induce vomiting or by touching a finger to the back of the victim’s throat.

Keep the victim’s head below the hips to prevent aspiration into the lungs. Consult a

physician, immediately

.
