Glenium SKY 569  

An innovative third generation superplasticizer based on polycarboxylic ether (PCE) polymers. It is derived directly from the Total Performance Control™ concept. GLENIUM® SKY 569 is specially engineered for ready-mix concrete. Its particular configuration allows its delayed adsorption onto the cement particles and disperses them efficiently. As compared with other PCE superplasticizers, it is possible to obtain a high quality concrete mix with accelerated strength development and extended workability without delayed setting characteristics.

The Total Performance Control™ concept ensures that ready-mix producers, contractors and engineers get a concrete that is of the same high quality as originally specified; starting from production at the batching plant, to the delivery and application into place, and followed by its hardening process. Utilizing Rheodynamic™ concrete technology it provides a concrete mix with exceptional placing characteristics and accelerated cement hydration for early strength development and high-quality concrete.

Features and Benefits

GLENIUM® SKY 569 offers the following benefits for:

The ready-mix producer:
