It meets the requirements of ASTM C 260, Features AASHTO M 154 and CRD-C 13. Ready-to-use in the proper concentration for rapid,accurate dispensing Applications Recommended for use in: Benefits Concrete exposed to Improved resistance to damage from cyclic freezing and thawing cyclic freezing and 4+ Improved resistance to scaling from deicing salts thawing Improved plasticity and workability Production of high-quality ut Reduced permeability—increased watertightness normal or lightweight Reduced segregation and bleeding concrete(heavyweight concrete normally does not Performance Characteristics contain entrained air) Concrete durability research has established that the best protection for concrete from the adverse effects of freezing and thawing cycles and deicing salts results from: proper air content in the hardened concrete,a suitable air-void system in terms of bubble size and spacing,and adequate concrete strength,assuming the use of sound aggregates and proper mixing,transporting,placing,consolidation,finishing and curing techniques. MB-AE 90 admixture can be used to obtain adequate freeze-thaw durability in a properly proportioned concrete mixture, if standard industry practices are followed. Air Content Determination:The total air content of normal weight concrete should be measured in strict accordance with ASTM C 231,"Standard Test Method for Air Content of Freshly Mixed Concrete by the Pressure Method"or ASTM C 173/C 173M, "Standard Test Method for Air Content of Freshly Mixed Concrete by the Volumetric Method." The air content of lightweight concrete should only be determined using the Volumetric Method.The air content should be verified by calculating the gravimetric air content in accordance with ASTM C 138/C 138M,"Standard Test Method for Density(Unit Weight), Yield,and Air Content(Gravimetric)of Concrete." If the total air content,as measured by the Pressure Method or Volumetric Method and as verified by the Gravimetric Method, deviates by more than 1-1/2%,the cause should be determined and corrected through equipment calibration or by whatever process is deemed necessary. Guidelines for Use Dosage:There is no standard dosage for MB-AE 90 admixture.The exact quantity of air-entraining admixture needed for a given air content of concrete varies because of differences in concrete-making materials and ambient conditions.Typical factors that might influence the amount of air entrained include:temperature,cementitious materials, sand gradation,sand-aggregate ratio,mixture proportions,slump, means of conveying and placement,consolidation and finishing technique. Master Builders Product Data: Iv The amount of MB-AE 90 admixture used will depend upon the Product Notes amount of entrained air required under actual job conditions. Corrosivity—Non-Chloride,Non-Corrosive: MB-AE 90 In a trial mixture,use 1/4 to 4 fl oz/cwt(16-260 mU100 kg) admixture will neither initiate nor promote corrosion of of cementitious material.

Moderate to extended retardation-depending on the dosage rate Dead-load deflection can take place(before concrete sets)in extended pours for Applications bridge decks,cantilevers,nonshored structural elements,etc. Recommended for use in: Benefits • Prestressed concrete rti Flexibility in the scheduling of placing and finishing operations • Precast concrete r� Offsets the effects of early hardening during extended delays between mixing ?l Reinforced concrete and placing • Shotcrete Helps eliminate cold joints • Lightweight or normal Peak temperature and/or rate of temperature rise in mass concrete lowered thereby weight concrete reducing thermal cracking • Pumped concrete Increased compressive and flexural strength • 4x4TM Concrete Pervious Concrete Performance Characteristics • Rheodynamic®Self- Concrete produced with Pozzolith 300 R admixture will have rapid strength development Consolidating Concrete after initial set occurs.It develops higher early(24-hour)and ultimate strengths than plain (SCC) concrete when used within the recommended dosage range,under normal,comparable curing conditions. When Pozzolith 300 R admixture is used in heat-cured concrete,the length of the preheating period should be increased until initial set of the concrete is achieved.The actual heat-curing period is then reduced accordingly to maintain existing production cycles without sacrificing early or ultimate strengths. Rate of Hardening:The temperature of the concrete mixture and the ambient temperature(forms,earth,reinforcement,air,etc.)affect the hardening rate of concrete. At higher temperatures,concrete hardens more rapidly which may cause problems with placing and finishing.Pozzolith 300 R admixture retards the set of concrete.Within the normal dosage range,it will generally extend the working and setting times of concrete containing normal portland cement approximately 1 hour to 5 hours compared to that of a plain concrete mixture,depending on job materials and temperatures. Trial mixtures should be made with job materials approximating job conditions to determine the dosage required.
