Product Details

Sika AIR Air-Entraining Agent 55 Gallon Drum

Sika® AIR admixture is an aqueous solution of organic materials. Sika® AIR meets the requirements of ASTM C260 for air entraining admixtures.

Uses:

Sika® AIR is recommended for use whenever air-entrained concrete is desired. Ready-mix, precast, and block producers can achieve predictable and uniform entrained air contents in concrete, even where harsh lean mixes are used or fly ash is added to the concrete.

Advantages:

Durability:

 

  • Air entrainment is recognized as the most effective prevention against concrete scaling in exposed environments. Air-entrained concrete delivers particular benefits in the form of increased concrete durability. This is important in colder climates where frost and freeze-thaw cycles can cause scaling and damage to the concrete surface.
  • Air entraining agents help to prevent scaling by creating microscopic air voids that water trapped in the concrete can expand into when the concrete freezes, thus preventing cracks caused by the natural expansion. Entrained air voids in the concrete will also increase durability in harsh environments where concrete is exposed to
    deicing salts, marine salts, and sulfates.
  • Workability and placeability are also improved by the lubricating action of the microscopic bubbles in the concrete. Concrete will flow better, and bleeding and shrinkage will be reduced because less water is needed to obtain the desired workability.
