Superplasticiser
Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer (Powder)
A powder polycarboxylate superplasticiser used to improve mortar flow and reduce mixing water.
Powdered polycarboxylate ether (PCE) superplasticizer for dry-mix mortar, grout, self-leveling and concrete.
- Packing
- 25 kg moisture-resistant woven bags with an inner PE liner; other pack sizes can be supplied on request.
- Storage
- Store in a cool, dry, ventilated place, sealed and away from moisture and direct sunlight; reseal opened bags promptly.
Product Detail
Product overview
Powder polycarboxylate superplasticiser (PCE) based on grafted copolymers. Compared with traditional naphthalene-based products it works at a lower dosage with better water reduction.
Main uses
Self-levelling compounds, grouts, non-shrink grouts, highly flowable rendering and repair mortars, and gypsum-based self-levelling systems.
What it solves
- Flow: smoother spreading and flatter surfaces in self-levelling mortars
- Mixing water: less water needed for the same flow
- Early strength: shorter curing and opening times
- Durability: low alkali and low chloride content
Choosing a grade
Dosage needs to be established by formulation trials; start with a small laboratory batch. We can help you adjust dosage and mix design.

Technical Data
Key Features
- High water reduction, lowering the mixing water demand of cement-based systems.
- High slump retention, keeping mortar and concrete workable over time.
- Wide adaptability with various cements, giving stable performance across cement sources.
- Greatly improves the early and late strength of dry-mixed mortar.
- Effective at low dosage, which supports efficient formulation design.
- Anti-shrinkage performance that helps limit cracking risk.
- Excellent durability, with reduced cracking, shrinkage and creep.
- Powder form for dry-mix production, blending evenly with cement, sand and other dry additives.
Applications
- Self-leveling underlayments
- Dry-mixed mortar and dry-mixed concrete
- Non-shrink grout
- Waterproof mortar
- Repair mortar
- Injection mortar
- Tile adhesives and joint fillers
- Ultra-high performance concrete and precast concrete products
Dosage & Usage
- 01Typical dosage is 0.1%-0.5% by weight of the binder (cement and other cementitious materials), depending on the system.
- 02The optimum dosage must be established by a small trial batch, because it depends on the binder system, aggregate grading and the other admixtures used.
- 03In dry-mix production, pre-blend the powder homogeneously with cement, sand and the other dry additives before water is added, so that it disperses evenly.
- 04When the cement source or the admixture combination changes, re-check flow, setting and strength in a new trial batch before running production.
