Compatibility with Other<br />
Admixtures<br />
In concrete containing ADVA <strong>108</strong> the use of<br />
an air-entraining agent (such as Daravair ®<br />
or Darex ® AEA ® ) is recommended to<br />
provide suitable air void parameters <strong>for</strong><br />
resistance against freeze-thaw attack. Due<br />
to synergistic effects between ADVA <strong>108</strong><br />
and air-entraining agents, the quantity of<br />
air-entraining admixture added to concrete<br />
containing ADVA <strong>108</strong> may be reduced. Please<br />
consult your Grace Representative <strong>for</strong> dosage<br />
guidance.<br />
Most water reducers or water-reducing<br />
retarders are compatible with ADVA <strong>108</strong><br />
<strong>Superplasticiser</strong> as long as they are added<br />
separately to the concrete.<br />
Caution should be exercised when using<br />
ADVA <strong>108</strong> with a retarder, as excessive<br />
retardation can occur if the admixture dosages<br />
are too high. Pre-testing of the concrete<br />
should be per<strong>for</strong>med to optimise dosages<br />
and addition times of these admixtures. The<br />
admixtures should not be in contact with each<br />
other be<strong>for</strong>e they enter the concrete.<br />
Dispensing Equipment<br />
To achieve maximum per<strong>for</strong>mance, circulation<br />
pump will be installed in the bulk storage<br />
tanks. A complete line of admixture dispensers<br />
is available. Accurate and easy to maintain, the<br />
dispensers are easily adapted to new or existing<br />
batching plants.<br />
Packaging<br />
ADVA <strong>108</strong> is available in bulk and in 205L<br />
drums. ADVA <strong>108</strong> contains no flammable<br />
ingredients. It will begin to freeze at<br />
approximately 0°C, but will return to full<br />
strength after thawing and thorough agitation.<br />
It storage, and <strong>for</strong> proper dispensing, ADVA<br />
<strong>108</strong> should be maintained at temperatures<br />
above 0°C.<br />
