REPORT DESCRIPTION<br />

<strong>Construction</strong> <strong>Chemicals</strong> <strong>Market</strong>:Overview<br />

<strong>Construction</strong> chemicals are additives that are used with concrete, cement, <strong>and</strong> other construction materials to<br />

provide additional durability <strong>and</strong> workability to various structures. The type of chemical to be used depends on<br />

the size <strong>and</strong> nature of the project. <strong>Construction</strong> chemicals are used to obtain certain desired characteristics in<br />

concrete such as high workability, high compressive strength, <strong>and</strong> high performance <strong>and</strong> durability parameters to<br />

meet the requirement of complexity of modern structures. Hardeners are used with structures to seal them against<br />

moisture <strong>and</strong> making them dustproof by bonding the crystalline structure of cement.<br />

Admixtures can modify properties such as workability, water reduction, heat of hydration, dispersion <strong>and</strong> airentrainment,<br />

accelerating or retarding setting time, impermeability <strong>and</strong> durability factors. Commonly used<br />

admixtures are hydro carbolic acid salts <strong>and</strong> ligno-sulphonates. <strong>Construction</strong> chemicals provide structures with<br />

enhanced bond strength <strong>and</strong> moisture retention, increased crack resistance of mortar, increased yield with same<br />

quantity of construction materials, decreases drying time of mortar <strong>and</strong> improves appearance.<br />
