Customer Case: Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer Powder in Building Construction Applications
In modern building construction, achieving high workability, strength, and cost efficiency has become increasingly important. A construction material producer in Southeast Asia was facing challenges in improving concrete performance while maintaining stable quality in large-scale projects.
By adopting Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer Powder, the customer successfully optimized their concrete and dry mortar formulations for multiple building applications.
Application Background
The customer mainly supplies materials for:
Ready-mix concrete for residential and commercial buildings
Dry mortar for flooring, plastering, and repair works
Previously, traditional admixtures caused unstable slump retention, high water demand, and inconsistent on-site performance, especially under hot climate conditions.
Solution: PCE Powder for Concrete and Dry Mortar
After testing our PCE Powder for Concrete, the customer integrated it into their formulations as a High Range Water Reducer Powder and Dry Mortar Admixture.
Key improvements included:
Significant reduction in water demand while maintaining excellent flowability
Improved slump retention for ready-mix concrete during transportation
Enhanced early and final strength development
More consistent performance in dry mortar applications
As a Ready Mix Concrete Additive, Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer Powder provided stable dispersion of cement particles, resulting in smoother construction and reduced material waste.
Results Achieved
After implementation, the customer reported:
More stable concrete quality across different job sites
Improved workability for both concrete and dry mortar
Lower overall admixture dosage compared to previous products
Customer feedback:
“The PCE Powder showed very stable performance and significantly improved our concrete workability and consistency.”
Conclusion
This case demonstrates how Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer Powder can be effectively applied in building construction, especially for ready-mix concrete and dry mortar systems, helping customers improve performance while optimizing costs.
