General
KELCO-CRETE® products are manufactured by CP Kelco (Shandong) Biological Company Limited.
KELCO-CRETE® DG-F diutan gum is a water soluble biopolymer produced by fermentation and supplied as a fine powder.
KELCO-CRETE® DG-F diutan gum hydrates in the mix water and acts as a viscosity-enhancing agent (with pseudoplastic/ shear-thinning rheology profile) to prevent bleeding and segregation.
KELCO-CRETE® DG-F diutan gum is suitable for stabilization of very fluid cement- and calcium sulphate-based mixtures, e.g. self-compacting and underwater concrete, cementitious or gypsum-based self-levelling, underlayments (SLUs), cementitious or gypsum-based flowing floor screeds, cementitious self-levelling decorative overlayments (SLOs), cementitious self-levelling industrial floors, non-shrink grouts (machinery grouts), injection mortars & post tension grouts, refractory materials.
