KELCO-CRETE DG
High-performance stabilizer in powder form for suspensions and dry-mix systems with minimal impact on flow and workability due to shear-thinning behavior.
General
KELCO-CRETE® products are manufactured by CP Kelco (Shandong) Biological Company Limited.
KELCO-CRETE® DG diutan gum is a water soluble biopolymer produced by fermentation and supplied in powder form. KELCO-CRETE® DG diutan gum hydrates in the mix water and acts as a viscosityenhancing agent (with pseudoplastic/shear thinning rheology profile) to prevent bleeding and segregation.
KELCO-CRETE® DG diutan gum is suitable for stabilization of very fluid cement-based mixtures, e.g. self-compacting concrete (SCC), underwater concrete (anti-wash out), pervious concrete, pigmented concrete, flowable mortars and grouts.
Benefits
- Increased yield stress
- Highly efficient
- Highly shear-thinning
