Abstract:
Describes the use of balcrete foaming agent as air-entraining agent for entraining air in cement concrete. The addition of balcrete, in small quantities, increases the compressive strength of concrete made with lesis graded aggregates. The increased water-repelling property suggests the use of air-entrained concrete where chemical resistance is required. The other uses of balcrete as retarder and wetting agent are also briefly discussed.
