ASCO 93 is a high-performance powder additive, specially formulated for air entraining purposes in the construction chemicals industry, based on an anionic surfactant. By creating and stabilizing microscopic air bubbles in concrete, mortar, and gypsum mixtures, it significantly increases the material's resistance to freeze-thaw cycles. Furthermore, it improves workability by offering excellent viscosity and foaming properties, minimizing the risks of segregation and bleeding.

Technical Specifications

Applications

ASCO 93 can be safely used in a wide variety of mix designs to achieve the desired air content, appropriate bubble size, void factor, and distribution:

• Dry mix additives, Gypsum/Mortar/Grout products (Plaster, Gypsum board, etc.)
• Wet concrete, Air-entrained concrete, Paving concrete (Interlocking pavers, Paving stones)

Storage and Packaging Information

• Available in 25 kg powder bags.
• Should be stored in its original, unopened packaging.
• Should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, protected from direct sunlight.
• Should be kept in a place protected from excessive heat (not exceeding 40°C).
• High stacking should be avoided as it may cause caking (agglomeration) when exposed to pressure and friction.
