ART-ZQB
Hardening Accelerating Admixture For Sprayed Concrete

ART-ZQB is a hardening  accelerating  admixture for sprayed concrete which has the advantages of increase viscosity, good early strength, enhance strength, water retention. It is non-toxic,  non-flammable,  no corrosion of steel and harmless to human  health. It is a high-performance hardening accelerating admixture for use in the wet-mix spraying process. It has good early strength and long-term strength retention rate. It can effectively improve work efficiency and reduce engineering costs,  especially  suitable for early high-strength shotcrete. Compared with the main hardening accelerating admixture products on the market, it has obvious advantages in technical performance index and cost performance.

features of ART-ZQB

1

High Early Strength: This product has a significant early strength effect. When used in combination with our company's alkali-free liquid accelerator, the 8-hour strength of sprayed concrete can reach above 12 MPa, the 1-day compressive strength exceeds 18 MPa, and the 28-day compressive strength ratio can reach over 95%.


2

Low Rebound Rate: The overall rebound rate of sprayed concrete is  ≤10%.

3

Good Durability:  It  improves the durability indicators of sprayed concrete,  such as water resistance and freeze-thaw resistance.

4

Environmental Friendliness: Low  dust, no irritating odor, does not rust steel reinforcement, does not pollute the environment, and the usage process is non-toxic and harmless.

Application Case

  • Underground engineering

Mine roadways, traffic tunnels, hydraulic tunnels, underground railways and all kinds of underground tunnels(underground power station, warehouse, etc.) of the supporting lining of the shotcrete.

  • Rock engineering

Support in wall slopes, excavations, embankments, reservoir engineering , water channels, etc.

  • Repair and reinforcement works

Bridges, seawalls, repair dams, docks, cooling towers, chimneys and the reinforcement of buildings, and the chemical corrosion of oilfields, the building structure repair such as fires, earthquakes, explosion shock overload or poor construction, etc.

  • Protection engineering

All kinds of structure of the fire and corrosion protection, as well as waterproof and plugging engineering.

  • Fire resistant engineering

The construction and repair of the chimneys and various thermal furnace pits.


Usage Instructions

  • Recommended dosage: 4% – 6% of the total cementitious materials; exact rate must be determined in advance through trial  mixes  according to raw materials,  job-site conditions, construction codes and technical requirements.

  • During   spraying: Operate strictly in accordance with the specification, ensuring uniformity, levelness and compactness of the shotcrete layer.

  • Combined use with other admixtures: Check  compatibility beforehand to prevent precipitation or line blockage.

  • Curing:  Provide appropriate curing whenever project conditions or specifications require.

  • Temperature: Maintain substrate and ambient temperature above 5 ℃; low-temperature application can impair product performance.


Complies with the Following Standards

GB/T 8076-2008

ASTM C494 TYPE C

EN934-2


Packaging

Storage

  • It  should be stored in a cool and dry place,  avoiding direct sunlight,  and kept in a dedicated warehouse or a fixed  location maintain  temperature between  5  and 35 .

  • The effective storage period is  3 months. It can still be used  after being tested and verified to be qualified if it exceeds the time limit.


Precautions

  • When changing the type of cement or using newly delivered cement, a compatibility test should be conducted.

  • Do not use in combination with naphthalene-based admixtures.  When using in combination with other admixtures, compatibility tests should be performed.

  • Strictly follow the construction specifications during application.

  • The product information is only used to describe the product's  characteristics and functions, and it is not a guarantee. Users are also required to carefully test the product's functions and its suitability. The functions and suitability of the product must be verified through testing conducted by qualified professionals.


Legal Notes

  • Retaining or disclosing product samples without the company's explicit permission is strictly prohibited.

  • In addition to the product quality itself, the actual performance also depends on other uncontrollable factors. If there are uncontrollable factors, company cannot guarantee the performance of the product.

  • Users are requested to strictly follow the technical guidance and product instructions for use. The company shall not be liable for any consequences resulting from unauthorized changes to the product usage method without the company's authorization.


Application of ART-ZQB

Railway tunnel construction

In a tunnel of the Xi'an-Chongqing Railway, after using our ART-ZQB, the 8-hour strength of C30 high-early strength sprayed concrete was increased by 150%. After testing through large-panel spraying and cutting, as well as core drilling sampling, the compressive strength reached  11.3 MPa at 8 hours and  21.4 MPa at 1 day,  both of which meet the design requirements for high-early-strength sprayed concrete.
