Description
Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA-2488) is an excellent dry mix material known to improve the workability of concrete. It is highly used as an additive to cement and mortar to enhance fluidity & cohesion and decrease the drying time of finished concrete surfaces.
Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA-2488) stands out with a pH value of 5-7 and a purity of approximately 93.5%, ensuring optimal performance. Its viscosity ranges between 45-58 m.pa.s, complemented by a hydrolysis degree of 87-89% and a fine mesh size of 120, making it a top choice for high-quality applications.
Regarding the dosage of Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA-2488), then it is recommended that 0.5 to 1.0% by weight of total mix i.e., 5 to 10 Kg in 1 Ton). To dissolve it, the suggested method is to add water (below 30°C) to the dissolving tank, start blending, and slowly add PVA at a rate of 10 kg/min. Ensure full dispersion (10-20 minutes), then heat the solution to 90°C for 1 hour to dissolve completely.
