High Water Reduction & Superior WorkabilitySodium naphthalene formaldehyde is renowned for its high water-reducing rate, which allows the production of high-strength concrete with improved flow and workability. By reducing water content without degrading the concrete's consistency, SNF enhances overall performance and durability, making it an essential additive for modern construction projects, from precast elements to cast-in-situ structures.
Flexible Packaging & Extended Shelf LifeSupplied in 25 kg bags or tailored packaging options, SNF is designed to suit diverse industry needs. With a shelf life of 12 months from manufacture, it remains effective if kept in a dry and well-ventilated location, away from moisture. Proper storage ensures the product retains its water-reducing and dispersing capabilities, preserving quality for long-term use.
FAQ's of Sodium naphthalene formaldehyde:
Q: How should Sodium naphthalene formaldehyde be stored to maintain its effectiveness?
A: To maintain its effectiveness, Sodium naphthalene formaldehyde should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated area away from moisture. Proper storage ensures it retains its water-reducing properties for up to 12 months from the date of manufacture.
Q: What is the recommended dosage of SNF when used as a concrete admixture?
A: The recommended dosage of SNF ranges between 0.5% to 1.5% of the cement weight, depending on required workability and strength. Always conduct a trial mix to determine the optimal amount for your specific application.
Q: What makes Sodium naphthalene formaldehyde beneficial in concrete mixtures?
A: SNF provides a high water-reducing rate and improves workability, allowing easier mixing and pouring. This results in higher strength, enhanced durability, and superior concrete surface finish without increasing water content.
Q: What packaging options are available for Sodium naphthalene formaldehyde?
A: SNF is commonly supplied in 25 kg bags, but customized packaging options can be arranged to meet specific project or transport needs, providing flexibility for various customers.
Q: Is Sodium naphthalene formaldehyde compatible with all types of cement?
A: SNF is compatible with most cement types, making it a versatile superplasticizer suitable for a wide range of concrete and construction applications.
Q: When is the best stage to add SNF into concrete?
A: It is best to add SNF during the mixing process, ideally with the mixing water or immediately after to ensure even dispersion and maximum water-reducing effect throughout the mix.
