APPLE CHEMIE-VISCOFLUX TECHNOLOGY
At Apple Chemie, our
commitment to innovation and our devotion to new products development has
discovered a new patented technology called ViscoFlux. With this technology, we
are manufacturing the advanced Polycarboxylate ether (PCE) bases raw material
for plasticizers and superplasticizers.
We have specifically
developed two separate varieties of polymers to cater the market demand for
high slump retention and high water reduction. These properties attributed by
the Viscoflux polymers have been tested and confirmed by laboratories from
Europe, China, and India.
This product not only
performs better than the existing products in the market but is economical as
well. We are suppliers for many national and international construction
chemical manufacturers across India and overseas. Molecular weight of the PCE
polymer, its charge density, length as well as density of side chains and ratio
of the length of the backbone to length of side chains determine the adsorption
behavior of the PCE including the amount adsorbed & amount adsorbed extent
of the surface of the cement particles occupied & left free for water for
hydration.
Depending on the
sensitivity of the link between the backbone (comb body) and the pendant side
chains (teeth of the comb) to highly alkaline pore solution, the PCEs can be
classified into 2 broad categories-
• ViscoFlux SRx — High
Slump Retaining Polymer
• ViscoFlux Dx — High
Water reducing Polymer
ViscoFlux is a green
technology developed by Apple Chemie India Pvt. Ltd. which enable the use of
supplementary cementitious materials example silica fume, fly ash, blast
furnace slag etc. in Portland cement concrete and allow lowering of consumption
of cement, thus capping the CO2 produced in manufacturing of cement.
It also gives more strength in less water cement ratio thus enabling saving of
water. The ViscoFlux technology minimizes W/C ratio and also on addition of
supplementary cementitious material in concrete it further adds durability to
concrete, eventually increasing the lifecycle of concrete. Apple Chemie being a
member of IGBC (INDIAN GREEN BUILDING COUNCIL) has always strived for Green
Initiatives. Thus, we also encourage to use ViscoFlux and other Green products
of Apple Chemie to help in contributing to resource conservation, environment
protection and in sustainable development for future.
