    GLENIUM 51
    A high performance concrete superplasticiser based on modified polycarboxylic ether

    Description Typical applications


    GLENIUM® 51 has been primarily developed for The excellent dispersion properties of GLENIUM®
    applications in the ready mixed and precast 51 make it the ideal admixture for precast and
    concrete industries where the highest durability readymixed concrete where low water cement
    and performance is required. ratios are required. This property allows the
    GLENIUM® 51 is free from chlorides and complies production of very high early and high ultimate
    with ASTM C494 Types A and F. strength concrete with minimal voids and
    GLENIUM® 51 is compatible with all Portland therefore optimum density. Due to the strength
    cements that meet recognised international development characteristics the elimination or
    standards. reduction of steam curing in precast works may
    be considered as an economical option.
    Chemistry and mechanism of action of
    GLENIUM® 51 can be used to produce very high

    GLENIUM 51 is differentiated from conventional RheoMATRIX for producing Smart Dynamic
    superplasticisers in that it is based on a unique Concrete (SDC). The technology produces

    GLENIUM® 51 is suitable for mixes containing: Safety precautions
    • microsilica GLENIUM® 51 contains no hazardous substances
    • pulverised fuel ash requiring labelling. For further information refer to
    • ground granulated blast furnace slag cement the Material Safety Data Sheet.

    Dosage
    The normal dosage for GLENIUM® 51 is between
    0.5 and 1.6 litres per 100 kg of cement
    (cementitious material). Dosages outside this
    range are permissible subject to trial mixes.
