Set Accelerating Admixture
Speak to an Expert

Description

Chryso®Morset Set Accelerator is a non-chloride, non-corrosive admixture that accelerates cement hydration resulting in shortened setting times and increased early strengths. Chryso®Morset Set Accelerator is an aqueous solution of organic and inorganic compounds and does not contain any chloride compounds such as calcium chloride. Chryso®Morset Set Accelerator is manufactured to comply with the requirements of ASTM C1384, Standard Specification for Admixtures for Masonry Mortars.

Chryso®Morset Set Accelerator is used wherever it is desirable to reduce the setting time of mortar or stucco. Chryso®Morset Set Accelerator is not an anti-freeze admixture nor is it intended to prevent mortar from freezing. When used in conjunction with cold weather practices (see CHMA TEK 3-01C), Chryso®Morset Set Accelerator provides superior performance and allows for construction to continue.

Benefits

Chryso®Morset Set Accelerator speeds up the reaction between the cement and the water so that at any given time, more of the gel, the binder that glues the sand particles together, is produced. The gel provides the set and strength properties of the mortar. It is produced more rapidly in mortar admixed with MORSET and is responsible for the set acceleration. The formation of gel is accompanied by the generation of heat. Chryso®Morset Set Accelerator, a non-corrosive, non-chloride set accelerating admixture provides setting time results and early strength development similar to calcium chloride, but without the corrosive effect of calcium chloride. Chryso®Morset Set Accelerator can therefore be used where potential corrosion of embedded steel must be avoided. It can be used where uncoated or coated steel reinforcement or ties are present.
