Description
Chryso®HRMK 100 is a highly processed aluminosilicate pozzolanic mineral derived from the clay mineral kaolinite. It dramatically improves the overall durability of concrete, primarily by reducing permeability and increasing compressive and flexural strengths. This product conforms to ASTM C618, Class N Specifications for Natural and Calcined Pozzolans. Highly refined kaolin clay is calcined in a vertically oriented multiple hearth furnace.
Metakaolin is an aluminosilicate material produced through the optimized calcination of kaolin clay. This process utilizes significantly less energy resources than cement production to improve concrete sustainability. As an engineered product, it delivers consistent physical and chemical properties and offers a more reliable supply than many byproduct-based materials.The Chryso®HRMK 100 admixture has a specific gravity of 2.6.
