V-MAR® VSC500

Viscosity Modifying Admixture

Description

V-MAR® VSC500 is a new generation liquid admixture designed to enable the production of superior quality pervious concrete by imparting an enhanced paste rheology and controlling the hydration of cementitious materials. V-MAR® VSC500 incorporates a unique, patented biopolymer, and is manufactured under closely controlled conditions to provide uniform, predictable performance.

The V-MAR® VSC500 admixture is supplied as a ready to use liquid. One gallon weighs approximately 8.7 lbs (1.05 kg/L). V-MAR® VSC500 contains no intentionally added chlorides. V-MAR® VSC500 meets the requirements of ASTM C494 as a Type D water-reducing and retarding admixture.
