Sika® AER PK

Air Entraining Admixture

A ready to use highly concentrated air entraining concrete admixture. Its efficiency is based upon number of correctly sized and evenly distributed air pores.

Sika® AER PK Provides the following properties:
  • Increased frost resistance
  • Resistance to de-icing salts
  • Improved workability
  • Improved durability
  • Increased cohesion reducing the risk of             seggregation
  • Reduced water content without loss of workability
  • Uneffected setting time even when overdosed

Application

Application Information

Dispensing

Sika AER is added to mixing water prior to its addition to

aggregates.
Consumption

Recommended Dosage

0.03 – 0.15% by weight of cement. Exact dosage rates are defined by air meter tests trial mixes.

Factors effecting air contents include: type, grading and proportion of sand, cement, aggregates, cement content per m³, types and fineness of cement, water/cement ratio and temperature. İn certain cases, it may be necessary to increase the 0.15% dosage rate.

Air meter tests should be taken consistently and adjustments made to the dosage rate in order to completely control the amount of air entrainment, which should be in the range of 3 – 6 %.
Application steps

CLEANING OF TOOLS

Clean all equipment and tools with water immediately after use.
