Concrete stone with super plasticizer. How to make self consolidated high strength concrete stone 

Thank you for the comment.

Yes, absolutely. The mix designs are very flexible. The superplasticizer just guarantees lower water demand in your mix, the consistency you wish to achieve is all up to you

Super plasticizer works with cementitious material, it doesn't react to sand or any other filler. You can definitely use plasticizer with Portland cement to cut your water usage and make your concrete stronger, but you will have to test plasticizer on your cement. We offer high quality plasticizer globmarble.com/concrete-additive-water-reducer-super-plasticizer.html with dosage rate 0.5-1% by cement weight. If you use other plasticizer, check dosage rate prior using.

I would reccomend not using superplasticizer because its job is to make the concrete runny. Instead, use some 13 mm fibers and play around with water dosages until you get a consistency you like :) globmarble.com/alkali-resistant-glass-fiber-reinforced-concrete.html

@@GlobMarble will do thanks for the information!

You can cast and walk off your job if you don't use fast setting additives :) Concrete can take anywhere from 8 hrs to 24 hrs to set, it all depends on what concrete mix is used, weather conditions, the size of the mold, and the amount of water used. The cycle time can be reduced further by using only enough water in the mix as is absolutely needed, or using a faster setting concrete mix. Make sure that the concrete has dried and hardened before you try to release it from the mold, concrete will shrink slightly, during the hardening process, and will be easier to remove, just turn the mold over and pull with even pressure from the edges, do not use tools to pry the part out, as this can damage the part and mold.

To prevent over dosage and get expected result, please check manufacturer's dosage instruction prior use other brand " liquid super plasticizer" . Our plasticizer dosage rate 0.5-1% by cement weight.

Sand has to be dry. if you have a wet send you should reduce your W/C ratio. Send your mix details and material weight details to info@globmarble.com we'll figure out what you did wrong.

You're trying to apply concrete on the wall or its a bit difficult to apply casted stone to the wall?

Thank you! Cheers!

The tile is made form concrete so there is a degree of sound and thermal insulation. Also, it isnt waterproof, only water repellant, so you can use a sealer on it to make is 100% waterproof. you can find our sealers here- globmarble.com/decorative-concretes/concrete-sealers/

Every mold has the specific casting instructions in the description on our website. globmarble.com/veneer-stone-mold-vs-101.html

You can order superplasticizer on our web site globmarble.com/concrete-additive-water-reducer-super-plasticizer.html

Yes, we sell and ship it worldwide- globmarble.com/concrete-additive-water-reducer-super-plasticizer.html

You can use plasticizer with Gypsum. We'll make the plasticizer with gypsum casting video soon.

@@GlobMarble thank you for your response

Plasticizer can be used with any Cementitious type material. You can order any quantity to test at globmarble.com/concrete-additive-water-reducer-super-plasticizer.html

Hello. Can be quality of cement, your sand maybe not clean, you may need to mix little longer, you may need to add bit more water depends to your filler type..... It may be many reasons. Always make a several different tests with your material and select best working for you option.

@@GlobMarblehello again . this time add a basf defomer too in the mixture and mix longer time. what happened was that the concrete changed from self-leveling to a fixed concrete. is that because of defomer or over mix? what happens when concrete be over mix?

​@@hamidrezar1040 I believe it because of defoamer. Please read the defoamer TDS

its a Melflux Super Plasticizer

thank you

@@GlobMarble donde puedo comprar el. Plastificante melflux

Yes, it will work for all concretes including lightweight concrete. Super plasticizer - its a water reducer for cementitious materials. Lightweight- just a filler

Superplasticizer reduces the amount of water you need to add into your concrete. This makes your concrete much stronger. You can buy it here- globmarble.com/concrete-additive-water-reducer-super-plasticizer.html

The only difference is that liquid release has a higher chance of breaking and spilling during shipping :) This is why we sell powder release

Thank you I have used superplasticizer PCE based of SIKA company which is available here in Pakistan but not getting the same finished surfaceas like yours I have used same proportions and mixing pattern but result is nkt like yours I am using silicone rubber mold

Sir can you give me your whatsapp no I want send you the pictures

@@armkf2343 from where did u get the plasticizer from in Pakistan?

@@ahmedanwar87 sir i have got it from my friend working with vertex chemicals

Yup!

1/2 inch or 1.27 centimeters

For this casting we used portland cement, sand, plasticizer and water. We have another video with Portland cement and pure CSA, check the following link please ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PVK252n-SyI.html . Unfortunately we didn't test it for PSI, but there is should be at least 10 000 PSI

Awesome - looking forward to doing more business with you.

In this case we used Portland cement, sand and super plasticizer. we didn't use an aggregate. This panel is 1/2 inch ( 1.2 cm) thick, general purpose sand with different size granules works good. You can try 1 part cement + 2 parts filler ( sand + aggregates). We used 1 x 1 cement by filler in this case, our PSI more than 10.000. with 1 part cement + 2 parts filler and w/c ratio 20-25% you'll have close to 10 000 PSI

It doesn't really matter powder or liquid, it really depends to your preferences. Make sure you get highly concentrated plasticizer for best result. We recommend this one: globmarble.com/concrete-additive-water-reducer-super-plasticizer.html

Same time as regular concrete :)

It's more then strong enough. You can reinforce the stone with fibers, but it doesn't make any sense. You can also make 1 part cement + 2 or 3 parts sand. All additives have to be re-calculated based on cement weight.

Sorry, don't speak Spanish

@@trevorhardy8193 ok, bit I mean what is this for? What happen if I don't use plasticizer?

@@trevorhardy8193 Superplasticizers are used to enhance the fluidity of the concrete without adding water. Molecules physically separate the cement particles, these molecules temporarily neutralize forces of attraction between the cement particles. This gives the concrete much more liquid consistency.

I like metric too, you can check out our website, there is a lot of cool stuff on there and all the info is available in both metric and imperial
