Concrete is a material commonly used in construction. It is composed of cement, aggregate, water and special chemicals known as admixtures.
Admixtures
Admixtures change the properties of the concrete. Different admixtures are used depending on the requirements:
- Accelerators make the concrete harden faster.
- Pigments change the colour of the concrete.
- Bonding agents create a good bond when adding new concrete to old.
