Ekan®
GRIND 208

Grinding Aid / Early and Final Strength Enhancer

  • EKAN®FLEX 208 is a grinding aid specifically formulated to increase the early and final strengths of cement. It increases mill production (10% to 25%) depending on the efficiency of the equipment and the characteristics of the material to be ground.
  • Reduces shrinkage (initial set) and grinding energy costs,
  • The risk of false set is reduced due to lower grinding temperatures.

  • lmproves physical properties of the ground material, and increases bulk density,

  • lmproves powder flow characteristics before, during and after storage,

  • Pack-set tendencies and coating are substantially reduced,

  • Cement particle size distribution is improved resulting in a more thorough hydration.

Application

Dosage: 150-350 gr/ton (Optimum dose: 250 gr/ton)

Optimum dose of EKAN®FLEX 208 should be established after local tests considering expected mechanical properties of the cement and fluidity of the mixture.

EKAN®FLEX 208 is a ready-to-use liquid admixture. A dosing pump is required to introduce the correct dosage into the mill. EKAN®FLEX 208 may be introduced either directly into the mill or onto the feed conveyor belt.
