SOME INFLUENCES ON ADMIXTURE REQUIREMENTS IN CONCRETE

This paper reviews existing knowledge regarding the effects of cement characteristics on the performance of air-entraining, water-reducing, and set-retarding agents, and discusses the behavior of combinations of air-outraining and set-retarding agents in concrete. Brief mention is made of temperature on the action of admixtures. /TRRL/
