Tetraguard AS20 

TETRAGUARD AS20 is the first chemical admixture in the world to reduce drying shrinkage in concrete and mortar, and the potential for subsequent cracking.  


 Features and Benefits

  • Significantly reduces drying shrinkage by as much as 80% at 28 days, and up to 50% at one year or beyond when 2% TETRAGUARD AS20 admixture by mass of cement is used in the concrete mixture.
  • Reduces stresses induced from one-dimensional surface drying in concrete slabs and floors.
  • Reduces compressive creep.
  • Reduces carbonation.                
  • Reduces drying shrinkage cracking and micro cracking thereby improving aesthetics, watertightness and durability.
  • Reduces compressive creep under drying conditions that minimizes pre-stress loss.
  • Minimises curling.
