Super-SIX-Admix™ is a proprietary blend of SIX different admixtures designed to achieve pinhole free, dense and strong concrete that will free flow in precast molds. Super SIX makes it easy to produce High Performance Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC), Engineered Concrete Composition (ECC) and ultra high performance concrete (UHPC), also known as Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC). Super-SIX™ is a non-hazardous material utilizing
the newest and most advanced technologies.
Super-SIX™ is EASY TO USE:
Batching concrete has
never been so easy. In addition to Super-SIX" simply add sand, cement & Fiber...pour in mold...cover with plastic & walk away...its that easy!
The SIX in Super-SIX™
1) Polymer
Improves flexural
strength
When dosed at 5%
effective polymer load is 2.5% polymer solids.
High enough to act as curing admix eliminating the need of the 7-day wet
cure allowing you to strip your forms much sooner
Improved dispersion of
color pigment and reduce color variation in panels
2) Plasticizer
Greatly reduces water
requirements resulting in stronger concrete
Provides
very high spread rates, improved workability and greater fluidity
3) Shrinkage Reducer
Greatly minimizes curling
Reduction of shrinkage or map
cracking
4) Defoamer
Increases Density and
virtually eliminates pin holes
Improved density of
mix (decreased permeability)
5) Wetting Agents
Helps flow and dispersion of fibers
Improves cement hydration
Provides a homogeneous
distribution and color strength of pigments
6) Water Proofer
Increases water
resistance and durability of cured concrete (hydrophobizing)
Super-SIX-Admix™ Recommendations:
Dose at 5-6% of cementitious weight (5-6
lbs. per hundred weight of cement)
Recommend to start with a .28 -.30 Water:Cement
ratio
Can be used with
just about any cementitious composition including CSA (Calcium Sulfa Alumina)
and/or Pozzolans for increased performance.
Super-SIX™ contains no Pozzolans or fibers and may be added as
desired. We recommend a minimum addition
of .5% PVA fibers of cementitious for increased impact resistance &
shrinkage crack control. Additional
Fishstone Plasticizer may be added for increased flow when using high fiber
loading.
A recommended sample
recipe to create self-consolidating GFRC concrete is as follows:
100 lbs Federal White
Cement
100 lbs silica sand
(30 sieve or finer)
28-30 lbs water
4 lbs ½ AR Glass Fibers(added
last after other ingredients are thoroughly mixed)
5-6 lbs
Super-SIX-Admix
It is recommended to
mix Super-SIX™ with other dry
ingredients then added to water. See
ourconcrete recipes page for
further information on other mix designs.
Storage
& Shelf Life:
Should be stored in in a cool & dry
environment. Avoid High humidity which may
cause product to clump. With proper storage conditions the normal
shelf life will typically be 12 months
Safe
Handling:
Super-SIX-Admix™ is a powder and can
create dust. Avoid excessive dust
buildup. Keep away from ignition
sources. Avoid breathing dust and wear
OSHA appropriate dust mask

Poured some 1/2" panels, largest one was 24" x 9' and no curl, no holes. With my past GFRC mix you always would expect some curl especially with it this thin. May be a little pricey but well worth it if you are looking to pour thin, flat anything. With time being worth something, this speeds up the mixing process.
