Shrinkage Compensating Cements with Additives
This report describes a laboratory evaluation of the physical characteristics of shrinkage compensating cements when additives are used. Two admixtures were studied, Dow Corning 777B, a reactive polysiloxane, which increases the durability or resistance to weathering, and Sika Set, a low-shrinkage, final set accelerator. The concrete used was a standard Minnesota Highway Department bridge deck design mix (3Y43). The two additives generally improved the physical characteristics of the ChemComp shrinkage compensating cement but greatly reduced the durability of the concrete in the freeze-thaw tests.
