Multiplast AlkaSil
Aggregates form major composition of concrete mix. Aggregates containing certain constituents can react with alkali hydroxides in concrete. The reactivity is potentially harmful only when it produces significant expansion. This damage is normally visible after a decate. This alkali-aggregate reactivity (AAR) has two forms—alkali-silica reaction (ASR) and alkali-carbonate reaction (ACR, sometimes called alkali-carbonate rock reaction, or ACRR). SRA is more often a concern than ACR because the occurrence of aggregates containing reactive silica minerals is more common. Multiplast AlkaSil is designed to arrest alkali-aggregate reation.
