XLcure

The admixture for the control of the alkali-silica reaction (ASR) in concrete 

XLcure N30 is a liquid admixture based on lithium nitrate, used to control the alkali-silica reaction (ASR) in high-alkali concretes, produced with reactive aggregates. 

XLcure N30 meets the requirements of ASTM C494, Type S admixture. 

The + products

  • Increases the durability and longevity of concrete structures using reactive aggregates
  • Easy to use and non-hazardous
  • Compatible with suitable pozzolans and other adjuvants

Description

When added in sufficient quantities to concrete, XLcure N30 releases lithium ions that bind to amorphous silica, forming a layer of Li–Si crystals on the surface of the aggregates. 

This mechanism reduces the dissolution of silica, prevents silicate repolymerization, and inhibits the ASR reaction. 

Packaging

Available in IBC tanks, bulk tanks (truck or railcar). 

Colour

Transparent, white to light yellow solution.
