CONQOR B25 | ADMIXTURE
Help pump, place, & finish concrete with confidence.
CONQOR B25 sustainable liquid concrete workability & stability enhancer. Overcome sticky mixes and related placement challenges. Reduce placement risk in difficult concrete mixes. Improve workability, finishing and stability without compromising performance.
- Enhanced workability
- Easier finishing
- Assists shotcrete
CONQOR B25 | ADMIXTURE
Achieve perfect concrete workability every time.
CONQOR B25 concrete workability & stability enhancer is a sustainable colloidal silica-based liquid admixture to enhance the workability & stability of fresh concrete mixes. When mixed into concrete, it forms a rheology-modifying hydrogel within the fresh concrete matrix that enhances its plastic properties, such as stability, cohesion, and workability.
Overcome sticky mixes and placement challenges.
CONQOR B25 is designed to be used in ready-mix concrete or shotcrete, to be utilised in any below or above-ground, exposed, or submerged concrete structure. Suitable for ready-mix, precast, civil and shotcrete applications.
CONQOR B25 is processed and modified from a sustainable geothermal process that has previously been used for power generation. CONQOR B25 is nil VOC. EPD available.

Who it helps.
Ideal Solution for
CONCRETE CONTRACTORS.
CONQOR B25, a concrete workability & stability enhancer, makes quality finishing easier for contractors. CONQOR B25 helps where reinforcing steel is congested, and for unusual shapes and challenging formwork. CONQOR B25 improves hydration, helping reduce water usage. Reduced segregation and bleeding. Improved mix cohesion.
Also HELPS
SHOTCRETE CONTRACTORS.
Improve placement performance. Because CONQOR B25 improves rheology, it reduces pressure on shotcrete pumps and equipment. This can allow for lower pumping pressures, which in turn reduces wear of the equipment.
USED by
READY-MIX PLANTS.
Being liquid based and nil VOC, CONQOR B25 is easy to dose, handle and store. CONQOR B25 is available in bulk 1000 litre totes and can be plumbed in for easy management and quality control. It is compatible with SCMs and most other admixtures.
works for
CONSTRUCTION TEAMS.
By helping the concrete placement teams with ease of workability and finishing, CONQOR B25 can assist in smooth construction scheduling and avoiding delays. CONQOR B25 reduces formwork pressure enabling higher pour heights. CONQOR B25 is safe and environmentally friendly.

EASIER PLACEMENT & FINISHING
The improved concrete workability provided by CONQOR B25 makes placement and finishing easier. CONQOR B25 improves workability and stability of slipform, high slump and self-compacting concrete mixes, and assists concrete into areas of congested steel reinforcing.

IMPROVED SHOTCRETE
CONQOR B25 improves shotcrete flow, making placement easier and reducing ‘bounce’. CONQOR B25 reduces pressure on shotcrete pumps and equipment. This can allow for lower pumping pressures, which in turn reduces wear of the equipment.

TESTED TO AS1478
CONQOR B25 has no negative effect, on strength, drying shrinkage or permeability at equivalent W/C ratios.

LIMITATIONS
CONQOR B25 produces mixes that have a higher viscosity when static but become less viscous and mobile when pumped, vibrated or screeded. Slump or spread test results can therefore sometimes be lower for the same water demand, however mixes are generally still workable at lower slumps/spreads.
Using or increasing the dosage of a MRWR/HRWR, rather than increasing the water dosage to achieve the same slump/spread, is recommended. If there has been slump/spread loss, adding a small dosage of HRWR to the mix on site to restore the slump/spread is recommended. Pre-project trials are recommended to assess the suitability and dosage of the admixture for your project requirements.
