DARAVAIR® 1000 is a clean, <br /> light orange product designed to generate specification-quality air systems. Based on a high-grade <br /> saponified rosin formulation, DARAVAIRO 1000 is chemically similar to vinsol-based products, but with <br /> increased purity and supply dependability. DARAVAIRO 1000 weighs approximately 8.5 Ibs/gal (1.02 <br /> kg/L). DARAVAIRO 1000 does not contain intentionally added chloride. <br /> Uses <br /> DARAVAIRO 1000 air-entraining admixture may be used wherever the purposeful entrainment of air is <br /> required by concrete specifications. Formulated to perform across the entire spectrum of production <br /> mixes, DARAVAIR® 1000 generates quality, freeze-thaw resistant air systems in concrete conditions that <br /> include the following: <br /> • Low slump <br /> • Paving <br /> • Central mix <br /> • Extruded slip form <br /> • Mixes containing hot water and accelerators <br /> • Precast <br /> • High cement factor <br /> • Fly ash and slag <br /> • Superplasticizers <br /> • Manufactured sands <br /> Product Advantages <br /> • Rapid air build suitable for short mix cycles <br /> • Can be used in wide spectrum of mix designs <br /> Compatibility with Other Admixtures and Batch Sequencing <br /> DARAVAIR® 1000 is compatible with most GCP admixtures as long as they are added separately to the <br /> concrete mix. In general, it is recommended that DARAVAIR® 1000 be added to the concrete mix near the <br /> beginning of the batch sequence for optimum performance, preferably by"dribbling"on the sand. Different <br /> sequencing may be used if local testing shows better performance. Please see GCP Technical Bulletin TB- <br /> 01 10,Admixture Dispenser Discharge Line Location and Sequencing for Concrete Batching Operationsfor <br /> further recommendations. DARAVAIRO 1000 should not be added directly to heated water. <br /> Page 1 of 3 <br />
