Ashland Aqualon Functional Ingredients' cellulose ethers help to control rheology and cement paste cohesion when mixing concrete additives--whether you're casting concrete pillars, continuous underground walls, foundations of bridges or laying concrete aprons to fortify underwater constructions. Concrete is produced on site and pumped to the final location, where you'll find your customized mixture ready for application.

- Increases resistance to washout of cement paste in underwater applications by adding water-reducer or superplasticizer
- Reduction of rebound in shotcrete
- Increased green strength in slipforming and extrusion
