DE NEEF® MC 300
Product Description
MC 300® ULTRAFINE Cement is a blast furnace slag based cement composed of ultrafine particles, designed for injection into loose soils, rock, concrete, and down-hole applications. MC 300 has a grain size of d95 equal to 6.0 microns and a d50 of 2.5 microns. The composition is comparable to high sulfate – resistant cements. It is suited for stabilizing or sealing all earthen foundations; especially for permanent structures such as tunnels, dams, deep foundations and oil storage tanks. Because MC 300 cures into a hardened concrete, it causes no pollution to underground soils or water supplies.
MC 300 is used with NS-200, a super plasticizer, to prevent clumping of microfine cements. It is generally used at 1-2 wt. % of the dry cement weight.
Product Advantages
- Excellent penetration into fine sands and finely cracked rock
- High cured strength- chemically activated to produce rapid curing to high strength
- Excellent durability- impermeable to ground water and seawater
- Low permeability- 10-9 cm/s permeability for neat grout.
Product Applications
- Geotechnical grouting
- Oil well remedial cementing
- Seal off underground streams
- Create cut off walls for dam construction
- Reinforce foundations in dams and buildings
- Reinforce and waterproof tunnel walls and roofs
- Create waterproof basins for reservoirs
- Facilitate all types of excavation
- Stabilize hazardous waste.
- Provide secondary containment for nuclear waste
