Addition Rates

The recommended dosage of the TYTRENE™ SE 30 densifying admixture is 4 fl. oz. per 100lb of total cementitious materials content. Please consult your GCP Applied Technologies representative for assistance.

Mixing

It is recommended that TYTRENE™ SE 30 be added to the mixer at the ready mix plant. It is preferable that TYTRENE™ SE 30 is introduced into the mixer by means of automatic dispensing equipment. A range of equipment is available, and advice on supply and fitting is available from GCP Applied Technologies on request.

Packaging

TYTRENE™ SE 30 densifying admixture is available in 55 gallon polyethylene drums and 264 gallon totes. 

Storage

TYTRENE™ SE 30 densifying admixture should be stored where temperatures remain above 2°C (35°F). Freezing temperatures cause irreversible precipitation of the silica. Continuous exposure to high temperatures will shorten the shelf life. Avoid storing the product in areas where the temperature routinely goes above 43 °C (110 °F). GCP Applied Technologies recommends storage inside a temperature-controlled building.

Shelf life: 12 months.
