MasterRheobuild
716 (Formerly known as RHEOBUILD
716)
Description of Product
MasterRheobuild
716 is a naphthalene
sulphonate based set retarder high range water
reducing / superplasticizer admixture that
improves nal strengths and prevents consistency
loss of concrete by giving Rheoplastic property.

Admixture Standards.
Fields of Application
n In the production of pumpable and non
pumpablereadymix concrete,
n In the production of wet shotcrete.
n When the transportation of concrete takes
more than 1 hour.
n In the pouring of concrete where the concrete
is pumped to a distance of more than 200
meters or to high places.
n In critical pourings where hydration temperature
control is desired (like mass concrete pouring)
n In the production of Rheoplastic* concrete
that can easily set to densely reinforced
concrete elements.
n In the pouring of concrete in high temperature
and low humid environments.
Features and Benets
n Decreases the amount of water at least 12%
by weight compared to concrete without
admixture.
n Enables lower water/cement ratio or high
workability in the same water/cement ratio
and easy pumpability compared to concrete

without admixture.
n Minimizes the negative effects of temperature
on concrete workability.
n Enables the concrete to keep its Rheoplastic
property for a long time.
n Increases nal strengths compared to concrete
without admixture.
n Improves formwork and surface finishes
compared to concrete without admixture.
n Improves concretes other mechanical
properties like impermeability, durability,
contraction, and creeping.
n Enables setting with lesser vibration even in
densely reinforced concrete structures.

716 does not contain
chloride.
Working Mechanism of Admixture
Admixtures generally go into reaction only with
the binder. When the admixture is added to the
concrete, it is absorbed by the particles of the
binder. The particles of the binder push each
other by electrostatic force. Thus, the desired
workability is obtained by less amount of water.
Proportional with the decrease of mixtures water
amount, mechanic strength increases.
Application Procedure
Binder (cement-micro silica-fly ash) and
aggregate must be mixed until a homogenous
mixture is obtained. After adding 50%- 70% of
the water to be added to the mixture,
MasterRheobuild
716 must be added to the

mixture along with the remaining water.
MasterRheobuild
716 must be mixed for 60

sec. or for the duration determined in laboratory
experiments in the mixture for a homogenous
diffusion.
Dosage
MasterRheobuild

716 is suggested to be used
as 1.0-2.0 kg for 100 kg binder (cement- micro
silica-y ash). The dosage to be used must be
determi ned beforehand by l aboratory
experiments according to concrete class and
properties. BASF Yapi Kimyasallari Sanayi A..
Technical Service must be consulted for detailed
information.
Compatibility
MasterRheobuild
716 can be used with the

following materials:
1. Can be used with all cement types.
2. Can be used with mineral admixtures like micro
silica, y ash and slag.
3. Can be used with air entraining MasterAir

200 to increase Freeze-Thaw resistance.
4. Used with MasterRoc
MS 610 micro silica

(environment condition XA1-XA3 according to
TS EN 206-1) to improve the performance of
concrete and its strength in aggressive
environments.
5. Used against ssures from plastic shrinkage
with synthetic bers MasterRoc

FIB.SP
530/540/550/650 and steel bers.
6. Used with MasterRoc
TCC 735 and

MasterCast
125 to prevent shrinkage by

preventing rapid losing of the water in concrete
mixture.
7. In environments with high temperature and
wind, must be used with a suitable curing
membrane or material like Masterkure
101,
Masterkure
107, Masterkure
176 or
Masterkure
181 to prevent the water of the

mixture inside the concrete from evaporating.
8. Can be used with MasterRheobuild
310
admixture to increase the slump of the concrete
in construction sites.

Watch Points
n Concrete design and admixture dosage must
be determined by prior laboratory trials
according to concrete class and properties.
n The determined binder (cement-micro silica- y
ash), at the end of laboratory trials, coarse and
fine aggregate must be mixed until a
homogenous and dry mixture is obtained. If
admixture is added to the dry mixture before
adding water, then it would be absorbed by
ne aggregate and uniform distribution will
not be obtained. Even if all the mixing water
is added on top of this, aimed concrete class
and properties could not be obtained. Since
the mixture will need extra water, the water
amount in design values will be exceeded and
the concretes mechanical properties will be
below the aimed value. For this reason,
concrete admixtures must not be added
directly to the dry mixture.
n The admixture amount in the mixture is
calculated by multiplying the sum of cement
and secondary binders (such as micro silica-
fly ash-slag) in the mixture by admixture
dosage ratio.
n If higher doses are used than the suggested
dosage, then setting time of the mixture can
increase. In such cases, reinforced concrete
has to be cured by keeping it humid during
demoulding.
Packaging
30 kg can
250 kg drum
1200 kg tank
Bulk
Storage
Must be stored in original packing, in +5
o
C
environment. If the material freezes because of
storing in undesirable environments, it must be
thawed by keeping it in room temperature without
direct heating, and mixed by mechanical methods
until it becomes homogenous. Pressured air
must not be used when mixing.
Shelf Life
12 months after the production date under
appropriate storing conditions. Opened packages
can be used throughout the shelf life if the
package cover is well closed.
Health and Safety Precautions
Work cloth, protective gloves, goggles and
masks concordant with Work and Worker Health
rules must be used during the application. Avoid
contact to skin and eyes during storing and
application. If such a contact occurs, it must be
washed by soap and plenty of water. Consult a
physician urgently if swallowed. Food and drink
must be kept outside the application areas. Must
be stored away from children. Please look at the
Material Safety Data Sheet for detailed
information.
