    DENSIFIED SILICA FUME

    DESCRIPTION CHARACTERISTICS / ADVANTAGES


    SikaFume® DS is a concrete additive in powder form SikaFume® DS contains extremely fine (0.15µm) lat-
    based on silica fume technology. It is used as a high ef- ently reactive silicon dioxide. The presence of this sub-
    fective additive for the production of high quality con- stance gives following advantages:
    crete. ▪ Improved internal cohesion
    ▪ Water retention and increased density when set
    USES ▪ Improved pumping properties
    ▪ Improved durability
    SikaFume® DS is used in : ▪ Improved water tightness
    ▪ High performance concrete ▪ Improved surface finish
    ▪ Structural concrete ▪ Increased resistance to abrasion
    ▪ Precast concrete ▪ Reduced chloride diffusion
    ▪ Shotcrete applications ▪ Improved ultimate strength
    And other fields of concrete construction where great SikaFume® DS contains no chloride or other poten-
    demands are required on the durability and quality of tially corrosive substances.
    fresh and hardened concrete.
