EcoPlus Fly Ash
Fly ash is a fine powder that is a byproduct of burning pulverized coal in electric generation power plants and is used to reduce embodied carbon and improve the workability and durability of concrete and concrete products.
EcoPlus® Fly Ash is mixed in combination with EcoSure® Type GP providing an effective solution to carbon reduction, and complex design and constructional requirements.
Quality
EcoPlus® Fly Ash is a product that produces cementitious compounds through the reaction of silica and alumina with water and free lime.
EcoPlus® Fly Ash meets the requirements detailed in AS/NZS3582.1
Applications
EcoPlus® Fly Ash is the ideal component to a number of concrete mixes and concrete products used throughout construction, including:
- Plastic concrete: EcoPlus® provides workability enhancement, placement and finishing efficiency, pumping efficiency and reduced water demand.
- Hardened concrete: EcoPlus® improves engineering design efficiency, reduces drying shrinkage where lower demands are achieved, and increases long-term compressive strength development.
- Reduced Embodied Carbon: When combined with EcoSure GP cement, EcoPlus® provides further reductions in embodied carbon of concrete.
