ARDEX CE 902 Advantages
Ultra-fluidity – creates a highly fluid grout when combined with Ordinary Portland Cement and water.
Chloride free – formulated without chloride.
Low permeability – helps reduce water and aggressive-element penetration through the hardened grout.
Corrosion protection – supports protection of encapsulated post-tensioning tendons.
No hydrogen gas generation – formulated without generation of hydrogen gas.
High bonding strength to tendons – designed to provide strong adhesion between the grout and tendon system.
Full encapsulation – designed to provide complete encapsulation of tendons and wire strands.
No bleeding – helps maintain a consistent grout during placement.
No cement particle sedimentation – helps prevent separation and settling of cement particles.
Long-distance pumping – stabilises cement particles to allow the grout to be pumped over long distances without segregation.
Expansion properties – incorporates expansion agents to assist with the performance of the finished grout.
Post-Tensioning Duct Grout Additive
ARDEX CE 902 is designed specifically for use in post-tensioning duct grouting systems.
When combined with Ordinary Portland Cement and water, the additive forms a structural grout with the characteristics required for specialist post-tensioning applications.
The resulting grout is designed to flow through suitable duct systems and provide effective encapsulation around tendons and wire strands.
Long-Distance Pumping Without Segregation
A key feature of ARDEX CE 902 is its ability to stabilise cement particles within the grout mixture.
This allows the resulting grout to be pumped over long distances without segregation, providing a major advantage on larger post-tensioning and infrastructure projects.
Maintaining a consistent grout mixture during pumping is important for achieving effective and uniform filling of post-tensioning ducts.
Ultra-Fluid Grout
ARDEX CE 902 incorporates unique plasticising agents that provide ultra-fluidity when the additive is combined with cement and water.
The resulting grout is designed to flow effectively through suitable post-tensioning ducts and around tendon assemblies.
Its highly fluid characteristics help facilitate:
Long-distance pumping
Duct filling
Tendon encapsulation
Filling around wire strands
Consistent grout placement
Full Encapsulation of Tendons & Wire Strands
The resulting grout produced using ARDEX CE 902 is designed to provide full encapsulation of tendons and wire strands.
Effective encapsulation is an important part of post-tensioning duct grouting, helping protect the tendon system and provide a durable structural grout environment.
Corrosion Protection
ARDEX CE 902 is designed to support corrosion protection of post-tensioning tendons.
The resulting grout provides low permeability and full encapsulation characteristics, helping protect tendons from exposure to moisture and aggressive elements.
The formulation is also chloride free, making it suitable for applications where chloride content is a critical consideration.
No Bleeding or Cement Particle Sedimentation
ARDEX CE 902 is formulated to provide grout characteristics including:
No bleeding
The resulting grout is designed to prevent separation of water from the cementitious mixture during placement.
No cement particle sedimentation
The additive helps stabilise the cement particles, reducing the risk of sedimentation and helping maintain a consistent grout throughout the duct.
These properties are particularly important for post-tensioning applications requiring complete and uniform filling.
No Hydrogen Gas Generation
The ARDEX CE 902 system is formulated with no generation of hydrogen gas.
This is an important characteristic for enclosed post-tensioning duct applications where the behaviour and stability of the grout within the duct system are critical.
Low-Permeability Post-Tensioning Grout
The resulting grout provides low permeability, helping limit the movement of water and aggressive elements through the hardened material.
Combined with full tendon encapsulation and corrosion protection, this makes the ARDEX CE 902 system suitable for demanding permanent post-tensioning applications.
How ARDEX CE 902 Works
ARDEX CE 902 is an additive, rather than a complete cement grout on its own.
The system combines:
ARDEX CE 902 + Ordinary Portland Cement + Water
to produce a structural grout suitable for post-tensioning ducts and other appropriate grouting applications.
The unique blend of plasticising and expansion agents provides the resulting grout with ultra-fluidity and helps stabilise the cement particles during pumping.
Always follow the manufacturer's current technical documentation for the specified cement, water ratio, mixing procedure, pumping requirements and application method.
