Mecalithe® con.100% VS
®
®
Mecalithe is a powdered additive improving the effect of cement. The addition of Mecalithe together
with cement in concrete on micro scale has the effect that the normally short crystal structures will
become longer. These ‘long needles’ will connect multiple granules and so a stronger structure is created.
The needle-shaped crystalline compounds can be compared on a microscopic scale with fiber
reinforcement, which is now widely used to get extra strength in a concrete structure. This contributes to
®
a higher compressive and tensile strength in the concrete, and a better quality. Mecalithe can also be
used to get a higher green strength or to optimize the use of cement.
