EdenCrete500
EdenCrete500 is a carbon nanotube enriched liquid additive which increases the flexural and tensile strength of concrete thereby improving resistance to failure resulting from bending and stressing.
Features:
• Ready-to-use liquid admixture
• No need for dilution
• Added to the concrete mixture at the plant or job site
• No specialized mixing equipment needed
• Manufactured under rigid quality control methods to ensure the highest quality and reliability
Benefits:
• Allows for higher ultimate tensile and compressive strengths
• Reduces concrete permeability
• Improves concrete durability and resistance to chemical attack
• Reduces tendency for corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete
• Increases abrasion resistance
• Allows for the reduction of concrete thickness and steel content
• Reduces cracks from concrete shrinkage
Areas of Application:
• Used in concrete beams and suspended slabs where tensile and flexural strengths are needed
• Ideal for infrastructure such as water distribution, bridges, and locks where steel corrosion is a concern
• Used in concrete walls where high steel content causes problems with concrete placement and consolidation

Application Guidelines
EdenCrete500 should be employed at a
dosage rate of 30 to 150 fluid ounces per 100 pounds (2.0 L to 10.0 L per 100 kg) of total cementitious. EdenCrete500 has a water content of 85-90%.
EdenCrete500 can be at added at the hopper of a concrete mixing truck or in a central plant mixer. The EdenCrete500 should be added with the tail water during the mixing process. Once added, mix the concrete at the maximum mixing speed for approximately 70-100 revolutions.
It is the responsibility of the end user to conduct trial batches to ensure the adequate concrete mixture propor tions are consistent with the concrete proper ties needed. Please contact your local Eden Innovations sales representative for assistance in using EdenCrete500.
Storage, Handling, and Transport
EdenCrete500 should be transpor ted and stored at a temperature of 40-95°F (5-35°C). If the EdenCrete500 is allowed to freeze, the par ticles will irreversibly precipitate. For bulk storage, the admixture tank should be constructed of plastic, stainless steel, or fiberglass. The tank should be sealed after the EdenCrete500 is added. Translucent tanks and storage containers should be stored out of direct sunlight. Maintain the EdenCrete500 solution under
these above conditions. EdenCrete500 has a shelf life
of at least 12 months after production.
Safety
EdenCrete500 is not considered to be a dangerous material to handle. Before handling, refer to the corresponding Material Safety Data Sheet for health, safety, and environmental information.
