Concrete and Construction Mixtures

Sodium Lignosulfonate

Formula: Полимерная натриевая соль лигносульфоновой кислоты GOST/CAS: CAS 8061-51-6

Sodium lignosulfonate is a versatile water-soluble polymeric reagent obtained as a by-product of the sulfite pulping process of wood. It presents as a free-flowing powder ranging from light yellow to dark brown in color. Due to its high surface activity, the product possesses unique properties: it acts as a highly effective plasticizer, dispersant, and reliable binder, making it indispensable across a wide range of industrial sectors.

Applications

Construction (Concrete Additives): Used as a base plasticizer for concrete mixes. It reduces water demand, improves workability, and increases the ultimate strength and frost resistance of finished structures.

Oil & Gas Industry: Applied as an effective reagent to reduce the viscosity and fluid loss of drilling muds during the drilling of oil and gas wells.

Agricultural Sector & Feed Production: Serves as an excellent dispersant and stabilizer in pesticide formulation, as well as a binding agent in the granulation of mineral fertilizers and compound animal feed.

Metallurgy & Foundry: Acts as a reliable binding material in the briquetting of ores and coal dust, and in the molding of foundry cores.

Key Advantages

High Plasticizing Ability: Effectively reduces the water content in mixes without a loss of fluidity, allowing for cement savings and increased product density.

Eco-friendly & Safe: As a derivative of natural wood processing, it is non-toxic, highly biodegradable, and safe for the environment.

Excellent Solubility: Dissolves quickly and completely in water at various temperatures, forming stable working solutions.

Versatility & Cost-Effectiveness: Simultaneously performs the functions of a dispersant and a binder, serving as a highly affordable alternative to expensive synthetic polymers.

Storage & Transportation

Store in dry, well-ventilated indoor warehouses in the original factory packaging.
The product is hygroscopic: prevent damage to the bags and avoid direct contact with moisture or water to prevent lumping/caking.
Transportation is permitted by all types of covered transport, provided that standard freight rules are observed and the product is protected from atmospheric precipitation.
