Concrete Admixtures: Types, Functions, and Applications

Abstract: Concrete admixtures are chemical or mineral substances added to concrete before or during mixing to enhance its properties. These admixtures improve workability, durability, strength, and resistance to environmental factors. This paper explores the types of concrete admixtures, their functions, and their applications in modern construction. It also discusses advancements in admixture technology and their role in sustainable construction. Keywords: Concrete admixtures, admixtures improve workability, modern construction.
