THE ROLE OF CHEMICAL ADDITIVES IN ENHANCING CEMENT AND CONCRETE PERFORMANCE
The primary material for the construction of buildings and structures of various purposes is concrete. Chemical additives are used in the preparation of the mortar mix to impart specific properties to the concrete. This paper discusses the various types of additives and their effects on the properties of concrete, such as regulating the setting of concrete, enhancing strength and corrosion resistance, and improving water resistance.
