Experience in the use of solid cement antifreeze agents
Thread Content
The use of cement antifreezing agents: Currently, there are two forms of such agents – solid and liquid. Each has its advantages: solid agents are cheaper but less convenient to use, while liquid agents are more expensive but easier to handle. I would appreciate some advice from those who know more about this； If I use a solid version, how should I mix it to achieve the best construction results?

When mixing concrete with antifreeze additives, if the antifreeze is in powder form, it can be sprinkled directly on the cement according to the specified amount and added to the cement at the same time； When the antifreeze is in liquid form, it should first be prepared into a solution of the specified concentration, and then, depending on the application requirements, this solution should be further adjusted to create a solution suitable for use in construction. Each solution should be placed in a container with clear markings to avoid confusion, and the admixture solutions to be used during each shift should be prepared at that time.
I was wondering if the original poster could provide the manufacturer and model of the solid or liquid; I’m currently looking into that.
Have you used calcium formate?
