What is Melamine Liquid?
Melamine Liquid, formally known as Sulphonated Melamine Formaldehyde (SMF), is a second-generation superplasticiser used extensively in the construction industry as a high-range water reducer and concrete admixture. It is a clear to light amber liquid that disperses cement particles effectively, producing highly workable concrete with significantly reduced water content.
Polychem Industries supplies Melamine Liquid to construction chemical manufacturers, ready-mix concrete producers, and precast concrete companies across India and internationally. It is particularly valued for high-strength concrete, refractory castables, and grout applications due to its low air-entrainment and excellent compatibility with most cements.
Available Grades
| Grade | Form | Solid Content | Standard | Applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Construction Grade | Clear to Light Amber Liquid | 20–30% | IS 9103 / Construction | Concrete, precast, grout, refractory castables |
Applications & Uses
High-Strength Concrete
Used to produce high-strength concrete (M30–M60) by reducing the water-cement ratio while maintaining excellent workability. Produces dense, low-permeability concrete with superior mechanical properties.
Precast Concrete
Widely used in precast concrete manufacturing for faster demoulding and improved surface finish. Its low air-entraining nature makes it preferred for architectural precast elements.
Refractory Castables
Particularly valued in refractory applications — used in refractory castables for furnaces, kilns, and high-temperature industrial equipment where low water content and high density are critical.
Grout & Tile Adhesive
Added to grout and tile adhesive formulations to improve flow, reduce water demand, and enhance adhesion strength in tile installation and jointing applications.
Ready-Mix Concrete
Used in ready-mix concrete to improve slump, extend workability time, and improve pumpability without increasing water content, particularly in hot weather conditions.
Self-Levelling Compounds
A key admixture in self-levelling floor screeds and underlayments. Provides excellent flow and self-levelling properties at low water-cement ratios for flat, smooth floor surfaces.
