Darcole Products DNL 785
- Chemical Family
- Mixtures & Blends
DNL 785 is a reformulated version of DarCole Products’ original DNL 902. DNL 785 is a water-reducing admixture developed for on-site continuous type mixers. DNL 785 is a special blend of DNL 485 and DWR 385. DNL 785 has various uses for all types of mixers because of its rapid integrating characteristics and the ability to be used in the water supply system. DNL 785 decreases water/cement ratios while increasing the quality of the cement, improving slump loss, splashing, shrinkage, segregation, and stabilizing the volume. DNL 785 has many of the same characteristics of the previous DNL 902, however, DNL 785 increases flowability, pumpability, and workability while reducing more water. DNL 785 is also applicable with pervious concrete applications.
