Effect of sulphonated naphthalene formaldehyde superplasticizer on the mechanical and durability properties of concrete produced using locally sourced fine aggregate from Ghana

Mark Bediako,
Timothy Kofi Ametefe

Abstract: The use of superplasticizers is very uncommon in many developing countries. However, its inclusion in concrete enhances concrete's mechanical and durability properties. There is a yawning gap in the literature on the performance of Sulphonated Naphthalene Formaldehyde (SNF) superplasticizers in concrete, especially in the sub-Saharan construction industry where the quality of aggregates used in production is questionable. This study produced two batches of concrete produced with locally sourced pit sand, with … Show more
