MEYCO Minefill 701
MEYCO Minefill 701 ready-to-use, non-chloride liquid admixture is used for making more uniform and predictable high-performance backfill. MEYCO Minefill 701 admixture retards or stabilizes setting time by controlling the hydration of portland cement and other cementitious materials to facilitate pumping and placing operations. It can be used to
stabilize cement slurries for cemented rock fills, hydraulic and paste backfills.
Features
- Reduced water content leading to higher in-situ compressive strengths
- Controlled setting time characteristics
- Improved slump and flow characteristics
Benefits
- A longer working material (“open time”)
- Provides flexibility in the scheduling of backfilling operations
- Dramatically reduces potential of pipe blockages due to control of cement hydration and setting time
- Up to 25% increase in batches per day
- Up to 45% decrease in flushing of pipes
- Provides the opportunity for “Hot Change” between shifts
- Reduces piping replacement costs
- Reduces pressure losses and longer transportation distances
- Improved reliability of fill delivery and increased production
- Increased compressive strength
- Mix optimization and/or cost savings by binder reduction (cement/slag cement/fly ash)
- Cleaner mixing and agitator tanks
