Experimental Study on Strength and Setting Time of Concrete After Modifying Workability by Using Molasses as Time Retarding and Plasticizing Agent
Abstract: Molasses is a byproduct recovered from the sugar refining process. Molasses can also be recovered from the paper industries. Here the waste floating on the surface of boiling sugar juice during the process of production of sugar is taken. Sugar content in such molasses slows down the hydration process in cement. This phenomenon increases the setting time of the concrete mix. Among the quantity of water added to concrete without …
