Abstract
A zinc-oxide based set retardant additive and admixture for use in Portland cement or other hydraulic cement mixtures. The admixture may comprise silica fume, vitreous calcium aluminosilicate, magnesium aluminum silicate hydrate, a cellulose ether derivative, or their equivalents. The zinc-oxide based set retardant may be interground or pre-blended, pre-packaged, or added on the jobsite, as an admixture, additive, or addition. The zinc-based set retardant may be subsequently added or mixed into a ready mix or wet mixture of portland cement or other hydraulic cement, sand and/or aggregate, with or without fillers, and water, with or without other pozzolans or polymers.
