An admixture refers to a natural or chemical substance that is added to the concrete, in addition to water, cement, and aggregate, to alter its properties. Retarders, fly ash, silica fume, plasticizers, accelerators, air entering mixture, synthetic calcium-silicate-hydrate (CSH) and superplasticizers are some of the commonly used concrete mixtures. Concrete admixtures exhibit various properties, such as workability, finish ability, durability, water reduction, accelerating strength, corrosion inhibition, and compressive strength. They assist in improving the quality of the concrete during the stages of transport and mixing, ensuring specific required properties of cured concrete are met, and eliminating adverse chemical reactions, thus reducing the overall costs of building construction. As a result, concrete admixtures are widely used in the construction of industrial amenities, residential buildings, surface transportation infrastructure projects, and social and commercial complexes.

Concrete Admixtures Market Trends:
Steadily increasing construction of residential buildings due to rapid population expansion, particularly in developing regions, represents one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. Concrete admixtures are widely used to modify the properties of hardened concrete and ensure the quality of concrete during mixing, transporting, placing, and curing. Apart from this, various product innovations, such as the introduction of durable and environmentally friendly concrete admixtures that aid in reducing carbon footprint, are providing an impetus to the market growth. Moreover, the increasing employment of plasticizers in residential, industrial and commercial structures as it aids in minimizing water content from concrete and offers high durability and strength, are positively impacting the market growth. Other factors, including the rising expenditure capacities of consumers, increasing establishments of smart cities, and the implementation of various government initiatives promoting infrastructural development, are anticipated to drive the market further toward growth.
