PCE 540P Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer
Introduction
PCE 540P – High-Performance Polycarboxylate for Sulphoaluminate Cement
PCE 540P delivers a 34% water reduction rate and is specifically formulated for sulphoaluminate cement systems. Its customized molecular structure is designed to match the hydration characteristics of SAC, providing reliable workability retention and low slump loss over time.
The admixture effectively slows early hydration of calcium sulfoaluminate, delaying initial strength development without impacting long-term compressive strength. Concrete treated with PCE 540P achieves rapid strength gain, reaching full performance within 5–12 hours.
Key Advantages
- Compatible with accelerators: Works well with calcium chloride or alkali-based accelerators
- Safety-focused: Low in alkali and chloride content
- Steel-friendly: Prevents erosion of steel-reinforced concrete
- Versatile applications: Effective across multiple concrete and mortar types

PCE 540P Applications
01 Cement Self-Leveling Compounds
NOVASTAR PCE 540P accelerates initial setting in cement-based self-leveling compounds, allowing faster surface treatment and flooring installation.
Its high water-reducing efficiency improves layer strength and reduces cracking and shrinkage caused by excess water.
02 Bedding Mortar
LANDU NOVASTAR PCE 540P reduces water demand by 30–40% in bedding mortar, improving strength and durability.
It also lowers shrinkage, cracking, and efflorescence risks. Its fast-setting action allows quicker laying and support of masonry units.
03 Repair Mortar
LANDU NOVASTAR PCE 540P improves repair mortar workability, allowing easy application in thin or thick layers and hard-to-reach areas.
It enhances compressive strength and reduces shrinkage, cracking, and delamination by lowering the water-to-cement ratio. Its fast-setting action ensures early strength gain, minimizing downtime and restoring structural integrity quickly.
04 Waterproof Mortar
LANDU NOVASTAR PCE 540P improves waterproof mortar workability, ensuring full coverage and strong substrate adhesion.
By reducing the water-to-cement ratio, it lowers porosity and permeability, providing effective water resistance and fast early strength development.
05 3D Printed Concrete
LANDU NOVASTAR PCE 540P provides precise rheology control for 3D-printed concrete, ensuring smooth extrusion and excellent shape retention.
It maintains thixotropy so printed layers hold their shape without slumping. Its fast-setting action allows quicker printing and stable support for subsequent layers, improving overall project efficiency.
06 UHPC (Ultra-High-Performance Concrete)
LANDU NOVASTAR PCE 540P reduces porosity and permeability in UHPC, supporting compressive strengths typically above 150 MPa.
It disperses cement particles effectively, lowering internal friction for easier mixing, pumping, and placement—even in complex forms or densely reinforced structures.
07 Grouting Mortar
LANDU NOVASTAR PCE 540P enhances grouting mortar flowability, allowing it to penetrate tight spaces, cracks, and voids easily.
It improves cohesion and internal bonding while increasing compressive strength and durability by reducing the water-to-cement ratio.
