Abstract. This chapter deals with special chemicals that can be used as cement additives. There are two basic kinds of activities in cementing, namely, primary and secondary cementing. Primary cementing fixes the steel casing to the surrounding formation. Secondary cementing is used for filling formations, sealing, or water shutoff.

The WOC time is generally based on the time required to obtain 500 psi compressive strength of the cement. Chemical used as accelerators are as follows; Calcium chloride 1.5 – 2.0 %. Sodium chloride 2.0 – 2.5%. Sea water. If the percentage of these additives is high, they will act as retarders instead of accelerators.

BXR additives can increase strength mechanically by providing a better granulometric distribution of the finished cement as well as higher cement fineness. In addition, these additives can increase strength chemically by promoting a higher hydration rate of calcium silicates. Recommended dosage: 0.02 – 0.2%. Cements, Type I & II: 0.02 – 0.04%.

The mix proportions ratio of concrete details the proportion of cement, sand and water it needs to make that particular strength of concrete. For example M20 grade of concrete is the mix ratio 1:1.5:3. The "1" is cement, "1.5" is fine aggregate and "3" is coarse aggregate. This mix applies to all grades of concrete.

The use of WRA is defined as Type A in ASTM C 494. WRA affects mainly the fresh properties of concrete by reducing the amount of water used by 5% to 12% while maintaining a certain level of consistency, measured by the slump as prescribed in ASTM C 143-90. The use of WRA may accelerate or retard the initial setting time of concrete.
