About Cement Admixture
Cement admixtures are substances, apart from water, aggregates, and cement, introduced to a concrete mix prior to or in the process of mixing it to alter its characteristics. Consider them as performance additives to concrete, which provide more control over its workability, setting time, strength gain, and long-term durability. These additives can be categorized mainly into chemical admixtures and mineral admixtures. Chemical admixtures, like water reducers, retarders, accelerators, and air-entraining agents, are commonly introduced in small amounts but have a strong influence on the fresh and hardened properties of concrete. Mineral admixtures, however, tend to be applied in higher volumes and contain ingredients such as fly ash, silica fume, and ground granulated blast-furnace slag, which have the potential to add to the cementitious qualities of the mix and improve the long-term durability of the concrete. The application of cement admixtures has grown steadily in usage over contemporary construction trends. They provide a vast array of advantages, making it possible to produce concrete with characteristics suitable for a particular project requirement and environmental setting. For example, in hot weather concreting, the use of retarders can delay the setting time and avoid early hardening.

About Approach
To evaluate and validate the market size various sources including primary and secondary analysis is utilized. AMA Research follows regulatory standards such as NAICS/SIC/ICB/TRCB, to have a better understanding of the market. The market study is conducted on basis of more than 200 companies dealing in the market regional as well as global areas with the purpose to understand the companies positioning regarding the market value, volume, and their market share for regional as well as global.
Further to bring relevance specific to any niche market we set and apply a number of criteria like Geographic Footprints, Regional Segments of Revenue, Operational Centres, etc. The next step is to finalize a team (In-House + Data Agencies) who then starts collecting C & D level executives and profiles, Industry experts, Opinion leaders, etc., and work towards appointment generation.
The primary research is performed by taking the interviews of executives of various companies dealing in the market as well as using the survey reports, research institute, and latest research reports. Meanwhile, the analyst team keeps preparing a set of questionnaires, and after getting the appointee list; the target audience is then tapped and segregated with various mediums and channels that are feasible for making connections that including email communication, telephonic, skype, LinkedIn Group & InMail, Community Forums, Community Forums, open Survey, SurveyMonkey, etc.
