Due to its chemical composition and as a result of a unique heat treatment process BURGESS OPTIPOZZ^TM is a highly reactive metakaolin that is categorized as a Class N Pozzolan. The term “highly reactive” means that OPTIPOZZ^TM metakaolin is available to react with the free lime produced as a result of the Portland cement.

By utilizing OPTIPOZZ^TM metakaolin in a cementitious mix design, the working characteristics of wet concrete and finished properties of cured concrete are significantly improved.
