Study on the effect of sucrose as the alternative admixture in ordinary portland cement (OPC) binder (OPC) binder

This research aims to investigate the effect of sucrose as the alternative admixture in Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) binder. Chemical admixtures like sucrose are the ingredients that will be used in concrete other than Portland cement, water, and aggregate that is added to the mix directly befor...
