Is admixture hazardous?
Most admixtures are water-based and are non-hazardous or, at worst, irritants. A small group have a high pH and are therefore harmful: this particularly applies to some air-entrainers, water-resisting admixtures and sprayed concrete accelerators. A few, mainly accelerators and corrosion inhibitors, may be toxic.
