SIGMAPLAST -1 (Chloride Free Water Reducing Plasticising Admixture)
Product Description
SIGMAPLAST -1 is liquid plasticizing admixture (additive) for cement concrete. It reduces the water requirement for concrete mix to attain a given workability. It may be used to reduce cement content of concrete mix without affecting the strength. It is an economical solution of plasticizing concrete and enables the concrete designer to achieve any one or a combination of three main properties as under:
Improvement in workability (flow).
Increase in strength.
Saving in cement requirement.
Features / Advantages
It improves workability of concrete
It provides easier handling and finishing
Reduces water requirement
It improves finished appearance of the hardened concrete..
Increases all strengths of the concrete
It reduces segregation.
Reduces shrinkage and permeability
It provides increased durability.
Typical Applications
It is used in all types of concretes
Ready mixed concrete
Precast concrete
Lightweight concrete
Expansive concrete
Architectural concrete
Dosage
Dose of 0.1 to 0.25 Itrs per 50 kgs bag of cement is usually sufficient to produce self compacting and flowing concrete. Optimum dose is best determined by trial concrete mixes, otherwise normal dose of 150 cc per 50 Kgs. bag of cement is recommended.
Use the dispenser or measuring container. Add SIGMAPLAST to the mixing (gauging) water. Stir well the material before use.
Cleaning of tools & equipment
Tools and Equipments can be cleaned with water.
Precautions
Do not mix it with dry cement.
Add to mixing (gauging) water or directly to the mix
Stirr well before use.
Storage & Shelf life
Store the material at a cool & dry place (at 25°C Temp. & 50% RH). Shelf life is one year. It will freeze at (thawing) temperatures but can be reconstituted by stirring.
Packing
50 KG , 200 KG .
