CONPLAST P211 (Packing Available In 5 lt./20 lt./200 lt./ )

Water reducing concrete admixture Uses „ To improve the effectiveness of the water content of a concrete mix. „ Higher dosages provide effective means of reducing concrete permeability and thereby reducing water penetration. Advantages „ Allows specified strength grades to be met at reduced cement content or increased work ability. „ Water reduction significantly improves compressive strengths at all ages and enhances durability through the production of low permeability concrete. „ Minimizes the risk of segregation and bleeding and assists in the production of a dense, close textured surface, improving durability. „ Chloride free, safe for use in prestressed and reinforced concrete. Standards compliance Conplast P211 conforms to IS:9103-1999. It also complies with IS : 2645 : 2003 as an integral waterproofing compound and ASTM C494 Type A as a normal water reducing admixture. Description Conplast P211 is a chloride free water reducing admixture based on selected sugar-reduced lignosulphonates. It is supplied as a brown solution which instantly disperses in water. Conplast P211 disperses the fine particles in the concrete mix, enabling the water content of the concrete to perform more effectively and improving the consistency of the concrete. This produces higher levels of workability for the same water content, allowing benefits such as water reduction and increased strengths to be taken. Technical support Fosroc provides a technical advisory service for on-site assistance and advice on admixture selection, evaluation trials and dispensing equipment. Technical data and guidance can be provided for admixtures and other products for use with fresh and hardened concrete. Typical dosage The optimum dosage of Conplast P211 to meet specific requirements should always be determined by trials using the materials and conditions that will be experienced in use. This allows the optimisation of admixture dosage and mix design and provides a complete assessment of the concrete mix. A starting point for such trials is to use a dosage within the normal typical range of 0.20 to 0.50 litres / 100kg of cementitious material, including PFA, GGBFS and microsilica. Use at other dosages Dosages outside the typical ranges quoted above may be used if necessary and suitable to meet particular mix requirements, provided that adequate supervision is available. Compliance with requirements must be assessed through trial mixes. Contact Fosroc Technical Services Department for advice in these cases Properties Appearance : Brown liquid Specific gravity : 1.150 - 1.170 @250C Chloride content : Nil to IS:456 Air entertainment : Typically less than 1.5%. Additional air is entrained at normal dosages. Alkali content : Typically less than 5.0g Na2 O equivalent / litre of admixture. Application instructions Compatibility Conplast P211 is compatible with other Fosroc admixtures in the same concrete mix. All admixtures should be added to the concrete separately and must not be mixed together prior to addition. The performance of concrete containing more than one admixture should be assessed by the trial mix procedure recommended in this data sheet to ensure that, effects such as unwanted retardation do not occur. Conplast P211 is suitable for use with all types of ordinary Portland cements and cement replacement materials such.

CONPLAST X421IC Packing In 1 lt./5 lt./20 lt./200 it.

Uses To minimise permeability and increase the waterproofing properties of concrete and cement sand mortars for critical applications like roof slabs and screeds, basements, external plastering, bathroom floors, water tanks, sumps, drains etc. Advantages „ Liquid admixture: Instant and complete dispersion throughout the mix. Uniform waterproofing throughout concrete matrix. „ High efficiency: Dramatic reduction in permeability of concrete/ mortar „ Improved workability: Improves compaction of concrete and mortar, even where harsh sands or aggregates are used. „ Improved concrete quality : Minimises porosity and honey combing. Produces dense homogenous concrete. Standards compliance Conplast X421IC conforms to IS:2645-2003. Description Conplast X421IC is a dark brown liquid based on lignosulphonates which mixes readily with water and therefore disperses evenly. Conplast X421IC waterproofs by improving the quality of the concrete or mortar. It reduces the water demand for required workability and minimises segregation and bleeding. Thus it is more efficient compared to traditional powder waterproofers as its use results in two fold improvement of concrete or mortar.

Uses Conplast SD110 is used to reduce material cost by reduction in cement without loss of strength or by increasing strength without additional cement. To get high early strength to improve upon productivity. Advantages „ Cement saving - strength, density and yield maintained with less cement. „ Increased strengths - higher strength without additional cement „ Reduction in breakages - reduced breakages through increased 'green strength'. „ Improved production - production cycle time can be reduced allowing more blocks to be produced in a given period. Description Conplast SD110 is a brown liquid which has been formulated for optimum performance as a cement saver under manufacturing conditions encountered in Concrete blocks. Improved formulation helps in both cement dispersion and compaction, maximising the strength obtained from the cement used.

Auramix 350 is a unique combination of new generation super plasticizer based on polycarboxilic ether polymer with long lateral chain. Electrostatic dispersion mechanism considerably reduces the water demand in fl owable concrete. It is supplied as a light brown liquid, instantly dispersible in water.

Auramix 350 disperses the cement particles effectively in the concrete mix and hence exposes a larger surface area to the hydration process. This effect is used either to increase the strength or to produce high workability concrete or reduce cement content of concrete or to retard the setting time of concrete.

• Low viscosity admixture suitable for pumping different gradesof concrete to greater heights.
• Suitable for concrete having cement replacements and low water cement ratio.
• Provides higher strength without increase in cement content or reduction in workability. Ideal for precast concrete production.
• Reduce rate of workability loss normally associated with super plasticiser. Reduces shrinkage cracking because of lower water cement ratio. Makes the concrete water impermeable.
• Better resistance to Carbonation.
• Reduce Shrinkage and Creep.
• Increase Durability.
