Plastcrete
Plastcrete is a highly effective concrete superplasticizer that can also serve as a final setting accelerator. It functions by lowering surface tension within the concrete mix, which significantly increases workability despite a reduced water-to-cement ratio. This product is engineered to enhance concrete properties, with a specific focus on increasing compressive strength.
Type
Highly effective concrete superplasticizer and final setting accelerator.
Use
- Standard and Specialized Concrete: Suitable for site, pumped, pre-stressed, and precast concrete.
- Critical Structures: Used in impermeable concrete, sewage water structures, and underwater concrete.
- High Performance: Ideal for fair face concrete and applications requiring high early strength, such as traffic areas.
Key Technical Specifications
- Solid Content: 25%.
- Density: 1.0 $gm/ml$.
- pH: 9–10.
- Compressive Strength: Tested according to ASTM C579.
- Performance Comparison: - Control (Without PLASTCRETE): 34% W/C ratio resulting in 18 $N/mm^2$. - With 12% PLASTCRETE: 28% W/C ratio resulting in 32.87 $N/mm^2$.
