MASTERPLAST SPL-5 is a unique workability retaining high performance super plasticiser with high strength properties. It is a liquid plasticising admixture for cement concrete and mortar. It has a powerful dispersing and defloculating effect on the particles of cement. It makes the concrete flowing and self compacting with an added advantage of high early and long term strength. It allows concrete to be easily compacted with minimum vibrations. It allows upto 35% water reduction in guaging water of concrete mix.

Features / Advantages

  • Due to water reduction, it increases not only early and ultimate compressive strength but also the strength of concrete at all ages.
  • It retains the workability of concrete for about two hours.
  • It gives retardation properties for 4 to 6 hours which helps to avoid cold joints in concrete. It reduces segregation in the concrete.
  • It improves finished appearance of the concrete by minimising honeycombed surface.
  • It allows lowering of cement contents without affecting the normal strengths of the concrete.
  • Non-foaming .& non-toxic.
  • It does not contain Chlorides.
  • It does not corrode the reinforcements.
  • It is based on modified Sulphonated Naphthalene Polymers


Usage

  • Ready mix concrete
  • Precast concrete
  • Prestressed concrete
  • Closely spaced areas, large bay areas, floor slabs, roof decks & other structures etc. Mainly used in situation where slump retention property is required upto 3 hrs.

Direction for use


DOSAGE:

Dose of 0.15 to 0.75 Litres. per 50 Kgs. 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 400 cc per 50 Kg. of cement is recommended.
Add MASTERPLAST SPL-5 to the mixing (guaging) water. Stir well the material before use.


CLEANING OF TOOLS & EQUIPMENTS
Tools and equipments can be cleaned with water.


STORAGE AND SHELF LIFE
Store the material at a cool and dry place (25°C).
Shelf life is two years.


PACKING

5 Litre, 20 Litre., 200 Litre or as per customers requirement for bulk quantities.


PRECAUTIONS
Do not mix with dry cement. Add to mixing (gauging) water or directly to the wet mix. Stir well before use.
