PLASTOBUILD ES

HIGH RANGE WATER REDUCING,SUPERPLASTICISER FOR RHEOPLASTIC CONCRETE

DESCRIPTION FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Plastobuild ES is a superplasticising admixture • Controlled set times
that contains synthetic polymers.It is chloride • Produces flowable concrete at reduced
free and is specially formulated to impart W/C
rheoplastic qualities to concrete. • High early strengths
Rheoplastic concrete is a fluid concrete with a • Increased compressive, tensile and
slump value of at least 200mm that flows easily flexural strengths
but at the same time is free from segregation • Reduced permeability
and has the same water/cement ratio as that of a • Reduced thermal peaks, reduced
no-slump concrete (25mm) without admixture. cracking
• Compatible with fly ash and silica fume.
Plastobuild ES has been formulated to meet the
• No corrosion of reinforcing steel
requirements of ASTM C494 Type A & F and
embedded in concrete
BS EN 934-2 Tabel 3.1 & Table 3.2.

 APPLICATION
Plastobuild ES is a ready to use liquid which is
dispensed into the concrete together with the
mixing water.
Plastobuild ES can be added to concrete via the
feed hopper at the rear of the ready-mix truck to
produce a flowing concrete at site. Mix before
5minutes at 10rpm for a homogenous mix.

PACKAGING
Available in 1liter, 5liter, 10liter, 20liter
containers, 205liter drums and 1000liter IBC’s

STORAGE / SHELF LIFE
