Description
Conplast AP is a liquid water reducing set accelerator for concrete and mortar, formulated from carefully selected active ingredients. Conplast AP is a cement dispersing agent which acts as a catalyst and produces high early strength concrete. It
reduces the water cement ratio, accelerates the initial set, increases durability, reduces shrinkage and improves workability.
Advantages
• Allow the reduction of water cement ratio.
• Improve the comprehensive strength, impermeability and durability of concrete.
• Reduces the time required for the initial set.
• Increases the early and ultimate strength of concrete.
• Reduces cracking by minimising plastic shrinkage.
• Improve workability.
• Permits early removal of formworks.
• Reduces concreting costs.
Uses
Conplast AWP is a cost effective means of reducing
concrete permeability and thereby reducing water
penetration.
Advantages
■ Improved workability and plasticity.
■ Minimizes cracking and plastic shrinkage.
■ Minimizes bleeding and segregation.
■ Allows the reduction of water: cement ratio hence improves compressive strength at same workability.
■ Fully compatible with certain Fosroc surface coating finishes.
Typical Dosage
Conplast AWP may be dispersed to the gauging water at the rate of 1 litre per 100 kg of Portland Cement. For severe conditions, a minimum of 1.5 litre dose is recommended.
