UW Plast

Overview

Description

UW Plast is a retarding type high range water reducing admixture based on modified polycarboxylic ether. The product has been specially developed for applications in ready mix and site-batched concrete, where long retention is needed. Esteema 501 allows considerable reduction of mixing water while maintaining control on extend of set retardation thus improve the compressive strength of concrete and mortar without increasing the cement content. It makes concrete more impermeable and durable.

Applications

Uses

  • Ready mixed concrete
  • Pumped concrete
  • High workability without segregation or bleeding
  • Mixes requiring > 12% water reductions
Why Choose This

Advantages

Dose sensitivity is very less
Suitable for lower to medium grade concrete
Resistance to segregation even at high workability
At high dosage it does not have high retardation effect
Low viscosity suitable for pumping of different grades of concrete to higher floors
Reduced water content for a given workability
Higher ultimate strengths
Increased ease in finishing concrete
