Plastimix 150

WATER-REDUCING ADMIXTURE FOR CONCRETE

DESCRIPTION:

Plastimix 150 is a ready to use liquid admixture formulated to enhance the performance of plastic and hardened concrete.  Plastimix 150 is manufactured under rigid quality control measures to provide uniform, reliable results.  

USES:

Plastimix 150 is recommended for mixes where reduced water content, improved cement performance, uniform, normal set times and enhanced finishing characteristics are desirable.  

ADVANTAGES:

·        Improves the quality of concrete by decreasing water-cement ratio

·        Increases early and ultimate compressive and flexural strength

·        Reduces cracking and shrinkage

·        Improves workability and finishability on all flatwork, slip formed and pre-cast surfaces

·        Improves formed surfaces while reducing segregation

·        Improves pumpability of concrete

·        Improves normal-setting characteristics

·        Increases relative durability – resists damage caused by freezing and thawing

·        Improves density and water-tightness

DOSAGE RATE:

Plastimix 150 is recommended for use at a dosage rate of 3 to 6 fluid ounces per 100 pounds (196 to 392 ml per 100 kg) of cement.

Because local job conditions vary, contact your local Pro Mix sales representative for further assistance if using outside recommended dosage ranges.

SPECIFICATIONS:

Conforms to ASTM C 494 type A

AASHTO M 194 Type A

CRD C 87 Type A

TECHNICAL NOTE:

Plastimix 150 does not contain any purposely added calcium chloride or other chloride based components.  It will not promote or contribute to corrosion of reinforcing steel in concrete.

COMPATIBILITY:

Plastimix 150 is compatible with all types of Portland cement, class C and F fly ash, slag, micro-silica, calcium chloride, fibers and approved air entraining and accelerating admixtures.  Plastimix 150 can be used in all white, colored, and architectural concrete.  For best results, each admixture must be dispensed separately into the concrete mix.

STORAGE:

Plastimix 150 may freeze at temperatures below 34 F (2 C).  Although freezing does not harm Plastimix 150, precautions should be taken to protect it from freezing.  If it should happen to freeze, thaw and reconstitute with mechanical agitation.  Do Not Use Pressurized Air For Agitation.

PACKAGING:

55-gallon drums and bulk deliveries.
