PLASTIMIX 2200

HIGH-RANGE WATER-REDUCING ADMIXTURE FOR MANUFACTURED CONCRETE PRODUCTS

DESCRIPTION:

Plastimix 2200 is a ready to use aqueous solution of complex compounds which provides the benefits of a powerful, normal setting high-range water-reducing chemical admixture. Plastimix 2200 enhances the performance of plastic and hardened concrete. Plastimix 2200 is manufactured under rigid quality control measures to provide uniform, reliable results.

USES:

Plastimix 2200 is very effective in the manufacture of precast and prestressed concrete products where reduced water content, improved workability, normal set times, reduced curing costs, improved cement performance and very high early strengths are desirable.

ADVANTAGES:

Improves the quality of concrete by decreasing water-cement ratio up to 30%

Improves workability, placeability and consolidation

Improves mix cohesiveness

Provides uniform, normal setting characteristics

Improves cement hydration and maximizes cement utilization

Dramatically increases early and ultimate compressive and flexural strengths

Reduces curing time and expense

Improves formed surfaces

Reduces permeability

Increases relative durability – resists freezing and thawing

Improves resistance to sulfate attack

DOSAGE RATE:

Plastimix 2200 is recommended for use at a dosage rate of 8 to 20 fluid ounces per 100 pounds (522 to 1305 ml per 100 kg) of cement. Plastimix 2200 offers broad flexibility and may be used as a normal, mid and/or high-range water reducer depending upon the desired concrete performance characteristics.

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 and F

AASHTO M 194 Type A and F

CRD C 87 Type A and F

TECHNICAL NOTE:

Plastimix 2200 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 2200 is compatible with all types of Portland cement, class C and F fly ash, slag, microsilica, calcium chloride, fibers and approved air entraining admixtures. Plastimix 2200 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 2200 may freeze at temperatures below 35 F (2 C). Although freezing does not harm Plastimix 2200, 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.
