Hyperplast PC240
High performance concrete admixture based on polycarboxylic polymers (Formerly known as Hyperplast PCF1)
Hyperplast PC240 is a high performance superplasticising admixture based on polycarboxylic polymers with long chains specially designed to enable the water content of the concrete to perform more effectively.
This effect can be used in high strength concrete and flowable concrete mixes, to achieve highest concrete durability and performance.
- Optimises cement utilisation.
- High density and impermeable concrete through very high water reduction.
- Improves shrinkage and creep behaviours.
- Minimises segregation and bleeding problems by improving cohesion.
- Higher early and ultimate compressive strengths.
- Increases durability and resistance to aggressive atmospheric conditions thorough reduced permeability.
- Structures with congested reinforcement.
- High strength and high performance concrete.
- Self compacting concrete.
- Pre-cast concrete.
- Improved cohesion allow for use in mass concrete pours and piling.
Hyperplast PC240 is available in 25 litre pails, 210 litre drums and 1000 litre bulks supply.
Hyperplast PC240 has a shelf life of 12 months from date of manufacture if stored at temperatures between 2°C and 50°C.
The guidance dosage of Hyperplast PC240 is 0.3 - 2.5 litre per 100 kg of cementitious materials in the mix, including GGBFS, PFA or microsilica.
Representative trials should be conducted to determine the optimum dosage of Hyperplast PC240 to meet the performance requirements by using the materials and conditions in actual use.
Hyperplast PC240 complies with ASTM C494, Type F.
