Donplast® PC145
High range water reducing admixture based on polycarboxylate polymers
Donplast PC145 is a high range water reducing admixture based on polycarboxylic polymers with selective additives which are especially formulated to enable the water content of the concrete to perform in a more effective manner.
This effect can be used in different concrete applications where it is required to keep the water-to-cement ratio at a minimum level while maintaining an excellent workability and strength performance.
- Optimizes cement utilization.
- Can be used as high range and normal range water reducer depending on the used dosage.
- Improves the water impermeability characteristics of concrete mix.
- Significantly improves the slump retention characteristic without affecting the setting time.
- Increases the durability and resistance to aggressive atmospheric conditions.
- Significantly improves early and ultimate compressive strengths.
- Minimizes segregation and bleeding problems by improving the cohesion of concrete mixes.
Donplast PC145 is suitable for use in the following applications:
- Acts as high range water reducer for the production of high strength and high performance concrete.
- ASTM C494 Type A normal range water reducer and Type F HRWR depending addition rate used.
- Improves the cohesion of concrete used for mass concrete pours and piling.
- Optimizes cement utilization.
- Improves the water impermeability characteristics of concrete mix.
- Significantly improves early and ultimate compressive strengths.
Donplast PC145 is available in 275 gal (1,041 litre) IBC totes. Bulk supply in tanker trucks is also available upon request.
Donplast PC145 has a shelf life of 12 months from date of manufacture if stored at temperatures between 35 ˚F and 122˚F (2°C and 50°C).
The recommended dosage of Donplast PC145 is 4.0 to 25 fl oz/100 Ib (260 - 1,630 ml/100 kg) of cement or cementitious materials in the mix including GGBFS, PFA or micro-silica.
Representative trials should be first conducted to determine the optimum dosage of Hyperplast PC145 to meet the performance requirements by using the materials and conditions in actual use.
Donplast PC145 complies with the requirements of Specification for Chemical Admixture for Concrete ASTM C494 as a Type A and F admixture, depending on the used dosage.
