Plast(AEA)

DESCRIPTION:

AT-PLAST (AEA) is a ready-to-use air-entraining admixture for concrete. STANDARD: AT-PLAST (AEA) complies with ASTM C 260 and IS 9103

USES:

  • AT-PLAST (AEA) can be used to produce high number of correctly sized and evenly distributed air pores in cementitious mix. AT-PLAST (AEA) can be used to produce easily workable and durable concrete for Roads, Runways, Taxiways, Aprons, Dams, Reservoirs and Mass Concrete Structures.

ADVANTAGES:

  • It increases frost resistance
  • It is resistant to de-icing salts
  • It improves durability and workability of concrete
  • Increases cohesion of the cementitious mix reducing the risk of segregation
  • It also improves the use of harsh aggregates
  • Does not affect the setting time even in case of over dosage

DOSAGE:

  • 0.03-0.15% by weight of cement
  • Exact dosage rates are determined by site trials
  • Adjustment has to be made to the dosage rate in order to completely control the amount of air entrainment

APPLICATION:

  • AT-PLAST (AEA) is added to the mixing water prior to its addition to the concrete mix.
  • In no situation, it should be added to the dry mix.
  • Exact dosage should be ascertained by carrying out site trials with air meter.
  • Factors affecting the air content includes: type, grading and proportion of sand, cement and aggregates, cement content per m3, type and fineness of cement, W/C ratio and temperature.
