CHRYSO®Plast Omega 164

Water reducing plasticiser

Description

CHRYSO®Plast Omega 164 is classified as a water reducing plasticiser according to SANS 50934- 2:2011 (EN 934-2:2009). The admixture thus induces the following major effects in a concrete mix:

  • Without affecting the consistency, permits a reduction in the water content; or
  • Without affecting the water content, increases the slump/flow; or
  • Produces both of the above effects simultaneously.

Benefits

  • CHRYSO® Plast Omega 164 is a multi-dose admixture, allowing a wide range of dosages to be applied, without any excessive retardation at the higher dosages.
  • The multi-dose characteristic of CHRYSO® Plast Omega 164 allows concrete to exhibit extended workability characteristics.
  • Due to its large scale of dosage, CHRYSO® Plast Omega 164 can create a varied range of concrete.
  • CHRYSO® Plast Omega 164 has a strong dispersing capacity on the fine elements of concrete, producing fluid concrete.
  • CHRYSO® Plast Omega 164 reduces the rate of bleeding in a concrete mix.
  • CHRYSO® Plast Omega 164 improves the cohesion and lowers the viscosity of a concrete mix. This results in an improved homogeneity, allowing for superior off-shutter finishes.
  • By reducing the need to add extra water, CHRYSO® Plast Omega 164 increases the durability of concrete.
  • CHRYSO® Plast Omega 164 is robust to differences in cement characteristics.
  • CHRYSO® Plast Omega 164 does not undermine the early age strength of concrete.
  • In common with all water reducing/plasticising admixtures, the use of CHRYSO® Plast Omega 164 reduces the overall cost of a cubic metre of concrete. This in turn, allows less cement to be used in order to achieve the same objective, resulting in a solution which is environmentally friendly.
