ISOPLAST 131
Water Reducing and Retarding Concrete Admixture
ISOPLAST 131 is a chloride free water reducing admixture based on selected sugar-reduced lignosulphonates. It is supplied as a brown solution which instantly disappears in water.
ISOPLAST 131 disperses the fine particles in the concrete mix, enabling the water content of the concrete to perform more effectively and improving the consistency of the concrete. This produces higher levels of workability for the same water content, allowing benefits such as water reduction and increase strength to be taken.
Advantages
- Allows specific strength grades to be met at reduced cement content or increased workability. Water reduction significantly improves compressive strength at all ages and enhances durability through the production of low permeability concrete.
- Minimizes the risk of segregation and bleeding and helps in the production of a dense, close textures surface, improving durability. Chloride free, safe for use in pre-stressed and reinforces concrete.

Dosage
Optimum dosage of ISOPLAST 131 should be determined in trial mixes. The recommended dosage is from 0.5% to 1.0% of cement weight. ISOPLAST 131 is compatible with all Portland cement including SRC.
