SikaPlast®-115

Mid-Range Water Reducing/Plasticising Concrete Admixture

SikaPlast®-115 is a liquid admixture for concrete which is used as a mid-range water reducer/plasticiser. It meets the requirement of BS EN 934 -2.

  • Mid-range water reductions resulting in higher strengths and densities
  • Flexible application as both WRA and HRWR
  • Less sensitive to variations in cement and aggregate types
  • Improved cohesion properties
 
  • Improved early and ultimate strengths
  • Improved rheology
  • Improved durability
  • Reduced segregation and bleeding
  • Reduced drying shrinkage
  • Reduced mix costs
* Compared to concrete without admixture
